Aquasky is an English electronic group composed of Dave Wallace, Kieron Bailey, and Brent Newitt.[2] In early 1995 they got together toproduce their own music.[3] Shortly afterwards they sent a demo tape toMoving Shadow records and the seeds of a musical alliance were sown. The first single 'Dezires / Images' (Shadow 64) was released three months later and remixed byKrust (Shadow 64R).
Originally adrum and bass outfit, the trio have also become involved in thebreaks scene using the moniker Aquasky vs. Masterblaster to denote their breaks projects. They retained Aquasky fordrum and bass projects. The addition of Masterblaster however led to great confusion amongst fans. So Masterblaster was dropped and everything is once again being released under the name Aquasky. The trio are also responsible for creating and running the Passenger label established in 1997 (as well as its sister label 777 established in 2004) which continues to release their style of heavydrum and bass influenced breaks. Their latest effort is the 'Teamplayers' EP which features collaborations with many influential electronic artists includingThe Breakfastaz, Tayo,The Ragga Twins andMeat Katie.
The trio now operate under the name "Black Noise" releasingelectro house songs for "Southern Fried Records"
