THIS ( AWAX MYSPACE PAGE ) IS MAINTAINED & MANNED BY ( URBCOM RECORDS ) DISPLAY DISOBEY!AWAX is an electronic music project signed to the URBCOM record label. . Starting life on the London's electronic scene AWAX was formed in 2002 formerly known as A.W.A.C.S With the First ever live appearance at The Octopus Studios (Octopad) in Central-London. Once a 3 piece AWAX is now fronted and run by originator, programmer and co-founder of the URBCOM label [Dave Escott] with floating and guest members for live drums/percussion (Ross Diamond) and various vocalists. As with most exciting new music these days , the buzz over AWAX has come about as a result of word of mouth in the electronic arena, rather than the exposure in the national media which has to be a resounding recommendation in itself. Inexplicably dark and cultish with massive crossover appeal AWAX has come to be known to a wider audience in the last couple of years , initially through his production and collaboration work with Co-label artist JERICO ONE Aka J. Hookens
More recently Awax has been setting the electro-industrial underground alight with his uber-electro breakcore club-hit 'Statica' and his appearance on the current URBCOM artist compilation RECREATION X -V3 , whilst also building an increasing new fan base via his air play on the pirate-college radio airwaves for his emotively new take on the industrial dance music scene. Sound wise AWAX explores the line between electro/hip hop/drum and bass grooves and leftfield atmospheric splatterbeats culminating in gritty broken slabs of sound & overlaid by flowing landscapes of multi-layered sonic textures. ''Intransigent' provides a mish-mash of the all of this then adds suspense with sky ripping showers of sound whilst expanding on all the imagery and filmic qualities displayed in passed work with Industrial/Experimental outfit URBANITE. Current projects include the co - writing/production of th soundtrack on Hussein Chalayans film 'Absent Presence' starring Tilda Swinton [Constantine/Narnia] and his work with electronic-pop act INTERCITY3 ....................
