Here comes a first EP by Josh Ludlow for Toy Tonics. Mastermind of Make a Dance aka M.A.D records. London’s best kept secret (or not so secret anymore) of new underground dance weapons that are played by everybody who counts in the scene. 

Josh delivers a hot 4 -tracker that will move people on dance floors worldwide. Combining 1990ies filter house influences, 2000s indie dance and some of the edgy contemporary funk moods that are lighting up clubs these days. The post - techno generation likes it funky, and Josh delivers. Fitting perfectly with the vibe of Toy Tonics, this EP will find a lot of friends. In fact, Josh knows how things work. 

Josh Ludlow has been steadily honing his craft over the past 15 years. Starting out releasing Drum & Bass under the ‘Squash!’ moniker in the late 2000s whilst also playing drums in bands. The former gave way to live touring, and it was only in 2020 when Josh resurfaced with some new electronic music. 

The impetus for releasing this new material was when Josh Ludlow & Ben Lewis formed their beloved project ‘Make A Dance’ (which then went on to establish the imprint), M.A.D Records during the pandemic.
Since then M.A.D have made a big impact on the underground scene, become regulars at places such as Fabric, Heideglühen, Gottwood and gained DJ support of people such as Laurent Garnier, Optimo, Palms Trax and Peggy Gou and across BBC Radio1 and regularly cover show’s on NTS for Long Running Host’s Moxie and Apiento.

This is just the beginning.
