ITS GAMETIME 😈

to book heist
Chris@uaagency.co.uk

Heist, also known as Strider if you’re looking to go way back into his discography, has been dominating, innovating and revolutionising speaker bins for 20 years now. No matter the year, his tunes always felt relevant, yet discernibly his, and in many cases were integral in pushing the limits of the Drum and Bass spectrum a bit further and a bit deeper than the status quo. His sound has travelled the ins and outs of the Drum and Bass super-highway many times, maturing as it grew from its humble yet bad and bashy beginnings found on classics like ‘Company 7’, ‘Beetle juice’, ‘Philly Styler’ and ‘Iron Hide’.

Also a badboy DJ for just as long (longer than heist in fact - he was dj’ing in the early 90’s under a different synonym). It’s tunes like ‘Go to work’, Sleep in ya eyes and ‘Don’t hold back’ as well as his high-octane DJ sets, that propelled him into super-stardom way-back-when. And in the minds of many, solidified Heist as a bonafide legend resulting in too many collaborations, endorsements and appearances to list. 
Having graced the catalogues of many iconic, foundational labels like Playaz, Charge, Ganja, V, Digital Soundboy, Frontline, Full Cycle, Philly Blunt, Low down deep and Metalheadz! All one needs to do to understand why Drum and Bass royalty like Dillinja, Hype, and Goldie, took notice so early on is…listen. Listen to any of it! It’s as though Heist had the foresight to be as fastidious about what he released to others as he has been about what he releases on his own signature imprints, Sumo Beatz, Calypso and Co-Lab.

Receiving previous critical acclaim whilst engineering for DNB forefather and legend, Goldie, as well as on his own celebrated productions, Heist has found a home for most of his current output on two-time award-winning label, Low Down Deep Recordings. Big things are coming on the label from Heist, like the cheeky ‘Bug Patrol’ and also ‘Felt Rich’ both doing dance floor damage from a host of DJ’s and support on BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM amongst other radio stations for both of these tracks and most likely more Heist bangers! Some exciting future projects are also in the works for a few labels that have yet to see the likes of Heist...The return of Sumo Beatz is also in store, with a bunch of ‘select cuts’ he has been just waiting to get out there on his own label. If history serves, there’s truly no telling what Heist will cook up next or how hard his freshly-brewed baselines will hit, but the future does look bright for the now DNB legend, to say the very least. With a plethora of music in the works as well as tour dates across Europe and the globe actively brewing in the cauldron, 2025 is looking deadly.

I MAKE MUSIC UK STYLE

Bookings: hizzleguy1@gmail.com


Bridging the gaps between grime, bass music and D&B, Trigga is one of the most versatile, talented micsmiths in the UK. A core member of the Shadow Demon Coalition and one of the key figures in the exciting Manchester bass movement, his lyrical skills have been in big demand since he was seven years old!

Brought up amid a thriving soundsystem culture, he was chatting on the one and only Saxon rig before he was out of short trousers. Bitten by the bug from that moment on, he’s never missed an opportunity to write new lyrics and hone his natural, relaxed-vibe flow. First on the pirates, then the big raves such as Hysteria, Pure X and the legendary Telepathy, Trigga’s rifled up the ranks of respectability with serious repeat bookings.

The same approach to Trigga’s skills can be found in the studio. With an ability to flex from grime-style to ragga to bona fide rap chatter, he’s in regular cohorts with some of the most forward-thinking producers across all shades of dance music. Currently working closely with Loefah’s Swamp family and fellow Manchester bass luminaries Zed Bias and MRK-1, there’s a whole wealth of exciting projects coming our way from Trigga very soon… And that’s before we get to the exciting Area161 project he’s currently devising.

Crucially aware of the powerful position an MC is in while never forgetting that his role on stage is primarily to entertain, Trigga ensures the perfect balance of consciousness and fun. Not just in his lyrical delivery, but in life; when he’s not in the studio or on stage he’s involved in community music based projects and workshops, providing a solid platform and firm guidance for the stars of tomorrow. This includes working with one of the UK’s most famous choreographers Arlene Phillips CBE for a seven minute performance to royalty at the opening ceremony of the Manchester Commonwealth games!
