Femix
Bio
DJ/producer FEMIX's (formerly Forest Electronic) mesmerising but spirited sound is a distinctive blend of drum and bass, tech and deep house, and techno that looks to bring the listener into his world. Based in his beloved city of Plymouth, a place he feels is highly underrated for its underground music scene, he produces all on his own, focusing on exaggerating atmosphere and ambience in his tracks, and experimenting with other styles such as neurofunk and instrumental hip-hop. In addition to collaborating with several of the South West’s underground talents, including Toadsmoor Sound, he also showcases his mixing craft with his trusty Numark NVII throughout the city.
Born Ned Fellenor, he first heard techno and tech house music at 16 on a school trip to Geneva, Switzerland. The next year, he started producing and self-releasing, honing his skills both behind the mix and behind the decks, eventually starting to DJ live at the age of 20. His influences emerged from original tech house producers like Macromism and Dosem, then spread to include classic drum and bass producers such as Calyx and Noisia, classic hip-hop producers like Funky DL, and recently, modern hip-hop beats, such as those found in Germany.
Prior to signing with Imperial Media, he self-released various clips and singles on SoundCloud and packaged singles on Spotify. His first release with the label, Ritualistic Arts, came out in 2019 and the following year, he released Police Dogz as part of the aforementioned Toadsmoor Sound’s Animals EP. He has also performed various sets since 2019, including the Hot Air Balloon sets at the University of Plymouth and Funkagenda Presents The 10th Birthday Series Road Trip at Factory, Plymouth.
2021 saw him release his Acidemia EP in May, while continuing to play sets around the Southwest. Keep up with and learn more about FEMIX on Instagram!
