Koma and bones are a two man outfit from the north west of England. Its been 6 years since they first hit the headlines on a then fledgeling breaks scene with their remix of the seminal house track 'the phoenix' by scott hardkiss. Within months the guys were snapped up by rennie pilgrims seminal breakbeat label – tcr.
Through the next few years koma and bones went onto produce two critically acclaimed artist albums on tcr – blinded by science and shutterspeed while finding time to mix a stunning y4k and the u.s. equivalent - nu horizons mix cd. This would have been enough output for most but not k&b – over the last few years their remix work reads like a who's who of dance music with such luminaries as new order, mousse t, kosheen, xpress-2 and bassbin twins all receiving the treatment.
All this work has meant that koma and bones have a worldwide appeal to dancefloors and have played at some of the finest clubs and events in the world with extensive touring of Europe, the states, Australia and the far east. Legendary clubs such as zouk, fabric, womb and spundae have all felt the koma and bones sound.
For the last two years koma and bones have definetly honed their style to a more tech funk influenced sound in both production and their djing. They have had huge hits with meat katies influential lot 49 imprint as well as releasing on lee coombs thrust recordings while at the same time they have been receiving strong reviews and sales for their other monicker – the albino allstars – on tagsta records.
The new koma and bones direction has inspired them to launch their own label – burrito. As well as their own remixes and productions on there they are also helping launch a new generation of beat freaks such as metric, jinx! and 10 rapid. Over the labels first year their releases have seen huge support from dance music's leading players such as – annie nightengale, fergie, Laurent garnier, funk dvoid, meat Katie, adam freeland, evil 9, hybrid, james zabielia, john dahlback and lee coombs.
Burrito is set for a bumper year after its breakspoll nomination for best new label with hot new tracks and remixes from the boys themselves plus new material from jono Fernandez, metric, nu breed, bassbin twins, 10rapid and david ekenback. Show less
