“My love for dance music started when I was a child,” Hill says of the new project in a statement. “Some of my earliest memories are hearing Trance music in the charts and later being heavily influenced by the eclectic tastes of my big brother, he quickly turned me into an avid Drum ânâ Bass head even though I was too young to rave.
“When I finally turned 18, I started to wonder if rave was now different to what it was and whether Iâd missed out on the golden days of rave. So, I thought Iâd talk to some of the legends in the game and get an education on how music was made, listened to and the rave scene from before I was even born.”
Listen to an introductory section for the podcast, which will also feature DJ Zinc, Andy C, Fabio & Grooverider and more, here.
The news follows Hill’s recent single ‘Heaven On My Mind’, a collaboration with Sigala.
The singer is set to head out on a huge UK tour later this year, including a London date at Brixton Academy on December 3.
Hill, who first shot to fame when she appeared on The Voice back in 2012, released her first full-length project last year in the form of compilation album ‘Get To Know’.
