jacob de berker

Born in the south west of England in 1984, Jacob de Berker has been playing guitar since the age of sixteen, and writing songs from the moment he learnt his first three chords. Direct influences are elliott smith, nick drake, bob dylan, sufjan stevens to name a few but to describe his music tastes as eclectic is an understatement and although not obvious inspiration is taken from everything from classical to heavy metal via breakbeat, electronica and hip hop.

Kahn

New year, new blood. Kahn steps forward from the shadows of the Bristol underground to deliver a killer double A side debut 12” release for Punch Drunk Records. The immediacy of Kahn’s brand of electrostatic synths and stirring, moody grooves are sure to rapidly ascend his profile in 2011. "Like We Used To" strikingly layers a neck snapping rhythm with mutated soulful vocals, whilst "Helter Skelter" brings enough irresistible bump and flex to move any dancefloor. Kahn’s basslines may eminate from Bristol, but prepare to feel the resonance worldwide.
