About Me

Barry is the alter-ego of Neil Woolley. Barry has been writing breaks since the just after release of Propellerheads Rebirth software about 8 years ago and then took a larger step into proper sounding stuff when the far better 'Reason' was released. With influences from Plump Djs and Hybrid to Henryk Gorecki and Edward Elgar, Barry creates chunky beats that nearly always involve some kind of orchestration. Having completed a degree in electronic music, barry obviously listened to what was being said through horrendous hangovers and incessant nagging from housemates to stop playing the same loop over and over until he got what he wanted. Gigs are at present few and far between because that Woolley guy keeps using the combined body to work with C*Bob as part of The Sunshine Blues Band, but at least it keeps the pair of them out of trouble.
