Multi Award Winning Platinum Selling producers Jim Sullivan & Eddie Craig aka The Wideboys have been working together since the mid 90’s and in that time have worked with a who’s who of the current music industry. Song Writing, Producing, Djing, Remixing, Compiling and Tastemaking describe what the guys do on a weekly basis.

The boys first big break happened in the mid to late 90’s after building some heat on some small independent labels in the emerging underground House & Garage scene in London, the boys had a chance meeting with Andy Lewis of Locked On records at a club in London, who heard an early version of their song “Sambuca” he immediately signed it , the track became the second release on Warner imprint 679 recordings following on from Mike Skinner’s debut single“Has It Come to This” with The Streets. From there the boys signed with Public Demand Records which was home to the Artful Dodger & Craig David and started really building their craft.
Non stop for nearly 2 decades the boys have only gained momentum and have officially remixed and produced for artists including –
Beyonce, Clean Bandit, Louisa Johnson, Justin Bieber, Pink, Usher, Lady Gaga, Wiley, LMFAO, Snoop Dog, Swedish House Mafia, Rihanna, Example, Ed Sheeran, Wretch 32, NERD (Pharell Williams), Professor Green, Leona Lewis, Alicia Keyes, Mariah Carey, Boy Better Know, Carly Rae Jepson, Black Eyed Peas, Pussycat Dolls, Ludacris, Miley Cyrus, Cascada, Nelly Furtado, Lily Allen, Nicole Scherzinger, Kylie Minogue , Nikki Minaj, Jason Derulo, Eric Prydz, Robin S, Bob Sinclair, Janet Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, Estelle, Kanye West, Souljah Boy, Britney Spears, Will I Am, Maroon 5, Flo Rida, Olly Murs, Emeli Sande, Nile Rodgers, Boy Better Know, Chris Lorenzo, Raye etc
Musically the boys are and have always been very diverse. Crossing from North to South of the electronic musical spectrum. From big room house to delicately programmed deep grooving garage, to storming trap & drum and bass, to catchy energetic pop and downtempo. From the depths of Ibiza to massive UK festivals to commercial Universities, no challenge is to Big for Ed & Jim to get their musical teeth into and the boys use their skills like master craftsman to tailor for each gig and production very specifically. The boys have an extensive knowledge of dance music and have used this to help sell in excess of 1,300,000 compilation albums to date, including UK Platinum Selling “Addicted to Bass ” series. With their long standing compilation deal with Ministry of Sound every single one of their albums has hit the Top 10 of the UK Charts including the prestigious No.1 spot. The boys reached #3 in the Uk charts with their latest Tv advertised release, “Back to Bass”
