Band Members: Craig Morrison & Graeme Reedie
Influences: Silicone Soul are the internationally respected and much-loved DJ & production duo Craig Morrison and Graeme Reedie. Pioneering quality underground house and techno for the past decade they have proven to be one of the most enduring acts on their home label, Soma Records. They are synonymous with dancefloor destruction and guest constantly around the globe. They have held residencies at La Terrrazza (Barcelona), Circo Loco
(DC10, Ibiza), The Arches and at The Sub Club (Glasgow) and now the legendary Café d’Anvers (Antwerp).
Equally so the duo are renowned for their production skills, with an idiosyncratic take on the house/techno sound that continues to evolve - deep, psychedelic, melancholic, broodingly emotive electronic music.
The worldwide chart-busting single, Right On, Right On! now regarded a house classic, gained them full international recognition in 2001 and catapulted them in to dance music’s A-list and into the conscious of the mainstream. Craig and Graeme however held true to their underground roots, refused to compromise their ideology and stuck a firm two fingers up to the commercial house music scene, even refusing to appear on
Top Of The Pops (BBC1).
It is this attitude along with an insatiable appetite for new sounds and ideas -always searching for the challenging, never submissing to the obvious - that keeps them firmly at the cutting edge of underground electronic music.
They have produced three critically acclaimed albums of sublime deep house, techno and electronica all on Soma Records…
A Soul Thing (2000), Staring Into Space (2005) and Save Our Souls (2006).
Since the release of Save Our Souls, in late 2006 and in-between constant touring, they have focused attentions on their Darkroom Dubs label. Now widely regarded as one of the UK’s most forward thinking house labels. Gaining high profile fans along the way, from Andrew Weatherall and Laurent Garnier to John Digweed and Ewan Pearson.
The guys are now back in the studio working on their fourth album, which will be due in the autumn of 2008. This will be a landmark year for Silicone Soul as it also marks their tenth anniversary, so expect some fresh surprises in the year to come. Look out too for the Darkroom Dubs Mixes of Save Our Souls and the remix of Slam’s Staccato Rave - both out on Soma Records in March 2008.
