Last Magpie

As his name would suggest, Last Magpie picks up, gathers and masterfully combines musical gems from across the board to create and influence his finely tuned house and 2step hybrids. He aims to keep his style quite open and unspecific to any one genre under his Magpie moniker drawing from elements of house, techno, dub and garage (UK & US) with a hint of old school jungle These creative habits stem from Magpie’s early interests in electronic music. His tastes and influences expanded from Jungle and hardcore further into more ambient house and progressive sounds. Last Magpie’s love for underground music as a whole is clearly present and valuable in his work. Last Magpie has notably chalked up a number of well-received releases for Hypercolour and its little sister imprint, Losing Suki. Without fail, each release has pushed both his and the label’s sound forward with an adept skill of crafting something new each time. As a vastly experienced DJ, his style spans across an equally broad spectrum, expertly throwing together highlights from genres far and wide. A mix of house, techno and garage, new and old, keeps the vibes fresh and interesting. Don’t be surprised to find a throw-back of early Chicago House or Detroit Techno seamlessly sandwiched in-between more modern cuts with a distinctive sound, shaped by earlier influences. An open book, The Last Magpie.
