Hot Natured feat. Anabel Englund
Reverse Skydiving

Hot Creations / FFRR / Warners

WE SAY

Anyone doubting that Hot Natured are one of the most exciting prospects in electronic music right now would do well to check out one of their two headline shows at Brixton Academy this weekend, the first dance act since Leftfield to make their live debut there. This is just the beginning of a phenomenal live plot for acclaimed producers and DJ's Jamie Jones, Lee Foss, Ali Love and Luca C; the group will headline the Sonic supertent at Glastonbury's Silver Haze arena, with further festival appearances at Parklife, Sonar, T in the Park and Bestival, and somewhere in there they find time to make their US debut at New York's 3000-capacity Terminal 5. Featuring vocals from Anabel Englund, this addictive third single Reverse Skydiving is the band's first release since signing to Pete Tong's FFRR label, with solid radio support so far from Kiss, Ministry and Radio 1 (15 plays to date including Zane Lowe, Pete Tong and Rob Da Bank, as well as a first daytime play last week from Annie Mac). This is an act with the pedigree and personality to be leading lights in EDM and beyond. Video.

London gig: April 12 and April 13 - Brixton Academy, SW9
