Marvin Humes

South Londoner Marvin Humes was raised on the sounds of Frankie Knuckles and Masters At Work by his father, who was also a DJ, and he supported his old man at gigs. Now he’s back behind the decks, hosting a show on Capital FM and playing Ibiza slots. Also going solo on the production front, Marvin is establishing himself with impressive outings on the LuvBug label he runs that channel surging, Balearic-influenced house. Floor-primed collabs with Kideko and A-Minor are due soon, check out a premiere of the latter below.

Billy Turner

Billy Turner is making impressions in the underground with his dark and visceral techno. The 23-year-old producer met Skream after blagging his way into DC10 following a chance meeting with Dense & Pika on a flight in 2016, and went on to sign his first EP to Of Unsound Mind. Now Alan Fitzpatrick, Kenny Glasgow and Tiga are championing his tracks. He’s got an impressive CV for someone fairly new to the game, with mixes on Rinse FM and BBC R1Xtra plus gigs at Fabric.

‘Resolution’ EP is out now on Kneaded Pains
