A collaboration between The Setup and Alana Carrew-Stirrat.  Fresh-sounding, bouncy-bass music.  It's had support from some randoms at Bloc, some Austrian guys in Bacrelona, Radio 1's Ally McCrae and dancefloors across Edinburgh.  We like it, we hope you do to.

The Setup &amp; Bruno FK - Make Me

The Setup - Grindstone

Deep glitchy vibe on this one. The title refers to the time when we made it. Between us we had 3 weeks off so we could do some travelling (and go to Sonar). When we got back to Edinburgh we were hungry to make tunes and this track was the result of that first session. That said the track evolved over the following months into it's current form.

Part of the Save BBC Introducing In Scotland Album

The BBC are restructuring and are cutting a weekly 2 hour show every Sunday at midnight that showcases Scottish talent. This would be a huge loss for local musicians and listeners, and make it harder for Scottish artists to reach international audiences. We urge you to get involved by signing the online petition and downloading the compilation album released by ABAGA Records on December 19th (all proceeds go to the Drake Music Scotland charity).

DJ DD- Dubstep promo April 2010

I originally intended that this track be a work on with either Malky as The Setup or Mike as On The DL but somehow other projects kept coming up and I ended up doing the track myself.  It's not really very dancefloor but it's got a nice wee groove to it.

DD presents Compakt promo December 2010

Producer and DJ living in Edinburgh, UK.  

DJing wise I promote and am resident at  Dirt  a club night at Edinburgh's GRV, where we play techno/electro/dubstep/b-more/ghetto.  I also promote and am resident at Compakt at Cabaret Voltaire in Edinburgh, Compakt is all about the techno, tech-house and minimal recently I have supported Joey Beltram, Zombie Nation, Gary Beck and Dustin Zahn.   I am also resident at Cabaret Voltaire's Split and The Bongo Club's Jungle Dub - both immensely popular weekly parties.  I play a range of styles for example at Jungledub I'll either be playing dubstep or old school/ragga jungle.  Whereas at Compakt I'll be playing techno/tech-house/minimal.  I also have strong roots in hip hop, funk and disco and if you catch me in the right mood you'll here me break out the funky classics.  

In terms of production most of my output has been in the form of collaborations, mostly with Malcolm F Smith.  This combination has recently been going under the guise of The Setup for both our productions and live shows.  Malky and I like a lot of the same music so we are not really restrict by genres, suffice to say that it's always electronic, usually between 125 and 140 bpm and often involve synths, acid lines, drum breaks and 4-4 kicks.  See soundcloud.com/thesetup for further details. 

I am in the process of moving all my mixes to www.mixcloud.com/dd there is no upload limit there so there are already more of mixes there than there are here.  I'll always try and include a download link on that site in the comments.  I'm going to focus on using this site for productions and there for mixes.
