==Biography==
A fan of the music featured on the Hyperdub website, Bevan began sending Steve Goodman (a.k.a. Kode9) letters and CD-Rs of his home-made music around 2001.〔(''Electronic Beats'' )〕 In 2005, the label released the ''South London Burroughs'' EP, which collected tracks recorded by Burial for several years prior. Burial's self-titled 2006 debut album was the first full-length release on Hyperdub. Despite early acclaim, Burial initially remained anonymous, and said in an early interview that "only five people know I make tunes".〔Hancox, Dan. "(Only five people know I make tunes )". ''The Guardian'', 26 October 2007. Retrieved on 21 January 2008.〕 In February 2008, ''The Independent'' reported that Burial was an alumnus of South London's Elliott School. The school's alumni also include Kieran Hebden (aka Four Tet), with whom Bevan has collaborated.
On 22 July 2008, ''The Guardian'' reported that Burial was a nominee for the 2008 Mercury Music Prize for his second album, ''Untrue''.〔(Mercury Prize Nominations ). Blogs.guardian.co.uk. Retrieved on 2011-11-23.〕 There was much Mercury Prize-related coverage in tabloid newspapers in the UK, including speculation that Burial was either Richard D. James (Aphex Twin) or Norman Cook. ''The Independent'' eventually reported Burial's identity as William Bevan, a resident of South London. Bevan eventually confirmed the information and posted a picture of himself on his MySpace page on 5 August 2008. A blog entry stated, "I'm a lowkey person and I just want to make some tunes", as well as announcing a forthcoming four-track 12″, and thanking his fans for their support up to this point. On 9 September 2008, Elbow won the award in question.
