THAT’S A WRAP! 🎬

Saturday night brought to a close a truly magnificent year musically 🎧 After the amazing year I had in 2024, I never thought it would be topped so quickly, if at all, but 2025 has been the busiest, most chaotic and most fun year so far! 😎 Here’s a lil recap:

•47 sets across 40 different events
•5 festivals
•4 Cities/Towns
•19 venues
•18 b2b partners

Upmost respect, appreciation and love to all the promoters for booking me, to all the wicked selector’s I’ve had the pleasure of sharing the decks with & to all the people who have supported me on this wicked journey this year, whether its been listening/liking/sharing my mixes and/or social media posts or coming out and watching my sets. I honestly appreciate you all so much and am so grateful as I would not be in this position if it wasn’t for all your belief and support 🫶🏼

We ain’t stopping anytime soon either babyyyy! 2026 is already shaping up to be another incredible year with some HUGEEE bookings confirmed already, which I cannot wait to share with you all 😏 Keep an eye out on my socials for more info on this over the coming weeks/months 👀

Hope everyone has a magical Christmas and wicked new year 🎄🥳

Lots of love,

Finally had the time to record the fifth & final instalment of my Balter Blues mix collection. This year’s extended mix consists of 90 minutes of tracks solely produced by artists who have played & I have seen play at Balter over the years I’ve attended the festival 🔥 Easily one of the best & personal favourite mixes I’ve recorded with lots of different flavours/genres, tempo changes, heavy hitting drops & epic build ups/breakdowns.

All support on the mix is greatly appreciated & whilst I’m here, I would also like to send my love & appreciation to everyone who caught my set on the DRM stage on the Friday from 6-7pm, and to the DRM crew themselves for giving me the opportunity to play at my favourite festival on its final year. Memories I will treasure forever 💚🤍 For those of you who weren’t at the set or couldn’t attend Balter this year, here’s some videos from the set - massive love to @vintage_cam_ for capturing this beautiful hour & a bit through these wicked photos and videos 📸🫶🏼

Link to the mix can be found through the link in my bio or on my story! RUN THAAA TRACK 💿

(Please Note: this is not the set I played at the festival).

BALTER FOREVER (2014-2025) 🎪🧿

Where do I even begin? Boomtown that was fucking incredible! Hands down the best year yet for me 🔥 Words cannot describe how grateful I am to @selectorspinach & @djmooreman for giving me the opportunity to play 3 sets out across the week - one with my JCBass kru, one solo set and the highlight of my fucking life so far in Area 404 with my partner in crime @jehmz_uk 🤯 When I say JC, you say Bass!

Was so much fun playing on @selective.soundsystem at @zone1events yard party at @the_black_swan_bristol on Saturday 🦢 The Swan is one of Bristol’s most iconic venues and one that’s always eluded me until now so big love to Z1 for the opportunity & to all the ravers for coming along to my set and having it out 🫶🏼

A year ago to the day when I had the honour to play at the last ever @balterfestival on the iconic @devon_rave_massive stage 🟩⬜️🎪

To think this time last year I was running about Chepstow Racecourse, mentally preparing myself for what turned out to be one of the best sets I’ve played to date & genuinely one of my favourite memories in life so far is a mad feeling! 🤯

Big love to DRM for the opportunity, to everyone who came down and had it out & to Balter, obviously 😜 Forever in our hearts ❤️
