FAT TONY

Somewhere between DJ Screw and Bad Brains, De La Soul and Scritti Politti sits Houston’s native son, Fat Tony. A singular and experimentally-minded rap artist adept at both traditional regional styles and indie pop, hardcore thrash and melodic candy-painted bangers. He is punk in the platonic sense of the word: experimental and subversive, but also funny, whimsical, and virtuosic.

ZED BIAS

Dave Jones, better known as ZED BIAS, is a MOBO Nominated Music producer, arranger, remixer, guest lecturer, and DJ, based in Manchester, UK.
Bias’ releases, which explore a more experimental or progressive side of the 2 step garage sound (sometimes described as ‘dark-swing’) have been hailed as a crucial element in the establishment of Dubstep, as a definable sound or genre. He was one of the original resident DJ’s at the infamous club, FWD>>, the East London birthplace of Dubstep culture

PAUL WHITE

Paul White started as a beatmaker from South London whose sample-heavy approach draws from unlikely sources, including progressive and psychedelic rock and post-punk. He made his name over the previous decade by sculpting wonky, psychedelic hip hop mutations, working with everyone from UK favourite Jehst to wild Detroit based Anglophile rapper Danny Brown. He now writes, performs and produces his own take on psychedelic pop music. Since then he has been writing and producing for a number of high profile artists including singer and violinist Sudan Archives, and regular collaborator Danny Brown for his recent album 'uknowhatimsayin'.

LEOPARD ALE
