About Me

There is more music by Chimpy available on virb.com
I have a dream.
But it’s kind of embarrassing, envolves a swimming pool filled with jelly and isn’t really relevant. I’m a Producer/Drummer/DJ. This page is dedicated to the music I’m making under my own name. Sometimes other people help, other times they hinder. I make music that’s loosly based around hip hop, breakbeat and downbeat. I try to avoid sampling for anything bigger than a single hit.
Other Projects
I’m also working on a hip hop/funk project called Anomaly .Never content with working on one thing at a time, I’m also working on a dubstep-inspired project called Primoid Lab with my brother. We’ve just started gigging, playing live production sets using keyboards, PlayStation controllers and more. Next on the agenda is Amsterdam.
On top of that I sometimes collaborate with MC Days (who is also part of Anomaly) and The Rat .Back in the day I used to drum for Much Obliged , but that’s another story...

Best When You Don't Try
