Biography
Brackles (aka Rob Kemp)'s duties as a regular warm up DJ at the infamous London Dubstep Night FWD, as well as regular appearances on Rinse FM have earned him a reputation as a skilled selector and man of good taste. Inspired by all the good stuff - Slimzee, Horsepower, Dilla, El-B, MJ Cole - Brackles is probably the best DJ around right now. With a sound a million miles away from the blokey, sludgy going rate of dubstep, this kid effortlessly incorporates funky, rolling grime, vintage 2-step and bassline into his impossibly energetic, elastic sets. Following on from releases on Berkane Sol, Pollen and Apple Pips. Brackles makes his debut appearance for Planet Mu with his 12" LHC released on July 6th 2009. http://www.myspace.com/brackles User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License and may also be available under the GNU FDL.
