Joseph “Wax Wings” Icaro is a producer and DJ like few other electronic music artists. Heavily inspired by alternative guitar bands, you’re as likely to hear him cite the likes of Nine Inch Nails or Deftone as influences as any electronic producer. Much of his music is linked to his painting and photography work, something that first started when he picked up DJing while studying art in London.
Early into his DJ career he signed to the label The Weird and The Wonderful, releasing two EPs and remixing the likes of Maya Jane Coles. Coles has been of particular importance in Icaro’s career – aside from their ongoing studio collaborations, Icaro frequently shares the bill with the deep house stalwart. Next weekend they both play in Room One, so he sent over a mix of chugging house and acid in anticipation.
