About Me

Music Production

Hit By A Rock is a record producer/remixer, based in London, UK. Currently obsessed with the spooky, bass-heavy sounds of Dubstep , his most notable recent productions have been:

    A remix of " Love Lies " , a song by Mercury Prize-nominated artist Susheela Raman, from her new CD, "33 1/3" . The remix is due to be released on vinyl by Redvolume on August 6, 2007.A contest-winning remix of " Lost " , a song by US rock band Elyzium." Hungry " , a tune featuring Gila on vocals, which has been picked up my many Dubstep DJs and included in many mixes and radio-shows.

Also…

Using the fiendishly clever alias of "Jim" , Hit By A Rock also plays bass, noises and a springy ashtray for the band Psapp , a pair of vaguely-humanoid woollen robots signed to Domino Records, and well known for providing the theme music to Grey's Anatomy.

Back…

In previous incarnations as Sugardog , Khao and SA , Hit By A Rock has produced records and remixes for William Orbit's Guerilla Records , Studio K7! , Genesis P. Orridge's Temple Records , Music Concrete , LAZY and Lucky Number Music .
