Boymerang AKA born: Graham Sutton Years Active Performed As Graham Sutton Genres Electronica Styles Experimental Jungle, Electronica, Jungle/Drum 'N Bass, Club/Dance Instruments Producer Tones Ominous, Paranoid, Gloomy, Trippy, Hypnotic, Tense/Anxious, Detached, Clinical, Nocturnal, Brooding Labels Regal (2), Leaf (2) Boymerang is the drum'n'bass aegis of London-based producer Graham Sutton, better known as one-half of celebrated early-'90s industrial pop group Bark Psychosis. Covering similar territory as dark ambient/electronic dance groups such as Coil and Front 242, Bark Psychosis released only one album and a pair of singles for Virgin before splitting in 1994, due to intense internal conflict. Bark Psychosis' last gig "together" (actually it was just Sutton) was the electronic Music Festival in Russia, alongside Seefeel, Autechre, Ultramarine and Aphex Twin, a lineup that reflected what for Sutton had by then become his primary musical interest; experimental dance music. Upon his return to the U.K., he immersed himself in the drum'n'bass scene, learning the ropes from artists such as Ed Rush, Trace, Fabio, Luke Vibert, Goldie, and Doc Scott before releasing a self-titled EP on 4AD defect Tony Morley's experimental Leaf label. A mixture of tight jungle programming and frantic, armchair-oriented experimentation, the single did loads for Sutton's rep (to say nothing of Leaf's). Following an additional EP for Leaf and a remix of 2Player's "Extreme Possibilities" for Ninja Tune (next to Vibert in his Wagon Christ guise), Sutton contributed material to a pair of compilations on Jon Tye's Lo Recordings and inked a non-exlusive contract with EMI. Remixes for Collapsed Lung and Sufi followed, as well as an EP for Grooverider's Prototype label and a track on the Volume compilation, Breakbeat Science. His debut full-length Balance of the Force appeared on Royal/EMI in May 1997. — Sean Cooper Similar Artists: Fabio Doc Scott DJ Trace Dom & Roland Arcon 2 T.Power Grooverider Optical Adam F Spring Heel Jack Plug Junior Varsity KM Roots and Influences: Goldie Ed Rush Performed Songs By: Graham Sutton Tech-Step - from: "Jungle/Drum'n'Bass" map Albums: 1997 Balance of the Force Regal EPs 1994 Boymerang Leaf s 1995 Pro Active EP [EP] Leaf 1996 Still Prototype s Grooverider Presents Grooverider Presents: The...
