SmashBack spent his teenage years in North London training his ears to the evolving sounds of Jungle and House. His love for underground music led to further training in the art of music production, working various jobs to buy music equipment for his bedroom studio. It wasn't until he left school when he got into DJ'n and started a weekly residency at The Green Man pub in London's West End. After this, he studied Music Techology at Uni & spent one of his summer breaks working for the now defunct techno institute Prime Distribution in West London. Whilst at Uni, he co-ran the legendary BULLDOZER night in the seaside town of Scarborough. At the BULLDOZER night SmashBack introduced the North East coast to Grime, Electro & Booty Bass. After moving to Manchester, SmashBack got involved with the beginning stages of the ELECTRODE night. It was this that introduced him to the residents of ALIEN RADIO, who asked him to hop aboard and help co-run their night. ELECTRODE now fills the monthly slot that ALIEN RADIO used to grace. SmashBack co-runs the Bass Gun record label with Paul Blackford, releasing quality bass-heavy electro. He has also finished a new album 'City Parks', OUT NOW.

SPRING NEWS

Been a bit off-the-map recently due to work commitments but just thought i'd mention a few things what are happening on the music front.

Good news - Brick Shithouse has just infiltrated juno download and can be yours for a few digital coins, as can the other spiffing tunes and remixes on the same release. I thought i'd don my Sunday best for the artwork and strike a few poses ;)



Here's the link for buying the E.P (it's called 'Get Bitch or Try Dying'):

Me & Glover's E.P on Data-Trace will be out soon enough....it still features 'Mission to Irlam' and 'Ivo Shandor' from myself, as well as a wicked, deep electro track from Glover called 'Typhon' and something else what Glover is working on.

Also worth mentioning is the BLUE vinyl/CD/digital release on Balkan Vinyl, coming out very soon. The vinyl features original tracks from DIGITONAL, THE DOUBTFUL GUEST, ARDISSON and EGEBAMYASI and the CD + digi release features remixes from SmashBack (me, init), Posthuman and Hatchback.


Last but not least, there's a couple of gigs that i'm playing in May:

May 2nd 2010 - Subvert - Sheffield - BBQ Special
May 14th 2010 - Data-Trace Future Everything Party - Manchester
