Label Focus: Hessle Audio
The shape-shifting label that has helped redefine UK club music
Untold 'Anaconda / I Can’t Stop This Feeling' (HES008)
"At the time of its release, we thought of ‘I Can’t Stop This Feeling’ as being quite straightforwardly a dubstep record, but in 2016 it makes perfect sense as a skewed London techno track. ‘Anaconda’ on the flip side summed up the ethos around FWD>> at the time, which was that anything could fit, as long as it was 140bpm and underpinned by sub-bass. This is definitely one of the most out-there records we’ve released - but also one of the most widely played, which is really gratifying!"
Blawan - 'Iddy' (HES013)
"Untold was contacted on Myspace by a young guy from Sheffield going under the name Blawan back in 2009 - he passed on the tracks to us as he thought we’d be interested and we signed them straight away. It’s been incredible to see Jamie grow into the artist he is today."
