Following the successful launch of his Gossip label earlier this year, DNB Arena and Drum & Bass Award winner Bou invites esteemed producer High Contrast to his imprint for the ultimate collab single ‘Don’t Need You’.

Set to continue the momentum of Bou’s label launch, the new single follows the first two Gossip releases Talk To Me and Cous Cous alongside Inja which both secured Beatport no.1 spots. After meeting for the first time at Let It Roll, the stars aligned for a legendary High Contrast and Bou collab with their sounds moulding a fresh sonic landscape only possible between this unique pairing:

“Collaborating with Lincoln was completely different from working with any other artist before, we work so differently but it somehow blended really nicely, we tried to make a track that was going to hit in the raves and work just as well listening at home and I think we achieved that, this was a really fun collab to work on!” – BOU

“Bou and I have very different styles but I felt a real connection with his tunes. They really stand out from the pack and I thought if we got in the studio together we could come up with something interesting. The resulting track is a real fusion of our sounds, with the crisp minimalism of his drums and haunting bass sounds mixed with my melancholy melodies and vocal cut-ups. It’s a tune I don’t think either of us would have made without the other artist and hopefully brings the best of both our worlds.” – HIGH CONTRAST

Both esteemed artists in their own right, Bou has been amassing huge support with his track Streetside alongside Bru-c that landed over 17M streams whilst remixing Shy FX, Sub Focus, DJ Fresh and more.

His show schedule has also kicked off a similar trajectory this year, playing to packed crowd at Printworks, Drumsheds, The Warehouse Project and others. Elsewhere, his compilation DNB 4 Peace ft. the likes of Chimpo, Benny L, Foreign Beggars, Lenzman, Mollie Collins, Turno and more raised over 30K for those affected by the ongoing conflicts in Palestine, with 100% of donations going to at-risk families.

Needing little introduction, Grammy nominated producer High Contrast has landed a plethora of dance anthems across numerous years including his most recent critically acclaimed album Notes From The Underground.

With an ability to stay true to his roots whilst simultaneously able to reach wider audiences, he remains a true expert of his craft and icon on the D&B and jungle scene. Two years in the making, Bou and High Contrast now get set to unleash ‘Don’t Need You’ on dance floors and airwaves alike, marking one of their most ambitious and promising tracks yet.
