Content is the alter ego of london producer jesse rose. currently living in berlin, he’s made his name with releases on classic, dubsided and his own labels made to play, loungin’ and front room. 2006 is set to be his best year yet with two album releases of original productions, ‘more than one’ on front room (11 tracks featuring collaborations with some of the worlds hottest underground talents) and his second album ‘what do you do if i don’t’ on dubsided (a one hour mix of his own productions, including recent hit ‘your all over my head’). he’s also busy collaborating as induceve and izit. djing for 14 years, his first mix cd was released ‘98 under his ‘deeper sound of bristol’ moniker. his acclaimed productions include the massive ‘a-sided’ and he’s remixed the likes of layo & bushwacka, radioslave, riton vs heidi, jimpster and trevor loveys. he’s rapidly becoming one of europe’s most sought after djs with regular appearances at panorama bar, fabric, watergate, basics, the end and his own night ‘back to yours’ in london. catch him if you can!even under his content guise jesse still retains that dance floor off-key sound that has made him standout in clubland. the original features jesse’s signature jackin’ drums and squelches combined with deftly cut and looped samples as a female vocal is chopped into the mix to create a truly solid groove. the bleeps get nastier and out of nowhere the bassline is switched in true west london style. a dance floor moment that melts minds and moves hips. for the remix, will draws on his love of detroit’s soulful melodies and writes his own spaced out chord progression with a big fat pitch bend moment thrown in for good measure. a distinctly new school bassline and rolling, twisting percussion morph around the stereo spectrum and intertwine with heavily echoed melodic stabs. will saul is the dj, musician and producer behind simple records. last year he released his widely praised debut compilation ‘simple one’ . |
