Way back when in 2012,
Gravitas Recordings kicked off their first ever volume of the
Neurovation Charity Compilation. They teamed up with a great lineup of artists from all over the world, including
Gramatik,
Kraddy,
Knight Riderz,
Minnesota and
Starkey to name a few. All proceeds of this compilation release benefited
Charity:Water, bringing clean, safe drinking water to people in developing countries. After this initial team up and release, another relationship with the label began to blossom, with Australian producer,
Mr Bill.

In conjunction with Mr Bill, Gravitas Recordings ran a remix contest featuring his song Cheya, again to help raise money for Charity:Water. It was a beautiful thing, first seeing all the more well known artists coming together to support a cause, and then the outreach to the EDM community as a whole. After the contest ended, six talented producers were featured on the remix album. We followed the contest right
HERE on EGP, so you can check out some of our top picks for who would walk away winning their titles... and one such artist did indeed win the Grand Prize.
Haywyre (who caught him at
Lightning in a Bottle?!).
Not even 24 hours ago, a track posted on
Soundcloud caught our eye, a collaboration between Mr Bill and Haywyre titled Dress Codes. It feels like things are coming full circle, and another producer that deserves our attention is working together with a name that is getting around. The track is absolutely classy, fun, jazzy, and everything you need to move. Grab your slippers, smoking jacket and ottoman, this is going to be a good listening experience.
