Ed Tangent (Psy-Core Rec/Phantasm Rec)
From an early age Ed found himself drawn to mixing sounds (on an old four track), and the emerging Electonic music medium being developed in the 1970’s, citing the Band ‘SKY’ as an early influence. By the early 80’s he started DJing , influenced by the early electro / Hip Hop scratch DJs’ and started looping breaks and beats from old rare groove tracks whist mixing into the new Electro sound. By the end of the 80s’ he moved up to Manchester UK where he emerged himself into the Rave culture and free party scene.
After several years of playing and promoting Techno and acid sounds at events around the North West Uk Ed discovered the Goa Trance sound. He teamed up in 1995 with Matt Allaby (Nano), Christos K (Globalsunrise) and Steve Self (Spiral Trax)to start Global Sunrise, packing out monthly events in Manchester. He now runs these events with fellow DJ Tekno Hippie under the name Sunrise, which still runs to this day. Ed got recognition for his skills as a DJ and played across the UK at many events including guest spots for the original Psy super club ‘Return To the Source’ at venues such as Brixton Acadamy, the Rocket, Tyson Street and MegaDog Festival Events. Ed also found success further afield in Europe and was a guest Dj at the ‘Hill Top’ Goa, for their Millenium NYE party.
Ed has established a strong following UK wide playing regular gigs each month and has a busy Festival schedule each year playing events such as The Glade, Sunrise Celebration, Waveform, The Bulldog Bash, Solfest, Bearded Theory and Shamania.He also runs his night Sunrise at festivals and demand for his musical influence at events is growing fast so that 2009 will see Ed not only playing many Stages but Managing them as well.
Recogintion for his skill and professionalism, Phantasm Records made him a label DJ and Ed now represents them alongside fellow artists Eskimo, John Phantasm, Cosmosis and Dickster. Early 2008 Ed started Psy-Core records promoting the Full on sound with acts signed including BPM, Bigabo, Hologram, Sigma and has started to establish a world wide fan base who look for the quality and consistency that a DJ of Ed’s Caliber and experience offers to electronic music lovers everywhere.
