Kye Gibbon AKA Foamo is a fresh-faced 21 year old producer and DJ from High Wycombe, going by the name of Foamo. His wobbly basslines and fidgety beats have rightly received alot of attention from the likes of MSTRKRFT, Drop The Lime, Crookers and Kissy Sell Out beginning with his debut on Cubism in the Summer of 2008. Since the age of 13 Foamo has immersed himself in the garage, dubstep, jungle/d’n’b, hip hop and grime scenes. With all these influences combined, Foamo has crafted his own category of electro that often revolves around a filthy bassline and kinetic beats.Foamo blasts out huge pulses of wonky, loud bass, making a noise not too dissimilar to the bass-heavy sound of Jack Beats, but with some added retro cool. Foamo’s combines strange vocals and bouncing, squelching basslines for an animated and energetic amalgam of dancefloor fun. June 2008 saw Foamo serve up his debut release on Cubism with 'Movin it over here'. The original track became an instant classic with wide ranging support and was licensed to complilations across the world. Foamo has arrived.
