Steve Cobby is a prolific polymath, whose near 35 year career in music has been shaped by a penchant for ‘trans-categorical’ music, a fiercely independent ‘do-it-yourself’ spirit, close-knit ties to his home city of Kingston-Upon-Hull, and an ability to simultaneously delight listeners and confound music critics. Cobby is best-known for his work with long-time studio partner David ‘Man’ McSherry as Fila Brazillia, a typically impossible-to-pigeonhole outfit who delivered a string of sublime singles and albums in the 1990s and early 2000s, as well as countless remixes for artists including Radiohead, Simple Minds, A Certain Ratio and The Orb. There have been countless other collaborative projects over the years, too, including Ashley & Jackson and Heights of Abraham, as well as releases created with avant-garde composer Harold Budd, dub maestro Dennis Bovell, Richard H Kirk, Stephen Mallinder and Crazy P’s Danielle Moore. You can find all his non-Fila Brazillian work on his Déclassé imprint.
