Stylo G: New Signing, New Single 'Move Back'

'Move Back' is the brand new banger from lyrical badman, Stylo G and sees the London Don following up the success of 'Badd' and 'Soundbwoy' with another storming dance floor anthem.

The track's thumping bassline combines with a jubilant live horn section which adds a dash of old school reggae style to Stylo's modern dancehall fire.

The sound and lyrics of 'Move Back' pay tribute to some of reggae's finest - the legendary artists and soundsystems who continue to influence Stylo's sound.

It's been a big year for Stylo G. His breakthrough single 'Soundbwoy' peaked at number 18 in the UK chart and Stylo spent the summer performing to enthusiastic crowds at Glastobury, Leeds, Reading and Wireless festivals. He stole the show at Notting Hill Carnival when he joined Toddla T Sound and has toured extensively across mainland Europe and performed with Major Lazer on their recent tour.

Stylo G is a new addition to the Primary Talent roster with booking agent Craig D'Souza.

Mikill Pane: New Single 'Good Feeling' & UK Tour

'Good Feeling' is the brand new single from Mikill Pane, released 18th March on Mercury Records. It's a through-the-looking glass single that opens up the world of Mikill Pane. It's an incredibly accomplished, fresh, vibrant hook-laden single that mixes kitchen sink drama of parties and Facebook with student flats and shady landlords.

With nods to ska, reggae, hip-hop and more this fusion of styles, though done before, in Mikill Pane's hands feels incredibly new and fresh.
There's a real vibrancy, something that matches the crisp delivery of the lyrics as he paints vivid images of student life in the city.

Mikill Pane's forthcoming debut album will be the quintessential summer record, one that lights up rooms, clubs, and parties wherever played. He is an enormous new talent, charismatic, forthright and opinionated. It's sharp, witty, at ease with language the whole time, with razor-sharp couplets with universal sentiments.

Mikill Pane's debut album 'Blame Miss Barclay' is released later this year on Mercury Records.

Signed to Mercury at the end of 2012, last single 'Dirty Rider' picked up support at both Radio 1 and 1Xtra. He's already played to a packed field at Reading Festival and regularly sells out 500+ capacity venues.

East India Youth: Press For 'Total Strife Forever'

"'TOTAL STRIFE FOREVER' is an astonishingly bold and inventive record. It's no exaggeration to suggest that this is the first potentially great album of 2014" - Clash Magazine, 9/10

"A genuinely ambitious statement from intent from an artist who clearly has no qualms whatsoever about blurring genre boundaries." - Loud & Quiet, 8/10

"Hurtling between cerebral electronica, vulnerable pop and gonzoid techno, it locates a broken but still-beating heart within metallic machine music. East India Youth's debut is a triumph." - Mojo, 4/5, and Mojo Rising feature

"Doyle's dizzying arpeggios inspire a sense of awe. In synth-pop, his debut is as good as it gets." - Q Magazine, 4/5

"What really sets 'TOTAL STRIFE FOREVER' apart is Doyle's vocal ability. An impressively ambitious debut." - Record Collector, 4/5

"East India Youth's debut is abrasive, complicated and demanding, ambitious and absorbing, and still probably only a glimpse of what Doyle is capable of." - The Fly, 3.5/5

"A volume of brutally cold, industrial, electronic schizophrenia that's as bleak as you'd expect from the title. I love this record." - Vice, 10/10, Album of The Month

"A hugely self-assured debut from an artist who knows exactly what he's doing, confident enough to leap from out-and-out pop to icy ambience to pounding acid house to unsettling experimentation, marking Doyle out as a rare, idiosyncratic talent." - The Guardian, Breakthrough of 2014

"Rarely has so much anticipation been invested in a debut, but 'TOTAL STRIFE FOREVER' could be good enough to define the next year" - This is Fake DIY

"A richly impressive debut, which sounds like the great lost album that Brian Wilson, Eno and Bjork should have made together. A major new British talent is born ." - Uncut, 9/10
