Biography[]

Hunt met Reuben Wu in Liverpool in 1995 and formed Ladytron with him in 1999, along with Mira Aroyo and Helen Marnie.[citation needed]

In 2003, Hunt set up the Liverpool club, Evol and subsequently collaborated in 2005 on the celebrated Korova bar in the city.[1] In addition to the band, he also DJ's around the world both solo and with other band members.[2] His vocals are featured in the Ladytron' songs "International Dateline" and "Versus".[citation needed]

Hunt has produced other artists such as Christina Aguilera, Marina Gasolina and Niue, and remixed Dave Gahan, Soulwax, Placebo, Simian, Paul Weller and Blondie.[citation needed]

Hunt has worked on several movie scores, including that of Would You Rather starring Sasha Grey, in collaboration with Icelandic friend Barði Jóhannsson. Hunt joined Pink Industry as guitarist for their first show in 25 years in January 2012 at Cine Joia, São Paulo, Brazil.[citation needed]

Hunt produced Ladytron bandmate Helen Marnie's debut solo album Crystal World, that was released in 2013. He is currently producing the forthcoming sixth Ladytron album, and working on other unrelated projects.[citation needed]

In 2016, Hunt co-produced the Blind Spot (EP) for the band Lush.[3]

On the early part of Witching Hour tour, Ladytron named their four identical Korg MS2000B to be easier installed on stage. Hunts was called Ulysses.[4]
