The Black Butter OG debuts his fresh project with an original track

Kidnap Kid has unveiled his new label, Birds That Fly Records, and paired the exciting announcement with a self-titled melodic release.

Born Matt Relton, Kidnap Kid has been producing and putting out tracks with Black Butter Records for over five years, his most notable achievement being his track 'Vehl' named US iTunes "Best Electronic Song of 2012".
