James Bennett

Born in the winter of 1985 in Worksop, England, James Bennett is a producer and composer of electronic and acoustic music influenced by a number of respected figures such as Joe Meek, The Beatles, PJ Harvey, Pink Floyd and Raymond Scott. A self-taught piano player and engineer, James began experiments with sequencing and sampling in his teens - under the moniker of :{audiosonic}: - soon aiming to fuse the sound of modern electronic keyboards with the character of vintage recording equipment, to create an ethereal and nostalgic signature sound, all in a home studio.

Later balancing computer sequencing with live performance and improvisation, and heavily involving acoustic instruments in his work, James released Moondogs And Other Toy Animals (2007) via his MySpace page as his first complete mini-album.

He is currently working on a full-length album to continue the vein of his tracks Kid and Out Of Hibernation.
