CUTLASS SUPREME:
Cutlass Supreme has been DJing for ten years with the WIDE collective playing clubs, festivals and radio shows across the
UK & Europe. In 2006, Cutlass released his debut EP on WIDE Records, the long-awaited follow up to his UK Bass mix CD for
Novamute.Originally starting out as a Drum & Bass DJ in the mid 90's, Cutlass Supreme discovered the US sound of Ghetto
Tech after a chance meeting with Detroit's DJ Godfather in 2001. As a result, WIDE began booking US DJs to play at their
parties in London and the likes of Godfather, Disco D, DJ Assault, Starski and the UK's Andrea Parker and Ed DMX all joined
Cutlass behind the decks. Following a trip to the Motor City and Chicago where Cutlass hooked up with major players on the
scene, he returned with enough vinyl to kick-start the sound in the UK and become one of its leading exponents in Europe.
By 2003, amid an upsurge of new bass music from the UK, Cutlass began fusing Booty, Breaks, Grime and Ghetto Tech to create
the sound of UK Bass. With the likes of Debasser, Keith Tenniswood, Paul Blackford and Si Begg all cutting material that
could be mixed with the US material. UK Bass has developed a huge following with Novamute releasing his acclaimed UK Mix CD
at the end of 2003, appearances on BBC Radio 1's Breezeblock and gigs and festivals across Europe playing alongside the
likes of De La Soul, The Streets, Kevin Saunderson, Rolando, Plaid, Peter Kruder, Keith Tenniswood, Giles Peterson and
Brian Gee.
2006 has seen new material by Cutlass released through WIDE & WIDER Records, including the almighty "The Old Skool EP".
