DJ Pitch is, in the words of the ever-ubiquitous Resident Advisor, "a man of many hats", but this should not be taken as a lack of direction. Through his tireless efforts as producer, label head, DJ, podcaster and events promoter, he has championed the ever-mutating strands of electronic music for over a decade.

Through his labels TT, All Centre and urtruimage, he has scoured the outer reaches of the internet, corralling nascent sounds into a thoughtfully curated catalogue, while crucially never losing the irreverent quirks that define his findings.

As a producer, Pitch fuses a background in classical piano with the revelatory discovery of dance music in his late teens. His debut album on Edited Arts, entitled 'It's Not What You Said It's Because You Spoke', is his most definitive document to date, placing equal merit on compositional songwriting as it does on sub-frequencies and rhythm, sitting somewhere between the club, the sofa and the bus ride in between.

The full-length sits alongside several releases on both his own labels, as well as an appearance on the 'SHOUTS 2022' compilation from London's Rhythm Section International.

Label-wise, TT is run with co-conspirators Maya Vika and Madjestic Kasual, highlighting idiosyncratic electronic music of all varieties, from experimental pop to dancefloor sidequests. Since 2014, it's been a home for singular visions, housing early releases from sonic outliers such as object blue, Iceboy Violet and Organ Tapes.

All Centre retains the experimental slant of it's sister imprint, but with a laser-guided aim for the dancefloor, allowing it's artists to challenge the space and reject regurgitative banality. Co-run alongside Simkin and Sobolik, the labels monthly release schedule has acted as a nurturing springboard for future heavyweights such as Yushh, Alexis and Toumba. Going forward, both labels will continue to join the dots between the URL and IRL sprawls, with consistent releases and regular club nights.
