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.

Supporting the best music!

The Dank 'N' Dirty Dubz Radio Show airs at 10am PST the first Wednesday of every month on DI.FM's Dubstep Channel: www.di.fm/dubstep

Sashwat is a US-based DJ, producer, and label owner that has been pushing high quality bass music since 2007. He's played alongside Avicii, D. Ramirez, The Widdler, Commodo, Swindle, Antiserum, Roommate, Coki, Distance, Truth, Reid Speed, HULK, Goldie, DJ Marky, 6Blocc, AK1200, Hellfire Machina, DJ Kue, Sub Swara, Kraddy, and more. Sashwat's monthly mixes, which he's been releasing since 2007, have featured countless genres such as dubstep, garage, hip hop, dub/reggae, jazz, deep/progressive/electro house, trance, techno, breaks, downtempo, drum and bass, and goa-psychedelic. In 2009, these mixes began airing consistently on the Digitally Imported Drum & Bass channel until the launch of his Dank 'N' Dirty Dubz radio show in January of 2010, which coincided with the launch of the Digitally Imported Dubstep channel.

A year later, in December of 2010, Sashwat expanded his Dank 'N' Dirty Dubz radio show into a bass music label, focusing on a wide variety of forward-thinking sub-genres. The labels releases have received support from the likes of Skream, Funtcase, Downlink, Matty G, NumberNin6, Brown & Gammon, J:Kenzo, DJ Wonder, DJ Allbury, Distance, Von D, Eptic, Genetix, Riskotheque, LOST, and Mat The Alien, to name a few.

In 2012, Sashwat took on the role of Channel Director for Digitally Imported Dubstep and launched the Digitally Imported Liquid Dubstep channel. He hand-picks the content that airs on both channels, catering to thousands of listeners 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
