Leon Haxby (b. 1993) is a Composer, Producer, DJ and teacher based in Cambridge. He has always been fascinated with the effect of quotation and re-contextualisation in music, and is now pursuing this field of study both in composition and through his academic research on 'Music’s Uncanny Valley'.

Leon began composition lessons with Darren Bloom at Forest School in London and was awarded a scholarship to the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, followed by a place at the Conservatorium van Amsterdam where he completed his Masters in Composition in 2019. His compositions have been featured at world-famous festivals including the String Quartet Biennale Amsterdam and TROMP Percussion Festival, and at venues such as Kings Place and Muziekgebouw aan 't IJ, as well as others throughout Europe, North America and South Africa.

In 2020 Leon launched ‘Delian Sound’. Under this alias he DJ's and produces Garage and Jungle featuring samples from Delia Derbyshire and her contemporaries at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
