Krinks is the moniker of South-London-Based DJ/producer and composer Will Lowes – a one-of-a-kind artist.
In the space that exists out in the cosmos, somewhere between the Chemical Brothers and Dom Jolly, you’ll find Krinks. A washed up raver. A modular synth wizard. A clown. He makes dance music right before your eyes which, oftentimes, not even he has heard yet. Dialling up the heat on his machines, whipping the room into a frenzy. This isn’t just the most trustworthy guy at the party: he is the party.
Fresh from delivering his debut score for indie breakthrough film All My Friends Hate Me, a pitch black comedy about social paranoia, he’s taken his sense of wit to shine a light on the matter closest to his heart: dance music or what he describes as ‘techno performance art’. He makes dance music the old fashioned way, mixing desk, sampler with modular synthesiser going crazy in the corner. A lot can go wrong, which is where the fun is to be found.
He just returned with the release of ‘Al Gore Rhythm Mixtape’.

Discussing the release, Krinks explains:
“The Al Gore Rhythm mixtape contains 9 tracks, spanning the era of the birth of Krinks. It moves from mediative spoken word (All I Know About Meditation) via sleazy dance floor jam (FamJam) through to filmic closing number (It Stings Alone). Not to mention the singles that display a more melodic side to Krinks (It’s Burnin’ Off, Is The Sun Out Yet?). Inspired by surviving serious illness (his wife), welcoming to the world a new life (his daughter) and many, many years on the great dance floors of the world.”
