Dylan Rhymes

(London, UK)

Lot49 // Nexus Artists



Dance music has been the biggest part of Rhymes' (otherwise known as
Marvin Beaver - and yes, he's heard all of the jokes) life from a young
age. Inspired by early hip hop and electro a la Kraftwerk and Doug E.
Fresh, Marvin purchased his first set of decks at 15 and caught the bug
in a bad way.

While working for British Airways after leaving school, a chance meeting
with a nu-beat-writing co-worker who was selling his equipment to go
travelling led to Marvin's first "studio". Supplemented with the now
legendary Roland TR808 and TR909 drum machines Beaver started, as most
people did in dance music in the late eighties, by putting out a few
acid house white labels. Before long the talent was noticed by owners of
the seminal Wax Factory imprint, Ron Wells and Chris Simmons, who began
to release more of his material. Dave Pearce's Reachin Records also
bought into the young producers skills, fuelling the fire and enabling
Beaver to set up a commercial studio with his mate Justin Drake in the
early 1990s.

Rhythm Design Studios in Uxbridge became the birthplace of Outsiders,
Drake and Beaver's much-lauded project for Junior Boy's Own Chicago
influenced Jus Trax label. Friend, DJ and London mainstay Clive Henry
then joined the team and the trio became Peace Division, a project that
gained props from every corner of dance music without exception.

Leaving Peace Division to focus on his own material, Beaver invented the
Dylan Rhymes moniker (a reference to Bob Dylan) and set about working on
a breakbeat track for Junior Boys Own. The result was 1996s "Naked &
Ashamed" which, due to a Smirnoff ad campaign, became one the label's
biggest tracks (no mean feat considering JBO's pedigree). Since then he
has cemented his reputation as one of the leaders of the breakbeat and
tech house scenes through his output through Kingsize Records, Meat
Katie's Whole9Yards and Lot49 labels and his own Blue Black imprint.

Besides original work, Beaver has also remixed the likes of Deep Dish,
Infusion, Dave Gahan, Overseer, Unkle and Puretone while he has
collaborated with Meat Katie, Christian J, Force Mass Motion (as
Silencer) and Anthony J Gorry (on his 2004 album, Dead Famous).
