Ever since Andy C played the, then, mysterious Beatles Bootleg, everybody knows the name Urbandawn. His anthem ‘Come Together’ dominated 2019 and went on to win the Drum & Bass Arena Award for ‘Best Track’ that same year. The following year saw Urbandawn collaborating with some of the biggest names in Electronic Music like Zeds Dead and Netsky.


Originally trained in classical and Brazilian popular music playing guitar, bass and drums as well as graduating in Audio Engineering from IAV – it’s clear Urbandawn has a natural aptitude for music.


Urbandawn’s influences are a three-pronged affair, his father was responsible for solidifying his relationship with Brazilian music and culture. Artists like Tim Maia and Clara Nunes frequently filled his childhood home, although when his mother had control of the hi-fi Urbandawn would be submerged in a sea of classical music by Mozart, Bach and Mingus. His older brother afforded him an entirely new musical direction in the way of rock and metal, partially heavy Scandinavian bands like ‘Soilwork’ amalgamating in a rich and diverse sonic tapestry in Urbandawn's productions.


Highly regarded amongst peers, Urbandawn is continually supported by the drum & bass elite, and the wider electronic music community namely Skrillex, What So Not, Downlink, NGHTMRE, Noisia, MistaJam, A-Track, Pendulum and many more.
