From Northampton’s vibrant streets to Rekordshop’s podcast platform, Anthony Russell, known in the music world as Silky, is fast becoming a name synonymous with soulful authenticity and creative drive.

A Musical Heritage Begins a Journey

Growing up enveloped in music, Anthony’s passion was nurtured through every beat around him. His father toured as a drummer for iconic bands like Imagination and Delegation, while his mother filled their home with classic soul and funk from the ’70s and ’80s. Anthony’s older brothers steered him toward electronic sounds—House, Techno, and Dubstep—laying the foundation for his genre-blending signature style.

That deep-rooted love for records and eclectic sounds naturally found its outlet in SilkyMusik’s creative landscape, both as a producer and DJ.

Bringing Soul Back Through Production and Mixes

With over three years of production under his belt and more than a year of experience behind the decks, SilkyMusik adds a soulful dimension to the clubs. His original material blends nostalgic grooves with fresh electronic energy, while his sets deliver warmth, depth, and dynamic flair to contemporary dance floors.

Silky’s mission is simple yet powerful: “I was tired of hearing the same music in the clubs—I wanted to add soul back into the world.”
