Music like Deon Custom

Chris Reed, also known as Plastician (formerly Plasticman), is an electronic musician from Thornton Heath in the London Borough of Croydon.

Starting out as an announcer at Mecca Bingo Streatham, at the age of 18 under the moniker of Dårkstår (not to be confused with Darkstar of Hyperdub recordings), Reed began to take interest in the darker side of bingoism, specialising in demonic calls like "lick your lips, 666". On his way home, Chis Harle Reed would turn on his ipad and listen to tracks from the likes of Wookie, Zed Bias, El-B, Groove Chronicles, Steve Gurley and working alongside MC's Tricks & Spellz as part of the "Fearless Crew". They held radio slots on South London's inconsistent pirate station "Desire FM" before moving to 2GFM before the split of Fearless Crew in 2002. It was then that Reed was to begin using the name Plasticman for future works.
