About Me


Welcome to the myspace page of Retronomous (real name Tom Bullock). nearly 22, born in St Albans, grown up in Macclesfield, now living in Manchester while at uni! I'm studying history, now in my final year. To be honest if I'd known how much I'd enjoy producing music theres no way I'd have chosen it, but now its nearly finished I might as well get it over with! So in my free time (a fair bit to be honest) I work on these crazy tunes.

I also produce a UK hiphop act, Narkotik + Dr Beats CHECK THEM OUT!

Back to me anyway, the name came from the fact that I am, as of now fairly anonomous, and well... my beats usually end up pretty retro sounding due to me being heavily influenced by old skool computer game music (dont ask!) so yes... its pretty nonsensical but will do for now.

I've been tinkering with music production on and off since my high school years, everything I've learnt has been through experimentation. I passed all the possible keyboard exams during my early highschool years and since had just been playing my synth every now and then for fun.

I've recently teamed up with an unemployed guitarist who is prepared to let me sample some crazy riffs for my beats! hence the strange, multi-genre style that I now seem to create. My dream would be to produce music for a living, maybe one day this can happen, heres hoping anyway.

Hope you enjoy my tracks, and feedback, good or bad is appreciated.

Peace.

the time has come!

Right, the time has come to send off some demo's and to try and get signed! Also, radio 1 are going to be the lucky recipients of "some things change II".  If anything comes of this i'll be very ...
