Dro Carey debuted with a limited vinyl release on Will Bankhead's label The Trilogy Tapes in December 2010, an EP called Venus Knock. Since then the 19 year-old was named as one of the top ten producers to watch in 2011 by FACT Magazine, was included in esteemed UK selector Ben UFO's Rinse mix series entry, and has collaborated with the former Roll Deep member Trim.
Dro Carey's music assimilates everything from classic techno and house to R'n'B, rap, juke and grime, to produce a peculiar skewed aesthetic. These original productions have earned him acclaim in a diverse range of online and print publications, including Pitchfork, Resident Advisor, DJ Mag, The Wire and NME, as well as the interest of DJs such as Mary Anne Hobbs and Benji B. With the release of his new EP - Journey with the Heavy - on Ramp Recordings on December 5th, Carey looks set to build on his strong year as he progresses into 2012.
