DT884 – Huxley

Share

Known for his versatile production style that effortlessly blends house, techno, and UK garage, Huxley has consistently pushed boundaries with each release.

In recent years, Huxley has focused on expanding his influence by launching his own record label, Dumb Safari. Founded in 2022, Dumb Safari has become a platform for Huxley to explore and share his eclectic sound.

The label’s releases, such as the debut track “AFN,” showcase a raw and dark funk aesthetic, setting the tone for the imprint’s future direction. Notably, the label has also provided a space for emerging artists, with releases like Uncle Knows’ “925” EP that taps into old-school rave culture.

Huxley’s own discography continues to grow, with recent releases like his remix of “Shadow Rush” on Poker Flat and his collaborative efforts on “Saving You” with Wouter S underlining his continued relevance in the scene.

His work, marked by a refusal to stay confined to one genre, has seen him featured on major labels like Toolroom and Knee Deep In Sound, ensuring his place as a respected figure in electronic music. 

Today, he joins us on the podcast. Listen to it below, on Mixcloud or iTunes here.

What’s your personal favourite track on it?
Huxley – Luv4Granted. I just made it so that’s probably why!!

What’s the special ingredient in this mix?
I actually got to do it live at Pirate Studios. It was fun to just mess around and record the mix in somewhere that isn’t my house!

Tell us about your next release.
My next release is ‘House It Up’ coming out on DFTD on September 6th. It’s my first time back on a Defected label for years. Watch out for many more to come from me there in the near future…

What have you got coming up?
A bunch of releases on DFTD, he.she.they, a new rereleased version of Box Clever and tons more!

And finally, do you have a special message for our readers?
It’s great to be back doing what I love again. I’ve got my passion back for playing and making music and the new stuff I’m doing is really feeling like some of my best stuff for years. I’ve found my groove again. Let’s go.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
