Joining us for the fourth installment of our Autumn / Winter sessions at Plastic People will be Joy Orbison (Doldrums) and Mark E (Merc / Spectral Sound).
Joy Orbison is one of the most talked about young producers to come out of London in many years. At the end of 2009 his debut release - Hyph Mngo/Wet Look - dropped on Scuba's Hotflush Recordings, receiving worldwide acclaim from DJs and commentators from a wide range of musical persuasions and eventually topping Resident Advisor's top tracks of 2009. His subsequent releases (two on his own Doldrums label, one on Aus Music, and another on Hotflush) have continued to plough the fertile ground between House, UK Garage, UK Funky, Dubstep and Jungle, making every release just as anticipated as the next, with outings of unreleased material in clubs and on radio stations such as Rinse FM generating youtube view-counts in the thousands long before tracks officially see the light of day. His long-awaited cut GR Etiquette and a forthcoming collaboration with Boddika are just two examples of what we can still expect from an artist absolutely on top of his game.

Mark E’s love affair with electronic dance music began began early, as an adolescent, when Manchester was Madchester and the irreverent attitude of rave culture swept through England. As Mark got older, he dove headfirst into the surprisingly fertile Wolverhampton scene, tasting house at the hands of legends like John Kelly and Frankie Knuckles before a move to Birmingham for University also installed him in a larger club scene. Mark’s first forays into production were, naturally, edits—warm, understated, and interestingly mellow, with tempos hovering somewhere between 105 and 115 BPM. (Or thereabouts.) Once “Scared,†a ten-minute rework of Womack & Womack’s “Baby, I’m Scared Of You,†found the ears of influential selector (and, more importantly, BBC radio DJ) Giles Peterson, it was on, and a solid string of memorable, vinyl-only releases introduced the world at large to this humble, devoted househead. Mark has since gone beyond edits and into original production, starting his own label, MERC, and honing a sound that was uniquely blue collar and utilitarian—classic, almost industrial house, with a tinge of disco warmth. 2011 has seen Mark release his debut artist LP on Spectral Sound. In September his widely anticipated Call Me single will drop on MERC with remixes from house heavyweights Dixon & Tensnake.
