ANATOMIST has been writing and performing his own brand of distorted break-dub and sprained melodies since the late 90s. Mile-wide bass lines, brittle percussion and drunken beats combine with found sounds and multi-layered distortion to disorienting effect. He has been busting bass bins live around South Wales since the earliest incarnation of machine.records’ Terminal nights and has played with everyone from Schnieder TM to Client.

The new LP ‘Ingrate’ is officially released August 2009 through all the usual digital outlets (iTunes, Amazon, etc) but will be exclusively available at www.peoplesmusicstore.com/Anatomist from July 6th.

While the dubstep influence is still strong, there’s a lot more thrown into the pot this time around. Bass is still the predominant force, backed up with the muscular drumming of krautrock, off kilter strings and King David melodies. As dusk turns to dark, then to dawn, a soundtrack unfolds, a hymn to the hazy lost weekends of urban summers and nostalgic nights out. Paranoid whimsy from broken machines.

ANATOMIST’s previous release, 2008’s Dirt Famous EP, delved further into the dubstep sound. Deep, dark and thoroughly messed up, Dirt Famous is built from the bass up. Layering pulsing electro and hip hop influenced beats over endlessly decaying delays, intricate percussion and screaming feedback.

‘Filthy, filthy dubstep’ - machine.records. ‘Thrillingly unsettling’ Adam Walton - BBC Radio Wales.

November 2006 brought the long-awaited follow-up to ANATOMIST’s 2004 debut album Violence Is Its own Reward in the form of the In Fading Light EP. The brand new tracks on In Fading Light saw the varied style of that earlier album reach full maturity, with spectacular results.
