The younger generation of DJs have brought hard house back into the mainstream consciousness over the last 18 months, bringing a younger generation of hard house producers with it. Welsh DJ/producer Jake Taylor has been making a name for himself with both his productions and DJ sets after winning the Tidy 30 Weekender competition earlier this year, and this huge 2-track EP shows exactly why! Both tracks have had support right across the hard dance scene from Amber D, DJ No One, Jon Langford, DJ Brisk, Jon Hemming and many more.

Leeds duo Subvisions had a huge hit on Cheeky earlier this year with the summery, organ-driven vocal stomper 'Ibiza Donk', Now it's back for another go at the download charts with a massive new remix from one of Cheeky's longest running artists Groove Control, who's freshened it up with his new speed garage-flavoured sound influenced by the likes of Malugi. There's also a cleaner, beefier new version of the original from the Subvisions lads themselves!

Burnley bounce duo DvB Productionz are veterans of the Northern bounce scene, with tons of releases to under their belt on labels such as This Is Bounce UK, Klubbed, Manic Music and more. Now they're making a long overdue debut appearance on Cheeky Tracks with something a bit different to their previous output. 'Remember Me' is an atmospheric, trancey pumping house number in a similar vein to the commercial dance sounds that have been dominating the UK charts in recent years, and should be a big tune in the clubs over the next few months!

Scottish producer Luke EQ arrived on Cheeky in big style with his first two releases on the label, which were supported by some of the biggest names in UK hard dance. Now he's teamed up with Lee Sproat to bring us 'Falling', a massive vocal bounce number which combines classic scouse house and 90s Euro trance vibes. On the remix, Dirty Donk DJs pump things up even harder for the bounce floors, and Ste Willo gives it a pumping piano house flip in the style that's earned him support from some of the biggest names in the scene right now. There's also a classic trance-meets-EDM remix from Luke Davidson. 'Falling' has already been supported by DJ Brisk, Amber D, John Neal and more, and you can expect to hear it taking dancefloors by storm for the rest of 2025!

'Bass Is Pumping' has not only been a big tune in their sets this year, it's also had support from hard dance DJs across Europe such as Amber D and Panteros666. On the flip is 'Wanna Fck', a fast and thumping bouncy hard house flavoured banger. Expect to hear both tracks smashing a dancefloor near you for the rest of the year!

David Sheehan and Sarah Lennox have been DJing and producing individually in their homeland of Ireland for some time now, and now they've joined forces under the name Future FreQz to bring us their own take on the current hard house sound that's been smashing dancefloors around the world this year. They've already had one EP on the legendary Tidy Trax, and now they're making their long awaited Cheeky debut with a pumping Dutch-style number that takes classic 90s techno and house sounds and beefs them right up for the harder heads. 'The Flipside' has already had tons of support from DJ Brisk and Amber D on their live streams, and should be even bigger over the coming months!

Nadia's debut Cheeky release 'Time' has been scoring highly on the download stores charts in the last month, following huge support from some of hard dance's biggest names including Hannah Laing and Amber D! Now she's back with another huge vocal hard dance banger for her second release. 'Movin On Letting Go' combines UK garage and hard house vibes with a big vocal, breakbeat and organ breakdown dropping into a pumping offbeat bassline. There's also a banging UK bounce remix from Dirty Donk DJs! Expect this to be another huge hit for Nadia in the coming weeks.

Hard Techno/Tech house DJ & Producer

Bookings - Leroygreendj@outlook.com

As starting out in a duo with one of my best friends (HEALY) first hitting the scene in 2017 playing tech house at our first main Gig and soared from there… playing along side some of the mightiest house DJ’s in the game such as Sam divine, Jeramy Healy, Roger Sanchez, Danny O plus many more also, after a few years together we decided to go our seperate ways as I carried on in the tech house scene I was still going but their was always something inside of me that just wasnt the whole and I have always played techno slightly mixed into my tech house sets and on the side I always played Hard Techno and I always thought it was the hard side of music that I missed and it was, so I am now branching out as a Hard Techno DJ and producer as deep down that is the genre that makes me the happiest, I will always still play Tech House and always love Tech House so still expect some Tech House mixes and Funky House…. But yeah Hard Techno is the way to go!!!

General Bounce is West Yorkshire based DJ and producer Dave Gray, who has become a prominent figure in UK clubland playing hard dance, bounce and house.

Obsessed with dance music from an early age, Dave has been an active club DJ ever since he turned 18 in 2001, starting on the local club & bar circuit playing everything from house and speed garage to trance and hard dance, before finally settling into the hard dance scene in 2005 with a residency for Shock in Wakefield. He quickly became known for his widely-influenced and versatile DJ sets, combining as many elements as possible from the genres he loves. When Shock ended in 2007 Dave began making regular appearances on the Northern bounce scene, and over the next 4 years Dave was privileged to play at venues such as Wigan Pier and Doncaster Warehouse. Hard dance remained a passion of his during this time, and in 2007 he came third in the Parlez Vous DJ Competition.

Things came to a head in 2010 when he was picked up by the Cheeky Tracks brand as a resident DJ and producer. Dave held a residency in the Cheeky Tracks room at Rave On in Leeds for the next 2 years, and since then he has become a regular face behind the decks at hard dance and bounce events nationwide, performing at prestigious events and venues including the Tidy Weekender, BTID, Frantic, Storm, Rejuvenation and many more.

Since taking his first steps as a producer in 2006, Dave has had several solo and collaborative releases, collaborating with both established producers and new artists on the scene, co-producing some of his collaborators' first big hits and even being played on BBC Radio 1. To date Dave has produced over 50 tracks which been supported by some of the biggest names in hard dance, such as Hannah Laing, Kutski, BK, Rob Tissera, Technikal, Andy Whitby, Anne Savage, Amber D and Lisa Pin Up. His collaboration with fellow hard house producer Rick James “Ibuleve” was featured on Hannah Laing's exclusive DJ mix for Spotify in 2022, and his last solo release “House Trafficking” topped the Toolbox Digital Shop store chart for over a week. He has also collaborated on a UK hard trance track with his idol Rob Tissera, called “Get Up Stand Up”.

Dave is an ardent believer in playing all genres of dance music, exposing his audience to new sounds and making his sets as varied as possible. Through doing this he has developed a trademark sound of vocal, uplifting rave music that's both tough and fun. Dave's passion for all genres of music runs deep, and so does his collection. This earned him a residency at Void in Manchester's gay village - an afterhours venue where he regularly played 3 - 4 hour sets of upfront funky and vocal house, through to the lighter side of hard dance. Dave was a resident for the whole 6 years of the club’s lifetime, and played the final set there on his birthday in 2020, when Void closed its doors for good. He continues to spend most weekends DJing for various events nationwide, and since 2021 he has played annually at the Unity In The Sun festival in Corfu. He also hosts a monthly podcast showcasing his label's releases as well his versatility as a DJ. 

In 2012 Dave went from being a Cheeky Tracks artist to co-owner of the label, and took full ownership of the brand in 2015. Under his ownership, he has established the label as one of the biggest selling independent labels in the hard house scene, consistently appearing in the top 10 across several download stores. 12 Cheeky Tracks releases were rated Hard Dance Tune Of The Month in Mixmag from 2014 to its final print edition in 2020.

Over 22 years after his DJ career began, Dave is showing no sign of slowing down and continues to go from strength to strength.  Whatever path Dave's career takes, you can be sure he will continue to do play music the way he believes it should be.... happy, uplifting and stomping!

"Dave is a fantastic DJ - easy to say he's one of the best. He's a real pleasure to work with" - Rob Tissera
