The Gentleman Distortionist

Sophisticatedly Sadistic

About Me


Alter-ego of NickyB, defunct frontman of ex- oxford-based noisemakers: CentreNegative, and currently one-half of irratic sibling duo: !Mounted Insanity Cannon! ... Currently working on his debut album, tracks of which will soon be available to hear on his website and from MySpace.
Above is 'The Gentleman Distortionist' remix of 'Smilex - Kidz Klub 666', featured on their recent 'Smilex Vs. Oxford' album release.
"...The Gentleman Distortionist somehow manages to find a hands aloft, whistle crew pleaser in 16 second miniature Kidz Klub 666..."
- David Murphy (Oxfordbands.com)
"...others bludgeon the songs into their own image. Chief amongst these is The Gentleman Distortionist with his dissection of Kidz Klub 666..."
- Dale Kattack (Nightshift Feb2006)
"...For me the stand out tunes are the super charged mix from the Gentleman Distortionist, a drum driven electronica enhanced Evenings effort and the chirpy synthy Young Knives tune...."
- Mary Figgin (OpenView Feb2006)
