Introducing; Dubbel Shot

One of the most amazing things for me within this world is the fact that there is always going to be someone who is younger and better than you at something while people see this as a realisation that some people are just born with more talent, I take it as an inspiration to step up my game.

 ----------------------------------------

Johnny "Dubbel Shot" Keating is a 16 year old bass head from South East London who is also the front man of indie-punk band The Provokers who came to my attention through mutual friends around 2 years ago with the track Lonely.

Lonely by Dubbel Shot (yes that is him on guitar!)

 ----------------------------------------
From hearing this track I had to get in touch with him to give encouragement to carry on writing unique, atmospheric and organic music which I feel is lacking from today's music.

So a few months pass and I get a AIM pop-up icon saying "dubbel shot wants to send you a file" I rush to click accept and this is how I knew, I will do everything I can to push his music. The track he sent was the master piece that is, You Know I Know.

You Know I Know by Dubbel Shot

With grooving drums, evolving synth stabs and brilliant perc programming, a year later this track STILL gets played out every time I step up in the club, the song is timeless!

Forget by Dubbel Shot

As you can see, Dubbel Shot is a young, talented diverse producer who is making music which needs more attention which was why he was my #1 to featuring in my introducing series.

Show this guy some support and any labels reading, every track ive posted is unsigned :P.

  2. Absolutely beautiful, this guy has an amazing gift. Can't wait to see what he has in store for the future if he's already at this level at 16.
