Biography

After more than a fifteen year hiatus, Burdy is back with his first release since collaborating with former Sofa Surfers member I-Wolf on 'Meet The Babylonians' (Klein Records 2004), which followed his début solo album '42' (Sunshine Enterprises 2002). However, Burdy's roots in electronic began earlier in life. Having been in bands as a guitarist and bass player in his youth, a burgeoning interest in hip hop and later house music led to Burdy starting out in the electronic music scene in Hull (UK) as a DJ in 1993. It was during these early days that Burdy met DJ and Producer Mark Blissenden aka Bliss - and the pair cofounded Baby Mammoth. Over a span of 7 years, Baby Mammoth produced seven studio albums (plus a compilation) on the influential UK label Pork Recordings - home of Fila Brazillia, Bullitnuts, & The Solid Doctor. The prolific body of work encompassed the label's ethos for experimentation in electronica, downtempo, blunted techno, drum & bass and broken beats. During this period, Burdy & Bliss collaborated with a group of highly talented jazz musicians who influenced a number of tracks on their last three albums with Pork Recordings, to create a truly 'live' version of the Baby Mammoth sound by removing all the sequenced electronics and re-arranging tracks to create drum forward, jazz expressions of their studio album work. Baby Mammoth's eighth and final album 'Octo Muck', was released in 2003 on Viennese record label Ecco.Chamber.
