London-based Bitbasic aka. Simon Haycock, has released several EPs and albums through other netlabels such as Monotonik and Testpilot Music before; Bitbasic started his musical adventures at the age of 15. Playing out with a laptop and 40h monome, Simon uses his self-written software ‘dj64′ which modells a mixer and two turntables virtually.

As the music magazine Drowned in Sound has coined Bitbasic’s virtuosity “in nodding to the likes of Nathan Fake, Four Tet and Paul White among others, Haycock is [...]bringing together equally excellent and equally diverse genres and wedding them into a sound distinctly his own.”

Bitbasic has recently played live at the Unique Beats Festival 2010 in Edinburgh as rec72 netlabel mates Pandacetamol did in 2009.
