The intrigue of the anonymous artist

[skimpi]

The fact he now heads the soundcloud/facebook page with a picture of his own face takes the fucking cake imo.

wasteman

most of the recent stuff i've heard's been well bait disclosure wannabes anyway

I was on his facebook other day, and he was moaning about labels asking him to take tunes down, as they had now signed them. His bug was that if it wasnt for him then those tunes wouldnt be known and subsequently signed to their label, and that it ruins the series as numbers will be missing.

But yeah like you say, he does this unknown thing, then starts doing sets off the back of simply uploading other peoples tunes and now reveals himself cos he wants everyone to know who he is!

And yeah all the tunes are shite anyway haha, well not all, but im not gonna go on there to find music. I was thinking of sending things in before, but never did haha

Yeah, this pretty much, he's starting his own festival now with some of the biggest names in the underground haha, big up for keeping it "unknown". Most of the tunes were so easy to identify because they came from people that were fairly known anyway.

That "Unknown" that has had a couple of vinyl releases on Champion Sound (I think that's what the label is called) makes me laugh, whenever I've seen him talking about himself, he just goes on and on about how unknown he is.

For some people like Sangam, they have absolutely no interest in the "face" side of things, but for those "Unknown" above, well, just calling yourself "Unknown" shows you why they're doing it...

is that him?! lol

yeah like, i kinda like the whole, low key thing, but only when its natural as in they make good tunes, get some interest, but dont want their face plastered all over the internet and do 10 interviews a week. But like starting out calling yourself unknown is plain fucking weak man. The fact that this guy has now revealed his face, but still keeps the name unknown is even worse lol

Yeah, sure it was him I saw post it on facebook the other day.

Also think a forum account doesnt help if you ever want your music taken seriously

Ho boy, I'm gonna ask Wub to delete my account on this forum when my FL; Symphonies album comes out.

Tbh, he seems like some UKFesque character who would promo you unless you had a follow count in the high hundreds to low thousands at least.

Exactly what I thought. Tbh I'm surprised ukf doesn't have a flavour of the month bass music/juke/knackered house/techbro channel

sorry, but they have

Mostly bro/hospital dnb/electro house/trap. I meant a channel for the type of shit that's uploaded on that unkown soundcloud.

South London Ordnance did this too.

What pisses me off, is that when he first got out there he was all for putting his real name on shit. I'm pretty sure it's Oscar Morgan...
Then in an interview with XLR8R, he suddenly got way too low key for that shit...

i feel like more and more i keep reading articles on xlr8 or FACT about new artists, and they are much more interested in talking about the artists persona or which big name DJs are playing their tunes than about their actual music.

Sometimes you finish reading about them and you know as much about their music as you did before you read it.

He was one of the people who followed 2000 people on soundcloud, got their hype and then unfollowed all of them.
