Merlin Sunley 24 a.k.a Kryptix a.k.a The Audio Junta, has been producing electronic music of all styles since November 1999, he started experimenting with Fruityloops making 4x4 beats inspired by the sounds of Sasha & Digweed, Timo Maas, Leftfield, Underworld et al. Drum 'n' Bass had planted it's seed 5 years before at a friends house, the friend had put on a Randall mix-tape and Merlin heard the sound of Adam F's seminal 'Circles' but being a youngster in small town West Wales these tantalising glimpses into Jungle/Drum 'n' Bass were few and far between. it was only a matter of time, his taste for searching out the music took over and fuelled by the internet he started to get into the tech'd up beats of Ed Rush, Optical, Nico, Trace, and Dom & Roland.
Inspired by their visions of futuristic urban dystopia he started trying to create his own take on the sound which combines the tripped out atmospherics and gnarly basslines of techstep, with the cinematic melodies and razor sharp drum edits inspired by Risc Vs. Reward era Photek or Source Direct. Mix that with near obsessive attention to detail and a love for epic movie scores and you get the Kryptix sound.
Currently residing in the beautiful city of Bristol, he's been firmly rooted in the lab and is preparing to unleash a totally new sound experience on the unsuspecting public. Under a new combined moniker - TheAudioJunta - and debuting in the clubs early 2009, this set runs the whole gamut of styles from sick as fuck Dubstep, thru glitched out Techno, all the way to his trademark Drum 'n' Bass carnage.
THIS SHIT HAS TO BE SEEN TO BE BELIEVED!!
