Silkie

"I started working on the album around two years ago without knowing I was making an album. I prefer it that way. I don't like putting the pressure of making an album on my shoulders before I start making music. When the idea of the album was born, I approached it like a label would; listening to the music I've been making recently, seeing what makes sense together. That ended up being natural for me, capturing a snapshot in time of my musical journey." Silkie 2021

Adding much colour to DEEP MEDi's back catalogue over the last 10 years, Silkie's latest is as consistent in quality as it is in brightness.

Silkie's latest double vinyl and digital album 'Fractal's' on long-time friend and collaborator Distal's newly minted Science Fiction imprint 'Anarchostar' might just be his most forward thinking work to date. Silkie has put together a psychedelically sexy and temperamental record that toys with new ideas, archetypes and bpm's but still grounds itself in what makes dance music and his music so palpable... repetition.

With 8 singles and 2 full album releases, Silkie’scontribution to his home DEEP MEDi Musik and dubstep, is outstanding. 'The Lost Tapes (Vol. 1) is no exception. Digging deep into his old computers and archives he found music that even his close circle of producers knew nothing about. This record shows why Silkie is still heavily in demand today. His output is both consistent and innovative, likehis playing style. He describes playing shows "as my second studio". If you have seen him play you'll understand why. With DMZ, FWD and Rinse Fm as his training ground he's collecting international miles as far as New Zealand, Australia, Japan, USA, Europe and back home right here in London, UK. This record is his next offering to both his loyal and new fans.

Silkie returns almost two years to the month with the follow up to his first album ‘City Limits Volume 1’. Volume 2 is the final output in the ‘City Limits’ series and follows on from a triplet of releases this year on DEEP MEDi, two singles ‘City Limits Volume 1.2 and 1.4’ and the last EP ‘City Limits Volume 1.6 – 1.8’. ‘City Limits Volume 2’ pushes the boundaries of Silkie’s love affair with the funk and his crew’s Antisocial’s gangster boogie vibrations even further in to the Dubstep future. Silkie shows on ‘City Limits Volume 2’ just how far ahead of the pack he is with twelve certified future funk jams. Heavy dance floor licks such as ‘Taxi Me Get’ and ‘New York City’ roll slickly alongside the fusion of Rare groove, Dubstep and Jungle on ‘Rock Da Funk’, Only 4 U’, ‘Boogie Boy’ and ‘Selva Nova’, smart moves indeed from the West London dapper Dan. As if that’s not enough to keep you grooving hard Silkie has enlisted a selection of choice collaborators, Dubstep don Skream steps in to lend a hand on the skanking, bass shaking ‘Untitled’ whilst....
