For our fourth release on Leaders Of The New School, we are proud to present one of the most in-demand, passionate and versatile female DJs in the UK. Kate Lawler is a resident of legendary Manchester club Sankeys, and has played alongside heavyweights like Steve Angello, Nic Fanciulli, Eric Prydz and David Guetta. Her swift ascent to the top of the pile is testament to her love of house in all its forms? be it lush deep house, jacking tech, stripped-down techno or driving electro, she can adapt her style and cater for everyone - which is why clubbers in the UK and beyond just can?t get enough of her!

Following all the fevered speculation about what her DJ sets are like, Kate?s decided to take the leap into production to give the world a strapping slice of her sound! Her debut release is the ?Screw You EP? - a fearless, faultless 3-tracker that?s endured rigorous road-testing from both Mark Knight & Funkagenda. Title track ?Screw You? is an exhilarating, brawny workout that teams rugged glitchy beats with a dynamic rolling bassline. The track flexes and spirals into a frenzy and then strips down to one miniature pulse ? when it slams back in, watch your crowd ERUPT!

Second track ?20 Years On Acid? toughens the tone and takes us back, with burbling acid coiling its way between urgent drums and pads, building into a seething mass of sound that will delight fans of darker dancefloor fare. Last up, ?Water Baby? provides a glowing, gorgeous finish to the EP with washes of fluid, balmy synths that swell into a dreamy, intoxicating break? a sublime track!

A fine addition to our Leaders Of The New School series and a stunning debut from Kate Lawler, this is a truly essential release.
