This is a bit of a passion project for me. I think most people know I’m a not-so-secret garage fan and I feel there’s definitely a gap within the Defected ecosystem. I’ve signed some amazing records for it already from super-talented artists, the first being BVNQUET who I think has huge potential. The time is right for us to make some Bad Decisions ourselves.

I am super excited to sign my debut EP to such a culturally significant record label - and having the first release on their new UKG imprint, Bad Decisions, is a huge honour. The project has taken a year to make, I’ve whittled down loads of demos to the best few. I ended up remixing the tracks several times, and I’ve found the best version of each – it feels great to finally get these tracks out into the world! The UK Garage scene feels as strong as ever right now, which is fantastic to see. So as a long-time fan of the Defected brand, this feels like a fitting time to launch the label.
