Kidnap is an artist whose music overflows with emotion - rich and powerfully evocative.

Recording in London, Kidnap (real name Matthew Relton) likens his process to that of a sculptor, starting with a block of sound and chopping away until a shape emerges. As such, each song exists ornately carved with a handcrafted subtly.

Still just 33, Relton is already something of an industry veteran. Releasing his first single in 2012 kicked off an eight-year stretch of global touring that came to a grinding halt when the pandemic put the world on pause.

2024 marks a new chapter for Kidnap, with his next body of work on the horizon. Set against the backdrop of a changing world and the arrival of a baby daughter, Relton offers a bittersweet reflection on the passing of time. ‘It’s about looking back on the last 12 years — the touring and the friends and the sleeplessness,” says Relton, “and realising that in order to embrace the life I have now, I need to let it all go.’ The music shimmers with nostalgia. Signature sad melodies dance deftly around commanding synth lines, altogether sounding like an artist with a new found sense of purpose.

Smooth vocal stylings and lyrics that beckon for love; musical artist D'Amore brings traditional love back to R&B.

His influences are resplendent of the classic sounds of Donny Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Barry White, Conway Twitty and Teddy Pendergrass to modern artist like Adele, Bruno Mars, Usher and Big Daddy Kane.
D'Amores songwriting skills are creative and simply beautiful. Performing live at a grand piano or keyboard, the Brooklyn, N.Y crooner sings and plays with electrifying passion. Harnessing his talent the self taught musician has adapted many styles of music from blues, soul, rock, pop, country and hiphop throughout the years on the road. The outcome is the makings of a Maestro of Music.

D'Amore's great presence as an entertainer began with many years of struggle and hard work. He began writing and producing songs for himself and other local artists.
Eventually catching the ear of the late music executive and film producer Clarence Avant, D'Amore was signed to Universal Music Publishing. The connection landed him a track on hiphop artist Lloyd Banks album Rotten Apple. The track entitled "Ice Man" was produced by him. Still not fully satisfied in the direction he was going, D'Amore says, "I decided to strike out on my own. I really wanted to get back to my roots in R&B soul and develop more there. There was so much more to learn and do" Through greater focus and study, D'Amore learned the art of seduction through his lyrics, chord progressions and sound. He uses raw emotion to connect to the listener.

D'Amore is always elevating his music forward, whether by doing local gigs or on the road. These days he finds himself in his home studio crafting new songs using the latest technology has to offer. He is also is working on ways to use great visuals, lighting, video screens, etc to enhance his audiences experience. Future endeavors include national and international shows at theatres and arenas. D'Amore's musical gifts, raw talent, vision and growing repertoire promises a great future.

Duke Dumont is a contemporary electronic music powerhouse. Deeply committed to creating high quality music imbued with emotional depth, Dumont is versatile, extremely adept and hard working. His illustrious career has taken him on tour around the world, many times over, and placed him in the top tier of electronic music artists of his ilk.

Since 2007 Duke Dumont has channeled his deep love for electronic music into a variety of acclaimed releases, moving through pumping electro and vibrant techno to conquer the UK charts with “Need U 100%.” His early releases on Tiga’s Turbo Recordings helped establish his reputation for producing high quality club music that moves the dance floor, physically and emotionally. By 2012 he’d produced two career-defining EPs - For Club Use, Vol 1 and For Club Use, Vol 2. Tracks like “The Giver” cemented Dumont’s rep for catchy hooks, precision arrangement and powerful emotion. A year later he hit the No.1 spot in the UK charts with “Need U (100%) (featuring A*M*E),” demonstrating his ability to merge classic house motifs with first-rate songwriting.

“Need U (100%)” was followed with another UK No.1 “I Got U,” both songs achieving platinum sales. Between 2013 and 2020 he hit the Billboard Dance Chart No.1 with seven singles, including "The Power,” “Won’t Look Back” and “Ocean Drive.” With each release Duke Dumont stayed true to his club roots, achieving widespread success.

Dee Montero is a lifer. He’s the former Mambo Ibiza resident who at the end of 2017 received Pete Tong’s Essential Tune Of The Year on BBC Radio One for the string-fuelled, epic end-of-nighter ‘Halcyon’, originally released on Solomun’s acclaimed Diynamic imprint. And he’s been busy ever since with various eps including ‘Pangaea’ on Knee Deep In Sound, ‘Shadows’ on All Day I Dream and also the scintillating ‘In The Wild’ and ‘Headspace’ featuring Meliha on Anjunadeep.

From Asia to America and everywhere in between it’s all been about the music for Dee. Performances in Australia, India and Dubai have been interspersed with US tours and appearances at Burning Man on the Robot Heart and Carl Cox Playground stages as well as summer shows in Ibiza including Hï with Joris Voorn and Nic Fanciulli.

In 2020 Dee launched his own imprint Futurescope bringing in fellow musical alchemists Patrice Baumel, Fort Romeau and Lauer for remix duties. He unleashed his diverse 12 track artist album ‘Artifacts’ to the world in 2022 playing to those deft melodic touches, twinkling synths and positive peaks. ‘Maya’, the standout track from the LP and a homage to Future Sound Of London’s ‘Papua New Guinea’ got a special rework from mastermind Rodriguez Jr. pushing the release to even bigger, higher heights. 

As well as forthcoming eps on Nora En Pure’s Purified label later this year Dee’s next single ‘Freedom’ on Hot Since 82’s Knee Deep In Sound will continue the upward electronic pressure into summer 2023. These are exciting times for an artist with Dee’s attention to detail and there are so many sonic terrains still left to discover…
