Brawther

Born in Paris, now living in Leeds and raised on house – that's just about all Brawther wants to tell you. You'll have to glean anything else you need to know from his music. So far it has been only selectively released into the wider world, but on esteemed labels like secretsundaze and My Love Is Underground. It varies from pad-laced daydreams to tough edged 4/4 beats, always displaying such true school ideals that it wasn't long before he became a close friend and protégé of US pioneer Chez Damier.

As a DJ he is as comfortable playing Circo Loco at DC-10 as he is at fabric, Panorama Bar or Glastonbury, and so too does Leeds institution Back to Basics come calling for his services on a regular basis. Brawther is also the man behind record label and production partnership Dungeon Meat, a like-minded collaboration with Tristan da Cunha. Very much prising quality over quantity, Brawther knows just when to release his records into the wider world. When he does, it seems the world takes note.
