ianboddy Ian Boddy Middlesbrough Ian Boddy has been at the forefront of the UK electronic music scene since 1983 when he both performed at the very first UK Electronica Festival in Milton Keynes and released his first vinyl album The Climb. In the 4 years preceding this event he had been experimenting at an Arts Council funded studio in Newcastle whilst at University. His early work resulted in 3 cassette only releases on the Mirage label as well as several local concerts. These early tapes showed Boddy gradually forming his own style through a long self teaching process in the techniques of analogue synthesis and tape manipulation. After the success of 1983 he went on to release another 2 vinyl albums, Spirits and Phoenix, as well as performing several concerts throughout the UK. However it wasn't until 1989 that his first CD release, Odyssey, came out on the EM label Surreal to Real. After Drive, his second release on the Surreal label Boddy formed his own record label, Something Else Records , through which he released a further 4 solo albums as well as reissuing his 3 early vinyl albums and the cassette only release Jade on CD. Furthermore he released three collaborative CD releases with some of Europes finest exponents of EM, namely Andy Pickford, Ron Boots and Mark Shreeve. He continued to expand his concert appearences which have now surpassed over 100 events with concerts in the UK ( including several more UK Electronica appearances, two shows at the Jodrell Bank Planetarium & two at the National Space Centre), Holland ( five festival appearances ), Germany and three shows in Philadelphia, USA. Alongside these mainstream EM activities Boddy has also built for himself a formidable reputuation as a sound designer having produced a series of sample CD's & virtual instruments for sampling specialists Time & Space. In late 2008 Boddy set up his own downloadable sample CD company with the Waveforms series of sample packs. Furthermore he is also involved in library music having composed 11 such CD's for the publishing company deWolfe as well as producing some music for a computer games company. Thus we come up to the present with the formation of his DiN label in 1999. Unlike his private Something Else Records the DiN label was set up to allow Boddy to actively form different collaborations with a wide variety of musicians as well as release other artists music. DiN has achieved widespread critical acclaim for it's adventurous outlook at the world of EM and has seen 39 releases with Boddy being involved in 21 of these ( five solo and sixteen collaborative projects ). In 2008 DiN expanded it's catalogue with a series of download only releases featuring Boddy in concert both as a solo performer and with other DiN artists. ianboddy’s popular tracks Tone Science Module No.9 Theories And Conjectures Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2024-03-16T10:37:08Z Chromatic Lightning Cage by Dave Bessell (DiN84) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2024-02-12T09:56:14Z Fragmented by Parallel Worlds (DiN83) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2024-01-15T09:38:03Z Tone Science Module No.8 Tone Science Live Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-09-24T08:30:08Z Tone Science Module No.7 Cause and Effect Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-03-20T12:39:49Z The Turning by Nigel Mullaney (DiN67) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2021-06-21T08:29:35Z The View From Vega by Benge (DiN82) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-10-28T13:38:06Z The Homeland Of Electricity by Scanner (DiN72) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2022-05-23T10:56:12Z Hyperincandescent by Polypores (DiN71) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2022-03-23T10:32:10Z Multizonal Mindscramble by Polypores (DiN81) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-06-26T14:01:49Z A Stray Ending by Surface 10 (DiN77) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-01-10T09:30:56Z Bluetech - Liquid Geometries (DiN57) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2018-10-29T11:28:48Z Tone Science Module No.5 Integers and Quotients Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2021-04-06T13:45:28Z Singularity by Node (DiN78) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-02-08T10:47:07Z Revolve by Ian Boddy & Erik Wøllo (DiN73) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2022-07-25T14:28:39Z Tractatus Lyra-Organismus by Lyonel Bauchet (DiN79) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2023-05-29T09:16:37Z Coil by Ian Boddy (DiN74)Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2022-09-17T11:43:34Z Stay Serge by ianboddy published on 2017-06-14T11:22:46Z Tone Science Module No.3 Cosines and Tangents Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2019-09-04T12:23:38Z Tone Science Module No.2 Elements and Particles Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2018-09-10T14:28:27Z Modulations II by Ian Boddy (DiNDDL27)Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2021-10-11T08:56:15Z Tone Science Module No.4 Form and Function Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2020-08-11T09:34:19Z Dark Ambient demo by ianboddy published on 2014-06-05T09:01:49Z Tone Science Module No.1 Structure and Forces Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2018-01-21T18:10:37Z Beauty & the Beast by ianboddy published on 2012-04-25T18:23:42Z Meridian Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2017-12-11T09:38:00Z Dystopia Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2018-08-04T17:13:17Z Airwaves demo by ianboddy published on 2010-09-30T17:59:48Z The Diver by Lyonel Bauchet (DiN68) Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2021-08-15T14:30:41Z Nevermore by Ian Boddy (DiN69)Demo Mix by ianboddy published on 2021-09-14T08:25:14Z
