I like the way that using psychedelic back lines create the ambience to interact with the audience.

Sophie Barker - Do it to Myself - (Little Thoughts Remix)

Overbite

soundcloud.com/lo18official remixed my song Road 66 for "In The Blink Of An Eye", which was compiled by Banco De Gaia’s Toby Marks to mark 20 years since he set up the soundcloud.com/discogeckorecordings label to accommodate his desire to promote eclectic forward-thinking music with heart, integrity and beauty.

Using Disco Gecko artists to mix and collaborate with other artists on the label, the collections’ eleven tracks incorporate ethereal textures, experimental electronics, downtempo grooves and unique treatments of traditional (and not-so-traditional) instruments.

Features tracks and remixes by soundcloud.com/bancodegaia, soundcloud.com/andrewheatharts, soundcloud.com/sophiebarkermusic, soundcloud.com/radium88band, soundcloud.com/animat, soundcloud.com/dragonflytrio, soundcloud.com/lo18official, soundcloud.com/andyguthrie, soundcloud.com/simonpowermusic and soundcloud.com/drtrippymusic

Mikal - Metalheadz Bristol mix

Sophie Barker’s distinctive and critically acclaimed vocal range, paired with her emotional song-writing skills, have yielded world-wide chart-topping singles, million-selling albums and music collaborations with artists as diverse as David Guetta, Zero 7, Groove Armada, The Egg and Robin Guthrie (Cocteau Twins).

Having formed her first group at 9 years of age, as a teenager, Sophie went on to write and perform songs with her guitar at venues across the UK. After completing her degree at UCL, she moved beyond her mid-90s record deal with Sony, to join down-tempo lounge wizards, Zero 7, and co-wrote their huge hit ‘Destiny’ with Sia Furler. 

Her evocative vocal delivery and charismatic stage presence became an integral part of the Zero 7 sound and live show. Capitalising on her fan base, she began to release as a solo artist. Her first two albums ’Earthbound’ (2005) and ‘Seagull’ (2011) gained support from DJs as varied as Don Letts and Janice Long with radio plays on BBC 6music and Radio 2 among a plethora of other stations.

Her long-awaited 3rd solo album, ’Break the Habit’ took 4 years to record but sees her more comfortable than ever in her own skin. Undoubtedly her best work to date, the LP effortlessly flows between her upfront live sound, finely-honed from intense touring and appearances with her band at festivals and venues across the UK and USA, and more atmospheric, mood-driven electronica.
