W Bali presents Sunset Session feat. GotSome

Gotsome

27 MAR 2016 | GotSome are a UK duo who have been on an upward trajectory since their arrival on the international circuit in 2014. In an amazingly short space of time, they have clocked up a series of achievements and career highlights that place them one step ahead of most of their peers and have assured their position as leaders of a new generation of talented British producers.

Adam Gorsky is GotSome’s DJ extraordinaire, a man who can turn his hand to spinning anything from UK garage to dancehall and house with style and panache. The other half of the duo is Alex Holmes, a studio hound with a deep knowledge of engineering and sonic manipulation, and the ability to refine sound to a professional standard, bringing the pair a nomination in the 2015 Bass Music Awards Best Producers category. Together they have formed an untouchable alliance, which has led to a slew of bass-heavy, dance floor destroyers and Among them is ‘Bassline’, championed by Radio 1’s B.Traits and Annie Mac and signed to Defected Records with a huge package of remixes from house legend Kenny Dope, Friend Within, Chus + Ceballos and Chocolate Puma. The track was also re-released via Ministry Of Sound/Hed Kandi in Australia and New Zealand, attracting a whole new audience in the southern hemisphere in the process.

More recently they collaborated with the ‘Godfather of grime’ Wiley to produce ‘Vibe Out’, which was signed to Chase & Status’ inimitable label MTA Records. They have also dropped a succession of equally lauded, bombastic productions including; ‘If You Wanna’ (with Tazer), ‘Move It Back’ (with AC Slater) and ‘Run Di Dance’, which was recorded with Jus Now at Red Bull Studios in London. Red Bull have given the duo huge support since they exploded onto the scene, with appearances at their 5th birthday party together with a specially commissioned mix and studio sessions. The duo have also lent their talents to a plethora of remixes, injecting some bass weight into official reworks for the likes of Basement Jaxx, Róisín Murphy, Junior Jack, FCL, Moko, Sure Thing and Jax Jones with more to come.

Gig-wise, they have been inundated with requests from around the globe, keeping most of the early tours to UK and EU territories, the jewel in the crown so far being a prestigious Together residency at Amnesia in Ibiza, where they played all summer long at the club’s event. The world famous Cafe Mambos provided the setting for the warm up to these monumental shows where GotSome could be found easing the Ibiza crowds into their nights. Outside of Ibiza they have appeared at Glastonbury and Bestival (UK), SW4 and Fabric (London), Warehouse Project (Manchester), Arcadia and Motion (Bristol), Hideout (Croatia), Snowbombing (Austria), AMP Lost and Found (Malta), Superheroes (Dubai) and many more.
