A pair of producers who have been working together for the past five years now and showing huge promise, the boys brought us an abundance of musical gems before they delivered their debut EP on Hospital in March 2013.Recent recruits to the scene, Fred V & Grafix were initially into live music, with Fred's guitar talents still coming into good use in the duo's tracks. The pair converted to D+B when they heard Pendulum's controversial and genre-changing album Hold Your Colour and High Contrast's sophomore High Society. Influenced by an eclectic range of sounds outside of D+B, from electro/French house, ambient and hip hop, Fred V & Grafix cite artists such as Flying Lotus, Bonobo, Dilla and Jimi Hendrix as key inspirations, alongside fellow Hospital artists High Contrast and Logistics.Having already released music on Allsorts and Talkin Beatz, and received Radio One support from Zane Lowe and Annie Mac, Fred V & Grafix made their first appearance on Hospital as part of the Fifteen Years Of Hospital Records album with Find My Way and have continued to take the label by storm. As well as producers within their own right, Fred V & Grafix have also stunned us with their remixes of Emeli Sande '" Daddy, Skepta '" Hold On, Camo & Krooked '" All Fall Down and not forgetting their amazing remix of Rudimental's chart-topping No. 1 hit Feel The Love.Since signing to Hospital, Fred V & Grafix impressed with their Sick Music 3 contribution Major Happy and the epic Purple Gates which appeared on Hospitality D&B 2013 before finally bringing us their debut solo release, the awe-inspiring Goggles EP which dropped in March 2013. With plenty of charisma, talent and the backing of many of the industry's key players, one thing's for sure '" as we look ahead, the future is most definitely bright for Fred V & Grafix.Exclusive Limited Capacity Event.Tickets via http://www.dashtickets.co.nz/event/njysk4qrv$15 - Earlybirds SOLD OUT!$20 - General Admission$25 - Final Release$40 - Door SalesEarlybird tickets for this show have Sold Out!Thursday 23rd May @ Coherent on K'Road, AucklandSupport lineup to be announced.
