Artwork

Artwork creates music that feels like a guided tour through the last thirty years of London's underground. It is characterized by a deep, physical respect for the low end, inherited from his roots in the early dubstep scene, but polished with a house producer's sense of momentum and groove. The sound is warm and tactile, often utilizing analog synths and classic drum machine patterns that give the tracks a timeless, lived-in quality.

What sets him apart is his versatility and sense of humor. He can pivot from the dark, skeletal structures of early garage to the bright, acid-soaked euphoria of peak-time disco without losing his sonic identity. There is a specific 'swing' to his percussion that feels human and loose, avoiding the sterile grid-locked feel of much modern electronic music. It is music made by someone who has spent thousands of hours behind a DJ booth.

Start with 'Let Go of This Acid' for a perfect introduction to his ability to modernize classic rave tropes. If you want to hear his foundational influence on the UK sound, dive into the 'Red EP' to hear the dark, minimal roots of what would eventually become dubstep.
