Part-Time Heroes are two young musicians currently residing in a very fashionable part of North London. Although their names are not known to the masses, their music soon will be, as this part-time shop assistant and part-time sandwich deliveryman, plan to convert their part-time music careers into full-time employment. Their PTH Projects alias has allowed them to release more dance floor orientated cuts and remixes on Wah Wah 45s, and lead to them releasing their debut album ‘Meanwhile…’ with us in 2008.

Both heroes have a deep history in a variety of genres, sharing influences from Miles Davis to Bob Marley to The Clash, and both now share the same landlord. For various reasons the duo found themselves sharing a flat together at the turn of 2005 and after many late night conversations, lengthy musical debates and story-telling sessions, the duo that had now become good friends decided it was only right to combine their two studios. The short move from each other’s respected bedrooms to the ‘the lounge’ took place and a new production partnership was born. It was quick, natural and felt right and the next ten months have taken them to the brink of breaking through.

April 2005 saw the duo invite a selection of close friends/local accomplished musicians to their front room to bring that live touch to their recordings. Live drums, flute, keys, double bass and horn section were thrown into the mix and over the coming months vocalists including new-comers Jono McCleery, Lucy Kitchen and Laura Vane would drop by to indulge in late night song writing sessions and recording.

Having held their music down, working away juggling day jobs, they’ve managed to contribute music to an recent MTV advert plus remixing the likes of MJ Cole, Yungun, Mosaic, Citizen Cope and Instrumental (Big Chill Recordings). Radio 1’s worldwide tastemaker Gilles Peterson who’s supported them on his show, recently described them as a ‘Jazzier Zero 7′ and went on to say ‘I highly rate them, watch out for them’. Further more the dynamic duo are currently recording tracks with N’Dambi (Erykah Badu and Jill Scott collaborator) and Monday Michiru all under their Part-Time Heroes name.

The debut Part Time Heroes album, Meanwhile…, was released on Wah Wah 45s in September 2008 to much critical acclaim. A digital only release of remixes (and limited 12) from Unforscene, Marbet Rocal, Featurecast, Landslide, Scrimshire, Boom Clap Bachelors, and the PTH boys themselves is out now!!
