October 27, 201312 yr 9 (from 8) Wilkinson - Afterglow [D] http://a2.mzstatic.com/us/r30/Music/v4/33/fc/af/33fcaff0-9282-451c-cd89-8b730833b30d/13UAAIM67463.170x170-75.jpg Chart Run: 8-9 [2 wks] Release date: 13-10-2013 Format: download only single Label: Ram Records Sales: 30k+ Video here: I9QGpHScGug Biography Hailing from the leafy suburbs of South West London is Ram Records’ Wilkinson. His first insight into making music came at the age of 9 when his parents bought him a drum kit. Mark ‘Wilkinson’ joined a few bands and was playing at venues as far as the Birmingham NEC and as close as the local old peoples home. This swiftly ended at the age of 14 when Wilkinson discovered his passion for dance music amongst other things. In his final year at college Wilkinson tried his hand at making beats in the college studio, this lead to him buying his first bits of production gear and turning his bedroom into a studio. A few years and part time jobs later, after driving his family mad with large amounts of bass loosening the brickwork of his house, Mark secured himself a studio not far from his home. After fine-tuning his production skills, Wilkinson passed a few songs on to Hospital Records via Cyantific, which led to his first release on Hospital Records’ Sick Music 2 compilation. A few months later Wilkinson sent a folder of tunes to Ram Records and within days received a phone call from Andy C inviting him for a meeting at the Ram Records HQ. October 2010 saw three of Wilkinson’s songs featured on Andy C’s Nightlife 5 album and releases including ‘Moonwalker’/‘Samurai’, ‘Refuge’, ‘Get Into It’ and the mighty ‘Everytime’/‘Overdose’ doing damage across dance-floors worldwide, winning fans from Skream, Mista Jam, Chase & Status and High Contrast in the process. Since then Mark won the ‘Best Breakthrough Producer’ award at the National D&B Awards 2012 and has remixed Chase & Status, Example, Nero, Professor Green, Wiley and Jakwob to much critical acclaim. He’s also currently working on production projects for Relentless, Atlantic and Island Records. 2012 saw Wilkinson up the levels once more, releasing the mighty ‘Automatic’ in the summer, followed by the hit record ‘Need To Know’ feat. Iman which topped the iTunes Electronic chart, was championed by the likes of Zane Lowe, Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw, was Sara Cox’s daytime Record Of The Week and spent 4 weeks on the Radio 1 playlist. Hotly tipped to do big things across drum & bass and electronica, Wilkinson released ‘Take You Higher’ to much critical acclaim, again topping all D&B charts and receiving numerous daytime Radio 1 spins. Following on from ‘Heartbeat’ feat. P Money & Arlissa which again topped all d&b charts and was playlisted across BBC 1Xtra, Wilkinson releases ‘Afterglow’ ahead of his debut album on Ram Records titled ‘Lazers Not Included’ this Oct 2013. He continues to tour worldwide from Sydney to Berlin, Barcelona to Brighton with his dynamic and energetic DJ sets including festival performances this summer at EDC Las Vegas, Mallorca Rocks, Exit, Nass, Global Gathering & Bestival.

October 27, 201312 yr Damn, I forgot to vote this to the top on the reshuffle chart. Brilliant song :wub:
October 27, 201312 yr This is great, the video is amazing especially. :heart: It sounds like it'd be really motivating to run to. :lol:
October 27, 201312 yr Hearing Becky Hill in the charts just reminds me how I wish Bo Bruce had more success with her singles. Both 'Save Me' and 'The Hands I Hold' are so special. -- 'Afterglow' is quite good and the video is quite striking!

October 27, 201312 yr This has actually grown on me over the past couple of days, but I prefer Carry You. :P
October 27, 201312 yr 'Beautiful Life' is actually shockingly quite good (the chorus at least). I think this would have done better than 'Carry You' if it was the first single. #8 is quite decent for them anyway after how bad a start they got off to.
October 27, 201312 yr This single sounds quite out of place on the album. It's full of dance-pop stompers surprisingly :o
