New LP Dirty North coming soon!

About Me


601 are long time collaborators Nat Slater & George Miller. Hailing from Harrogate, North Yorkshire, they create big brashy breaks with the emphasis on funk. As well as producing their own tunes, they also find time to run a label, Polar Red, with 7 releases so far, as well as present their weekly radio show 'Dirty North' on Breaksfm.com The last few years have seen them busier than ever, with releases and remixes for Polar Red, Hot To Trot, Waveshape, Epidemic & Ape, as well as appearances on Jay Cunning's Kiss100 Radio show and an exclusive 30 minute mix for Radio 1's Annie Nightgale, a set that showcased some of the tracks from the forthcoming album 'Dirty North'. The coming year will be another busy one for the boys, with a live show currently being rehearsed, as well as the completion of their album and a slew of remix work in the pipeline.
