A lover of analog techniques and recording live Mike Pelanconi learnt his craft the traditional tape op way as a teenager, this was not to last too long and was soon working with the likes of Rebel MC and the early jungle scene alongside the groovers at Acid Jazz before leaving for Los Angeles and hip-hop label Delicious Vinyl thanks to the Brand New Heavies.

<\/p>\n
\u201cThe one thing in common they all had was the love of a good drum sound and a passion for drum breaks, but you had to be fast\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On returning to the UK it was Mike\u2019s fat drum sound and analog style that got him working with Blur\u2019s Graham Coxon for two albums until assuming the mantle of Prince Fatty in 2007, after creating the name for a Stussy project. There would be a run of albums after signing with Mr. Bongo, featuring himself and other artists such as Mungos HiFi, The Skints, Mad Professor, Manu Chao, Mungo\u2019s Hi-Fi, classic reggae singer Little Roy, who had a surprise hit with an album of Nirvana covers and international break thru thanks to Breaking Bad using Horseman\u2019s Shimmy Shimmy Ya.<\/p>\n

Fatty\u2019s fond of saying that music has no borders but he has an adventurous spirit himself. Since leaving Brighton he\u2019s spent lengthy periods in Los Angeles writing, building a new mix studio in Thailand and recording in Brazil all at the same time. Recent collaborations include mixing the latest Skints album and producing The Role Of Monkey Man album for Delicious Vinyl featuring his latest discovery Brazil\u2019s premier MC Monkey Jhayam.<\/p>\n
