* Breakage aka James Boyle is never been one to be pigeonholed. Moving effortlessly through styles from drum and bass to dubstep, Breakage has proved himself to be one of the most versatile operators in either scene to date. A prodigious talent, he already has a number of classic releases under his belt but continues to develop his sound. Combining rich tones and a sense of spaciousness in the mix, Breakage's music is both subtle yet devastatingly effective. His debut album, 2006's 'This Too Shall Pass' gained wide spread critical acclaim and included some slower tempo material, hinting at what was to come.
* James signed with Shy FX's mighty Digital Soundboy imprint in 2007, and soon turned heads with the haunting half- time beats of 'Clarendon b/w Shroud'. It came as no surprise that he would make waves in the dubstep community with his next release, 'Callahan b/w Untitled', after having remixed one of the scene's biggest tracks to date, Benga & Coki's 'Night', alongside Shy FX as Digital Soundboy. 2009 has seen Breakage cemented himself as 'one to watchʼ across the British dance music press and taste-making elite. Previous releases were named by Zane Lowe as his ‘Hottest Record In The World’ on his Radio 1 show.
* Following on from the superb 'Together', Breakage released ‘Run Em Oʼft. Roots Manuva b/w 'Higherʼin October 2009 to massive critical acclaim. Then came 'Hard' feat. Newham Generals and David Rodigan in early Dec, which exploded across the clubs and national airwaves, becoming unquestionably one of the biggest underground releases of 2009.
* Now comes the highly anticipated sophomore LP 'Foundationʼ on Digital Soundboy. Features on the record come courtesy of Burial, Roots Manuva, David Rodigan, Newham Generals, Kemo, Zarif, Erin and more. Expect bass heavy quality music with a broad appeal.
* The new single ‘Speechless’ featuring Donaeo has already been described as a ground-breaking record, marrying dubstep and indie with emotive R&B vocals. With a European tour under way, plus remix & production credits for Massive Attack, Florence & The Machine, David Guetta, Virgin Records, Aswad, Sidney Sampson, and many more all
forthcoming, Breakage has laid the foundation. Now he’s ready to blow...
