Gypsyfingers are Victoria & Luke Oldfield (son of Tubular Bells' Mike Oldfield) 70's inspired analogue Folk, Rock, and Pop with acoustic and electronic embedding their magical songs in subtle soundscapes. Victoria and Luke play almost all sounds and instruments themselves creating a modern orchestra of acoustic and electric instruments and textures.

Multi-instrumentalists Victoria and Luke met in 2011 in London after Victoria returned moved back to her birth town from Paris. She was involved in underground gipsy, dance and rap music scenes there. Luke's background is in rock and folk music and he runs Tilehouse Studios where his production skills were honed from a young age. Victoria and Luke's contrasting musical backgrounds fused and soon blossomed into an intriguing and fresh-sounding collaboration, which they would work on recording during studio down-time. 

Victoria and Luke share vocal and songwriting duties with Victoria as the lead voice and writer. Victoria's classically-trained intimate vocals go against the grain of recent popular culture's trend for smokey, belting female vocalists (Adele, etc.) instead inviting the listener to listen more closely to the poetic and at times playful lyrics. The production of Luke Oldfield allow Victoria's soft vocals space to breath and be heard, whilst building subtle musical worlds around the songs for listeners to explore.

Defjax aka Jack Woodgate is a young, driven and hungry DJ who is working relentlessly to gain attention and recognition. 

Growing up in South London, Woodgate was inspired by local Dubstep producers Benga, Caspa and Rusko who have since taken over the UK Dubstep scene. Having been influenced by dubstep heavily, Woodgate incorporates mind-numbingly huge drops into his sets unlike any other. Also influenced by the likes of Wolfgang Gartner, Kim Fai, Avicii & Afrojack, Woodgate combines filthy electro with heavy dubstep bass lines, a combination that is guaranteed to tear crowds apart.

In 2008, Woodgate along with Sheffield-based producer and DJ, Alex Orbell (DPM), founded room 16 records as a platform to promote newly released tracks, events and other artists. In late 2010, Defjax’s soundcloud received over 2000 hits in less than a month with almost no promotion, a figure that established DJ’s might envy.

Currently residing in Lancaster, UK, Woodgate holds a Saturday night main-room residency at ‘The Sugarhouse’, a 1300 capacity venue that has seen the likes of Pendulum, Kissy Sell Out, Carl Cox and Chase & Status. Launched in December 2010, Woodgate’s remix of Akon’s ‘Against the Grain’ has received in excess of 1600 plays individually. After creating a facebook page, Woodgate to date has clocked up in excess of 14 thousand post views.

Aged just 20, Woodgate is keen to show venues up and down the country exactly what he can do; to mix mainstream tracks with filthy electro and dubstep hooks and offer something completely unique and fresh to the UK club scene. Watch this space.

Frank Ekwa, Levelle London and Shocka are three extremely talented individuals who united over a common bond of wanting to bring about messages of positive energy, self love and empowerment through music.

With the mantra "Too conscious for nonsense" being at the forefront of the trios mind when making their musical moves, they stay away from lyrics about money, alcohol and bad b*tches , hence going 'Against The Grain' to address issues that really matter in today's ever changing society, making the type of music that will resonate greatly with those of a similar mindset.

Not only is this masterpiece, produced by Levelle London lyrically immaculate, but with his beautiful melodies married with Camden rapper/singer Frank Ekwa's unique tone of voice and Shocka's - who was once part of the infamous Marvel trio that dominated back in the days when Channel U reigned - powerful delivery, this project is set to become a timeless, thought provoking piece that people can sing along and vibe too.

This is only reiterated by the honest perspectives displayed through the songs on Against The Grain, as the project opens with vulnerable ballad Stars, Shocka's incredibly honest verse evokes goosebumps, whilst bringing awareness to mental health issues, whereas Gut Feeling sees the trio vent their troubles with trying to remain righteous, positive versions of themselves over a syncopated, aggressive beat. Moving into People, the track lyrically details how and why the three make the kind of music hey make, a sincere insight into how Levelle, Frank and Shocka eventually came together for this project.

With intentions to empower listeners, Melanin is pro-black, challenging society's perceptions whilst remaining to be a song that you can easily zone too. The vibes carry into the self explanatory Self Love, before the project ends on high energy track Summer 4Ever.

These three, both as individuals or in any future collaborations they may have together, are about to make a huge impact in the music scene, and you can only hope that people understand how powerful this music really is in every aspect.

Against The Grain is available on all digital streaming sites now.

Why Hello There.....

I’m Lottie, the token chick in our little band. It appears to be my job to introduce your guys to my guys, if you catch my drift.
First, there’s Thomas, I'd say he was the brains behind the band, but that would be flattery! I think this whole thing was his idea, and he organises everything! Anyway, he’s our male vocalist and also plays the bass. He writes nearly, if not all, of our material. He provides the creepiness in our lyrics; some could argue he’s mentally disturbed, we just think it’s awesome! 


Ok, Calum, where do I start? Give him a guitar and he's lost for hours! No surprise he’s the lead guitarist, then. At practise when he’s not playing his guitar he’s... No, I can't remember the last time that happened. He’s a fab guitarist, holds our songs together, and if you catch him on a good day he can solo like the wind.


Next I have to mention Fred because without him practise would not be possible! He’s our drummer and we practise in his shed; a very cosy shed with all of us and our instruments... But I’m not complaining! His hospitality keeps us going, and we can never start anything without good old English cuppa, and don't forget the crumpets! Fred has the most traditional training of the group, but that doesn't stop him going totally manic!


As for myself, I’m the female influence. I sing and play the bass. Me and Thomas share the bassing and singing, depending on the song we're doing or how possessive we become of the microphone! For me thats quite a lot!! I love it!


I’ve just had a flash back and remember the first thing we ever played as a proper band; it was a jam involving Old McDonald Had A Farm! I distinctly remember its awesomeness...
We began covering songs, and in the way of every teen band, our first song was Smells Like Teen Spirit. We moved up in the world from there, trying the likes of Jet, The Strokes, and so forth, when suddenly..!


There was this challenge, see. Thomas wanted a complete CD to mail out, within 5 days. Some very, very frantic days later, and we had produced 6 songs and an intro, and from there we haven't looked back. I suppose we just enjoy being creative and more individual, carving our own way. Now, while still writing songs, we're working on getting cleaner recordings, aiming for a longer CD. But, shh, don't tell anyone I told you!
The nearest you'll be able to describe our sound is... 'Sort of post-punk, when they feel like it.' Perhaps our sound will become more defined with time, and that just means you’re doomed to listen to our stuff forever! 


Right, hopefully this has given you an introduction to Smoke Free Cigarettes. Listen to our stuff, tell us what you think....
Until next time, bye bye!


Lottie ☺
