ANOTR

The art of blending, mixing, compiling and making music into something you’ve never heard before whilst looking for new ways to approach house music. That’s what ANOTR stands for. Characterised by their hypnotic, energetic and slick beats with influences from disco, soul, funk, jazz and every thing in between, their music is a blend between the old and the new, whilst finding the sweet spot between what is made for clubs and what is made for live performances. The Amsterdam - based pair believe that the way to move forward is to follow what is right for you as an artist, instead of following what is right in public opinion. Expect the unexpected. Feel inspired by what you already know about music but be open to learn even more. ANOTR will guide you t h rough their way of thinking, interpreting mu sic and their way of challenging you to hear what else is possible. Act before you think, forget the rules, and let us take you on our journey into sounds selected, curated and created by ANOTR. - RA

 

Abel Balder

After amassing 250 million streams with his instrumental beats on Spotify, Amsterdam born and raised Abel Balder took on a new challenge when underground house duo ANOTR asked him to contribute his signature guitar sound to their debut album ‘The Reset’. Over time the sessions took a different turn when Abel started to sing as well and the enthusiasm Jesse and Oz showed him about his vocal skills, gave the young singer the push he needed to sing on a record for the first time, leading to the creation of Relax My Eyes, Vertigo and Your Mind. The love they all received when ANOTR played the tracks in their DJ sets, made Abel aware that he could move people with his voice and slowly he started to realise singing was his calling all along. Using songwriting as a tool to integrate emotions, heal subconscious wounds and harmonise life’s contrasting energies, Abel’s impulsive nature and love for a wide range of genres inspire an eclectic and recognisable yet refreshing sound. - Spotify

If only 'Sprinter' could drop down the chart as Usain Bolt, instead its staying in the chart as a long-distance runner like Mo Farah, Paula Radcliffe.

Biography

 

Bou is a standout graduate of drum & bass’s new generation. As Beatport has documented, the second half of the previous decade saw a renaissance in jagged, jump-up sounds that propelled a whole crop of producers to the forefront of the genre. A vanguard of established artists — most notably the Kings of the Rollers — led the charge, but Bou and others were one row back, crafting their sound and shaping drum & bass’s roughshod evolution. After a friend introduced him to drum & bass through the free party scene, Bou got hooked on YouTube production tutorials and the SoundCloud jump-up community from the age of 16. Now 25 years old, Bou is a highly successful artist and touring DJ, having recently remixed both High Contrast’s classic “Kiss Kiss Bang Bang” and DJ Fresh’s “Gold Dust.” With an upward-trending trajectory and a sound that has begun to move into more radio-friendly territory, Bou is entering the next chapter of his story. Bou’s trajectory has matched the rising fortunes of the genre as a whole, and it’s impossible to deny that he has played a central role in the rough-and-tumble jump-up sounds that have defined the genre. Should drum & bass take a turn toward the mainstream, it seems likely he’ll help write that chapter too. - Beatportal

Biography

 

Dave

Challenging power and perception with a free-spoken approach to rap, Dave has indelibly amplified hip-hop’s voice in Britain. Born David Orobosa Omoregie in Brixton, London in 1998, Dave suddenly implanted himself in the UK rap scene in 2016, first with the electric grime alliance “Thiago Silva” with AJ Tracey and then when Drake jumped on the remix of the velvety “Wanna Know” from Dave’s first EP, Six Paths. Rebuffing label advances to pursue his career independently, he demonstrated a self-reliant streak on releases such as his 2017 EP Game Over, whose “Question Time,” a scathing attack on Theresa May’s Conservative government, garnered him an Ivor Novello songwriting award. Dave’s full-length debut, the Mercury Prize winner Psychodrama, followed in 2019; epitomizing his achingly honest rap style, it laid bare personal vulnerabilities while challenging institutional racism in a provocative fashion rarely heard in British rap. The centerpiece of the lavishly soundscaped album was “Black,” a heart-wrenching portrait of the prejudice affronting Black lives. At the 2020 BRIT Awards, where Psychodrama won Album of the Year, Dave started his performance of “Black” by accompanying himself on piano and ended it by excoriating British Prime Minister Boris Johnson as a “real racist” and executing a perfect mic drop. - Apple Music

 

Central Cee

Central Cee is proving himself to be one of London’s most exciting emerging artists. Whilst only just turning 22, the rapper had already released a slew of solid tracks in addition to a powerful Next Up Freestyle on Mixtape Madness reflecting the rising star’s versatility and distinctive delivery. Building on this foundation, in 2020, Central Cee has gone from strength to strength dropping two singles ‘Day In A Life’ and ‘Molly’, with both tracks having racked up 8 million audio streams collectively. The heat surrounding Central Cee along with some killer short freestyle videos showcasing Central Cee’s lyrical abilities has led to him doubling his instagram following in a matter of months (currently 135K). He’s also gained support from various artists at home and abroad including a co-sign from US rapper Big Sean. Music has been an integral part of Central Cee’s upbringing, dating back to the tender age of 8. His eagerness to create his own musical legacy is deeply rooted within his earliest memories of absorbing the rich sounds of his dad's old school hip hop collection. - Spotify

Biography

 

The country world feigned surprise when, after three albums of Music Row-indebted songcraft, Taylor Swift formally embraced pop on 2012’s Red. But no one should have been shocked: Any 14-year-old capable of persuading her parents to move from suburban Pennsylvania to Nashville for her career clearly has ambition to burn. And the thrill of following Swift’s rise has been watching her execute it flawlessly, largely because her melodic intelligence is equal to that ambition. Her early, youthful love songs heralded 2010's newly self-possessed Speak Now—which showed off her scathing wit—and evolved into knowing, ironclad pop fare that held its own against boisterous Max Martin production on 1989, her fifth album, titled after her birth year. Throughout, her songwriting has blurred the lines between the public and private, burying enough real-life clues (about, say, scarves and Starbucks) to make clear that only Swift can own her narrative, thank you very much, while still retaining a lyrical elegance. Though 2017’s reputation might have been perceived as a gorgeously constructed piece of dramatic theater—its attendant heroes and villains all real-life characters from Swift's public feuds—all that spectacle proved an attention-grabbing cover for her most romantic album yet. She turned up the romance even more on 2019’s Lover, but it was 2020’s folklore and its companion, evermore—ruminative, relatively lo-fi albums written and recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic—that earned her the Apple Music Award for Songwriter of the Year. - Apple Music

Biography

 

Rudimental

Music knows roots but not borders, and the same is true of Rudimental. Since forming in 2011, the London quartet of producers (Piers Aggett, Kesi Dryden, Amir Izadkhah, and Leon Rolle) has faithfully championed UK dance music’s hybrid spirit, fusing drum ’n’ bass, house, reggae, and more into a soulful amalgam. When they appeared with early singles like the barnstorming 2012 anthem “Feel the Love,” there was nothing else like them out there: UK underground dance tilted toward cozily retro house, while EDM was in ascendance around the world. Rudimental sidestepped both trends, favoring songwriting over club tracks and pulling from a broad range of inspirations—though songs like the shuffling “Spoons” proved them adept at the deepest strains of UK garage, and “Waiting All Night” could dwarf the biggest main-stage banger. Rather than hog the limelight, the producers turned the lens back on the multicultural stomping grounds of their native Hackney, whose famous Peace Carnival mural is depicted on the cover of their debut album, 2013’s Home. Similar themes of solidarity and community uplift powered subsequent albums; so did the group’s knack for finding exactly the right singer for their songs. In addition to their rotating cast of top-shelf contemporary vocalists like MNEK, Sinead Harnett, and Ed Sheeran, they brought in bona fide legends like soul icon Bobby Womack and South African choral group Ladysmith Black Mambazo. It’s a way of acknowledging that, much as dance music needs to keep moving forward, it’s nothing if it forgets its past. - Apple Music

 

Charlotte Plank

Charlotte Plank is a 22 year old singer-songwriter-producer inspired by an eclectic array of artists, genres and eras from 90s grunge and DnB to modern Pop. Her music will take you through from the commute to the rave, bridging the underground to the mainstream alongside bringing you a nostalgic yet new unique sound. Charlotte has been set up for an exciting 2023; featured in NMEs 100 emerging artists for the year and as one of the legendary Zane Lowe's artists to watch in 2023. - Spotify

 

Vibe Chemistry

Vibe Chemistry is a UK based Drum & Bass producer best known for his Radio 1 play-listed track ‘Balling’ and other vibe filled hits such as ‘Living Like This’ & most recently ‘Baddest’. Since 2012 Vibe Chemistry has been inspired by all spectrums of Drum & Bass and since July 2021 landed his first label deal with DnB Allstars with his ‘Balling EP’. Balling hit #1 in the UK Top 200 Shazam Chart, #1 on Beatport, was B-Listed at Radio 1 and sat top 40 in the UK singles chart for 7x weeks. After this success he also released an Edit inviting talented vocalists to put their spin on his track. On Spotify alone he now has 8 (and counting) tracks with over 1 million plays, showing that the future is looking highly positive for Vibe Chemistry and we can’t wait to hear what he releases next. - Spotify

...although it was up about 1k from its Wednesday midweek figure the previous week so I think it very likely has at least 3 more weeks still

 

Lol at both 'REACT' and 'Closer' being played.

 

And oh boo at 'Karma' ending up returning instead of 'Anti-Hero' after all.
