The Interview
Hi LM1, thanks for taking the time to chat with us. Would you like to introduce yourself and tell us a bit about how you got to be where you are today?
I started off making progressive house back in 1995 and had 6 vinyl releases between 98-02 under the name "Red Devil" with "Gamelan" being featured on Sasha & Digweed "Northern exposure 3". I took a long break from music and found melodic drum and bass in earnest in 2008. I starting out remixing american group "Celldweller" in a dnb style and 3 subsequent remixes were released commercially. From there ive honed my own sound to where i am on many labels today with support from some big names in dnb and now run my own label "Offworld" which ive been doing since early 2010.
Where does the name LM1 come from?
Its a short hand version of "Luminousone" which is a tribute name given to the buddha.
Could you describe your sound to anyone that may be new to LM1?
My style has been evolving throughout the years but theres always been a strong melodic style to it with pads,atmospherics and riffs.
As some people may or may not know, you are the head honcho for Offworld Recordings (www.offworldrecordings.com), what can we expect for the future from the Offworld camp with regards to artists and releases?
I have lots of new music forthcoming from the likes of myself LM1, Silence groove, Actraiser, Antibreak, Glen E.stone , Seathaksy and Shadowboxerz. A special minimal compilation is coming soon and im launching a sub label for this style and others later in the year calledAlterra.
Is being a DJ, Producer & Label manager your full time job or do you do something else?
Its a full time job for me at the moment as im in the process of relocating.
Do you listen to or produce other genres of music aside from drum and bass?
While drum and bass is my favourite music to listen to ive always been fond of ambient & trance and Im really feeling ambient and ambient dubstep at the moment and plan to make more of this style and experiment.
What other DJs/Producers are you really feeling at the moment? As well as the artists on my label i really like the music of Seba, Paradox, Electrosoul, Nuage, Stunna, Technicolour & Komatic. Theres lots of new artists coming through at the moment with fresh sounds its very encouraging.
You currently hold down a bi monthly BassDrive radio show how did that come about?
DJ Amnesty from bassdrive approached me for a guest mix,and after making a couple of mixes for him which were well received one of the station managersOverfiendheard them and got in touch and asked if id like to do a show.
The team here at Different Drumz are very proud to introduce the launch of The Different Drumz Podcast Series with a exclusive mix and interview with none other than Komatic (Shogun Audio/Viper Recordings/Spearhead Records)!

The Interview Hi Komatic would you like to introduce yourself and tell us a bit about how you got to be where you are today? My name is Andy Komatic and I live in Bedford, UK. I've been DJ'ing for about 15 years now and have been producing for around 7 years, with a few releases along the way.
Where does the name Komatic come from? Trade secret!! I believe you primarily started out as a DJ and production was something you later got involved in, did you start producing because you wanted to get more bookings as a DJ? I 100% started producing because I wanted to get more bookings as a DJ. I'll always be a DJ first, producer second. I tried for years to make it just on the DJ'ing and had some success, but I knew that to get to the next level I had to be making music. Now I have the added bonus of being able to play my own music out, as well as other people's. You’re playing at the next Different Drumz event, what can we expect from a typical Komatic set? My sets can vary from place to place depending on the crowd, the vibe and what works at that moment in time. But I keep it very varied, energetic and try to involve the crowd as much as possible. I still go out, go raving and now I have the added bonus of being able to stand up there and make people dance. I always feel just as much a part of the crowd standing up there than I ever did. What has been the highlight of your DJing career so far? Being asked to come and play at the Different Drumz night of course!! I guess the main highlights for me are just being asked for and sharing that experience with so many different people. Because drum and bass is such a worldwide scene now, I've met some fantastic friends along the way and got to play at some crazy, crazy parties! DJ'ing in Romania, on a beach, was a definite highlight. As I played the last record, the sun started to come up over the mountain range in the background. I'll never forget that for as long as I live.
Is being a DJ and producer your full time job or do you do something else? I would love for it to be my full time job but at the moment I'm still holding down a day job. To DJ and produce full time is still my ultimate dream, and has been since I first started mixing all those years ago.
Do you listen to other genres of music aside from drum and bass? I listen to all sorts of music from hip-hop to house, rock, indie,
