Dj, Producer, Label owner. Andy Riley has been busy over the last 30 odd years. His productions as one half of Inland Knights, as well as various solo outings under his Toka Project guise, have ensured that he has remained a prominent fixture both from behind the decks and on wax.
After a few years serving his apprenticeship as an in-demand local Dj in and around Nottinghamshire UK, Andy’s inevitable step into production started in earnest with fellow Dj Steve Walker. 
Toka Project was born with the release of Swungbeats ‘King Sized Blue’Ep in early 1995. Originally a collaboration with Walker, all early output was released on Nottingham’s ‘Strictly 4 Groovers’ label, now better known as DiY Discs. Andy and Steve went on to remix a number of artists on the labels roster at the time, notably Gibby Music of Crash Records fame and Fred Everything amongst others. By 1998 Toka Project productions were in full flow and in the same year they released the much acclaimed ‘Be Free’ Ep for Chicago’s legendary Guidance Records, the title track also appeared on Guidance’s’ High Fidelity House Imprint Vol 2’. These two releases helped to push the Toka Project brand abroad and in 1999 Andy embarked on a three-month tour of the U.S and Canada with Andy Macari and Jay Cowley, stopping off in New York, LA, San Francisco, Phoenix, Philly, Tampa, Seattle, and Washington D.C amongst other places, and Montreal, Vancouver ,Whistler and Victoria in Canada. Ep’s and remixes on top labels such as Transport, Silver Network, So Sound, Amenti, Robsoul and Tango were to follow, all released to critical acclaim globally.
Over the course of the 90’s, Riley had been DJ’ing with Smokescreen,the legendary UK Sound System reponsible for throwing notorious free parties acroos the UK counties and beyond,by 1998 he had started writing tracks with fellow Smokescreen DJ Laurence Ritchie. As Inland Knights Laurence and Andy undertook a hectic production schedule to write tracks for Drop Music, Laurence’s fledgling House label. Drop Music has gone on to become one of the most highly regarded House labels in recent times. Inland Knights have become one of the most prolific and respected production outfits in the House community, carving a distinctive and unique House sound, and regularly taking on remix and Ep duties for fellow labels and producers, not to mention a Dj schedule which takes them further and further afield as their reputation grows. Bookings have included slots at UK clubbing institutions such as Fabric, The End, The Egg, Turnmills, Shindig, Back 2 Basics,Chibuku Shake Shake, Ministry Of Sound, Cargo, déjà vu,The Arches and The Sub Club in Scotland, as well as smaller more intimate venues nationwide. Countless international trips have seen them tour the Globe. Release highlights include the ‘Mohammed Ali’ remix for Faithless on Cheeky Records, CD compilations, Ep's and remixes for NRK, Om Records, 2020 Vision, Amenti Etc and Inland Knights first full length album entitled ‘Creative Spaces’.  More recently Inland Knights have released an album celebrating 10 years of Drop Music entitled ‘Dust till Dawn’ as well as the Retrospective ‘Inland Bytes’, a look back at Inland Knights career so far.
Currently, as well as remix and production commitments, Riley maintains a busy international Dj ‘ing schedule, and can be found most weekends playing up and down the UK and Europe, as well as regular visits to the U.S, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa playing both as one half of Inland Knights, and solo under his own name.
Andy has recently released several solo Ep’s for the first time under his own name: ‘Cant Contain This Ep’ on Frosted Recordings, ‘Slipmode Ep’ on Soul Fuel, ‘Somthin4theweekend Ep’ on Odour Recordings and two Ep’s on his own imprint, Borrowed. As of 2019 Riley is poised to release under the alias ‘7000 Possibilities Of Existence’ with DiY’s Peaceful Ones(DJ Pete Woosh) as part of the ’52 Card Trick Project’ on Pete’s Spirit Wrestlers Label.

Dj Dan Cartel (Deep Cartel soundsystem/Country Gents/Deep Cartel Recordings) has 20 years experience behind the turntables. Involved in the party scene since 1990 Dan first used a set of Technics Dj`ing at a friends house party in Weston-Super-Mare in 1992.
Dan started playing at illegal raves and free parties in `94 when in his opinion "the music on the south-west scene had become too hard so something had to be done".
Dan quickly picked up a tight and original mixing style and in `97 he was invited to join the highly respected Powwow and Sunnyside sound systems. With Powwow he started a long running back-2-back dj partnership with like minded mate Robbie and under the guise of "Desperate Dan and Gobbie Robbie" they rocked many of the free parties in the south-west of England.
Dan and Robbie soon gained popularity and respect for their unique blend of solid quality house music and oldskool breaks.
They quickly earned residencies at Mr C`s in Taunton, Uzer Friendly at Club Loco (Bristol) and Off The Edge in Bournemouth.
They also played festivals, including: The Rizla Bar at Glastonbury `98 (alongside Leftfield, Digs and Woosh (DIY) and David Holmes),the Lizard festivals `97, `98, `99 and the main dance stage at the Free the Weed festivals in Brockwell park, London `99 and 2000.
In 2000 Dan moved to Exeter and helped form the now legendary Deep Cartel Soundsystem. Putting on "free parties by the people for the people", the parties were usually set in the beautiful Devon countryside with a music policy of bass-heavy, deep underground house music.
In November 2000 Deep Cartel started their own club night at Casbar in Exeter where Deep Cartel dj`s played alongside quality guest dj`s/producers like:
Simon DK (DIY), DIY Jack, Smokescreen Soundsystem, Andy Caldwell (Naked Music), Marques Wyatt (om records), Andy Compton (Peng), Ben Wijay (just muzik), Inland Knights (Drop), Mr Mulatto and Ben Vacara (BRS/Flat and Round) and Andy Kinky (Tango).
Since then Deep Cartel have continued to forward the underground house scene with their own club nights, festival appearances, guest slots and of course the free parties have gone from strength to strength. Quality House DJ's travel the length and breadth of the country to have a spin and the vibe has been electric.
Dan has guested at many of the UK's best underground house nights including...D.I.Y (Nottingham), Babble(Leicester), Kinky Movement (Nottingham), Dizzy Funk (Peterborough), Fruity Antics (Bristol), Shrewd (Lincoln), Duvet-Vous? (Bristol), Chocolate Jam (Bath), Turquoise (Totnes) and Guarana (Ibiza).
A dedicated festival goer, Dan can often be found playing on stage or in back stage bars or anonymous festival DJ tents. Recently Dan has played at the Glade Festival `04 in "The Whore's Legs" backstage bar, Air Fusion festival, Shambala festival and on the Avalon stage and Lulu`s bar at Glastonbury `03 and `04.
Since then Dan has played at numerous festivals including Bestival, Shambala main dance dome, Ugfest, BGG, Waveform and sunrise. In 2007 Dan organised the House Marquee at the 7th sun festival.
In early 2010 as Deep Cartel celebrate their 10th anniversary Dan set up a new label "Deep Cartel Recordings" with fellow DC dj Lee Jones. This dj/production duo are known as "Country Gents" and have numerous releases on DCR, Manuscript, Jonny Loves House, Black No Sugar, Soiree, Pear Music and have a forthcoming release on Mobiletrax. 2011 has been a busy year on the festival scene with gigs at Love4Life (DiY/Black Box), Glastonbury's fantastic "Slumbarave" (Oldskool Houses set) and Quality Tom's Shangri-La crew bar, Magic Weekend, Spaceport Terminal, Aeon Festival and Headstock (DiY/Smokescreen tent).... On the club-scene in 2011 Dan has played at Duvet-Vous?, the re-opening of the legendary Verbeer Manor and Lakota. Look out for a new Deep Cartel club night coming soon!
