Packing a serious arsenal of studio hardware, the young talent has a vibrant catalogue showcasing the variety of his output. He is equally at home with melodic techno, acid and broken beats, such as on his releases ‘Teriyaki Donut’ and ‘Telepathic Seduction’ on James Zabiela’s Born Electric imprint. Last year he joined Sasha’s Last Night On Earth roster with the uplifting yet groovy ‘Marlon Brando’ EP. Alongside bagging releases and support from revered labels such as these, Jody has been developing his own ‘Portable Minds’ label.
