Biografie
GotSome, aka Alex Homes and Adam Gorsky, are a UK production duo set to imminently explode onto the house scene. They are perhaps best known to date for the B.Traits and Annie-Mac-championed 'Bassline', soon to be released on the mighty Defected Records, along with remixes from Kenny Dope, Friend Within and Chocolate Puma.
'Bassline' may well become the defining record of their career to date, but it is by no means the only string to their creative bow. Two further EPs are due out later in the year (also on Defected), with the first release featuring heavyweight floor fillers 'On Point', and 'Don't Want You Back', and there are already plans for an album later down the line. "We want to get new singers and lyricists to perform with our music" say GotSome, "to take the same sort of concept as Basement Jaxx and The Chemical Brothers, but whereas they come from latin, funk, electro and classic house, we've taken that idea forward ten years and are exploring it again with the sounds we've been brought up on, like hip-hop, drum and bass and break beat, but with house and garage still influencing the sounds."
"We want to make music that we can put on a stage and people can party to" they continue, "but we want it to be accessible as well as progressive. We define success as making music that we love that is also popular; music that comes from our soul, but translates to all kinds of people around the world."
The duo certainly aren't shy of their potential: "Anything else is a bonus. That said, a headlining slot at Glastonbury with an epic live AV show someday would also be good!"
At the rate that GotSome are currently going, it may not be too long before that particular dream becomes a reality.
