Bio

Base Graffiti is one of Dom Sweeten’s principal hard-house identities, originally associated with the funkier side of his productions. Sweeten’s broader work crosses hard house, breaks and underground club grooves, drawing on the free-party culture and Brighton beach parties he encountered in the early 1990s. He also produces as Defective Audio and forms OD404 with Superfast Oz. After DJing from 1990 to 1997, he concentrated on production and family life, later returning for selected appearances. The studio has remained central: he chooses sounds for their tone rather than treating hoovers, acid lines or house chords as mutually exclusive stylistic commitments. Over time, the distinction between Base Graffiti’s funkier material and Defective Audio’s harder sound became less rigid. Releases such as L.A. Crunch and The Hulk trace that range, while his work continues through Kaktai and Spinball, including Ride the Funk and I Got Styles.
