DJ S.K.T
Origin: None
DJ S.K.T is a fast rising star in the UK’s music scene. A producer, DJ, and label manager, the Londoner specializes in all forms of dance music – from deep & soulful house, garage & experimental bass, all tied together with a common thread of working a dance floor. He can count fans and supporters including Annie Mac, Pete Tong, Danny Howard, Mistajam, DJ Target, MK, Roger Sanchez, Amine Edge & Dance and actor Idris Elba.
Coming into his own at the tail end 2013 with remixes of Miguel’s “Adorn” & Somore’s “I Refuse”, 2014 saw him produce the underground anthem ‘Right Before My Eyes’ for Little Nikki on Sony/Deconstruction which gained him a top 40 in the UK national singles chart. His remix of “Nightcrawlers – Push The Feeling On” was signed to Ministry Of Sound after entering the UK singles chart at No. 60 after being released on a compilation in summer 2014.
DJ S.K.T has also been busy producing a raft of show stealing remixes for the likes of Oliver Heldens (‘Gecko’), Wilkinson (‘Dirty Love’) and Becky Hill (‘Caution To The Wind’), Clean Bandit & Jess Glynne (‘Real Love’) and recent UK No 1 Philip George’s ‘Wish You Were Mine’.
His tracks are a must have for any self respecting DJ. Currently generating over 50,000 plays a week on Soundcloud.
A much in demand DJ, S.K.T has played extensively across the UK and in Europe this year and appeared on line ups with tastemakers including Hannah Wants, Todd Terry, Zinc, Cause & Affect, DJ Fresh, Gorgon City, MK, Amine Edge, MAW and more. He has delivered guest mixes for Kiss FM UK, Capital Xtra, Rinse FM and was resident DJ on BBC 1Xtra Talent’s UKG show in March 2014 and was one of Mistajam’s 60 Minute Mix DJs on BBC 1Xtra, charged with delivering 2 mixes per month on this primetime show.
His most current releases are ‘Take Me Away’, which after initially being signed to Defected/Azuli was snapped up for major release by Atlantic Records after a fierce bidding war. The track is shaping up to be one of THE summer 2015 anthems and ‘Dirty EP’ on Defected, which is getting support from tastemakers including Hannah Wants, Sonny Fedora, Tensnake, Pete Tong and B Traits.
Having just inked a publishing deal with BMG/Defected and joined Kiss FM UK for one of their flagship House shows in January 2016, S.K.T’s star continues to rise.
