We caught up with the pioneering UK electronic producer and DJ on the run up to the release of his latest project, MAVIS. A tribute of sorts to Mavis Staples in which Ashley collaborates with Candi Staton, Kurt Wagner, Edwyn Collins and many more talented singer-songwriters and artists.
Here, Mr Beedle chats about Boy’s Own, the early days of house and techno in the UK, what lead him to DJing, the new project on !K7 and what the future holds for the former X Press 2, Black Science Orchestra and Ballistic Brothers man.
Check it out, the guy’s an inspiration and a very pleasant chap too. Also, have a listen to this exclusive mixtape Ashley put together for us and buy the new record.
