Kinrade is a DJ & a producer from the Lake District.
After starting out, playing Progressive Records in the early 90’s, it wasn’t until 2009 when Kinrade got into producing and his sound was noticed early on by iDJ magazine which saw Kinrade appearing in their Raw Talent feature for both a DJ Mix & Production in consecutive months.
His first release being the “Grave Robber EP”, back in 2010, hit the stores courtesy of Berlin based ‘Bad Label Lahorn’ which was run by the late LB Bad who sadly passed in 2021. This was soon followed by a string of releases on the established label Bigger Deer Recordings which saw Kinrade receive support from the likes of Slam, Reset Robot and Nick Warren, establishing himself amongst other artists releasing on the Deer imprint including Funk D’Void, Paul Loraine and Nathan Coles.
Since then Kinrade has toughened up his sound  and has released on labels such as Gain Records, Society Music Recordings, Underdub Records, Bubblejam Records, UNO. Records and most recently The Audiobloc as well as a number of EPs on the Berlin techno power house Martin Book’s label Carti Records.
In 2021 Kinrade created a new alias to allow the expression of a more ambient & meaningful sound with Small Town Twiin releasing a debut album and a remix package, which saw the likes of Boxia, Robots With No Soul, Feint Young Son and Lewis Ryder provide a diverse spectrum of sound.
