Influenced by artists such as Coil, Cabaret Voltaire, and Skinny Puppy, Textbeak started creating music in the late 80s with Todd Sines. Together, they worked on various projects and eventually formed B/Re (Body Release) with Titonton Duvante and Charles Noel. Textbeak (as his project Bath) later signed with Jevan Records (run by gothic band Lestat) and recorded with producer Kramer (Shimmy Disk). He has since released solo works under the name Textbeak on various labels.   

Textbeak has performed at many events nationally and internationally, opening for notable artists such as Modern English, Merzbow, Nitzer Ebb, The Legendary Pink Dots and Meat Beat Manifesto. He has also remixed tracks for various artists, including Architect (aka Daniel Myer of Haujobb), ∆AIMON, Blush Response and Bestial Mouths. His 2016 album, Sick For Songs A Season Eats on Cleopatra Records, featured collaborations with Mark Stewart (The Pop Group), John Fryer (This Mortal Coil) and more.  

His new album, ASEMIC MUSICK, is planned for release in late 2025 on the Industrial Detroit label and features collabs with Antoni Maiovvi (Ye Gods), Brood Faye, Other, Broken Nails, Gwendolyn Dot and more!

Combining traditional indie with elements of Funk, Grunge & Hip Hop, I Set The Sea On Fire are making a name for themselves as the next massive sound out of Sheffield. With 4 Part harmonies, a trumpet, trombone & flute alongside the traditional indie band the sound is hard to describe, but they've settled with comparing it to an off shore oil rig explosion, but with less screams and a lot more trumpet. Having shared the stage with bands such as Heaven 17, Buzzcocks & Dog Is Dead, the band are well known for their massive live shows which have been described as a “Powerfully energetic set which could get the dead dancing, but with the most beautiful harmonies Ive heard live in a long time”.
