Ed Case

Edwin Makromallis, also known by his moniker Ed Case, is a Garage and House producer, remixer, songwriter and DJ from London, UK and owner of the Killer Instinct and Quality Control record labels and ex-member of Middle Row Records.

Work with Gorillaz
He made the remix of the song "Clint Eastwood" named "Clint Eastwood (Ed Case Refix)" featuring rapper Sweetie Irie during recording sessions at a studio of Middle Row Records on the same building as Damon Albarn's Studio 13, as he thought the original was 'quite slow', and he thought that his best contribution could be made in the form of a more energetic version. The remix later debuted live at the Notting Hill Carnival in London during a soundsystem by Middle Row on the 25th of August 2000, even before the Tomorrow Comes Today EP was released.

The remix gained enormous popularity on dance clubs all over England, which led it to be included as a B-side track on the single release of "Clint Eastwood" and later as a hidden and bonus track on Gorillaz' the debut album, Gorillaz. This further led him to achieve a greater level of mainstream pop fame with the remix.

Musical Career
Ed Case began his music career in the illegal rave scene of the late 1980s. This was followed by a stint working in Hardcore and Drum n Bass clubs. Case however made his name in the UK Garage scene of the late 1990s. He hosted a show on pirate radio, Freek FM.

He released a string of underground hits, including Something In Your Eyes featuring Shelley Nelson, which peaked at 38 in the UK Top 40. This track represented a dual turning point, since it was the first time Case had a track chart, and prior, Case had only used vocal samples, and it was the first time he had worked with a live vocalist in his studio.

In 2001 he was signed to Sony to produce his own album Ed's Guest List. The album was a collaboration of different artists from different musical genres.

Ed Case linked up with Dan Genal as in early 2013 to form State Unknown. They have performed DJ sets around the world, playing 'underground bass-driven tracks'.
