Artist History
TRUST NO ONE have been writing and recording together several years, during which time they
have accumulated a respectable amount of recording technology at Andy's home studio,
Viewpoint. Andrew has remixed Portsmouth band Blake (providing the breakbeat filled 'Paragon Radio Mix' and the danced-up 'Paragon Club Mix' of their track 'When It's All Over'); gigged locally as dance act Paragon; recorded vocal trance with Lojik; he remixes material by himself and other artists with Scott Ruston under the pseudonym Euthanasia; and also digitally mastered and edited the first CD of material by local dance producer and fellow Lojik member Stephen Christopher (aka Philanthropic / Goa's Ark). Andy is currently studying a four year Bachelor of Science
honours degree in Entertainment Technology at the University of Portsmouth. |
