Grove - Sound of the Underground + GREED singles 

We're really excited to introduce you to our new singles imprint GREED - part of the growing, ever greedy GREED empire.

The first release is by Grove, with an absolutely huge version of Girls Aloud's pop classic 'Sound of the Underground'. The title of the B-side - also a cover - will be revealed in good time, but we can tell you right now it's really great.

Doubling down on the D’n’B stylings of the original and adding a bashment twist, Grove moves the song into a propulsive new territory. The bass hits that extra bit harder, the lyrics given an extra sense of bite and bounce with Grove’s winding delivery. The song was a permanent fixture in the acclaimed artists festival sets including Glastonbury, Reading & Leeds, Boomtown and many more.

“I whipped up this evil Bristol-soaked, bashment-heavy edition cover while touring, and have been playing it out at festivals throughout Europe, inspiring big queer mosh pits and walls of death.”

You can buy it here.
