Feed Me biography

Feed Me (born 22 August 1984) - aka Jonathan Gooch - is a drum and bass, dubstep and electro house DJ and producer from Hertfordshire, UK.

Jon Gooch started playing around with music when his friend introduced him to drum and bass in 2005 and found he was rather fond of it. From there Jon started experimenting with music software to create his own mixes and tracks, and along with friend Codex were known to skip-off school to continue to work on the music, eventually producing under the moniker ‘Final Reckoning’. Early influences in Jon’s music can be seen in artists such as Hive and Bad Company, and this stage can be seen as a huge progress in Jon’s musical development.

Then came Spor, a name derived from a combination of digital folders of samples he had acquired, along with a piece of artwork created by a friend, is a hard-edged, heavy hitting drum and bass outlet. Spor released a whole handful of tracks, remixes and collections, the result of which has been international acclaim and along with friend Chris Renegade went on to launch ‘Lifted Music,’ a drum and bass record label with a propensity for the avant-garde.

Whilst still continuing under the name ‘Spor' Jon Gooch has in very little time made a big impact under his ‘Feed Me’ pseudonym. Having been signed to Deadmau5’s ‘Mau5trap’ label in 2008 Feed Me has released a whole-host of tracks and albums, from 2008’s split single “The Spell”/“Raw Chicken”, to his first full-length LP “Feed Me’s Big Adventure” in 2010, to his follow up LP “Calamari Tuesday”. On top of this Jon’s relevant choice of remixes including Chase & Status’ “Let You Go”, Gorillaz’s “On Melancholy Hill” and Robyn’s “Call Your Girlfriend” has ensured a high public profile for Feed Me and a consistent tour schedule.

Live reviews

While I love dancing at concerts, I normally try to avoid actually jumping in the air, because I feel bad if I land on the person next to me. This show was so amazing, I didn't have a choice. And it looked like the people around me didn't care; I don't think I've ever seen an electronic show that had the crowd going crazy like this. This was almost like a heavy metal mosh pit, minus the people hurting each other.
Feed Me still has that heavy dubstep touch, which I personally miss hearing in electronic music. And he brought it out for everyone to see, playing many of his older, more "traditionally dubstep-y" songs like One Click Headshot, for example. His new songs were of course amazing too. Feed Me is a master of dynamics - highs and lows, drops and trances - he keeps you on a roller coaster of emotions. Feed Me's music is much less formulaic than a lot of popular EDM artists today, and it really does make him stand out.
While the music was electrifying (no pun intended), and the sound was great (shout out to the Paramount Theater!), I think the crowning achievement of Feed Me's set was his lights. He stands behind a creepy grin, the smile of his trademark Feed Me monster. The teeth had all kinds lights and animations crawling across them, and would set the mood for each song. The additional lights above and around the teeth were also very well done. Overall, Feed Me's lights were well thought out and contributed a lot to the vibe and energy. Theatrical is the best way I can think to describe them - they almost could have been a show on their own.
I've seen many rock shows and many electronic shows, and there is no doubt in my mind that Feed Me was one of the best. To anyone considering going: do it. It's more than worth the ticket price.
