Profile:
Currently assembling his sonic robots in the dark cracks between the east London grime and the south London dubstep scenes, Thornton Heath based producer Plasticman is perfectly placed to comment on the cross fertilization between these two Mc led and Dj led movements. Hosting a primetime (Saturday’s 7-9pm) slot on pirate radio, Plasticman is a typical example of the interchange that can been found on the east London based station Rinse Fm.

Plasticman comes from a UK Garage background amazingly, and claims to have never heard of Richie Hawtin until very recently!
This isn't a bad thing though - as his music shows, originality in his sound shines miles higher than any other producers in this new movement of "UK Grime" - a sound in which perhaps only Dizzee Rascal has achieved a higher accolade of honours for his "hard graft".
I got the chance to meet him whilst he was on tour in the States, really nice guy - his attitude will take him to big places in the industry if he carries on the way he's going.
Keep up the great work Plasticman :)
