The Busy Twist
Busy Twist is one of the leading lights of the new global dance underground, effortlessly hotwiring vibrant sounds from across the continents and teasing them into thrilling new shapes. His upfront rhythmic workouts join the dots between Afro, Latin and UK bass. A fun, fresh and sophisticated fusion that has taken him to play everywhere from Glastonbury to Nyege Nyege in Uganda, to the Barranquilla carnival on the Colombian coast, as well as releasing music on international labels like Jamz Supernova’s Future Bounce, Sony Colombia and Soundway Records. The DJ and producer, otherwise known as Ollie Williams, has spent over a decade immersed in emerging musical scenes from around the world and his recent productions are fast-establishing him as an in-demand force in the studio: see the nocturnal afro-house of London-based artist Alewya’s breakthrough single ‘Sweating’ or his recent carnival track, ‘Romantica Champeta’, a dayglo carnival anthem with national treasures Bomba Estéreo and Kevin Flores, which was a runaway smash in Colombia this year. Now one of the newest signings at Because London Records, Ollie continues to build the bridge between his travels and the UK capital, where he grew up, with an EP coming on the label soon. “My music has always been about building friendships and real connections,” says Ollie. “ All the artists I collaborate with are not just people I go to work with, they're people I want to share food with and share stories of life and experience.”
