ABOUT CALYX:
For 25 years, Calyx has forged an unprecedented path at the forefront of Drum and Bass. In his first decade as a solo artist, he had already amassed an astounding back-catalogue spanning most of the genre’s seminal labels.
After teaming up with TeeBee to form a duo in 2007, the pair reached new heights with chart-topping singles and their acclaimed LPs: Anatomy, All Or Nothing, 1X1 and Plates.
After winning numerous awards including Best Producer, Best Single, Best Album & Best Video; a near-constant run of radio plays led to the duo being asked to do a BBC Essential Mix – a true hall-of-fame moment for any artist in any genre. Their mix was then voted as one of the five nominees for Essential Mix of the Year.
As Calyx reached the quarter-century mark in his DnB career, he opened a new chapter by returning to his roots as a solo artist. His first release on Critical Music had an enormous impact on the DnB scene: Tempest & You Want It All topped Beatport and streaming charts after they had become mainstays in headliners’ sets across the DnB spectrum. His second release Pull Up & Feel The Sway followed suit and a summer packed with festival bookings lay ahead. His third release Cobra (ft Logan) & Riddim garnered widespread acclaim, press & radio exposure and shot to the number 1 spot on Beatport in an incredible 3 days. 2024 witnessed new heights for Calyx with more chart-topping releases: House Breaker / Don’t Say Nothing, Out & In (ft Chimpo) / In My Dark Place, Tempest VIP and Never Alone all made a huge impact worldwide.
The turn of the year saw 3 huge Calyx remixes taking the scene by storm – firstly a remix of the Mefjus classic Surrounded, which was quickly followed by an anthemic remix of Skantia’s 2Drill. The Calyx remix of Break’s Don’t You Ever Stop is currently one of the hottest dubs in DnB ahead of its summer release. Following on from the trio of monster remixes, Calyx has a stacked diary of club and festival shows whilst a mountain of new dubs are scheduled for release in the months ahead – no doubt 2025 is set to be yet another milestone year both for Calyx and Drum and Bass!
