  • Description

    Tim Doyle is a drummer and percussionist for a host of vital acts from the current London Jazz scene (Maisha, Theon Cross)Chiminyo is his electronic solo project, and after a year on the club and festival circuit in the UK, Gearbox are excited to launch his debut releaseChiminyo introduces a novel process to his music making. Live drums and electronics are nothing new, but Chiminyo's self-designed, self-coded software allows him to trigger samples and manipulate the electronics as he plays.

    This creates fascinating opportunities for collaborators, and also makes each performance unique.Musically evoking Drum-n-Bass legends such as LTJ Bukem, comparisons will also be made to Squarepusher, DJ Shadow and Flying Lotus.Ultimately his breathless, ingenious style is most definitely Chiminyo's own, and this 3-track debut EP is a brilliant introduction to his sound.

    For Fans Of: LTJ Bukem, Squarepusher, DJ Shadow, Flying Lotus, Heliocentrics.
