Singled out for his gritty style, Eli Brown’s productions are renowned for their singlary sinister approach, creating twisted dancefloor hits packed with vibrant club-ready energy. Self-taught in both his skills behind the turntable and his powerful production prowess, Eli’s route to stardom was fast-tracked when Skream signed his ‘Can You Feel It/Acid Test’ EP to his ‘Of Unsound Mind’ label.
This debut soon led to his follow up EP, ‘Got The Power/Tech This Out’ in 2017, as well as a collaboration with Skream himself on ‘Lagos’. His 2017 track ‘Sumatra’ - released on Toolroom – proved to be one of the biggest selling tracks of the year, with BBC Radio 1 tastemakers Annie Mac and Monki offering the Brit continued support on the airwaves.
Adding the likes of Green Velvet’s Relief Records, Solardo’s Sola and elrow to his ever-expanding accomplishment list, 2018 saw Eli Brown balance a stacked release schedule with a busy tour diary. He made his first appearance at Miami Music Week, toured to South America including two separate runs in Ecuador & Brazil and also made his debut at iconic London club fabric (a personal highlight for the Bristolian).
Jump forward to 2019 and it’s clear that Eli Brown is showing no signs of slowing down. The UK producer has been on a prolific streak with anthems like ‘Brazil’ (Repopulate Mars), ‘Inside My Head’ (Black Book Records) ‘Our Love’ (Truesoul) and ‘BS48’ (Big Beat) causing damage on the international club circuit. Not to mention debut releases for Ultra Records and Alan Fitzpatrick’s We Are The Brave and Defected. Eli Brown’s recent hit collaboration with Solardo, ‘XTC’, is currently hitting the dizzy heights of daytime Radio 1 after becoming Annie Mac’s ‘Hottest Record In The World’ - Eli Brown’s second hottest record in less than six months!
As the summer of 2019 draws to a close, Eli Brown steps onto the global stage to announce his first world tour, Come Together World Tour, off the back of his Come Together EP (We Are The Brave). Spanning over 3 months, the Come Together World Tour will see Eli Brown reach every corner of the globe, including debut performances in Singapore and Japan as well as highly anticipated returns to Eli Brown strong-holds such as USA, Canada, Brazil & Ibiza.
A raw and caustic talent, Eli Brown continues to cement his reputation as one of dance music’s most innovative and forward-thinking DJ & producers heading into 2019 and beyond.
