Somerville & Wilson Bio
Meeting through mutual friends in late 2011, Richard Somerville and Craig Wilson started talking music and life. They quickly realised that they had a strong mutual love for a wide variety in musical tastes across the dance spectrum including a massive passion for Nu Disco and House.
Never pigeonholing themselves to one style when making or playing music, the more they talked the more it became apparent that they had met their musical match. So of course the next natural step was to get in the studio together and see what came out of the newly found “pandora’s box” that is “Somerville & Wilson”.
Within the first session in the studio the boys soon found that not only did they have similar tastes when producing, but an uncanny knack of producing together via something akin to osmosis.
Blending a love of old skool vibes with modern textures and flavours, the boys new they were onto something special with their productions. After finishing 4 tracks and putting them up on their Soundcloud Page, they started to not only get props from around the world including the comment “powerful and evocative! Well done” about their track “Get Me Up” from Italian global stars Ajello, but also interest from labels started to appear. On the 22nd May 2012 they signed with the UK label 'Funk Me Recordings'.
With 5 tracks “Get Me Up”, “50Watt Meg”, “Love Threshold” and "Soul Traffic" (Both Original Version and S&W Remix) signed to 'Funk Me Recordings', 2012 is shaping up to be a big year for Somerville & Wilson.
The boys have also just finished a Remix for renowned Italian Label 'HELL YEAH Recordings' alongside Crimea X and Marco Dassi, which will be released late 2012. And to boot, they are the first Australians to have a release on the Label.
You can safely say that the Somerville & Wilson love has gone global.
