Which artist has influenced you the most?

- Too many to mention, I get loads of inspiration from a lot of people of different genres of music, be it electronic or rock/guitar music/classical. For electronic, I would ultimately say my biggest influence/inspiration would be Richard.D.James. He's just fearless and totally true to himself and his sound, immensely talented individual. His music has got me through so much in my life and I am eternally indebted. I think my music has alot of the spirit of what he's doing but hopefully it's not plagiarized or a ripoff, I think I've found my own sound over the years.

What new projects/releases with your participation are expected in the near future?

- I have a new album coming out late feb/march on Anil Lal's Altered Sense label, it's a double with alot of breakbeat and early 90s UK Hardcore spirit. There is also a split ep I have coming out with InkiPak (Jon) on Wavefunction which will be great to put out. Also a follow up ep on 030303 to my 'Polysynthesis' ep I had out with them. There may also be further material coming out on Furthur Electronix at some point, currently just archiving/stockpiling new material for that.

Which artists/labels is more relevant to you now?

- Mainly the ones I've released on, kindred spirits and a huge influence on me. Different people on different labels, but they are all wonderful, cool people who are easy to get along with 030303, Furthur Electronix, Brokntoys, La Beauté Du Négatif, Withhold etc. All wicked labels with so much talent on them.
Special shout out and respect to Mateo, Anwar, Anil Lal, Steijn, Neil Fulcrum 4. The list is too long to write here.

What inspires you now to create music?

- Can be anything, art, music, film, literature, being alive and living in the current. Knowing that without my music I would have nothing. It's easy to stay motivated if music is all you have.

SUBLUX

Old fart who loves 4:4 across the board. Occasionally promote and play out at a night called 'Darkroom' and at 'Esoteric' at The Trades Club, Hebden Bridge. currently promoting #InRealLife at The Golden Lion, Todmorden (next event is 3/12/25 with Reedale Rise live.) Held a residency on the Modulations podcast and broadcast 'The Electric Lounge' radio show for two years. Musical inspirations: too many. Forged in late 89 sweatboxes in Manchester...But it ain't where you're from, it's where you're at. 

Modulations is back — with a new musical direction.

In this next chapter, the podcast will focus mainly on live performances from electronic music artists who embrace a DIY approach to creativity — many of whom perform at EMOM and similar grassroots events.

Over the past few years, I’ve been attending various EMOM (Electronic Music Open Mic) events across the north of England. It’s at these gatherings that I’ve discovered some incredible talent — from both familiar and often unknown artists. This includes close friends, whom I’ve had the pleasure of watching take to the stage and perform for the very first time. The whole experience has been inspiring — and eye (or ear) opening, to say the least.

Click here for more information about EMOM and how to get involved: electronicmusicopenmic.com

In addition to live performances, I’ll occasionally upload DJ sets — from myself and a few handpicked others. No genre boundaries — just the good stuff.

If you create live electronic music — whether you play at EMOM events or elsewhere — I’d love to hear from you.
