"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."

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. More

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....

Distal came to the musical world in 2010 with his first release on Soul Jazz Records. Since then he's releaed on many reputable labels such as Well Rounded, Sounds Of The Cosmos, Om, Tube10, Fabric, Embassy and Tectonic where his Freshman album came out in 2012. Having stuided the auditory phenomenom known as 'Synesthesia' in his University years, Distal has used his love for the pairing of senses in his musical productions. Each one of his works evokes a very distinct visual (albeit subjective) sensation in its listener's. Retrograde Space Opera is a psychedelic science fiction story and the sophomore album of the American electronic composer and futurist known as Distal. Fully supported by RBMA, including a label launch show in Atlanta. Tours in the works for late 2014 & 2015 in North America, South America, Europe and Asia. Dj support from big names like Pinch, Addison Groove, 2562, Wheez-ie & Mumdance. Future articles and promotion include RA, Pitchfork, Fact, Big Up, Wasabeat Japan, Vice(Thump), Okay Future etc. In house full-time PR. The immersive nature of the vector artwork for Retrograde Space Opera was conceived through a year-long collaborative effort between Distal and famed Argentinian artist Freschore. Each week they met and engineered every alcove of the universe together, from detailing the minutiae of the transportation system to the fashion differences between social strata. More
