Wave

We do this because we love it. Because we eat, sleep and breathe it. Because without it, life would have no tempo or soul. Because it's expression, release, escapism and a means for a message. 

We do this. Because Of Art. 

Not just an excellent artist name, the young London artist has an impeccable track record for great dancefloor art, having featured regularly on Skream's Of Unsound Mind and, most recently Sasha's Last Night On Earth. Now making his debut on Catz N Dogz' Pets, he serves up two emotional, time capsules to some of the deepest house music foundations. 

'One Day' nods back to the euphoric early 90s with its big relentless pianos weaving and waving over swooning chords and a loose-limbed beat while 'Tell You' ups the juice with a sweet step into the late 90s Bedrock-style of pristine, upbeat progressive house. Shimmering layers that gather momentum, an evocative vocal and a crucial synth hook that hits with all the authenticity and emotion of a Renaissance reunion. 

Timeless art. We love it.

Because Of Art, London based producer Alex Grover has very quickly established himself as one of dance music’s hottest new talents. Hailing attention from ravers, DJs and tastemakers alike but most notably sharing bills with the likes of Sven Väth, Dusky, Eats Everything and more.

Combining forces with spoken word and indie hip-hop artist Antony Szmierek to make 'Circle of Light’ the track is a fusion of their signature identities. A peak time track that effortlessly encapsulates the urban sound of London, which makes you want to play the track on repeat. Juxtaposing dark and light tones with breakbeat rhythms layered with classic house arpeggios and strings that are destined for emotive peaks. Culminating with euphoric build ups with drops that reminisce classic rave tracks, this is an essential track to captivate the dancefloor.
