Born from the UK underground in 2000, Player let the records do the talking: tough, rolling techno packed with funk, chopped hip-hop vocals and Chicago attitude. Their numbered releases connected with DJs and clubbers alike - Billy Nasty opened his March 2001 BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix with Player 003 B1, while Chris Cowie featured Player cuts in his 2002 Essential Mix. Remixes from Ben Sims and Joey Beltram strengthened an already heavyweight catalogue.
Originally a collective involving Jon Nuccle, Mark Turner and Ignition Technician’s Pete Simpson and Richard Wilkinson, the Infamous Player name lives on through Jon Nuccle.
