BBC Radio 1 DJ Danny Howard Unveils New Kydus Release on Nothing Else Matters Label

BBC Radio 1 host Danny Howard has unveiled a brand new release from Liverpool-born DJ Kydus on his Nothing Else Matters label.

Set for official release on 25th August, ‘Markeeta’s Way’ follows Kydus’ highly acclaimed two track ‘Free Spirit EP’ which received support from the likes of Carl Cox, Hot Since 82, Nic Fanciulli, and Skream. His recent release, ‘First Contact’ was awarded the honour of Pete Tong’s ‘essential new tune.’

Using a rumbling bass line to interject real vigour into the production, ‘Markeeta’s Way’ features a clever synth-based breakdown which gives the track an upbeat feel, yet remains mysteriously brooding in areas.

The release marks another big moment in 2017 for Kydus, who has so far played events at Eden Ibiza’s opening party and ‘Do Not Sleep’ at London’s iconic Ministry of Sound club. In October, the British producer will play at Manchester’s Warehouse Project as part of ‘Yousef Presents Circus’ with ‘Markeeta’s Way’ marking a strong debut on Danny Howard’s imprint.

On the road as a touring DJ, Danny Howard has clocked up a succession of career-defining gigs, including appearances at EDC Las Vegas, Global Gathering, Gatecrasher, Ministry of Sound, Creamfields  and tours in America taking on clubs like Pacha NYC, Marquee in Las Vegas and Spinnin’ and Perfecto parties in Miami.

His Nothing Else Matters label, signed to Ministry of Sound, was launched in 2015, giving opportunities to highly promising up-and-coming talents from the world of dance music,  with 99 Souls’ Platinum-selling ‘The Girl Is Mine’ becoming the first ever track released on the label, amassing over 80 million Spotify plays and scoring a #5 in the UK Singles Charts in the process.

Danny said about the label: “Everyday I’m discovering new tracks and extremely talented artists. Aside from supporting them on air and on the dancefloor, I’ve always wanted a way in which I can help even more people hear these incredible sounds.”

Danny Howard also hosts a weekly 'Nothing Else Matters' podcast, with his weekly BBC Radio 1 show now attracting close to 2m listeners every Saturday.
