Toob Biography
Rich Thair and Jakeone have been producing music together since 2001, forming Toob when Jake was providing an electronic angle to the formidable live sound of Rich’s band Red Snapper.

Their first releases were 12”s on Groovetech and Jake’s marvelously off-kilter club label Flameboy. These were picked up by a wide range of top DJs, including Rolando, Andrew Weatherall and Laurent Garnier. These were followed by their first album “How to Spell Toob” on Lo Recordings in 2005. Continuing to defy the ever-narrowing genres in dance music, the club singles “The Miscreant” and “4 Walls” created quite a stir with DJs across the board in the UK and Europe.

Since then they’ve been taking their sound live in clubs and festivals round the UK and Europe. Their simple set up of Rich on live drums and Jake on synths, laptop and, more recently, vocals has been shaped into a crack unit of blistering electro breakfunk. Since their first, brilliantly unrehearsed, gig at The Croft in Bristol their sets have been constantly shifting and evolving – the audiences never seeing the same show twice but always leaving satisfied, which has gained them many a fan along the way.
