Hailing from Edinburgh, he's been lauded for his unique and diverse productions that draw upon influences ranging from deep house to jazz to afro beat.
He released his debut full-length album, When Will We Land? on 20th October 2023 via Ninja Tune. The album charted at #12 in the UK Albums Charts, winning BBC Radio 1's award for "Best Dance Album", and receiving acclaim from critics. Clash Magazine rated the album 9 out of 10, describing it as "varied, zeitgeisty and just plain fun", highlighting its "astonishing" attention to detail.
PopMatters ranked it as the best electronic album of 2023, calling it a "tour-de-force of 11 tracks that are so perfectly edited and composed that not a single note is wasted". The album was cited as one of the best albums of 2023 by Billboard (magazine), Clash Magazine, Mixmag, DJ Mag and PopMatters.
In December 2023, he won the DJ Mag 'Breakthrough Producer' award.
