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:
King of Boscombe

King of Boscombe is my most recent release to date. It 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.
Tracklisting:
- King of Boscombe
- Two Headed Bullet
- Tiny Raptor
- Made of Bees
- King of Boscombe (Memoraphile Remix)

Is that not enough?
You really want more? Okay, the rest of my music can be found on my Pilchard music website and/or on Righteous Robot Records.
