Since teaming up in 2010, Bristol-based drum ’n’ bass duo Chromatic – real names Leon Bailey and Joe Rossitter – have released music on seminal labels including Playaz, Innerground, V Recordings, Crucast, CIA, Commercial Suicide, Fokuz, Formation Records, Utopia Music and Lossless Music.

The pair’s refusal to conform to one specific style of DnB has resulted in dozens of plays on BBC Radio 1 and Kiss FM, plus DJ support from the scene’s most respected selectors including Roni Size, DJ Hype, DJ Marky, LTJ Bukem, Rene LaVice, Kanine, London Elektricity and more.

Chromatic have remixed artists including DJ Fresh, MC $pyda and E-Z Rollers. The pair’s track ‘Sunrise’, produced for Bru-C’s album ‘Original ‘Sounds’, has achieved over five million Spotify plays, while their unofficial remix of Pharoahe Monch’s ‘Simon Says’ continues to be a secret weapon for countless DJs.

Away from the studio, Chromatic are also seasoned DJs, playing at events such as DJ Marky & Friends at Fabric and Detonate Festival, as well as bookings abroad in Czech Republic and New Zealand.

New album, The Love Still Held Me Near - available now on Still Records.

Bon Iver is an art project based in Wisconsin.
