It's always inspiring to watch our industry friends as they develop and continue to express their passions...

Leah Lost is starting the year in a great way as her 'Many Moves EP' with SV is released on Definition Audio. Not only that, but her track titled 'Dangerous' with Rokuro is now signed and upcoming on Sony BMG! Her voice is one that works with a lot of commercial and club styles, she is always working hard on new material with various producers with a big smile on her face.

DJ S.K.T, what can I say? The growth of his career is phenomenal and just shows how much hard work he puts in, that it's all now paying off. I doubt his phone ever stops buzzing! Recently sharing a video to supporters, he says "I always want to push the boundaries. That's the one thing I love about music - there's no rules ... I can do exactly what I want and no one can tell me that it's wrong." He has such a way of crafting and moulding sounds to give maximum impact on the dancefloor as well as bringing something new to your ears. Even with his rise in stardom, he is ever so genuinly humble and appreciative of it all.

Oggie entertained the festive shoppers last month with his incredibly seductive and soulful voice as his "normal" job involves singing. How very rare it is for singers and musicians to have a job that helps them get by that is actually creative. Even though he was selling, you could just see how grateful he was to be able to sing each day, even rocking out the cheesy crimbo songs with a great big grin. Speaking of the biz, his own music and the work with UK3 are doing brilliantly. The trio are on the lookout to work with great diverse producers and are enjoying doing live performances where they can really excel. There is no doubt that there is so much exceptional talent and good music all around, but what he rightly mentioned is that the general consesus is that, if you are an unknown name, people won't listen. So, you've got to also bring yourself to the spotlight and work with names who are recognised in order to propel your own name and identity, and then be able to do more of what you want. He ended the year, literally, by performing at KISSTORY'S NYE event where the crowd enjoyed his 'Follow Me' performance alongside DJ Swerve.
