“Tasty package for late night warehouse wonderers
Opening with tight drums and rock guitar riffs “Off The Wall” is reminiscent of
Early Evil Nine days. Backdraft quickly stamp their weighty mark however,
with angry spitting lyrics and a hard-hitting bass”
- Mixmag Aug 2008
“Eddy Temple Morris's favourite Northern scary bass botherers, Backdraft
Return to Botchit with filthy guitar stabs and rotten as you like bass hooks, complete with snearing female punked up vocal samples and enough swaggering attitude to worry Johnny Rotten’”
- Atmosphere magazine 2008

Bio
Mancunian DJ/ producers Backdraft, famed for their energizing production style, dirty beats and roaring bass lines are set to release their eagerly awaited debut album on 3rd March 2009 on Passenger records.
The album We know where you live crosses the boundaries of breaks with an unprecedented creative flair. Featuring exciting collaborations from some of the hottest vocalists of our time, the album offers diversity and eclecticism whilst maintaining Backdrafts hard stompin style.
Backdraft have been churning out massive hits such as the electrifying Labrat, which became the highest selling single on Passenger Records, the funky head-banger Popcorn (Passenger) and Fool (Botchit & Scarper) to name just a few. They have sold over 50000 dancefloor singles gaining worldwide acclaim for their trademark style.
With the creation of their debut album, they have decided to take their sound from the studio and the turntables to the stage, launching an innovative electronic live show called Beat Bazaar, featuring a diverse collective of talented vocalists and highly original performances.
High on energy and creativity Beat Bazaar blends the sounds of funky breakbeat and menacing electro with rootsy rhymes from MR Fox, soulful vibes from Veba, grimy lyrical wit from Solja & Dreadless Dreados, earthly tones from Ebere and sultry hooks from Tracey Elizabeth. Together they present a unique new live elecronic music show, which is guaranteed to blow your mind with maximum audio visual entertainment.
Earlier this year Backdraft contributed to the Gran Turismo5 Prologue, the fifth installment of the billion-dollar selling racing franchise developed exclusively for PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3), which features exclusive cuts from the biggest names in the recording industry. Backdrafts Off the wall track, featuring Tor, provides racing fans with an adrenalin fuelled driving experience.
