Hailing from Manchester, SILO has been making music for over 10 years. In the late 90's he was heavily influenced by the DIY attitude of labels such as the now defunct Grand Central Records. Years later, after soaking up the sounds of the city, SILO released his debut album 'Substance Over Style' in 2007 via digital download. A mix of lost and found samples, heavy beats and northern soul, Substance over Style is a manifesto of parts, a deliberate statement against the modern vacuousness found in all walks of life and against a system that perpetuates the over-privileged. SILO has forthcoming shows in Manchester in 2008.
