Label - Mettle Music

Label Bio - Mettle Music
The two men at the helm of the Mettle Music production family are Nic Conef and Mark Wadsworth. Based within the fertile deep house breeding ground of Manchester, England their evocative sound has evolved consistently and confidently into maturity since their first release as part of Mettle Music Collective in June ‘99 on Toko Records.
Nic Conef is a veteran house head & DJ fully committed to the cause of proper house music since the earliest days of the Manchester club scene. His passion was further developed in the mid nineties thanks to the fresh approach of seminal British House labels, such as Paper, Toko and Nuphonic. Fully inspired off he went to develop his own sound with talented musician and percussionist, Mark Wadsworth.
Mark had been working with various bands in the live music scene in Manchester. Frustration with endless gigging drew him to the world of dance music and the keys to the recording studio. Experimenting with a fusion of jazz, electronica and beats he first collaborated with Sam Kynaston for his first album release Yennah’s ‘Red Noise’ on Freerange Records in ‘98.
Complimenting each others varied backgrounds and skills, they tapped into their network of talented musicians and released their first record as "Mettle Music Collective" on Toko Records. Realising that they really produced the goods working together as a team, we now have the more finely toned "Mettle Music" coming of age with the acclaimed debut album project ‘Honeycomb Lounge’.
2004 saw them embark on a European tour taking in the UK, Spain, Italy, Cheq rep, Greece & Scandanavia. The live act combines decks, sampler, keyboards, live percussion, sax, guitar, flute & vocals into one loaded set of seriously sexy, groovin house...
