Manchester-based producer xxxy (born Rupert Taylor) is known for refining the propulsive, foot-forward sound of UK garage. Currently he's signed to various labels. Over the past year he has been quietly building a solid reputation with milestone releases on Infrasonics and Fortified Audio, as well as featuring on the seminal Fabric compilation "Elevator Music". With further releases set to come on labels such as Doc Daneeka's Ten Thousand Yen and Well Rounded, and a host of UK and European shows - it's little doubt that xxxy will leave a lasting impression on the UK underground.

He used to go by the name Forensix (mcr), or simply forensix. The "mcr" stood for Manchester, since there was already a dubstep artist by the name of Forensics on the scene.
A different artist using the name xxxy has released music through Iwithsiae Records.

Greg Feldwick is 23 years old and from Bath, UK. He makes noises as Slugabed. His first releases were on stuffrecords, Ramp Recordings and then, Planet Mu, but now he is signed to the mothership, Ninja Tune Records. His music is suffused with a unique mix of humour, next level production, dancefloor smarts and melancholic emotion.

Asked to explain "Time Team", Feldwick responds that "it's to do with deep feelings about mostly inexpressible things." It is indeed an album full of feeling and warmth and humor, a remarkable feat for a record composed mainly on synthesisers and drum machines. You will be hearing a lot more of Slugabed.
