Title: Rising Star on the Horizon: Get to Know Conducta, the Dance/Electronic Maestro
Conducta, whose real name is George Kwabena Wilson, is much more than meets the eye. This young UK-based artist represents both, a breath of fresh air in the Dance/Electronic scene and an insurgent renaissance of the 2-Step UK Garage genre. Often lovingly referred to as the 'Prince of UKG', Conducta has swiftly become the go-to name when considering the resurgence of this particular sound.
Born and raised in Bristol, the vibrant hub of music and arts, Conducta was exposed to an eclectic plethora of musical influences growing up. Inspired by names such as MJ Cole, Wookie, and Artful Dodger, he was drawn towards the UK Garage genre from an early age. However, it wasn't until he moved to London for his university studies that his musical aspirations truly took flight. Here, the young artist got the chance to fully immerse himself in the music scene, actively DJing around the city, and networking with the local music enthusiasts.
Driven by dedication and creative ambition, Conducta started to produce his music. His unique infusion of soulful melodies, rhythmically syncopated 2-step beats combined with crisp, modern production has sparked a colorful revival of the UK Garage sound. His high-momentum tracks and vibrant live performances whisk listeners back to the 90s and early 2000s rave parties, while channelling a fresh and dynamic spin that rings true to the times we live in.
After a slew of independently released tracks like "Come & Go" and "Spend the Night", Conducta's breakthrough came in 2016 with a remix of Shanks & Bigfoot's "Sweet Like Chocolate", which garnered more than a million streams online. He showed his prowess once again with his dynamic debut album ‘Kiwi Kuts’, a mixtape-style collection of 22 tracks that established him as the true tour-de-force in the UK Dance/Electronic scene.
Things spiralled upwards fast for Conducta. Recently, he collaborated with Grammy-nominated artist Mabel on the remix of "Don't Call Me Up", further solidifying his position in the industry. He also launched his record label, Kiwi Rekords, aiming to offer a platform to upcoming talent resonating with the same Garage notes.
Moreover, Conducta’s work as a producer extends beyond crafting dance floor anthems. He has created critically acclaimed remixes for various artists including AlunaGeorge, MJ Cole, and Jorja Smith.
Implementing vintage vibes in the modern digital age, Conducta is more than just a musician. He is a tastemaker, cultural curator and a flag-bearer of a genre poised for a massive comeback. The 'Prince of UKG' isn't simply churning out tracks; he's paving a path for the future of Dance/Electronic music and contributing to a seismic shift in the UK’s musical soundscape.
In a relatively short career span so far, Conducta has established himself as a stalwart of the UK Garage scene. He continues to win the hearts of global audiences with his infectious energy, innovative sounds, and clear reverence for the musical tradition he proudly represents. Keep an eye out for this Dance/Electronic maestro because he’s stirring up a storm that’s set to reshape the rhythm of the dance floors.
