Popular British production and remix artist who's contributions as
Quivver, and as part of the
Tilt trio helped shape the progressive trance/house movement of the late 90's. Graham originally began producing tracks in the early 90's under the alias
Skanna, releasing several 12"s on the label of the same name. In 1994, he was signed to
A & M Records Ltd. (UK) where, along with co-writer Neil Barry as
Quivver, he produced and released 'Saxy Lady' and 'Twist & Shout'. The tracks were hits being spun by popular DJs such as
Paul Oakenfold,
John Digweed, and
Pete Tong. After a shake up at A & M,
Quivver was signed to
Paul Oakenfold's
Perfecto label in 1995 where he released 'Believe In Me' and began producing with
Mick Parks and
Mick Wilson as
Tilt. The trio went on to become one of the biggest groups of the late 90's producing several popular singles, including the top 20 hit 'Invisible' (with the help of guest vocalist
Grace).
In 1999, Graham split from
Tilt to pursue a solo career. He was signed to
VC Recordings, a sub-label of
Virgin Records (UK), where he released 'Everything's Not You' as
Stoneproof. He also released the massive 'Stage One' (as
Space Manoeuvres) on
Hooj Choons. Both tracks were massive successes bringing John Graham back to the forefront of the progressive scene.
2000 saw the return of the
Quivver moniker with the release of the progressive hits 'One Last Time' and 'She Does'. In 2001, he mixed the 5th volume of the popular Transport series, and in 2002, he formed his own record label,
Boz Boz Recordings. Today,
Quivver remains one of the most important and popular production artists in electronic music.
