Real name: Liam Fairclough

Liam Fairclough is a Manchester-based producer who records and performs as Aniso Tropics. Most recently Liam has been signed up by legendary Manchester-located deep house and disco label Paper Recordings for a 4 track EP, proudly cataloguing him alongside well established outfits such as Crazy P, Salt City Orchestra and Miguel Migs.

Liam has been making experimental electronic music from a young age, harking back to toying with primitive DAW's and virtual instruments on an IBM in his parents front room in the late 90's. There may be fragments of Liam's teenage era sounds lurking on old semi-broken websites under pseudonyms such as SulphuR and Brand New Retro.

Liam entered his adulthood with a passion for sharing and promoting fellow bedroom artists from across the globe via his own record label Retronym, co-created with his friend Lee Ackerley and housing artists such as Boreal Network and Cilocub.

With the Retronym website gradually phasing out with the rise of Bandcamp and SoundCloud, Liam re-focused himself on his own production as Aniso Tropics around 2015, as well as DJing across various venues across the UK. Liam released his debut record, 'Laic Indelica' in 2020, a downtempo affair themed on late night Youtube binges for sample oddities, spaced-out synthesis and off-kilter atmospherics.

His latest output is more reminiscent of dance music past and present, starting from the 70's Kosmiche through to the ages of electronica, deep, techno, Balearic and elsewhere.
