Are you looking for Pilchard, pioneer of bolloxcore, shitnoise, and hard guff? Good. You found him. He’s me.
I’ve been writing and releasing music as Pilchard since about 1997 when I first encountered Bob the Builder who has a cat of the same name.
Prior to that, I was always buggering about with something noisy; taking stuff apart, fixing it, messing with it, hitting it and so on. I still do that now but in a slightly more organised fashion.
You probably didn’t come here for my life story, so here’s some music:
Fe

My latest single, Fe, is a hard and fast, sub-shaking drum and bass tune that begins a series of element-related tunes.
- Get Pilchard – Fe on Apple Music
- Get Pilchard – Fe on Deezer
- Get Pilchard – Fe on iHeartRadio
- Get Pilchard – Fe on Spotify

King of Boscombe

King of Boscombe was kind of an accident. I was thinking about that difficult second album (which is almost complete, by the way) but got sidetracked and made this instead.
This EP is basically a sandwich made of breakbeat bread with a filling of downtempo hip-hop beats.
