No stranger to the music scene, Julian Munro aka KAIXEN hails from a musical family and trained as a contemporary jazz guitarist, playing in various bands in the past.  He forfeited a full economics major scholarship in order to pursue his music career – a decision he must be glad to have made.

He has received substantial support from tastemaker publications such as BBC 1xtra’s Jamz Supernova, Majestic Casual, The Fader, Run The Trap, Clash, and Indie Shuffle among others. Rightfully so as he has shared stages with the likes of Crywolf, Sango and Tim Gunter opening for Joan Jett and Two Door Cinema Club and headlining at the 2016 III Points Music Festival and Okeechobee Music Festival.

He now releases his new album. Entitled Pecado meaning “sin” in Spanish and Portuguese, the name perfectly sums up the hypnotic and tempting nature of the album.  The self-produced record features collaborations with experimental hip hop and R&B artists such as Twelve’Len, MRKI, Austin Paul, Christian Rivero, The Loft, Savannah Cristina, Dvwez & Native Youth and Silk Matthews.

His previously released singles off the album were ‘In Private’ and ‘Brand New’ telling stories of love and lust while reflecting on personal affairs. Similarly is ‘Wasting Time’ featuring Dvwez & Native Youth. More laid back than the previous two tracks, the sax-tainted song is a duet between the two vocalists in which Native Youth takes the lead.

KAIXEN had this to say about Pecado: “I hear everything a certain way and have an exact feel of how I want things to be. This whole album was really inspired by growth, but growth in doing things we know are wrong. I feel like life tests you, you can make the worst decisions in a given situation and it can stunt or catapult your growth.”




Pecado Tracklist:
1 – What You Think ft. Silk Matthews
2 – Just Like You ft. Austin Paul
3 – Locking Eyes ft. Cristian Rivero
4 – Brand New ft. Twelve’Len
5 – Wasting Time ft. Dvwez & Native Youth
6 – Through You
7 – Unfamiliar Energy ft. Savannah Cristina
8 – Survive ft. The Loft
9 – In private ft. MRKI
10 – Constellation In The Sky
11 – Run Away

Earlier this year she released her debut EP pairing her deft vocal abilities with her electronic production which garnered a lot online attention. She further made waves with her summer remix of Drake’s ‘Passionfruit.’

South Korean DJ and singer Yaeji is back with EP2 set to drop 3 November comprised of 5 new tracks including her version of Passionfruit.

Previous singles such as ‘Guap’ and ‘Last Breath’ she boasts a unique flow sounding much like rap easily switching between Korean and English.

She released her latest single off the EP ‘drink I’m sipping on’ along with the visuals in which Yaeji sports an oversized blazer with the words ‘Drink’ on the back.  She has traded in her signature four-on-the-floor style for a trap beat embracing her inclination towards hip hop.  Floating over the drums, she takes a laidback approach to personal failure and conflicted memories. It’s clear that she is on the “electro watch list” for this year – and it seems every other genre’s as she experiments with various styles.

Yaeji plays a number of shows at selected dates around the release of the EP: Paris (November 2nd), Los Angeles (November 4th) and Seoul (November 11th).

Check out ‘drink I’m sipping on’ below, perhaps it’s passionfruit:

Riton has teamed up with MNEK and House Gospel Choir for his latest dancefloor anthem, ‘Deeper’. Out now via Ministry of Sound, the soulful new single highlights all three artists incredible talent and  looks set to be another crossover smash.

‘Deeper’ follows the success of Riton’s previous singles ‘Money’ and his hit ‘Rinse & Repeat’. The latter was a UK Top 10 single, the third most played single on BBC Radio 1 in 2016 and was a record breaker on the Radio 1 Dance Chart, spending 7 weeks at #1. Surpassing 50 million streams to date, ‘Rinse & Repeat’ also earned the producer a coveted GRAMMY Award nomination for ‘Best Dance Recording’ at this year’s ceremony. Not stopping there, Riton is also riding high after producing and releasing Kah-Lo’s debut single ‘Fasta’ on his own imprint Ritontime. The track is currently on the Radio 1 playlist and featured as Annie Mac’s Hottest Record as well as Clara Amfo’s tune of the week.

A singer, songwriter and producer in his own right, MNEK is known for fusing pop, R&B and dance music to create hits perfect for the dancefloor and radio. Over the years, the acclaimed producer has received a wealth of success, working with a range of musical talent from the likes of Beyonce, Dua Lipa, Diplo, Rudimental, Jax Jones and Stormzy. In 2015, he became a household name with his multi-platinum selling single ‘Never Forget You’ with Zara Larsson. Their collaboration has had over 550 million streams to date.

Meet the choir that house built! Aside from collaborating with some of the biggest artists in the game including Loyle Carner, Gorgon City, JP Cooper and Hurts, House Gospel Choir have built their own fanbase as an artist entity. From touring this Summer with Annie Mac, opening West Holts at Glastonbury and performing with Annie Mac B2B Disclosure at Radio 1’s Ibiza takeover, HGC are poised to continue their burgeoning mainstream success with ‘Deeper’.

Over the course of the summer, Riton completed a rigorous run of festival dates where he played Tomorrowland, V Festival, SW4 and Bestival to name a few. Alongside these festival appearances, the producer also performed in Ibiza, where he took over the decks at Pacha, Ushuaia and Amnesia.

To round off 2017, Riton has been announced to play two dates at The Warehouse Project in Manchester, ‘Gorgon City presents Kingdom’ on 4th November and Jax Jones’ ‘HOUSE WORK!’ take over party on the 15th December alongside two London dates at The Egg on the 20th October and Electric Brixton on the 1st December.

‘Deeper’ is sure to prove a massive hit with both Riton and MNEK’s loyal followings, making the artists a solid fixture in the charts once more.

Garnering significant attention with the release of ‘Pays Her Bills ft Noah‘ as well as ‘Loud ft Naji,’ Evil Needle has released ‘Subsonic’ as the final track before the unveiling of his new album Abyssal.

A vigorous touring scheduling during the release of the album has not slowed the prolific beatmaker   down. He has played recent dates in Europe, Thailand and Africa, juggling track premieres with live shows.

Known for his collaborations with Troiboy, SIvey and Mr Carmack, Mo Vibez, Sivey, Elaquent, Freddie Joachim, JMSN, Doja Cat and Naji, Evil Needle stands out in the current Future Beats / Trap landscape by his multi-layered music personality. His savvy and finely chiseled productions are unique and pervaded with his multifaceted influences that include Mr Lif, Pharcyde, Bicasso, Hieroglyphics and Wu Tang Clan.

“I’ve always been producing a lot of different genres over the past 10 years” he says. “This release pretty much sums up my various producing styles, ranging from House, Future Beats and RnB to Trap and straight Boom Bap. Same styles, but deeper, aka Abyssal.”
