Biography
Two Armadillos are Giles Smith and Martin Dawson.
Meeting at London’s Phonica records where Martin was working at the time led to this this blossoming partnership and friendship. Giles is one of London’s most in demand DJs (also playing in many of Europe’s hotspots) and has a deep knowledge of House and Techno. He is also co-resident and promoter of the legendary secretsundaze summer parties. Martin, better known for his solo productions under the King Roc moniker, has been working as a music producer and international DJ also based in London. Recent remixes include the likes of New Order and Future Sound Of London.
Their sound can loosely be described as Deep House with more Techno influences, whether that be Detroit, Chicago or more European sounds. Their tracks have warmth, depth and groove, with a strong focus on using natural, live sounding drums. Tunnel of Light EP on Dessous is their first release working together with positive reactions from across the globe. The follow up Butterfly Bee EP is soon out on the UK’s finest Four: Twenty. They also have more material lined up for Dessous and secretundaze music Giles’ new label.
