Based at The Dairy Studios in Brixton, Hugh’s creative approach has established him as one of the most exciting young producers and writers in the UK today.

His work with Will has amassed over 17 million streams on Spotify, three BBC Radio 1 playlists and an Annie Mac record of the week. Lead tracks from the EPs topped the Hype Machine charts three times, with ‘Message’ topping Spotify’s Global Viral chart.
