After a year of jam sessions in railway arch in South London Ambient / Electronic /Jazz
collective DIME emerged. Their unique blend of dystopian dance music and improvised melodies creating soundscapes unique to each performance.
Comprised of Max O’Donnell (The Streets, Sister Sledge) on guitar, Peter Adam Hill (Alfa Mist, Ashley Henry) on drums, Sam Warner (Hak Baker, Tom Misch) on trumpet and Basile Petite (Incognito, Nubian Twist) on Bass, DIME features some of the UK’s most in demand session musicians.
Favouring melodic themes rather than traditional song structures DIME utilise collective improvisation to move seamlessly between genre, tempo and textures allowing each
individual to put across their own individual tastes and voice on their instrument.
“Dime have a big sound Akin to Matthew Halsall, all about the building to cosmic euphoria and epiphany. Like Much Modern Music of all genres, longer on texture than structure, it's not about the journeys such but the immersive bliss when it all clicks”

Dime recently played Love supreme festival and have released their debut Ep “Belmont
Villa”. All recorded live and 100% improvised.
