Ian Thomas aka Shap Shankly grew up in Nottingham and knocked about playing guitar
in a band at university in Durham.
At the same time he was producing music, DJing and honing his skills.
After some soul destroying jobs that meant unsociable hours he made a
decision ... Thankfully that decision was to concentrate on what really matters, his music.
The creations of Shankly are as eclectic as his own taste, drawing influences from the most unlikely of
places. Prefuse 73, Plump DJs, Squarepusher, Aphex Twin, Metro Area,
Groove Armada, Plej and Si Begg.
The first signing from the outside world to Virus B-23. Watch out for
a stream of music from this fella.
