Introducing : Damu


He's already had a feature over at Hedmuk but here's another one for you! At the moment he's in an unknown location mountain climbing but hopefully there's internet wherever he is. Not to be confused with Damu The Fudgemunk (if you don't know find out!) Damu is a 21 year old Funky producer from Manchester. He's only been at it since the beginning on 2009 but who would have known! Formerly a producer of jungle he's found his home at the slower house bpm allowing him more space to play with rhythm and percussion. Having played piano from the tender ago of 6 as well as guitar, glock, bongoes, and violin (he even had dreams of singing in the West end), you can tell his musical background aided his production. He said he's only been producing seriously for 6 months and already after such a short time he's got EP's forthcoming on Local Action, Silverback records (his is coming after Nzuguzunguzu!) and a possible 12" on Swing and Skip Audio so keep your eyes peeled and ears open! With hopes for releases on Night Slugs and Hyperdub his ambitions don't stop there as he hopes to climb the seven summits as long as Zomby doesn't kill him first! For any dance music fan his summer synths and futuristic 8bit bleeps are sure to get you moving.

Shout outs to his friends and fellow producers - Brey, Young Montana ,Kaiser as well as Local Action & Silver back.
