Catching Flies - real name George King - returns with new single ‘Oi’. Fusing UKG sensibilities with live instrumentation and warm, sophisticated textures; ‘Oi’ is a bright dancefloor banger aiming to keep the summer alive for a few more weeks. 

George explains, “I was trying to channel the feeling of those long, hot school holiday summers in London in my teens; listening to MJ Cole, Wookie, Artful Dodger and having crushes on people who didn’t feel the same way. ‘Oi’ is an ode to that era of my life and an attempt to write something a bit more fun and light hearted.”

Was an honour to be asked to do the BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix. I grew up listening to the Essential Mix and still can’t quite believe I got to do my own. The basic idea was to make a soundtrack of my life over the past 20 years and weave it all into some kind of journey. Didn’t see myself mixing MJ Cole’s ‘Crazy Love’ with a Chick Corea record but it happened… and The Streets ‘Has It Come To This?’ with Arkist’s ‘Fill Your Coffee.’ That Artkist tune was the song that made me want to start producing - I used to play it on repeat whilst living in Brighton in 2011 - still sounds fresh in 2024 I think. I ended the mix with a new song of mine called Ojai. Big thank you to Pete Tong and Radio 1 for having me. Enjoy!

 ‘Satisfied’ is a slice of sophisticated dance music that nails the sweet spot between headphones and dancefloor. It sees Catching Flies focusing his attention on the dancefloor for the first time with stunning results – ‘Satisfied’ is highly textured, deeply melodic and effortlessly marries live instrumentation (guitars, harps, a string quartet…) with warm electronics. The single consists of a three-track package, including a more immediate Edit and an ‘Ambient Reprise’ which serves as a hazy recollection of the night before. As Catching Flies explains: ‘the tune has so many different layers and tracks (186 to be precise!) and went through various different versions over time… so I wanted to celebrate that.’

Catching Flies’ music draws from a wide-ranging palette of influences including jazz, soul, hip-hop, house and electronica and has previously seen him handpicked by Bonobo to provide support on his World Tour. Catching Flies has gathered over 60 million streams to date, praise from the likes of Dazed & Confused, iD Magazine, The Guardian and Nowness, radio support from Gilles Peterson, Annie Mac, Lauren Laverne, Julie Adenuga & Huw Stephens and a growing fanbase which has seen him perform across the UK, Europe, the USA and Asia.

Catching Flies’ forthcoming single ‘Silver Linings’ taken from his debut album (release 5th July 2019), is a slice of sophisticated electronica that nails the sweet spot between headphones and dancefloor. ‘Silver Linings’ is highly textured, deeply melodic and effortlessly marries live instrumentation (guitars, harps, a string quartet…) with warm electronics. To a casual listener, its pulse and lavish keyboard layering might sound familiar – the kind of thing you recognise from the likes of Bonobo or Caribou. But with ‘Silver Linings’, the structuring is unique, the way it draws you through narratives, leading you in and out of its androgynous sampled vocal loops nothing short of magical…meticulous production manipulations make surfaces glitter, crackle and crunch in a way that constantly calls into question what is electronic and what is ‘real.’
