A bit of info for anyone not familiar with The Electric Press:

Tom Taylor and Wesley Gill are collectively known as The Electric Press.
Their first release saw The Press signed to Ralph Lawson's 20:20 Vision Label and subsequently the pair have gone on to produce some truly outstanding work. Their seminal remix of DJ T's 'Robot Riot' found its way and remains in just about every credible DJ's record box, the guys have also done remixes on Silicone Soul's label Darkroom Dubs for Wolf & Flow and for Boogie Corporation which also went out on 20:20. With Nic Fanciulli liking what he heard so much that not only did he get the boys to rework Buick Project's ‘At The Rave' on Saved Records, he also included another of their productions ‘Re: Evaluate' (20:20 Vision) on his Renaissance mix compilation. The Yorkshire lads have continued to create work of the same esteem through the reworking of some of the world's greatest artists including Snoop Dogg and Pharell, Ian Brown, Erika Badu and Kelis.

In the studio The Electric Press don't work like your average electronic house producers. They use modular synthesis to create the unusual synth noises and musical twists; they then use outboard synths to create the musical element and sequencing live drum noises and twisted bass patterns for the underground touch.

Whilst their productions go from strength to strength, they haven't been doing badly when it comes to their DJ duties either! Their sound covers all areas of house, from laid back deep hypnotic beats through to acid riff's with driving basslines, whilst maintaining their trademark squeaks and bleeps throughout.
Their unique sound can be heard at many of the UK's leading underground clubs including their residency for Deep, Down and Dirty at The Key in London where they have the opportunity to display their versatility as a consequence of their warm up and peak time slots. Through DDD the Press have played alongside some of the world's best DJ's including Justin Long, Paul Woolford, Ralph Lawson, Dan Ghenacia and Paolo Mojo.

In addition to DDD the Yorkshire lads are gigging relentlessly at clubs the length and breadth of the country and beyond. Venues such as Turnmills, The End and The Telegraph in London, The Asylum and Back to Basics in Leeds, River in Maidstone and Radio City in Dublin have all been infiltrated by the electronic beats of The Electric Press. They've also got Serbia, Croatia and Switzerland coming up in the near future.
