about

From his early years on the music scene in Edinburgh, Theo Kottis has built a buzz as one of the UK’s most exciting DJs. He is also the curator of his own unique sound, crafted on his Beautiful Strangers series, and gained clout from star DJs the world over.

The Mirror EP is fronted by a euphoric party track inspired by Kottis’ lockdown yearning for “the kind of party where you don’t stop dancing’ - and crafted perfectly for this purpose. The raw energy of breaks and rave piano stabs is permeated by Busola’s pep talk, getting the listener and the dancer geared up for the summer of release after a year of restrictions. On the B Side, ‘Onda’ takes its name from the Spanish word for waves. This is a blissed out relaxation after the intensity of the A-Side, an ode to an Ibiza poolside which still maintains a strong groove. Playful pads pop out under sublime strings for an instantly nostalgic vibe.

Theo Kottis words on the release ”Earlier this year during peak winter lockdown, craving the kind of party where you don’t stop dancing, I took matters into my own hands, producing this new single ‘The Mirror’, featuring Busola - who is the life of the party - to bring euphoric sounds to my living room and now to yours.

The thought of the impending ‘Summer of Love’ got me through lockdown and I wanted to create something energetic and fun to mirror that excitement. I’d seen Little Gay Brother, the LGBTQ+ party and community perform at many festivals and knew their vibe would be an ideal source for this raw energy - I was introduced to Busola who provided the ultimate summer of self-love pep talk, something we all needed to get back out there post lockdown!

The second track is a nod to my summer escape to Ibiza where I played Pikes poolside and spent time in the sea and watching waves - ‘ondas’ in Spanish - to reset and relax.

The Mirror EP drops December 10th via Shall Not Fade.
