Ambassadeurs’ leftfield electronic music is fast making a name for the young Brighton-based producer. His recent ‘Alone In The Night’ and ‘Trouble’ EPs brought him further acclaim from XLR8R, Noisey, Mixmag, This Is Fake DIY and beyond.

He’s amassed over 1 million Soundcloud plays and hit XLR8R’s most downloaded annual chart (2012) with the releases ‘Ignite’ (400,000+ YouTube views), ‘No Matter What’ (275,000+ views on Majestic Casual), Come A Little Closer (released on Jalapeno) and M.O.P.E (released on his Lost Tribe imprint), and remixes for labels such as Tru Thoughts, Ninja Tune, Moshi Moshi, Fat Cat, Wah Wah 45s and others.

Ambassadeurs (aka Mark Dobson) started out learning his craft on an 8-bit Amiga computer, wrestling with the notoriously tricky Octamed while the rest of us were playing Lemmings. After the requisite teenage years in psychedelic rock bands, he upgraded to Logic and began working with electronic instruments, getting inside the machinery to make them sound the way he wanted.

Taking cues from dub, hip-hop, bass and jazz, but sounding like none of these genres, Ambassadeurs’ sound is hard to pigeonhole. His distinctive style can be attributed to a Tobin-like love for turning found sounds into samples and processing them beyond recognition – creating music as unique as his talent.

An impressive live show has rapidly brought him a growing following. And it’s not only new fans; he’s caught the ear of artists including Danny Brown, Gold Panda, Daedelus, Kelpe and Star Slinger, who’ve chosen him for support shows.
