Startslow, aka Bristol producer Gus Savy, has been making music in one form or another for years. Not really genre specific, his dark, deep and dirty music is often quirky, with plenty of micro-programming and odd sounds taken from a variety of sources.
His live sets are always throbbing and exciting, often moving though a gamut of different bass genres... if you get a chance, you really should check him out.
Startslow will be releasing an EP on Drawn Recordings in 2011, featuring a wide range of influences and bearing all sorts of strange sonic fruit. We can't wait for it to drop.
When he's not wearing his Startslow hat, Gus can be found skateboarding, making skate zines, writing music for TV, writing and playing music for a saxophone ensemble called 'Sax off the Roof', playing saxophone with the Bristol Reggae Orchestra, writing music reviews and being used as a human trampoline.
