Info about Dust Junkys
English rap/rock group, formed in Manchester and originally active between 1995 and 2000, before reforming in 2015.
Following the stalling of his solo career, Nicky Lockett (AKA MC Tunes) formed the Dust Junkys with Sam Brox on guitar, Stephen "OJ" Oliver Jones on bass guitar, Mykey Wilson on drums and Ganiyu Pierre Gasper on turntables. The band concentrated on gigging in the Manchester area and then national tours, building audiences for their mix of British hip hop and rock music.
The b-side 'Rinse (Beatbox Wash)' was sampled by Fatboy Slim on his song 'Gangster Trippin', leading Dust Junkys & MC Tunes to hold a shared co-writer credit with Norman Cook.
Upon their reformation in 2015 Lockett founded The Dust Junky Collective, a project helmed by MC Tunes, Sam Bronx & Vince Vega. The collective would go on to record new tunes under the mantle, featuring guest musicians such as Melanie Mills & Joe Roberts.
