Unicorn Kid Biography

Oliver Sabin, also known as Unicorn Kid is an electro/chip music composer and musician from Edinburgh[http://www.hecklerspray.com/myspace-trawl-%E2%80%93-unicorn-kid/200815502.php].

Sabin originally used FL Studio to create his distinctive multi-layered sound, but now uses Logic Pro. He has also incorporated a MicroKORG and LSDJ into the material. Following his 2008 show at The Arches "Skinslife" party, Sabin has had a number of BBC Radio 1 and XfM appearances such as his live session on the Vic Galloway BBC Radio 1 show [http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/vicgalloway/tracklistingarchive.shtml?20080703].
'Lion Hat' (named after his trademark headgear) was released in early 2009 on Euphonios - a Scottish-based independent label - and picked up favourable reviews and mainstream radio plays.[http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/lifestyle-catchall/2009/01/16/sound-check-86908-21044856/]
Unicorn Kid's first UK headline Tour took place in 2009 culminating with an appearance at T In The Park on the BBC Introducing stage [http://www.bbc.co.uk/tinthepark/2009/bbc_introducing/].
In mid 2009, Sabin was asked by the Pet Shop Boys to remix their single release Did you see me coming?. [http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2009/jul/10/unicorn-kid-pet-shop-boys] [http://news.scotsman.com/entertainment/Leith-17yearold-to-remix-Pet.5205856.jp] The Unicorn Kid mix was released on the 12" vinyl version and as part of the digital bundle.

Signed by EMI Music Publishing in 2009, Sabin continues to release his material through his own Euphonios label.

Following support slots for Calvin Harris, Sabin undertook a 20 date US tour supporting Owl City, played two official shows at In the City and the Swn Festival and also at the 2009 Babycakes Clothing UK parties held in London, Birmingham and Manchester.
