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.

This is Dada Land. Get ready to arrive beautiful and leave ugly. There are no rules, but the rules of Dada. Don't look back in the past. Always go forward. And whatever you do: don't trust us.

From a young age, Higgins found solace in record shops, always on the lookout for the latest music. Like many DJs starting out, his passion for collecting records grew alongside his desire to develop a unique style and technique. He spent countless nights traveling to club events and distributing mixtapes, which was just the norm in those days.

His persistence eventually paid off, landing him gigs at venues across the UK, including a residency at 'The Edge' in Sheffield. During this time, he had the opportunity to play alongside iconic DJs like Mickey Finn, Grooverider, Swan-E, Hype, and SS.

But despite his success, Higgins felt something was missing. He was ready for a new challenge and a fresh direction. Influenced by producers like Brian Transeau, Blue Amazon, Paul Oakenfold, and especially Paul Van Dyk's legendary 7 Ways album, he began to seek out new musical horizons.

The turning point came with his introduction to Sasha & John Digweed. Their innovative style and impeccable track selection had a profound impact on Higgins, inspiring him to push his own boundaries further.

As a former resident DJ for Upcloseandpersonalmcr, one of the UK’s leading club nights known for its intimate atmosphere and world-class lineups, Higgins played alongside top-tier DJs such as Danny Howells, Nick Muir, Eelke Kleijn, Quivver, Guy Mantzur, Robert Babicz, Luke Brancaccio, and many more.

Now, as the driving force behind Secluded Events Worldwide and in partnership with Guerilla Music Agency, Higgins is gearing up for an exciting 2024 with major projects on the horizon.

His current favorite producers include Davi, Barry Jamieson, Sasha, Bedrock, MJ Hooker, D-NOX, Dilby, Nick Curly, Steve Bug, Gorge, Cybernalia, Audiojack, Nick Muir, TILT, Ian Bland, Luke Brancaccio, Steve Parry, and Quivver—the list goes on.

Higgins’ musical style is all about keeping the crowd moving, ensuring every set is a dance floor experience like no other. With his passion and vision driving him forward, the future looks incredibly bright.

Dubmatix is continually evolving his style, taking new influences on board on each new recording; by now it simply doesn’t do justice to the incredible breadth of his work to slap a ‘dub’ sticker on it. 

"...collaborations see him effortlessly incorporating all conceivable facets of reggae and dub with a striking self-assurance and combining them with an exceptional willingness to experiment and take new directions."

This kaleidoscope of variety is particularly in force of his upcoming brand new album. As well as working as a musician and producer, Jesse King is also a sought-after remixer and app designer, with recent remixes including tracks for the Easy Star All-Stars, John Brown's Body, Zion Train, Martha & The Muffins, Don Letts and Mungo’s HiFi. 

For his new album he spent 2 years in the past and a lot of time in tweaking the knobs on high class Roots Tunes inna crossover style…!
