Shenoda

Shenoda is a British electronic music producer and DJ based in London, working across deep house, house, techno, tech house and related club styles. He is associated with the Hypercolour label, where he appears early on as a remixer and later releases the Shots and On & On EPs in 2011 and 2012. He also records for Hypercolour’s offshoot Losing Suki, and has releases on boutique labels including Fear of Flying and Connaisseur.

His music develops from garage, a style that shapes his emphasis on groove, bass and rhythm. He is also classically trained, which informs his approach to house and techno and gives his records a more detailed musical character. His sound is described as contemporary, with a rough, warm texture and a strong focus on dancefloor movement.

Releases and recognition

Among his notable records is the A Homage EP on Losing Suki, which features garage-influenced shuffles and tightly coiled drums. The release receives support from Matthew Dear, who calls it “a new breed classic”, and it also gets radio play from Skream and Benga, alongside backing from Huxley, Jimmy Edgar and Axel Bowman. Earlier, the Shots EP gains support from Martyn and Mosca, while On & On is selected for Mattias Tanzmann’s Fabric mix.

DJ work

Shenoda also maintains a reputation as a DJ, with performances at Fabric London, Manchester’s Warehouse Project and Boiler Room London. His sets move between deep house, techno and garage rather than staying within one genre.
