Chimpo has been djing since he was a young chimp. He was a bad boy jungle DJ at 13 even though he was on a pair of
soundlab belt drives that were falling apart. Since he was the age of 16, hes been knocking out killer hip hop, jungle, garage,
grime and soul. A couple years ago he had a go at making a dubstep track; this track 'Kryptonite' would be his first solo
release and would be the first of a string of epic releases such as 'Dead', 'Lock Off' and 'Ruffest Tuffest'.
He has recently been working closely with Zed Bias and MRK1 and has forthcoming tracks on both of their labels.

Watch out for the forthcoming album with MRK1, entitled Totally Unauthorized featuring completely illegal remixes of Lil
Wayne, The Game, UGK and many more.
There’s a lot of talent in Manchester that tends to get overlooked, but it’s a testament to the city’s apparently inherent
passion for music that this acts less as a barrier than as a hurdle that needs to be crossed at its highest point. Biome is a
producer representative of this approach in that there is nothing rushed about his work and he only seems happy if what
people are hearing from is something that he can call fully-formed. After first breaking into dubstep with the sort of big kicks
and dark mid-range found on tunes like 'Sonic' he has honed his sound to something genuinely original and he’s now reaping
the rewards of his patience and getting regular plays from some of the biggest names on the circuit. By considering the
importance of the mid-range of a tune alongside the bassline and still keeping in mind the idea of space, Biome builds that
ever-elusive sense of darkness into his beats whilst maintaining the energy within them that is necessary to get people
moving on a dancefloor. « hide |
