Leeds based electronic artists??? Any ideas?

**kai** · 08-08-2006, 02:01 PM

Stumped - was gonna suggest Johny Sideways and the Desert Storm lads Pseudonym and Dr Weevil but if they want more minimal stuff then kinda rules out the hardtek!

**RDR** · 08-08-2006, 02:14 PM

try missperception... more on the detroit tip, but shes got some real nice tunes and plays live too,...

ill do a bit of a live set tonight and post it up for thee.. it might be what they're looking for... not hardtek, funky, chunky (I hope :lol:)

chris.

Sorry I keep recommending 2020 Vision-related stuff... Ralph Lawson is the Kevin Bacon of the Leeds house scene - everything can be linked to him somehow! But have you come across a DJ called Simon Baker?

Infant Records is Simon's label (I wish it didn't have a link to Lawson, but it does)... it's quite trendy schminimal stuff (still quite soulful, mind) so might do well with R1 peeps.

And don't forget the Utah Saints!!

enjoying that a lot... sounds a bit like Jackson & His Computer Band, only more fluid. Minimal, experimental, and he's not (we hope) a mate of Ralph Lawson!
