Electronica Tony Thorpe
Moody Boyz - Free.

Tony Thorpe aka the Moody Boyz deserves the title of living legend more than most: the South Londoner has been at the heart of the most interesting developments in underground music for over three decades now, yet never lost his freshness or enthusiasm for the new. From the postpunk days, when his band 400 Blows slammed together funk, dub, disco and DIY attitude, he's continued experimenting through the acid house days, through connections with the Boys Own crew, The KLF (he manned the mixing desk for their biggest records) and William Orbit (on whose Guerilla label the Moody Boyz album 'Product of the Environment' came out), right through to the (post)dubstep era where his Studio Rockers label and his own remixes for the likes of Amy Winehouse, Erykah Badu Lee Scratch Perry kept bassbins shaking as intensely as ever.
