Movada, the emerging DJ/Producer from Leeds, has released a bassline-laden single that’s quickly gaining traction on TikTok and climbing various SoundCloud editorial charts.
Known for his work with the UK indie electronic label, Perfect Havoc, Movada is captivating listeners with his vibrant dance tracks, artfully merging nostalgic 90s and early 2000s beats with contemporary club sounds.
His latest release, the garage-influenced track ‘The Queen’, debuted on August 23rd and is already making an impact on SoundCloud while becoming a sensation on TikTok. The track steadily ascends SoundCloud’s New & Hot Charts, hitting #20 and #24 in the Pop category, signaling early potential for a breakout hit.
Following previous tracks such as ‘Make U Hot’ (feat. Jae Depz), ‘Love you Better’ (feat. Dáhda) with Sluggy Beatz and K.A.D., and ‘Sober’ (La Da Dee) featuring fellow Perfect Havoc artist Stephani B, ‘The Queen’ showcases everything fans love about Movada’s signature sound.
Right from the start, the track is imbued with a nostalgic charm, featuring chunky, up-tempo 2-step rhythms and a powerful bassline that set the stage for a catchy vocal hook and lively melodic elements, culminating in an infectious contemporary dance anthem.
Adding to its popularity, ‘The Queen’ has driven over 143 user-generated creations on TikTok, racking up more than 3 million views, further solidifying its status as a rising star.
Movada’s evolution from creating soundtracks for EA Games to generating buzz with his original productions has not gone unnoticed, garnering him considerable attention, including over 30 plays on BBC Radio 1.
Highlight tracks from his discography include his tech house remix of Akon’s 2005 classic ‘Bananza (Belly Dancer)’, which has attracted 27 million views on TikTok, and ‘Push It’ released on Perfect Havoc, that received 13 consecutive airings on BBC Radio 1.
His compositions have also graced Love Island UK, and he has collaborated with talents such as Matoma, PS1, Sigala, and Becky Hill. Anticipate upcoming collaborations with RITON, ESSEL, and Craig Gorman this year.
Celebrating its ninth year, Perfect Havoc is a leading name in crossover dance music, boasting over 10 billion global streams, six UK Top 20 singles, and an impressive collection of platinum, gold, and silver awards.
As the year unfolds, the label has exciting new releases planned from artists like Stephani B, Alfie Cridland, and Scott Forshaw, each promising to bring even greater sound and energy to the scene.
