only just found this out


Justin Welch - Drummer for the 90s britpop band Elastica. Justin left, became interested in djing and teamed up with James Atkins to start ASBO KID

James Atkins - Lead singer of 90s EMF James also is also interested in djing and remixing music, paired with Justin these pair really know how to let rip on the decks

Asbo Kid have signed to Corsair Records (current home to one of me other favourite bands the mighty Lo Fidelity Allstars) and there's a link on their homepage to get a free tune by them

The new EP is quite good! Hoping for a second album sooner than later...

The genesis of this came through a band called Beauty School (one or two of the tracks resurfaced as ASBO tracks)... Beauty School was James and Rachel Stewart (who used to sing with Fluke in the post-electronica-Risotto days). Justin joined them and they recorded an album that never formally got released (it's floating around online if you look). It's quite good for dance-pop-techno in a similar vein to ASBO Kid if you like them.
