In a recent social media post, the Manchester-based producer and DJ said: “I’ll be launching a huge various artist LP to raise money for health supplies for innocent families and children who have had no say in the ongoing war in Palestine.”

He did not reveal what organisations would receive the financial aid, but said 100% of donations would be going to help at-risk families.

Early confirmed artists include K Motionz, Bru-C and Crossy.

Earlier this year, drum 'n' bass collective Stand Together also pulled together a number of artists for a 23-track LP to raise money to collectively tackle racism in the music industry.
