EGEBAMYASI BIOGRAGHY
EARLY EGGSPERIENCES
Formed in Stirling, Scotland in early 1984 as a free form eggsperimental one piece playing McAcid House before anyone knew what it was called, fusing many eggclectic influences, including Can, Captain Beefheart, Fad Gadget, and Electro, into a uniquegg style - in retrospect a style way ahead of it's time
From 1985-9 as dance music was turned on it's head by the emerging rave scene, EGEBAMYASI also underwent a musical epiphany after hearing the Sleezy D (Adonis / Marshall Jefferson / Derrick Harris ) track "I've Lost Control".
RAVE TO THE EGG
Juggling new styles, ideas and band members, and finally finding eggquilibrium as founder MR EGG went back to his roots utilising his beloved 303's losing the eggstreme props and continuing as solo performer.
Until 1999 EGEBAMYASI continued to thrive from their notoriety and a wealth of innovative record releases to pursue a punishing tour schedule across the clubs and festivals of UK and Europe, large and small.
Venues ranged from the Inverness Railway Club to main tour support for EAT STATIC on their European Tour, along with most of the infamous MEGADOGS. EGEBAMYASI and the eggbullient, not to mention eggcentric Mr Egg received substantial press coverage and acclaim throughout this period and was described on more than one occasion as "Moby On Steroids"

Egebamyasi – Evolution and Reinvention
Emerging from a deep-rooted fascination with underground dance culture, Egebamyasi initially found his footing in the raw, hypnotic textures of acid house. Drawn to the genre’s squelching basslines and rebellious spirit, echoing the energy of late-80s pioneers, he built a sound that balanced nostalgia with forward-thinking production.
However, as acid house steadily became absorbed into mainstream club culture, its once-subversive edge began to dull. For Egebamyasi, this shift marked a turning point rather than a plateau.
Restless and unwilling to remain confined by genre expectations, he began exploring new sonic territory. This led him toward what he describes as “wobblestep” a darker, more abrasive fusion rooted in the grittier edges of UK garage and dubstep. In these heavier, bass-driven textures, he rediscovered the same tension, unpredictability, and underground ethos that first drew him to acid.
Rather than abandoning his roots, Egebamyasi’s newer work reframes them channelling acid’s spirit into a more contemporary, shadowy framework. The result is a sound that feels both referential and exploratory: distorted low-end pressure, fractured rhythms, and a persistent sense of unease.
Still evolving, he continues to resist stagnation, treating genre not as a boundary but as a toolkit, constantly reshaped in pursuit of something raw, immediate, and alivegg.
