Tony Goods
(Sounds of Sumo | Seattle)
Born a bastard lovechild in the Bronx, DASH EXP (Aka Tony Goods) learned from his mother recently that his father (Tony Goodsell) had also been an active DJ in New York City, giving him the goods for a life of musical escapades (and inspiring his recent “The Goods” tour). Dash now resides in Seattle (USA) and, since 2005, has established his reputation as a trendsetter in bass culture in the northwest with his funky, NYC-inspired tunes. Introduced to dubstep in 2006 by another local Seattle DJ, Struggle, Dash quickly became a figure in the Seattle dubstep circuit, holding down his own uniquely melodic and experimental take on the genre.
Having self-released three successful dubstep mixes (Dub Assassin Series), a 19-track all original mix, and putting out a steady flow of singles, EP’s and remixes for notable future-thinking indie labels like Shift. Recordings, Hot N Heavy, Brap Dem, Betamorph and Phantom Hertz, Dash has showed his versatility in genres with tunes ranging from dubstep, jungle, drum and bass, house, garage and UK funky. The eclecticism of his rhythms lends to a frenzy on the dancefloor, and has bought him continued support and play from leading DJ’s, producers and labels worldwide, as well as radio play on BBC Radio 1. Poised to make big moves in 2011, he recently added the “Soundview” EP on Hot N Heavy Recordings and the “King of Rock” EP on Brap Dem Recordings to his catalogue of releases. Look out for the “Friends” EP, his debut under the Tony Goods alias, coming out this summer on UK’s Sounds of Sumo.
