RICHY AHMED

Eight years on from his debut, Richy Ahmed returns to headline Mixology at UNDER FEST!

A graduate of many summers spent in Ibiza as a raver and music fan and having been immersed in electronic music culture since his teens, Richy went on to become head of A&R for Jamie Jones’ Hot Creations and one of the original residents of Paradise at DC10. 

Richy has toured the world playing some of the biggest and most influential clubs and festivals including: Panorama Bar, Space Miami, Glastonbury and Tomorrowland. 

ALISHA

Just over 8 years ago, ALISHA played her very first gig at Mixology. Fast-forward to today and Alisha’s DJ career has been ascending at a stratospheric rate with a residency at WHP, debut at Creamfields and Jamie Jones’ Paradise at Amnesia. A regular on the BPM bills, Elrow, Glastonbury, Music On, Parklife and an unforgettable back-to-back with East End

Dubs at his Eastenderz party in London. 

Expect a set delivering high-octane energy with a sound that underpins deep rumbling low-end basslines, driving grooves and stripped back percussion from the Peterborough-superstar-native. 

MAUR

Returning to Mixology once more is one of dance music’s hottest properties and break out acts of 2022. We welcome back Dylan May and Mixology Resident Dan Clare AKA MAUR! With a string of top 5 Beatport releases and daytime Radio 1 airplay on both ‘Power’ with Solardo and their ‘Salvation’ collaboration with Goodboys, MAUR have been soundtracking your summer!

MURPHY’S LAW

With releases on highly respected labels including: Sola Nauts, Roush, Resonance, Libero, Under No Illusion, Low:Res & many more, the pair have already achieved three #1 releases in the beatport charts. The duos work in the studio has led to early support from some of their biggest musical influences such as: Marco Carola, Patrick Topping, Jamie Jones, Nic Fanciulli and Joris Voorn.

ADR

Returning to UNDER we welcome back Peterborough’s Anthony Roofe better known under the moniker ADR!

Having built a reputation for his originality and captivating acid infused productions, ADR passed a USB of his demo to BBC Radio 1’s Annie Mac at just 18-years old. That resulted in Annie opening her Friday night show with his unreleased track ‘Acid Riot’.  Since then ADR has reached the summit of the Beatport charts and landed his first number one EP with ‘Back to Dance’ on Steve Lawler’s imprint VIVa Music. Recently he has gone on to releasing via East End Dubs ‘EastEnderz’ label and Archie Hamilton’s ‘Micro Hertz’. 

MICAH BAXTER

Returning to Mixology and a debut appearance at UNDER we welcome back another Peterboroughian making waves, Micah Baxter!

Amassing over 2.7 million listeners per month and in-excess of 100 million streams; Vibe Chemistry will be showcasing his arsenal of tunes at UNDER FEST beneath the bassiest motorway in the UK!

CHARLIE TEE (MC SAVVY B)

In a world obsessed with stereotypes and genre pigeonholing, Charlie Tee continues to carve out her own lane representing a versatile array of sounds, both on-air and in her DJ sets. Newly crowned as the first permanent female host of BBC Radio 1’s Drum & Bass show, Charlie Tee’s expansive knowledge of electronic dance music, broadcasting and DJing experience (spanning 10 years), make her a truly unique act.

DISRUPTA

Undoubtedly one of the most exciting DJ / Producers in the drum & bass genre, Disrupta has been quick to establish his own unique and versatile sound. 

With chart topping music on seminal imprints such as Hospital Records, V Recordings and Born on Road, he is gaining boundless recognition for his work from some of the biggest artists in the scene.

This has been recognised with ‘Best Breakthrough DJ’ at the Drum & Bass Awards in 2021. 

Disrupta is fast becoming a headline act with a long career ahead of him both on stage and in the studio.

EMILY MAKIS

With a voice described as ‘heavenly’ and ‘enthralling’ by DJ Mag, Emily Makis’ emotive vocals can be heard on tracks from the freshest talent in Electronic music.

The last year has proven fruitful for the self-confessed studio gremlin, with her most recent feature on K Motionz ‘High Note’ hitting number 1 in the Beatport Drum and Bass Top 100.

Emily’s dark, perceptual writings have amassed over 6 million streams with Monrroe’s ‘Never Too Old’, featured in the iconic ‘15 Years of Shogun Audio’ album alongside Friction and Technimatic. With continuous support and play from BBC Radio 1 and 1 Extra, Emily is a must-see-act performing at UNDER FEST!

ISSEY CROSS

Growing-up in Kent, with her hair dyed half pink, half green like Harley Quinn’s alt-pop alter ego, and hands dripping with chunky rings and jewellery, 21-year-old Issey Cross knows how much music can change your whole attitude, and now she’s aiming to bring a legion of young women along with her too.

Breakthru hit ‘Used To This’ with legendary DnB producer Wilkinson spent 14 weeks in the UK OCC Top 40 and 12 weeks on BBC Radio 1 Playlist. There’s so much more to come in 2023!
