Now fronted by Tony Colman, London Elektricity is a by-word for real music
in drum+bass. Making their mark with the epic 'Song In The Key Of Knife',
Tony Colman and Chris Goss first threw together their 'Elektric productions
in 1996. Founders and backbone of Hospital Records, they also pursued
parallel projects under the monikers Future Homosapiens, Dwarf Electro, and
Orkestra Galactica. The pair released countless singles and one critically
acclaimed album "Pull The Plug" back in 1999; they've turned out remixes
for, amongst others, The Headhunters, Nitin Sawhney, and UFO, and compile
the Plastic Surgery and Out Patients series (drum+bass and freestyle
respectively).
Having spent much of the last 18 months developing the label, and nurturing
their young Welsh prodigy High Contrast, the Summer of 2002 was time for
change : Tony having perenially been the musical and song-writing hub of
the project has now taken on the LE mantle solo, whilst Chris has moved
over to full-time management of the record label. Playing To Your
Strengths, some might call it, and with Tony's music-machine firing on all
cylinders you can expect a second album of the very highest quality. It
drops in March of 2003.
And hold tight for the live Elektricity experience! Showcased with a debut
for Fabio's Maida Vale special this Spring on Radio One, the blueprints
have been rubber-stamped for a touring LE band by next year.
