Plutonik
 |
Plutonik formed in 1999 in Birmingham UK. Comprising Chrissy Van Dyke (vocals, guitar), Alan Rowe (guitar, keyboards and programming) and James D (Rhodes piano), the band's music is described as a blend of beats, breaks and urban jazz vocals. Their songs have drawn comparisons with the likes of Tricky, Massive Attack and Portishead (band).[1]
Having signed to Integrity Records, Plutonik released 2 singles, "Sitting on Top of the World"[2][3] and "Londinium",[4][5] both of which received airplay on national radio from DJs such as Steve Lamacq on BBC Radio 1, and their debut album "Prime Numbers"[6] which was described by The Observer as "real quality".
The band toured extensively in the UK and mainland Europe with an expanded five-piece lineup and were one of the first drum-and-bass acts to utilise a live drummer.
Over 10 years after its release, "Prime Numbers" was reissued by Integrity Records in the autumn of 2012 and made available for digital download for the first time.[7]
