For over 25 years, Calyx has forged an unprecedented path at the forefront of Drum and Bass. South London-based Larry Cons has amassed a vast discography on the Drum & Bass scene’s most respected labels. Whilst his releases date back to the start of 1998, his history as an accomplished musician dates back to early childhood. Having studied 5 instruments from a young age, Larry has worked on projects and bands in several genres, perhaps most prominently as a guitarist in numerous Jazz and Funk bands, including his own eight-piece outfit ‘Octane’. Whilst the home for most of his music has been the legendary Moving Shadow imprint, he has also had an array of highly-acclaimed releases on Metalheadz, V Recordings, Renegade Hardware, Subtitles, Violence Recs, Audio Couture, ill.skillz Recs, Intercom, Rugged Vinyl, as well as two of his own labels, Thunderous Audio (co-owned with Kontrol) and Momentum Music (co-owned with TeeBee).
In his first decade as a solo artist, he had already amassed an astounding back-catalogue spanning most of the genre’s seminal labels. The debut Calyx album on Moving Shadow; ‘No Turning Back’ was hailed by many as the highlight of 2005. Featuring 6 solo tracks, 4 collaborations (with TeeBee, Gridlok, and ill.skillz), and remixes by Dom & Roland and Hive & Gridlok (remixing together for the first time!), every track gained massive DJ support and the album was in such high demand that three represses had to be made in the first 6 months following its release. After teaming up with TeeBee to form a duo in 2007, the pair reached new heights with chart-topping singles and their acclaimed LPs: ‘Anatomy’, ‘All Or Nothing’, ‘1X1’ and ‘Plates’.
After winning numerous awards including ‘Best Producer’, ‘Best Single’, ‘Best Album’ & ‘Best Video’; a near-constant run of radio plays led to the duo being asked to do a BBC Essential Mix – a true hall-of-fame moment for any artist in any genre. Their mix was then voted as one of the five nominees for ‘Essential Mix of the year’. As Calyx reaches the quarter century mark in his DnB career, he has started a new chapter by returning to his roots as a solo artist, as well as continuing his collaborations with TeeBee. His first solo release on Critical Music has had an enormous impact on the DnB scene: ‘Tempest’ & ‘You Want It All’ topped charts and became a mainstay in headliner’s sets across the DnB spectrum.
