Keef Baker

Keef may have gone to school with one of the Spice Girls, but thankfully that didn't shape his taste in music. Starting out in death metal bands and moving into Indie and Jazz, Keef became a session bassist. However he rediscovered music through bands such as Skinny Puppy, Test Dept and Autechre in the early to mid 90s which was when his attention turned to more electronic music. Through the years this music has mutated into a cross breed of influences, mixing IDM's penchant for 'melancholy ambience', post-industrial's 'haunting and wavering', and breakcore's 'clatter and bash' to great effect. Through the last few years his influences have grown further taking in post-rock, jazz, doom metal, chiptunes, grindcore and eastern music turning his music into something honest and unique.
