FULL LINE-UP:
🔥 BKLAVA
Rising DJ & vocalist BKLAVA makes “non-stop bops and flava” you can’t help but groove to. With a blend of UKG, house and dancefloor-ready sensibilities submerged in more poppish nuance, she has already proved herself as one to watch in the UK dance music scene. Since signing to Ministry of Sound last year, BKLAVA released her self-titled debut EP in October as well as new track ‘Fired Up’ alongside ABSOLUTE which came out this month. Her music touches on everything from mental health to heartbreak, IRL encounters to wider societal issues.
🔥 NOKIA MANSION
Brighton trap trio Nokia Mansion are a sobering concoction of introspective city kid dreams and gritty UK attitude. With a mixture of catchy melodic understanding from Sly Fieri and effortlessly articulate vocal clarity and production in the form of Badrrr and Hxrlxy, they are ones to keep an eye on in 2021.
🔥 KianVsLife
Kian’s sensual vocals glide over various funky bass lines while telling relatable tales. He combines bedroom pop, hip hop, R&B and soul making himself one of the most unique artists in the city.
🔥 Kymara
Brighton-based Dutch singer Kymara has been cooking up some soulful vibes to bless our 2021 with. A must see live performer with fiery flavour and poignant delivery.
🔥 Priss Nash
Brighton-based spoken word artist and poet, Priss Nash, describes herself as ‘uncensored, unfiltered and unapologetic’. Her powerful live performances are not one to miss.
🔥 Henna
As a DJ, beat-maker & radio host, Henna focuses on hip hop, R&B, jazz & neo soul accentuated with an unmistakable soft spot for the ‘90s. These influences have grown to form the impressive spectrum of music she loves and produces today.
🔥 Platform B Presenters
Jordi Carter, Elsa Monteith and Erin James from our next gen Breakfast Show - The Rising.
