Ikonika is one of the most vital artists in UK electronic music. Emerging from the fertile grounds of London’s post-dubstep scene, they have carved out a singular space over two decades of boundary-pushing production and DJing. A long-time affiliate of the influential Hyperdub label, they’ve also released music on Night Slugs, Planet Mu, and Don’t Be Afraid (DBA). Their work spans grime, R&B, UK funky and techno—always marked by a signature sense of melody, rhythm, and emotional depth. Debuting in 2008 with the acclaimed single “Please” on Hyperdub, Ikonika quickly became a leading figure in the new wave of bass music innovators. Their debut album Contact, Love, Want, Have (2010) blended video game synths, garage rhythms, and glitchy textures into something wholly new, earning praise from critics and club-goers alike. Follow-up records like Aerotropolis (2013) & Distractions (2017) pushed even further into genre fusion, embracing pop, house, techno, R&B, and experimental electronics. In recent years, Ikonika has continued to evolve, releasing deeply personal and stylistically adventurous EPs that incorporate their own vocals and explore everything from amapiano to techno. Whether in the studio or behind the decks, Ikonika’s sound remains unmistakable—emotive, future-facing, and proudly London.
