'The Boardroom' is a studio where Producers,DJs, and Musicians collaborate.
The core of this collective is made up of executives and their respective artist names.
Steve Boardman co-produces with Rad Rice (Radical Majik), James Moss (E.S.C.), Dave Congreve (Con/Man), Tim Fairplay (Bored Play) plus various occasionals, Jon Vic (Board & Victorville) & Sidney Le Sarge (Le Sarge en Board).
When they all perform together they are called 'Boardroom live' (guitar, bass, drum-machines, decks & effects, vocals, synths and percussion).
They have performed at London's Fabric, Berlin's Panoramabar, Frankfurt's Robert Johnson and Copnhagen's Culturbox.
The Boardroom Centre of Operations is located within Andrew Weatherall's Rotters Golf Club Studios in Shoreditch.
Boardroom Artists have released one eight-track Album on Rotters Golf Club (RGCCD016), "Andrew Weatherall Vs The Boardroom", a collection of three Boardroom Artists tracks and their Weatherall remixes plus Boardroom Artists remixes of two Two Lone Swordsmen tunes.
The Press have been very kind in their admiration of the recording, rating it Album Of The Month in IDJ's Players Of The Year 2008 issue. Following this, The Boardroom was one of only five collectives featured in Mixmag's 'dance music collectives' article in their February issue, alongside Norman Cook's "Brighton Port Authority" as one of "the new supergroups".
Since April '07, The Boardroom have promoted regular events with guests including Andrew Weatherall, Craig Richards, Keith Tenniswood & Rob Mello. Since January 09, The Boardroom has hosted monthly sessions (The Agenda) @ East Village - future guest DJs include Justin Robertson, Leftfield’s Paul Daley and The Orb’s Alex Patterson.
Weatherall has co-written and recorded his debut solo work 'The Bullet-Catcher's Apprentice' and forthcoming album, 'Pox on The Pioneers', as well as remixing Primal Scream, David Holmes, Siouxsie Sioux, V.V. Brown, Manic Street Preachers, Black Lips & Fuck Buttons in The Boardroom with an executive.
The 2nd Volume of "Andrew Weatherall Vs The Boardroom", including new Boardroom Artists Tracks and their Weatherall remixes plus Boardroom Artists remixes of tracks from 'Pox on The Pioneers', is finished and scheduled for release.

Rad Rice @ Checkpoint Charlie
Currently we have the following artists on our roster:
Board & Victorville
Jon (Vick)torville co-produced the dutch smash 'Voodoz/Acid punch'. He then quit his job with Locked on records. He arrived in the Boardroom with the slamming numbers 'Chum' and 'Disciple' already in his briefcase. Hired on the spot.
Bored & Lazy
Pete Laz(onb)y mastered the idle management method during a seven year hiatus in New Orleans. Known for the mid nineties classics 'Sacred Cycles' and 'Wavespeech', he was headhunted for the Boardroom by experts in the art of getting it to mean something.
Radicak Maji[k]
Long time Techno general Rad Rice fought in the acid house trenches of 88. His strategic knowledge was needed to combat forces intent on making the party stop. After much structured debate of rAvEmEnT, he agreed on an executive position..
E.S.C
Techno wizzardry was needed for Live and studio weirdness. Timing, and technical ability to create structure from Chaos. James Moss of RaceTrax, 3 Decks, 909, and FX ,invested heavily and has become a leading executive of all Boardroom meetings.
ConMan
Minimal in approach but futuristic by design . Dave Congreve brings the 1950's optimism to our future. Repeat Repeat, and redo it again, only better. This forward thinking techno world will take our strategy to a better place.
Le Sarge en Board
Sidney Le Sarge, the dub electro techno DJ linchpin, he is the conection needed to create the convergence that is The Boardroom. Without his cross style referencing there would be no collaboration.
