The night that Neo fell in love with speed garage with its pounding shuffly beats and warping and dirty basslines was a night back in 1998 when he witnessed Dave Armstrong and Norrie Taylor (Prime & Seven) play a tag set, totally destroying the dancefloor with basslines. He knew at that moment that he wanted to be a part of the scene on the other side of the turntables, packing dancefloors, interacting and hyping up the crowd into a frenzy. Intrigued by this original 'new' sound, Neo and a couple of friends decided to get a pair of old turntables and a 2 ch. mixer with no eq. and started playing around with a few different genres including speed garage, house, breaks, hip-hop, hardhouse and trance.
Most of Neo's first gigs were playing up and down Vancouver Island at raves, house parties and nightclubs such as Hush, Sweetwaters and The Press Room to name a few. Through his career Neo has found himself dj'ing as far as clubs in Colorado and Las Vegas, Full Moon parties in Thailand and jungle parties in Cambodia.

For several years (00-03) he was throwing renegade parties and the occasional club night under the names Vintage Prod. and DavisHouse Prod. 
Since his premier release "Destination EP" debuted on Atomic Zoo Recordings (Calgary) in 2010 Neo has worked with several other labels including Backzide Records (San Francisco), Bass Hound Records (Seattle), Breakz R Boss (Calgary) and Bass Bong Records (Vancouver). Currently he is working on several projects for D-Blok Studios (Duncan, BC.), Atomic Zoo, Bass Bong and most recently Urban Sprawl Records (Sheffield, UK). Not only does Neo specialize in deep rollin' n warpin' basslines, he is also fond to breaks, garage, 2-step, 4x4, bassline house and jackin' house. He also produces under the aliases of 'Totally' and 'Funk'n Ruff' with fellow Canadian bad bwoy Brent 'd-Set' Kral. Together they produce speed garage, bassline house and bassline breaks.

Now with over 23 years of bassline knowledge behind him, come out and witness Neo with his extreme energy and stage presence animating dancefloors all across the Western Continent! He'll be sure to make you move your body all night long to his bass heavy sets tuned to the funky sounds of jackin house, 2-step, breaks and garage and the dirty whompy bassline driven beats of speed garage, bassline and 4x4 !

Full Bio (470 Words):

The formation of More Than Mayhem is the tale of seasoned musicians trying something fresh. Veteran Victoria-based singer songwriter Nick Taylor had a catalogue of music both new and old, and figured it was time to put together his ideal band to perform it. Taylor was previously a member of Step Back Dave, a reggae-rock band that toured Western Canada and was crowned the Zone 91.3’s “Band of the Month”, a sought-after achievement for Victoria acts.

With SBD broken up for three years, Taylor wrangled up some familiar friends: Shane Soderberg (drums), Zack Knippel (bass), and Nev Gibson (sax) “We

have all known each other for a number of years, being in the Victoria music scene together in other bands,” says Taylor of his band-mates. “We always came out to support one another whenever we all had a gig and in turn became good friends.” Knippel plays with Victoria ska group, SweetLeaf, and the other two are current members of reggae-punk band Hillside Hooligans, and previous to that One Drop. “When [we] played for the first time together it was clear we had something truly great.”

The formation of the group also marked a change in Taylor’s lifestyle. After a two-month stay in rehab, Taylor is now completely sober for the first time in over a decade. Taylor describes his early lyrical content as “fairly shallow”, peppered with references to drug, alcohol and simple island activities like camping. ”I have written over a dozen new songs [since going sober] and am finding an unprecedented level of depth and emotion to my writing,” says Taylor. “Wow, did that ever sound pretentious,” he adds with a laugh.

Taylor describes More Than Mayhem’s sound as a “mash-up,” name-checking Ben Harper, The Clash, Tom Petty, and Sublime as some of his musical idols. He also lays out the group’s genre influences as funk, jazz, soul. R&B, hip-hop, and punk. “And what kind of Victoria band would be without a handful of ska tunes,” adds Taylor, referencing Victoria’s legendary scene.

These aforementioned influences all coalesce seamlessly on stage. Taylor’s raspy crooning and staccato spitting hints at the hip-hop and soul vibes, while the rhythm section of Knippel and Soderberg lock into routinely slinky grooves. Gibson caps it all off with emotive and sultry sax that evokes jazz and Caribbean flavours. Put in simpler terms: it sounds like Morning Mayhem.

With this newfound musical rebirth, Taylor has high aspirations for MTM. “I would love to see MTM do what I tried to make happen for STB years ago,” explains Taylor, citing radio airplay, festival appearances, and building army of passionate fans as some of his ambitions.

“I am so stoked to be working with these guys; they are all extremely motivated talented musicians and I think with the right people behind us, we can achieve these goals.”
