Об исполнителе:
Scott Hallam started DJing late '89 in and around clubs in Manchester. Heavily influenced by the acid house scene along with the emerging styles from Belgium, Detroit, and Germany. It wasn't until 1993 that he started his production with a fairly basic setup: Ensoniq Mirage sampler, Boss DR-55 MK II drum machine and in December 1993 tracked down a much sought after Roland TB-303 all sync'd up to an Amiga A500 running Music X 2. 3 years of delving deeper into the production world and a lot more kit, he released an EP on his own label 'Axia Records' under the name Grey Matter in October 1996 which was well received by Dave Mothersole who reviewed it in Muzik magazine February 1997. Lost In Thought EP (Axia) New boy Scott Hallam with an ambitious five-tracker which veers from 150bpm acid techno and slo-mo hip hop breaks, right through to old school, bottom heavy warehouse grooves and Depeche Mode-meets-Juan Atkins purism. The real surprise, here, though, is how thoroughly listenable the whole thing is. Innovative, imaginative, and pretty bloody good. Branching out into electronica and dowmtempo chill out grooves he later released 3 albums between 2002 and 2003 (Sonic Textures, Thirty & Lost In Thoughts) After a break from production whilst DJing again with a residency at the Music Box in Manchester between 2005 and 2008 playing Hacienda Classics (as much acid house as possible) it wasn't until 2009 that he started up Axia as a digital output via Juno Download and to date has released 23 EPs and 4 Albums covering acid, techno, house, dub, electro, & chill out. Having had two of his remixes of Sterling Void & Paris Brightledge 'Let Loose The Light' released on Epoque Music it wasn't long before he was back in the studio to finish the latest album 'Viva Acid House' 10 tracks of 303 squelches as his passion for the silver box continues to shine.
