If you're someone who gravitates to hypnotic basslines and vocals that hit you right in your core, KINGDM is an artist who needs to be on your radar. This Italian DJ and producer developed his love for music early on in his life and carries those influences with him to this day. First falling in love with the piano and classical artists like Chopin, he later developed a passion for rock music and inevitably, electronic as well. This pushed him to begin producing his own music and the result has been a number of stunning singles that bridge the gap between dance music and pop.

Since he began to release his own music, KINGDM has seen the likes of Zane Lowe and Annie Mac sing his praises and his tunes have graced some of the most influential radio stations as well. The past few years have seen him deliver collaborations like "Mexico" with Bipolar Sunshine, "FRFR" with Reo Cragun and Rowlan, as well as solo work such as "Dance for Me" and "Tear." More recently, he caught the ear of mau5trap who signed his vibe-inducing house tune "Together." Featuring a mesmerizing progressive bassline and vocals that are dripping with emotion, it's a solid jam to play during the earliest days of fall.

Looking to gain more insight on "Together," his roots in the scene, and future plans, we reached out to KINGDM for a chat. So read on to learn more about this dynamic artist, listen to his exclusive guest mix on SoundCloud, and make sure to download or stream "Together" on your preferred platform.

The six piece collective claims to have its Kibbutz somewhere in the Aegean Sea. Sirens Of Lesbos aka SOL (Sun in Spanish) have a serious, noble goal: They want to spread mantras – musically uplifting and spiritually meaningful songs that inspire you to embrace life in all its forms; that make you dance in your fantasy or in the real world. Their acclaimed debut single «Long Days, Hot Nights», is not only a balearic ode to the spirit of summer, but can also be seen as the first deep breath of a game-changing meditation. Om. 


American Men’s Fashion Magazine GQ recently picked the track as one of the best 25 songs of the summer 2014. From Ibiza to beyond – it is an amazing start for this unknown act from Greece who call their sound “Fantasy Music” and dedicate this record to DJ Alfredo – master of the Balearic Beat. Watch out for these 2 new remixes by Claptone & Fred Falke and the outstanding official music video directed by Camilla Mantovani and shot by acclaimed cinematographer Marc Gomez de Moral who has photographed videos for Pet Shop Boys, El Guincho, Sonàr festival, Two Door Cinema Club and The Battles and for the latter work was nominated for best cinematography in a video at the UK Music Video Awards 2011.

Claptone announces new album 'Fantast' and releases first album single 'In The Night: http://smarturl.it/claptone-inthenight

Claptone is a very unique proposition in modern music. Painted as a mythical character shrouded in mystery, Claptone has become one of the biggest names in electronic music whilst himself remaining in the shadows. He has however constantly saught to deepen his own distinctive world, creating a rich tapestry which tells the Claptone story.

In his second artist album ‘Fantast’, the Claptone universe is at it’s deepest and most vivid. He is the master of his domain and in his most artful offering yet, the assured 13 tracks of Fantast come together to create an album full of varied colours and atmospheric textures. 

So Claptone seeks not to create a world of secrecy, but one of great depth and intrigue. As one of the businest touring DJs and most prificfic producers around, Claptone is constantly unveiling more about the world he draws inspirstion from.  

An enigma with a tirless desire for creativity and thirst for new music, Claptone has brought together a diverse group of collaborators such as Boc Party’s Kele Okereke, Blaenavon, Tender, Jones, Zola Blood, Austra’s Katie Stelmanis, The Boxer Rebellion’s Nathan Nicholson, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and Matt Simons  

The first single In The Night features the vocals of Ben Duffy, which paired with Claptone’s insistent and upbeat production, makes for an exquistley executed electronic pop gem. It marks an engaging opening snapshot for what will be a milestone in his already glittering career. 







We caught a glimpse of his ambition to produce a body of work in Claptone’s debut artist album Charmer which has scored over 60million streams and counting, but it’s in Fantast that Claptone really delves deeper into the art of songwirting. 

2018 will see another intense year of touring with Claptone presenting his immersive Masquerade event experience at bigger venues and festivals having built momentum over the last 18 months hosting events at Tomorrowland, Melt Festival, Elrow at Amnesia Ibiza, Green Valley Brazil, Melbourne St Kilda and more.

'Over the last two years it has been a great pleasure to work on this album as a counterpoint to the hectic world of travelling as a DJ. To lose myself when making music, to dive into and create my very own realm of beauty. I admit it's a dreamy, a heartfelt, at times a naive and surely escapist album, but what to do if one - on the quest for his soul - develops a strong desire to go back to his roots, back to nature? Did I find myself on that journey? Rather not. But I found some beautiful moments in the green, out in the woods, out in the fields, under the moon and in the night, moments, which I want to share with you. And there is one thing I learned and now it can be told, I am and have always been a ‘Fantast’.'

In a now long forgotten world, many generations ago, a bird like shape emerged from wooded darkness, floating and fluttering, drifting and dreaming. Backlit by a bright glow of iridescent light, the undecipherable form wore a dazzling golden mask. Its long beak swooped down like an inverted horn and since then, people have referred to the mythical being simply as Claptone...
