big up ! remembering the old minordust and trimsound days !

We welcome prolific UK producer Tom Ellis (@tomellis) [Telegraph/Minibar/Archipel] as our next guest on our podcast series, showcasing what he does best with live sets!

Featuring tracks from his new Alone Together LP that is out on bandcamp (link below)

[Artist Bio]
Tom is the core member and resident of the Freerotation Festival, Tom Ellis has been releasing funk & jazz inspired house & techno since 2003, when he launched Trimsound, his first label, which was co-run with Leif.

His vast discography includes over 40 EPs and 7 albums that pop up on some of the world's most respected underground labels. His early appearances on Mindtours and Trimsound led to worldwide recognition and further releases and remixes for Archipel, Good Ratio Music, Classic, Philpot, Moon Harbour, Leap, Telegraph, Logistic, Black Key Records, Eye4Eye, Floppy Funk, Morris Audio, Flumo, Supremus Records, Hartchef Discos, Minibar, Highgrade, Klamauk, and Som Bom (the electronic spin-off label run by fellow Welsh men, Super Furry Animals) and many, many more.

Tom's DJ & Live sets, which usually consist entirely of his own material (often unreleased and previously un-heard), have taken him across the globe with gigs as far afield as Moscow, Tokyo, Montreal, Guatemala, and Honduras, as well as regular appearances across Europe.

His music is regularly picked up and played by the likes of Carl Cox, Magda, Zip, Lauren Lavern (BBC 6 music), Craig Richards, Maya Jane Coles and many others.

Forever steering into the weirder side of things, he tries to anchor himself with his experience as a self-taught musician. Playing drums, bass, keys and guitar from an early age has given him a good foundation from which to understand and explore electronic music with the groove, soul and funk of a real musician.

2016 has seen the launch of his new solo label, In Modo Di (@in-modo-di), with the first record landing high in the bestseller charts, and the launch of his new monthly radio show on KMAH radio, The Taunton Loft Sessions.

The Auditory Tales

Microwaves:009 "The Auditory Tales" by Tom Ellis

Microwaves is an artist collective that features unique mixes from an international community of artists, producers and DJs. 

Microwaves believes in the cathartic power of music experienced through rooted exploration and authentic connection. Operating on the outer fringes of the sonic spectrum, Microwaves is a fusion of planetary rhythms and intergalactic tempos, masterfully blending micro // minimal // tech-house // deep jazz // ambient // dub // funk // techno and breaks into a voyage through rare and experimental sonic microcosms.
