Project 13 Manchester

Posted on November 30, 2011 by Killian

Underground music continues to flourish with the passion of either a solo player or collective group. Its this passion that has gained streaming audio/ visual radio station Project 13 recognition and a following in Manchester and beyond. Going out live from the studio (which also doubles as one of the founders bedrooms) every Wednesday, this group pushes the boundaries of the genres they frequent. Branching out into club nights and now also podcasts its unknown in what direction this collective will head next but they are a solid and reliable choice for bass heavy music. Alongside the residents, recent guests have included Thelem, Guy Richards, Hedmuk, Compa, Biome and Pandemik with many of the shows available on the channels archives. Be sure to check these guys out.

Working with bands before working on his solo project he’s producing some of the most authentic and organic riddims we’ve heard. Pushing the boundaries of the one-man band this is refreshing, exciting whilst also hard to believe its all coming from a bedroom.
