Junkyard Scientists
Junkyard Scientists are a 10-piece funk and soul outfit, born through a mish-mash of friends, broken bands and chance encounters around the thriving music scenes in London and Reading. With a passion for live performance and a do-it-yourself mentality, Junkyard have honed and fine-tuned a stage show that has risen the bar wherever they've played.
Influenced by soul/ funk pioneers such as Sly & The Family Stone, Curtis Mayfield and Stevie Wonder, Junkyard Scientists pair the big band sound of classic soul & funk with the contemporary stylings of Timbaland, Jamiroquai and Michael Jackson.
With all production, song writing, promotion & art work done by members of the band, Junkyard are a complete creative force, but their incendiary live shows and big hooks are what keeps people talking and singing for days after. Having already run their own successful residency, called 'That's The Jam', in Reading for the past 12 months, Junkyard Scientists are now looking forward to teaming up with Graffiti Breakz to bring their unique brand of funk and dance to the London scene.
Supporting big name acts such as The Beat, Ash & Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly. and captivating crowds of all ages and backgrounds it is clear to promoters and audiences alike that the Junkyard party is an experience not to be missed!
"Junkyard Scientists manage to add a whole new history and vitality to funk music, twisting it into a fresh new Hip Hop bitten beast. The tunes are all carefully manipulated, yet delivered with such verve and musical desire that heart and head can't help but agree. Junkyard Scientists - better than sex and nothing like Lenny Kravitz."

Apply The Breaks
Take 3 to 7 turntables, three mixers, 3 – 5 DJs and add a host for flavour. Now throw in some humour, a large scoop of oomph, stir vigorously, then present to a full dance floor and allow to boil for 60 – 120 minutes. What do you have? Apply the Breaks (ATB)!
Think Scratch Perverts or the former Drunken All-stars with a sense of humour and you’re about there;
Formed in May 2003, ATB consists of DJ’s Mack The Knife, C Smoove, Rob Focuz, Idle, and Daddy Fingaz, and host and K.I.D, who combine in various configurations to produce an energetic DJ show covering the full spectrum of breakbeat music.
It’s certainly not a scene for the feint-hearted, and the unique live experience continues to grow as the crew approach their 5th year as residents at rave-giants Raindance as well as headline slots at various events up and down the country such as Epidemik, Waveform, Vinyl Touch etc.
Individually, the crew have their own projects, which include promoting the long-running Monday Club night at The Horn in St Albans and have held the fortnightly 4-6pm Sunday slot on underground radio station RAW FM for over 7 years. C Smoove and Daddy Fingaz also have a bi-weekly show on internet radio station iBreaks, in addition to a regular podcast available from iTunes. MC K.I.D. is well known for his ease at getting the crowd members involved in the atmosphere that leads to a top night as well as appearing on MTV Base and Channel U with Vics and Trix. Idle is well in demand for his top rate scratching skills, so much so that he spends more time in clubs than he does at home, as well as single handily keeping kettle chips and Cornish pasties alive. Check the Armitage Skanks Show every Tuesday from 7-9pm on NSB Radio to hear more of him.
The crew also produce their own tracks, the first release from Dekoy and Rob Focuz hit stores in April 2007 on Control Breaks Records. This was well received, spending the first 2 weeks of its release in the top 10 download and vinyl charts at Juno and Breakbeat Online. The follow up, Bob Hopeless came out in December on Diverted Traffic Records to more critical acclaim you can pick it up at online music store Beatport. A third release by the pair, Colonel K, is due out soon - also on Diverted Traffic.
