Funktion Fridays presents Friday, June 29, 2007 AQUASKY Passenger, 777 Aquasky Aquasky have made there imprint in the elctronica scene, notching up many releases on some of dance music's most respected labels. The trio also known as Brent Newitt, Kieron Bailey and Dave Wallace started working on music together back in 1995 releasing their music via seminal drum and bass label Moving Shadow. In 1999 they continued with Moving Shadow, releasing two long players titled 'Bodyshock' and 'Aftershock'. During the recording of 'Aftershock' Aquasky were coaxed into producing breakbeats by Adam Freeland who took the trio under his wing and gave them their early exposure to the scene. Since then they have release numerous successful EP's and albums, such as; 'Sureshot', '777'(This release was the first breaks record to have fused drum and bass, old school rave and breakbeat into one mould and subsequently kick-started the 'Bassline Breaks' genre), 'Beat The System', 'Stayfresh', and 'Teamplayers'. In there years of experience Aquasky has collaborated with some of the biggest and baddest names, including; The Ragga Twins, FreQ Nasty, Kool Keith, Phil Hartnol from Orbital, DJ Icey, The Autobots and Elhornet of ozzie d&b band Pendulum to name but a few. Aquasky's music has appeared on many adverts, films and TV programs over the years, most recently the title music to the recent Ali G in the USA series. Their music has also become very popular with computer gaming companies, having numerous licenses achieved including the seminal Tony Hawk game. To assist dealing with the major companies and labels, Aquasky set up their own publishing company Skyhigh Music, administered by Bucks Music Group, the largest independent publishing company in the UK.
