William Breakspear is a Liverpool based Glitch Hop and Ghetto Funk producer who blends bass aggression with nuskool drums and clattery breaks to create a unique yet familiar sound.

He started writing and producing with an Atari ST and Akai S950 at the age of 16, using his parent’s record collection of Rock, Soul and Reggae as inspiration. He soon moved to Liverpool to pursue an education in Sound Technology in which he gained his B.A hons. Shortly after this, he started producing and DJing with the successful Nu-skool Breaks and DnB crew Entity, and later under solo moniker Slim Blue.

In recent times, Breakspear has set up Skanky Panky Records alongside Buddha from SixAM and is releasing original tracks and remixes on SPR (UK), Empathy Recordings (NZ) and Supalife Records (France).  He is also producing his first album for Cut La Roc’s imprint Rocstar (UK), which features vocals from Credit To The Nation, Ashley Slater (Freak Power), MC Coppa and more.
