Gavin Weale's sporadic musical career began as a contributor at the first online iteration of the now legendary Hyperdub label in 2000, and playing at the earliest Hyperdub parties in London. Along with his DJ partner and cult electronic producer Actress (aka Darren Cunningham) he co-founded the Werk parties in 2001, and the electronic music label WerkDiscs (now part of the wider Ninja Tunes stable), where he released productions under the name Mr Lizard, including one of the anonymous Grim Dubs series. He held DJ residencies at iconic London clubs including Plastic People, Corsica Studios and The End. As a writer he has contributed to the Guardian, Dazed & Confused and a variety of now long-forgotten UK dance music magazines. His favourite gig was performing a live DJ soundtrack to footage of the Japanese moon voyage at London's Science Museum. He is the co-founder and sound designer of Offal (offaloffaloffal.com). He lives in Cape Town.
