Biografía
One of the most respected DJs and producers in house music - Friend Within is now 10 years in the game
Arriving almost fully-formed in early 2013, Friend within created a stir hiding behind mysterious press shots and dropping EPs on Dirtybird and Hypercolour. Rumours of Friend Within’s real identity were rife and his immaculate productions thrust him to the forefront of the UK house scene helping to shape the burgeoning Deep House sound which saw Disclosure sign the now classic ‘The Renegade’
The rise kept on coming in the form of remixes and collaborations with Disclosure, John Legend, London Grammar, Ella Eyre and Nero culminating in a BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix comprised entirely of his own tracks
Behind the decks Friend Within has played all over the world with residencies at Ministry of Sounds, Stealth and Mint Club plus shows at the best events in the land - Warehouse Project, Fabric, Parklife, Creamfields, Printworks, Space, Amnesia, EDC, Exchange LA, Splash House, Revolver and The epic Arcadia stage at Glastonbury
The Friend Within discography is a site to behold: collabs with Friendly Fires, A-Trak, Kideko and Shadow Child; tracks on DFTD, Dirtybird, PETS, Hypercolour, Solotoko, Rinse, Fool’s Gold, Stress and, most recently Toolroom which released his debut album ‘Hope’
