Prolific producer, label owner, collaborator and DJ Ed DMX headlines Locomotive Disco on Saturday 1st July for a one-off Boogie set, breaking the current of his prolific history in acid music.
Edward Upton's recordings as DMX Krew placed him at the forefront of the '90s electro revival. His extensive career arches back to the '90s; signed to Aphex Twin's Rephlex label, which issued his debut full-length, Sound of the Street in 1996, Ed DMX has established himself as one of the chief architects of Rephlex's "braindance" sound.
His original productions paid tribute to '80s electro pioneers such as Man Parrish and Afrika Bambaataa as well as new romantic synth pop group Depeche Mode. Upton founded the label Breakin' Records, releasing electro records by himself as well as similarly minded artists like Mandroid, Bass Junkie, and Squarepusher's brother Ceephax Acid Crew.
The year 2013 saw the release of mini-albums Reith Trax on Rush Hour imprint No 'Label' and Micro Life on Abstract Forms. These were followed by a rash of full-lengths in 2014: Standing Stones (Mystic & Quantum Records), 100 Tears (Fundamental Records), and Shape Shifting Shaman (Shipwrec), as well as Mini LP on Swedish label Stilleben Records.
In 2016, DMX Krew signed to Hypercolour (Alan Fitzpatrick, Wehbba etc.), which issued albums by Upton's former Rephlex labelmate and occasional collaborator Luke Vibert, for the release of You Exist, the Krew's first album to be released on CD since 2010.
