Originally starting out DJing under the name Girl U No Its True around 2007, Philip Gamble has been producing since he was 17. He developed his style gradually and shortened his name to Girl Unit early in 2010 before putting out his first EP,
I.R.L. on the Night Slugs label run by
Bok Bok and L-Vis 1990.
Girl Unit produces 808-based club tracks that transmit his love for american r'n'b – and he's not afraid of slow jams and pitched-up vocal snippets. A second EP featuring the title track "Wut" came out on the Night Slugs label in September 2010. "Wut" also kicks off the recently-released
Night Slugs Allstars, Vol. 1 compilation. During Girl Unit's DJ sets he tries to cohesively work his way through global house sounds, dirty south instrumentals, Detroit/Chicago classics, raw US club tracks and local bangers from rising UK producers, as well as his own productions and Night Slugs label mates' releases.
