Formed in Leeds during a particularly melancholy 1996, Chris Hooson and David Buxton have set about making both singer songwriter and ambient / cinematic soundscapes since the beginning.

They do this with varying degrees of success.

The band has toured with only slight vigour across Europe and Japan. The music of Dakota Suite has featured in mainstream cinema, art house cinema and also TV. 

"In 2007 I decided to make a new record after 3 years not being able to communicate with the outside world.  I had decided that I needed to speak again musically, and that it was the only way I could really manage my complicated inner world, by making sense of it through conveying my darkness through song.  The resulting record was called ‘waiting for the dawn to crawl through and take away your life’.   

This music was only ever available on CD, and now I am hoping that this record will finally live on vinyl.  But I can only do it with your help." Chris Hooson (dakota suite)

You’ve either got soul or you don’t. David Ryan Harris most definitely does. The singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist has built an impressive catalog of soulful stories that instantly captivate. “Soulfulness comes from telling stories in in the most honest and direct way that you can,” he says. “People relate to what you’re saying when you sing from the heart.”

That’s exactly what Harris has done throughout his near three-decade career. Whether it be in early bands such as Follow For Now, Brand New Immortals or over the course of six full-length solo albums, he tells stories that resonate. He’s carried this same spirit while producing, writing and/or performing with the likes of John Mayer, Dave Matthews, India.Arie, Cassandra Wilson and Guy Sebastian—with whom he co-wrote the RIAA platinum-certified “Battle Scars.”

Most recently, it drove Harris’ 2015’s Lightyears, which boasted guest spots from John Mayer, India.Arie, and Nikka Costa. Along the way, he received acclaim from All Music Guide, Glide Magazine, Elmore Magazine, Performer Magazine, AXS, Relix Magazine, and many others in addition to performing on Fox, CBS, and The CW in between packed tours. His next chapter unfolds on his 2017 seventh offering, Songs For Other People.

« They don’t know what to call it, I’m calling it sexy » Hailing from South East London recording artist DC is a living embodiment of his environment - even down to his name standing for « Dock City » an ode to the estate he grew up on - « Woolwich Dockyard ». As an artist he has and continues to carve out his own distinctive lane, creating nostalgic garage & hip-hop influenced anthems with a consistent theme of strong messaging, all delivered with a smooth, rhythmic flow (one he pays respects to his influences: J.Cole and Fabolous being at the forefront) a formula that continues to build him a loyal, well engaged fan base. DC continues to go strength to strength with the release of his eagerly anticipated EP « In The Loop » featuring singles « Neighbourhood », « Tears Sweet Blood » , « Paranoia » and « Bobby&Rowdy ft.Knucks » - amassing millions of streams and Youtube views, with coverage from leading tastemaker outlets as « one of the best tapes of 2021 » and « a UK cult classic » . Capping off a successful campaign with a headline show, festival bookings and brand engagements - DC has continued to build new connections with fans in new territories with his infectious flows and thought provoking melodies. 

Chilli found acclaim with his band Palma Violets, who skyrocketed to fame, landing on NME covers and topping charts, but when the band unexpectedly ended in his early twenties, Jesson was left disoriented. He tried to rebuild with a new project, Crewel Intentions, and later ventured into pop songwriting out of financial necessity.

Feeling disillusioned and creatively lost, Jesson stopped listening to the music that once defined him—until Fontaines DC invited him on tour. This rekindled his passion for raw, honest music. Inspired, he began crafting his most personal project yet alongside Rupert Greaves: Dead Dads Club, with ‘Don’t Blame The Son For The Sins Of The Father’ being the first fruits from this new incarnation.

Denzel Curry's King Of The Mischievous South Volume 2 finds him presenting a sequel to the project, and bringing back the sound, that helped launch his career. While the first installment of King Of The Mischievous South was performed from the perspective of his Raven Miyagi persona, a name bestowed upon him by Raider Klan founder SpaceGhostPurrp, Volume 2 finds Curry operating under his Big Ultra persona -- an elevated version of Raven Miyagi that is bragadocious and revels in the success that Curry has seen over the last decade of his career.

Given the project's sound, which pays homage to the great musical heritages of the South, its features include the region's greats, both old and new, as well as others whose style is indebted to the South's musical legacy. The intentional inclusion of Rocky and Ferg is Curry's attempt to show what could have been, fulfilling the promise that existed at the rise of their respective careers in the early 2010s.

With all of the otherworldly adventures Denzel has taken listeners on over the course of his last few conceptually-driven albums, this project serves as a showcase for the fun, spontaneity and technical mastery that has made him one of rap's most in-demand talents over the course of the last decade.

“I always follow where the music takes me,” says Dustin O’Halloran, and it’s a statement which could apply as readily to the pianist and composer’s slow drift across the globe as to his ever-evolving sound, for which he first won attention with Dēvics, the band he formed alongside Sara Lov, who released their debut album in 1998 and went on to sign with Bella Union. Born in Phoenix, Arizona, then resident in Los Angeles, O’Halloran later moved to rural Northern Italy for seven years, then on to Berlin for a decade, before decamping to Reykjavík in 2018, from where he now splits his time with Los Angeles again. His work has meanwhile pursued a similarly adventurous route, advancing soon after the turn of the century from Dēvics’ hazy dream pop to a series of increasingly ambitious solo albums, which in turn have led to an Oscar-nominated, Emmy-winning career as a composer of film and TV scores, as well as multiple dance and art projects. That’s not to mention his critically acclaimed collaboration with Stars Of The Lid’s Adam Wiltzie, A Winged Victory For The Sullen, an idiosyncratic, ambient orchestral project which has performed around the world.
His has been, in other words, a grand journey so far. Whether it be in the understated elegance of his Piano Solos Vols 1 & 2 (2004, 2006), the deft electronic touches that embellish A Winged Victory For The Sullen’s graceful soundscapes, or the imaginative, evocative arrangements characterising his (relatively) grander works – among them the fragile strings of his last solo album, 2011’s Lumiere; 2016’s elegantly atmospheric, Oscar nominated Lion score, written with Volker Bertelmann, aka Hauschka; and 2018’s bitter-sweet ‘Horizons’, Puzzle’s closing theme, featuring veteran Scandinavian chart-topper Ane Brun, who performed it at the 2018 Nobel Peace Prize ceremony – O’Halloran has constantly displayed a canny knack for unlocking familiar but often intimate sentiments. 
It’s a talent he cultivated early: having taught himself to play piano at the age of seven, O’Halloran soon began writing his own music, inspired by the sounds emerging from his mother’s ballet lessons. Before long, the influence of the likes of Chopin, Arvo Pärt and Debussy was supplanted by a fondness for more esoteric acts – Cocteau Twins (whose Simon Raymonde would later sign him to his label, Bella Union), Gavin Bryars, Morton Feldman and Joy Division – and, by the time he was 19 or so, he was writing songs for Dēvics with Lov, whom he met at Santa Monica College, where he was studying art. Though he was initially reluctant to share his piano compositions, it was their very Satie-esque simplicity that helped establish him – alongside Hauschka, Jóhann Jóhannsson, Max Richter and Nils Frahm – as part of a musical environment in which he subsequently flourished. Indeed, Frahm has engineered recordings for O’Halloran, while the late Jóhannsson mixed Lumiere.
But while he’s won countless fans with his solo recordings and A Winged Victory For The Sullen – who released their debut album in 2011, with the latest, The Undivided Five, out on Ninja Tune in 2019 – it was the three solo pieces O’Halloran composed for Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette (2006) which delivered his most significant breakthrough. Since then, he’s arguably become even better known for his work on Transparent (2014-17), which won him an Emmy, and Lion (2016), his first collaboration with Bertelmann, which earned nominations for an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA and a Critics’ Choice Award. These, though, are just some of an abundance of scores he’s shaped. Others include films like Drake Doremus’s Like Crazy (2011), which won Sundance’s Grand Jury Prize, and Breathe In (2013), starring Guy Pearce and Felicity Jones, as well as TV shows like the BBC’s forthcoming adaptation of A Christmas Carol, directed by Nick Murphy – with whom, alongside Bryan Senti, O’Halloran worked on 2018’s BAFTA-nominated Save Me – and for which he has again collaborated with Bertelmann.
In addition, O’Halloran’s work has distinguished other artistic forms. In 2014, A Winged Victory scored ATOMOS on behalf of Wayne McGregor, the Resident Choreographer of The Royal Ballet in London, while in 2019, at Minneapolis’s Liquid Music Series, he premiered an electronic composition, 1 0 0 1, with choreographer Fukiko Takase, who’d taken part in that earlier endeavour. Furthermore, having signed to DG earlier in the year, in November 2019 he released his debut EP, Sundoor, which offers a 20-minute piece entitled “196 Hz”, adapted from a 2017 site-specific composition for cross-disciplinary American artist Slater Bradley’s Sundoor At World’s End. 
Whether the latter pieces – neither of which feature piano – are indicative of the path he’ll pursue next is known only to O’Halloran, and possibly not even to him. He recently reunited with his old Dēvics partner Lov on a song for her forthcoming solo album, while another track with Ane Brun will soon see the light of day, and he also appears on the final, posthumous Leonard Cohen album, Thanks For The Dance (2019), which stands in stark contrast to his work producing the final track on Katy Perry’s Witness (2017). Frankly, there’s little point in trying to second-guess where he might head next, and with studios in both Reykjavík and Los Angeles, he remains keen to go wherever the muse takes him. It’s how he’s always worked best, and it’s exactly what one would hope. After all, O’Halloran concludes, “Deutsche Grammophon are incredibly supportive in exploring ideas beyond chamber and orchestral music, and that’s what feels exciting...”
