Mugwump

Borrowing his name from a character from William Burroughs’ famed novel Naked Lunch, Mugwump is an elusive presence, a reputation preceded by in- famous DJ residencies at Belgian clubs and a long-standing recording relation with Cologne’s Kompakt records, ongoing DJ support from Andrew Weatherall as well as a large catalogue of electronic ‘disco-techno’ records, released on leading labels R&S, Gigolo, Cocoon, Endless Flight, Eskimo, Permanent Vacation or International Feel. He runs the Leftorium clubnight in Brussels (www.leftorium.be) and his own Subfield label with indie power-house !K7/ As an artist, he continues to break the mould of his genre-defying output, straddling the divide between indie and electronic. Latest releases saw him working with a band and singing on records. New album 'Drape' fuses the electronic with an occasionally heavy rock feel
