Moving to London from small town Ireland was the turning point that sparked the next phase in Tape Twelve’s musical shift. Being inspired by the London underground techno and electro scene in all its glory, his style quickly morphed into a tenacious and more vigourous version of its former self.

Making hard-hitting techno and electro that grips and ravages the dance floor. He has had releases on several labels, presented various radio shows, runs his own club night, and plays regular live shows around London and Ireland.

Tape Twelve started his music career in the early 2000’s, honing his craft of all things electronic. Maneuvering through genres, like trance, house, breaks, techno, electro, while acquiring inspiration and influence from his heroes, that has seen him arrive at a corner of dance music that he feels most comfortable and fulfilled.

Harnessing the power of synthesizers, drum machines and other hardware live on stage, Tape Twelve’s live performances have been described as gritty, dense, and engrossing.

NOWTHEN played band circuits in Leeds and Liverpool including regular appearances at the world famous CAVERN CLUB before securing a residency at IBIZA ROCKS CLUB NME night in 2008. Throughout they supported the biggest up and coming names in the business.

Returning to Leeds for an adopted homecoming gig supporting in Alabama 3 to a sell out audience in the newly opened Leeds 02 Academy venue, NOWTHEN returned to Ibiza Mid 2009 to start work on their debut album. 

Due to setbacks with the original producer, NOWTHEN found themselves spending the year in Ibiza sleeping in cars, tents, squats, caves, generally re-establishing their contact with nature, mother earth, the universe and honing their sound. Following a series of critically acclaimed performances on the island the band came to the attention of island resident and top class producer Henry Sarmiento, who is currently working with some of the worlds most successful artists.

Having just released a live studio EP from Henry’s Sonic Vista Studios, the idea of this first offering is to show that unlike most of the artists currently around they are extensively a live experience and want to challenge the current status quo of what people desire from their listening experience.
