His single 'Sumatra', released on Toolroom in late 2017, was one of the biggest selling tracks of the year. Collaborations followed rapidly with such august house makers as Repopuate Mars, Green Velvet, Solardo and elrow taking him through 2017 and 2018. 2019 saw the release of singles and EPs including the 'Our Love' EP with Will Clarke; a hook-up with Sonny Fodera on 'Hurt Me'.
