Wild City continues pushing forward with international event series – Various Artists.
For the 17th in the series, following 'Space Dimension Controller', 'Palms Trax', 'Flako', 'Roska', 'Slugabed', 'Nic Tasker', 'Sarah Farina', 'Tommy Flowers', 'Milo Häfliger', 'Ikonika', 'Scratcha DVA', 'Addison Groove', 'Culoe de Song', 'Jasper James', 'Dauwd' and 'RP Boo' we're extremely happy to host Mumdance once again on Indian shores.
We’ve titled the series ‘Various Artists’ because it won’t be confining itself to the restraints of genre – this series could feature dark, dubby producers one week, experimental live electronica the next and pure disco the week after. The aim is to stay current and informed about the international scene's most forward thinking producers, and of course, to listen to some good music.
Since learning his craft in the basement of pioneering grime artist Jammer around 2006, Mumdance has built a reputation as one of the world’s most inventive DJs and producers, drawing from ideas from across the world but always putting his own unique spin on them. His early days saw him collaborate with artists as diverse as Skepta and Brodinski, while working with local musicians in Mexico and Brazil broadened his horizons in a way that informs his work to this day: he’s since lectured and hosted workshops across Europe, and as far afield as Australia, Japan, India and Russia.
In 2013, following a two-year hiatus, Mumdance returned with his most critically acclaimed and commercially successful music to date. His 2013 mixtape Twists & Turns was named FACT Magazine’s best album of the year and their 31st best album of the last five years, while his collaborations with Novelist, ‘Take Time’ and ‘1 Sec’ (released on legendary label XL Recordings), mark two of the biggest anthems from grime’s recent revival, and topped end of year charts from Resident Advisor, Mixmag, FACT, Dummy, Noisey and more.
This period also saw Mumdance come into his own as a DJ, with a series of well-received and influential mix CDs – including a CD for Fabric’s prestigious FabricLive series, a back-to-back mix with Pinch and 2016’s Mumdance & Logos Presents Different Circles – one of US iTunes’ top 10 electronic albums of 2016. As a DJ at this time he played international festivals including Sónar Barcelona and Reykjavik, Unsound, CTM, SXSW, Glastonbury and Field Day, toured the US and Asia on multiple occasions, lectured at the Tate & performed at the Barbican and ICA.
During this time he also launched Different Circles, his record label and event series with Logos that specialises in ‘weightless’ – an already-influential combination of grime, techno, ambient music, sound design and more, and collaborated with artists such as BAFTA-nominated Mica Levi, AJ Tracey, Russell Haswell and Nozinja. Although Mumdance has roots in grime, techno and sound design, his diversity puts him in a truly unique position: he’s probably the only artist in history who could support Major Lazer on tour one week and hold his own on an experimental techno line-up the next.
Having released 2 EPs in 2017, he is now working on his debut album under this alias whilst balancing life as a game designer by day.
