SNAP ANT

You Make Me Basic live;



'THIS IS JUT!' AVAILABLE NOW ON INVICTA HI-FI RECORDS!



Snap Ant

was born in a crash outside a small English parish and after a small insurance payout. Having previously recorded with a partner under the 'Omnium' moniker for Ntone records, Snap Ant decided to go solo and subsequently lose his marbles by creating bizarre instrumental electronic music for various releases and remixes.



Slightly nauseous and sick to the teeth of an Atari screen, he moved to Liverpool, met Pop Levi and together formed the free cosmic pond group 'Super Numeri' with Karl Webb. Signing to Ninja Tune in 2000, Super Numeri went on to record and release the critically acclaimed Great Aviaries album but not before Snap Ant had laid the foundations for his own debut record.



'This Is Jut' was recorded whilst living in Adlington House, a hub of crazed individuals, artists and a variety of exceedingly dubious characters. The album toys with various sounds and influences from experimental electronica to rock to bossanova whilst still retaining it's own distinctive jutting style. Signing to

Invicta Hi-Fi, Snap Ant's first single was the 'Execute The Ping EP'

in 2003 released on transparent yellow vinyl. The EP contained 'Saviour Piece' which went on to be included on the Ladytron compilation 'Softcore Jukebox' on Emperor Norton (prior to this Snap Ant had also remixed the seminal Ladytron single 'Playgirl'). Execute The Ping also included the country tinged 'Give Up The Juice' that was included on the Cloak01 compilation released in Japan on the Rallye label.



The second single 'You Make me Basic' was a 'car crash of Teutonic efficiency and softly spoken vocal harmonies' (DJ Magazine). The final single before the release of 'This Is Jut' is 'Grumpy Nymph', a song about diseased minds.



'This Is Jut' available for download at Bandcamp.
