Ben Hauke announces debut album 'CLUB CUTE'

South London producer and DJ, Ben Hauke, has announced his debut album, ‘CLUB CUTE’.

'CLUB CUTE' is set to land on Touching Bass on June 21, and is described as “a love letter to club culture” — with the first single ‘HEYYYYY’ on Bandcamp and streaming services now.

Hauke describes the single as a "tunnel channelling my subconscious. A jittery meditation; welcoming 'Club cute to the universe.”

For the project, Ben has enlisted a varied cast for features — including Katy B, Shy One, and alternative hip hop heavyweights Goya Gumbani and Jadasea.

Hauke has previously collaborated with the likes of jazz singer and guitarist Oscar Jerome, jazz pianist Joe Armon-Jones, and rapper Cecil B.
