Michael Whiteside, inventor of Unwind cables, has spent the last 30 years working in music creation, recording, reproduction, and live performance.  His early career was in music studios, eventually becoming the in-house technical engineer at cult studio, The Garden, owned by John Foxx of Ultravox.

Michael began sound engineering in music studios across London in the 1980s, landing as in-house engineer at cult studio, The Garden where many influential bands recorded seminal works including The Cure, Depeche Mode, Lloyd Cole, Bronski Beat, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds,and studio owner and Ultravox founder John Foxx.

Through this work, Michael began to realise that cable design is one of the most underdeveloped, yet most influential factors in audio presentation. He designed and manufactured bespoke cables for audio professionals and HiFi enthusiasts. His cables are now installed in studios across the UK, including multiple EMI Abbey Road facilities, Air Studios, Marshall Amplification Studios and Cenzo Townshend’s Decoy Studios.

Unwind is the culmination of this adventure. Alongside the bespoke manufacture of our products in North Wales, we are also lucky enough to be working with some of the most exciting music studio developments in the UK.
