Bookworm is the musical project of Asheville, NC based multi-genre producer Isaac LeFever. Many hours spent up late at night in the studio perfecting the texture and nuance heard in his compositions result in a very diverse, yet cohesive sound that is always evolving and refining itself. Live, Bookworm continues to bring an ever increasing energy and varied palette of electronic music blended together into an absolutely unique experience. At a time when it’s simply easier to play mind numbing club bangers and tow the line, Bookworm has taken the road less traveled – quickly gaining fans, themselves also in search of something different.
Honing a catalog that continues to grow in range, Bookworm has a rather interesting set of accomplishments already under his belt.
In April of 2010, he claimed a weekly site-wide number 1 spot for his dubstep remix of Mochipet’s “Pythagorean Hyphy Proof” on the Additech digital download charts. Switching genres at the tail end of 2010, his track “Ursine Combat Squad” from the “Mindelixir Presents Repeat Business” compilation was featured in a weekly top 10 must hear DnB chart on Beatport. Bookworm has also displayed proficiency in more classically styled, jazzy hip hop offerings on Lab Coat’s “Hi” EP and recently Bookworm has been experimenting with house and 2 step. This kind of versatility has lead to released on his music being featured on radio stations from San Francisco all the way to Serbia. His music has been released on Abstract Logic Recordings, Skew Records, Blunted Funk Recordings, Daly City Records and Lab Coat.
In a short few years on the touring circuit, Bookworm has already shared billings with such acts as Joker, Big Gigantic, Lazer Sword, Conspirator, Ghostland Observatory, Eliot Lipp, Mindelixir, Bonobo, Alex B, Eoto and Emanciptor. Now, together with fellow Asheville based producers Two Fresh and Jables, Bookworm has formed the Lab Coat beat collective, a loosely defined label of sorts which has been creating a considerable amount of buzz in the electronic music scene in 2011. With a serious amount of momentum built up this year, Bookworm’s future seems expansive and bright.
