Foamo
Kye Gibbon is a fresh-faced 21 year old producer and DJ from High Wycombe, going by the name of Foamo. Here's another up-and-comer banging out tasty wobbly basslines and fidgety beats and has rightly received alot of attention from the likes of MSTRKRFT, Drop The Lime, Crookers and Kissy Sell Out.
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.
