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.

New album 'Rx' out NOW 💊
https://galantis.komi.io

Galantis is the dance music project of Christian Karlsson (aka Bloodshy). RIAA gold-certified debut
album Pharmacy reached No. 1 on the Billboard Dance album chart on the strength of gold-certified
single “Peanut Butter Jelly” and 3x platinum certified smash “Runaway (U &amp; I)” – the latter of which
earned a GRAMMY nomination for “Best Dance Recording” – while 2017’s sophomore album The Aviary
(featuring platinum-certified single “No Money”) saw a top 10 debut in 23 countries. The third Galantis
album, 2020’s Church, featured the chart-topping gold-certified single “Faith” with country music icon
Dolly Parton featuring Mr. Probz, which saw a #1 debut on Billboard’s Dance/Electronic Chart before
quickly reaching #1 on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay Chart where it remained for 5 weeks. Meanwhile,
gold-certified collaborative single “Heartbreak Anthem” with David Guetta &amp; Little Mix proved a global
sensation, spending 10 weeks on the Billboard Global 200 chart and 13 consecutive weeks in the top 10
on the UK Official Chart. Latest album, Rx, is Karlsson’s most deeply personal creation to date – featuring
pop banger “Lighter” with Guetta and 5 Seconds of Summer which landed No.1 on the US Dance Radio
chart. Galantis has received over 7.3 billion cumulative worldwide streams and over 1.9 billion video
views to date.
Karlsson has been at the helm of Galantis since 2009 before officially debuting the project at 2014’s
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. His career has spanned across the musical genres of punk-
rock, hip-hop and pop – including work as one half of acclaimed production duo Bloodshy &amp; Avant and
one third of indie pop band Miike Snow. Karlsson’s songwriting/production credits have included the
likes of Madonna, Kylie Minogue, Katy Perry and extensive work with Britney Spears (including “Toxic”
which earned a GRAMMY for “Best Dance Recording” and her widely acclaimed 2007 album Blackout).
As Galantis, he has crafted remixes for the likes of Coldplay, Selena Gomez, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith &amp;
more. Declared “pop’s mastermind producer” by UPROXX, “eternally effervescent” by Billboard and
“one of the most influential and untamed voices in modern music” by GRAMMY.com, the Swedish-born
artist continues to evolve and push the boundaries of songwriting within the world of dance music and
beyond.
