Gary :



Glasgow-born Gary Beck has been producing his own enticing class of electronic music since early 2002. With a god-like tech set-up utilizing a number of keyboards, drum machines, hardware synths and software programs, Gary’s first release ‘Stick to the Reggae’ was quickly signed up by Philadelphia Dub House label ‘Worship Recordings’, home to artists such as Hakan Lidbo, Pete Moss. Since then Gary has refined his sound further and gone on to record for M_nus, Djinxx’s Mezzotinto, London’s Fine Art Recordings, Percy X’s Edit-Select and Perc Trax amongst others.



His tracks have received worldwide praise from the biggest names in house and techno, from Richie Hawtin and James Holden to Laurent Garnier, Sven Vath, and Yousef. His DJ and live sets are a breed apart, fusing bass driven techno with quirky, experimental house to rapturous effect. With further remixes, DJ dates and releases on the horizon for labels such as M_nus, Somabeta and Edit-Select, 2009 is set to be a huge year for Gary. Aside from his recordings under his own moniker Gary also produces under the pseudonym ‘Ruskin Franks’ to set free the more down-tempo, experimental side of his music.

HARVEY MCKAY BIOGRAPHY



Harvey McKay is one of a school of new young artists to come out from Glasgow’s thriving underground club circuit. Music runs through Harvey’s blood. With a drummer for a father he was constantly exposed to rhythm even in his days in the womb and eventually began his own exploits in primary school at the age of 10. While other kids were busy learning Maths and English, Harvey was cutting about with all the wrong crowds and learning how to mix on his first decks. It eventually paid off when he earned his first residency in Tin Pin Alley at the less-than-legal age of 16. Since then his DJing career has been on the up, touring with Smirnoff Ice and M8 Magazine (now Tilllate.com) before he finally made the decision to turn his ear to production.
