Firmly back in the production hot seat, British DJ & Production duo, The Sharp Boys, announce a series of Spring releases on their new Sharp Digital Recordings label with the first release ‘Radar’ racking up solid support from Radio 1’s Danny Howard, Eats Everything, Majestic and BK. Their second track of the year ‘The Zapper’ numbers DJ support from Jamie Jones, Nicole Moudaber, Horsemeat Disco and Terry Farley and a third single, ‘Playing Games’, is set for release in March.

Known for their bumping house style, the Sharp Boys have toughened things up and have evolved their sound into a driving, percussive, energetic groove with tech influences. Reviving their musical mojo has never felt better and Steven Sharp comments “George’s energy for our new music has fired up both of our creative spirits. It’s really humbling to receive such a positive response so far!”.
