The Shitmat sound is a roller coaster ride of splintered jungle, rave, old school, gabber and attention deficit disorder plunderphonic mashups . No genre is sacred no sample is safe.
Over the last 8 years Shitmat has released 8 EPs and 6 studio albums shared between Planet Mu and Wrong Music. His 2nd album ‘Full English Breakfast’ captured the imagination and mood of the then emerging breakcore/mashup scene, mixing up jungle blast beats, gabber influences and Ragga Vocals. Championed by the late great John Peel Shitmat went on to record three BBC radio one sessions for rob da bank and Huw Stephans.
His 2009 Planet Mu release ‘One Foot in the Rave’ paid homage to the old school. He approached this album by analyzing his favourite rave tracks, noting and using the best styles and techniques. The result is a killer concoction of all the best bits of rave and jungle.
Trying to break the Guinness world record for longest album ever made he released ‘‘FULL OF SHIT!’ the most ridiculous, honest and intense album he’d made. With 99 tracks running in at nearly 5 hours long.
Along with DJ Scotch Egg, Ebola and others, Shitmat forms the Wrong Music Crew who produce many musical and audiovisual projects such as the Countryside Alliance and …. From 2005 till 2011 they ran the anarchic record label / promotion group WRONG MUSIC releasing and promoting a vast selection of music spanning over 20 releases and more than 50 parties and shows.
With support from Dave Shades, McGarvatron, Data Rape and Tommy.
