Badger is possibly one of the fastest rising Electronic artists in UK Dance Music. His engaging presence in the viral landscape of TikTok and Instagram has become hard to ignore, growing his follower base twenty-fold over the past 12 months. As a producer and DJ specializing in UK Garage, Bass House, and Jungle, Badger’s unique musical approach and an ability to harness the power of nostalgia has built him a highly engaged audience at a rapid rate.
 
His live shows are a gleeful adventure through sound. On stage, he acts as the joyride tour guide, whipping his crowd through the backstreets of dance music and masterfully weaving between the old, the new, the undiscovered, and the completely unexpected.
 
Badger was first co-signed by AC Slater in 2022, which led to him releasing several tracks on AC’s Night Bass label. He’s now one of the most sought-after underground DJs, with his single Backstrap spending a week at no.1 on Beatport in 2023. In January 2024, he received major support from DSPs for his latest release “Don’t Leave” with Drinks On Me, which garnered 100k streams in 4 weeks and was included in 7 editorial playlists, including as the front cover for UK Bass Music. His edit of the timeless classic “These Words” by Natasha Beddingfield has had a major viral moment, gaining 200k streams online in the first 4 weeks. After being officially released in April 2024, the track racked up 6.5 million streams in the first 10 days and made it inside the UK Top 40.
