We had the pleasure of interviewing Pocket over Zoom video!

After much fanfare for his recent singles, the rising star of the electronic scene, Edinburgh-raised Pocket, recently released his debut Helix Records EP, ‘Love DIsc.’

The EP features the single, “Evergreen (ft. kloe),” which is available to stream now. The track is built around a joyful and radiant house instrumental that balances perfectly with kloe’s heartfelt lyrics and stunning vocal delivery.

“‘Evergreen’ was a song that I started with the idea that its simplicity is its strength. Lots of texture and all based around the piano part. KLOE and I had a chat about our lives and everything we were experiencing, and the song became a love letter to being with someone long distance. The unapologetic lyrics and feel is to me what makes it such a standout. In the climate of house music and dance music in the UK, it’s very easy to hold yourself back from making something sweet and warm with the fear of not fitting the mold, and I’m happy with taking the chance to make that happen,” Pocket says.

Diversity is the name of the game when it comes to Pocket’s approach to music and the EP offers a kaleidoscope of ranges and styles. Emblematic of Pocket’s fresh sound, “U (ft. BRONZE AVERY)” is the perfect combination of pop, house, and UK garage. Pocket’s light and airy instrumental melds perfectly with BRONZE AVERY’s powerful-yet-soothing vocals. Using curiously satisfying vocal chops, and minimal but intricate production, ‘Crying at Supermac’s’ shows off a sound reminiscent of classic Burial. Pocket’s unique style pierces through the saturated scene, showcasing a unique and excitable new project for fans.

It’s been an incredible start to Pocket’s career - he was named one of the top 25 artists to watch in 2022 by Mixmag (his song 'Heartbreak Engineering' was also named amongst ‘Best Tracks of the Year April 2022’); received playlist support from Flume, DJ Seinfeld, and Salute, released a remix for Charli XCX and performed alongside Porter Robinson and Fred Again and has been included in tastemaker playlists POLLEN and Altar. Pocket’s recent release, ‘U (ft BRONZE AVERY), featured in Paper Magazine in addition to receiving support from a who’s who of DJs including Armin Van Buuren, The Magician, Dillon Francis, Joris Voorn, Calvin Harris, MK, Icarus, Oliver Heldens, Martin Garrix, Kryder, Sam Divine, Don Diablo, Carl Craig, Gabriel & Dresden / Dave, and PS1, among others.
