Waxfactor

"If ever there was a person who sought to put personality and charisma back into music, it's Waxfactor. Combining originality, simplicity and funk, Wax's tracks have that much-envied quality of getting you within 30 seconds of hearing them. If there's an artist whose music you hook into quicker out there, we're yet to find them. Having already recorded the Battlecake EP for 7Hills and dropped the "Haunted Hairpiece" track on Lex's "Tile 3" release (alongside Sage Francis, Supersoul and Madlib), Wax joined Needlework to release unquestionably his finest work to date: The Game Face EP. Showcasing just how many skills he can step with, Game Face was an instant hit among the DJs and tastemakers out there, with anyone from Steve Lamacq at Radio 1 to Eddie Temple Morris on XFM bumping it and the likes of Andy Smith, DJ Yoda, Aim, Mr Scruff and more singing its praises. In addition to his work as a producer, Wax also co-presents the Rhythm Incursions show alongside Needlework co-owner Mr Trick."
