Valkyrie & Attila needed to find an outlet for their pent up frustrations after their former bassist & guitarist could no longer continue. 

They set about building a robot that could transform their lives with a full band sound. 

This gadget was the electro driving force behind Attila's explosive drumming & the cutting guitars & vocals of Val. All components in one live boogie machine. The Devices was born. 

They played their debut gig in September 2011 at Cargo, London & the band rapidly developed their sound in the studio, as well as live over the coming months. 

By the summer of 2012 they were picked by Emergenzia as the only UK band to feature on an international compilation of unsigned talent. 20,000 copies of their self-produced track 'The Lights of Canary Wharf' went to press. 

Around this time The Devices made their first video "Bridges" which can be found on their Youtube channel "Wearethedevices", & have just added another "Offshore" in time for the New Year.

Currently booking their March tour to coincide with self produced release 'Bridges'.

Out now, "Old Skin".  The latest album by electronic music pioneer, Morgan King.

Morgan, although born in London started his career in Manchester as a drummer. Illustration, his first band appeared on the Some Bizarre Album with the song he co-wrote "Tidal Flow".  This compilation was to also feature the first recordings by the likes of, Depeche Mode, Soft Cell, Blancmange and The The. At this period he worked with producers such as Martin Hannett in Strawberry Studios, Stockport and Mike Hedges at his Playground Studios in Camden Town.

After a few years honing his musical skills Morgan moved to Chicago in the late 80s, where he got together with Marshall Jefferson, the godfather of house and house diva Kym Mazelle for the writing of her first album.
 
Back in Europe a year later he joined Manic MC's and co wrote "Mental" a UK club smash and remixed Gwen Guthrie's "Ain't Nothin' Going On But The Rent"! Then in 1990, Morgan teamed up with the classic Swedish house label Btech for a number of underground projects such as Technoir, Control E and Al-Hambra, whose releases are collectors items today.

In 1990, Jan Ekholm asked him to join Clubland along with vocalist Zemya Hamilton. Their debut singe "Let's Get Busy" (remixed by Snap) became a worldwide hit, including No 1 in the Billboard Club Chart.
 
The success was followed up by the hits "Hold On", "Love Strain", "Set Me Free" and "Hypnotized" who all got to the same number one position in the US and established Clubland all over the world. The band worked with many of the top producers at the time including David Morales, Steve "Silk" Hurley, E-Smoove, Eric Kupper, StoneBridge and George Morel.

In between Clubland, Morgan found the time to release his first solo effort; the timeless club classic "I'm Free", hammered by every DJ around the globe, and also the classic "Take Me Up" by Soundsource - an end of the night anthem played by the likes of Andrew Weatherall and sampled by an endless number of acts throughout the years, including Lock 'n' Load for thier top 10 hit "Blow ya Mind".
 
Morgan also wrote and produced two tracks on the first volume of the successful Cafe Del Mar compilation series "Agua" and "On the Rocks, plus picked up a Grammy Award for "Best Dance Act".

Of late Morgan has been writing and producing music which has featured on BBC, ITV, Films and most cabel networks, with plans in the process to return to his roots as a singer/songwriter!

Photographer and film-maker with a thirst for music and just enough happy memories of being in a band that I want to start recording again.

Live @ Surya King's Cross - April 18th 2016

Missionary Fades is my solo project influenced by mainly 90's grunge and post grunge. All songs were performed and produced by me, recorded on Logic Pro from home. 

My music explores themes of the bipolar condition, despair, insecurity, falling, positive energy, growth, recovery and rebirth. The name "Missionary Fades" is about keeping faith in the face of turmoil. My main influences are Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, Smashing Pumpkins, Stone Temple Pilots, Queens of the Stone Age, Living Colour and Skunk Anansie. 

My Album “Intakes of Sanity” is currently available on Spotify, iTunes and Amazon.
