Releasing tracks in the first place as Klute and Override, his talent for musical composition the to the highest degree unrelentingly explorative of tracks inside the speech of dancefloor drum'n'bass (as opposed to artful noodlers such as Plug, Mung, and Squarepusher) has played a function in push hobo camp beyond the more than loopy confines of its "ambient" and "gaudy jungle" offshoots. While jolly typical as an ambient junglist himself, Withers' tracks flit around with such measure and contradiction as to space his work from the more accomplishable concede of artists such as Alex Reece and LTJ Bukem. A guitar player in the semi-legendary British thug band the Stupids earlier determination the side by side grade of extreme in the exploding hardcore (as in, hard-core techno) subway, Withers released a few uneven white-labels of straight-ahead dancefloor fare in the early '90s in front subsiding into experimental breakbeat by 1993. Withers' way of life through the inner ear of underground labels -- from Certificate 18, Deep Red, and Octopus to Crammed subsidiaries Selector and Language -- brings his two most distinctive characteristics into focus; complicated, illogical rhythms and tense, often melancholy melodic themes. While iniquity constitutes an important component of many of his tracks (in particular his Certificate 18 and Octopus singles), it's oftentimes opposite with a light, more dynamical thrust that gives his tunes an most epic feel. Withers' Selector releases as Phume (together with Dave Campbell, ex-Hi-Ryze) are ignitor still, with elements of techno and house combination with jungle's brisker BPMs. In gain to his regular schedule of twelves, Withers' product summarise includes remix work for Sumosonic and Octopus labelmates Stranger (aka Inky Blacknuss), as well as releases as Tongue, Tom Tom, and Dr. No. Daily Bodies, released in 1998, was his first full-length.
