Classically trained piano player, soccer star,
producer
extraordinaire! This is the one and only Michael Woods!
Michael Woods is an
artist that has been amongst music his whole entire life, even his first
memory is that of sitting at a piano and he was practicing every day from
the age of 3. Classically trained at Pimlico’s Trinity College of Music
and ahe could be found in the school music rooms at lunch, where, like
coveted treasure, lay an ancient Apple Mac and Korg M1 upon which Michael
would blast out warped electronic odysseys.
Even at weekends his talent was exploited in percussion for the London
Symphony Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall It didn’t stop there, next
it was the trumpet, then guitar, followed by drums as Michael extended his
musical knowledge.
This knowledge and talent built momentum for Michael’s music. First up
there was the globally acclaimed remix of Energy 52’s Café Del Mar.
Then there were tracks such as Dropzone and the more recent Yemba. More
recently we have seen Michael deliver club smashing remixes of deadmau5
– Strobe and Chris Lake & deadmau5 – I Said. All music has
received consistent backing from Pete Tong and other key radio DJ’s.
Michael is an artist that has seen many years of the industry, he has
produced under many alter egos some of which have given him great chart
success and made serious waves on the Buzz and Cool Cut charts.
He has remixed Grammy-award nominee Adele, Xenomania signing Gabriella
Cilmi and MOBO-winner Nate James. However, since launching new label
Diffused Music in September ‘08, priorities have become his own
productions and pushing his label.
Michael spends most of his time based in his studio in London exploring
his creativity and becoming more confident with his sound. Needless to say
music is Michaels priority in 2010 as he pushes to deliver great sounds
via the diffused label and influential releases with other artistes.
