Ed Buller

Ed's music career starting in earnest when he was 19. The Psychedelic Furs poached him to write and play on demos for their new album, Forever Now. During his time with the Furs, he co-wrote wrote seminal tracks like Love My Way, The Ghost in You, Heaven, and Heartbeat, helping to steer the band towards its iconic '80s sound. Ed joined the band as a touring member in 1982. Most at home in the studio, he left the Furs in 1987 to become in-house engineer at Island Records in London during one of its most creative eras, working with clients from Sly & Robbie to U2. In 1991 he decided to go on his own as a producer and engineer, immediately making waves with Spiritualized's epic psychedelic anthem Feel So Sad and the album Lazer Guided Melodies. With Everything's Alright Forever by the Boo Radleys he dipped a toe into the shoegazing movement. Mixing Slowdive's legendary Slouvaki album was a highlight of the era. His work with Pulp and Suede made him the name to drop in Britpop, earning Ed two Brit award nominations and a pair of Mercury Award nominations, one winning. Returning to his synth roots he formed analogue band NODE with Flood and played a much-discussed gig at London's Paddington Station in 1994. Between 1997 and 2005 he lived in the US, breaking new artists like Ben Lee and reviving established bands like Stabbing Westward, while studying composition at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. In 2009, he brought the huge cathedral pop of White Lies to number one, and also had hits with the Courteeners and co-writes with One Night Only, including a Coca-Cola anthem featured in the brand's global advertising. With Suede, he revisited the band's heyday with two critically acclaimed top-ten albums. During this time, he custom-built his own modular Moog system. Hans Zimmer invited him to work on the soundtracks for Chappie and Little Prince (for which he wrote two cues), He returned to work on Dunkirk. He also contributed synth programming for Lorne Balfe's Emmy-nominated Genius, and Pacific Rim. This has lead to numerous commissions for TV shows In The US and UK. He returned to London in 2020 to Produce Suede and White Lies again.
