• Coldcut

  To describe the music of Coldcut is a huge challenge. This challenge is due to the fact that they have been here, there and everywhere in their thirty year career, becoming masters of dance music and DJ culture. The duo, consisting of Jonathon Moore and Matt Black are credited with creating the first sample-built track in 1987. Their reworking of George Gershwin’s ‘Autumn Leaves’ perhaps started the easy listening/chill-out movement. Together, they have created the label Ninja Tune, who have gained many diverse acts on their roster, ranging from Roots Manuva to Mr Scruff and the funk/soul collective The Heavy. Today, they continue to release cutting-edge music proving they are still at the forefront, constantly pushing to evolve and develop the music scene in which they thrive in.

  Their last full-length release (2006’s Sound Mirror), showed the diversity that Coldcut can offer. ‘True Skool’ featured Roots Manuva on vocals and is a bouncing and colourful track of hop-hip full of summer vibes. “Walk a Mile in My Shoes’ incorporates the soulful talent of Robert Owens and is a swinging slab of house. Live, Coldcut have also pioneered Vjing, creating a show that is visually astounding, incorporating their eclectic music into a visual narrative. The duo are constantly exciting and constantly developing the world of electronic music, with any live performance undoubtedly bringing something new to the table. Or at the least an incredibly diverse set that would appease everyone in the audience, and possibly even your Nan.
