Posthuman are cousins Rich Bevan and Josh Doherty. First writing together as teenagers, messing around with old drum machines and a 4-track, their debut release came as part one of Skam Records highly sought after SMAK series - their debut live show at the label's Compression party, supporting rave legends Altern8. The duo then went onto form Seed Records, which between 2001 and 2006 saw three full Posthuman albums and an EP, as well as some of the first releases from acts such as Ardisson, Digitonal, and The Doubtful Guest. Their signature style is a dark, melancholic, and multi-layered sound, unrestricted by genre - they comfortably move from techno to post-rock, electronica to industrial.

The cousins also cemented themselves into the UK electronic music scene as promoters, running the infamous abandoned tube station parties at Aldwych Underground, London - which saw performances from the likes of Aphex Twin, Plaid, Funkstörung, Luke Vibert, Goldfrapp and many others. More recently hosting the SOVIET parties at the old Coronet Cinema, and the I Love Acid raves, both in London.

As well as Posthuman, they write music as The House Husbands, Snapmouth, Walter Becomes Wendy, On/Off, and various other monikers. Josh also records and performs as AGT Rave Cru, and is part of electronic/modern classical crossover outfit Digitonal.

Seed Records is now run by Posthuman's longtime friend and collaborator Bruce McClure, Josh went on to help re-launch seminal UK techno imprint B12 Records, and is now involved with starting a new vinyl-based label called Balkan Vinyl. Posthuman are currently recording their fourth studio album, for release late 2008/early 2009.

A six track EP that is a collection of unreleased tracks from the same era as their 2006 album The People's Republic, with an accompanying limited edition CD containing recent reworkings and remixes will be released through Myuzyk in July 2008.
