If you haven't heard of bullet tooth yet, you soon will. Brimming with UKG, rave, and rap influences made deviously dark with heavy low-end basslines, this faceless newcomer's captivating sound has seen him enjoy a meteoric rise since emerging on the scene in 2023. Graduating from Soundcloud bootlegs, the elusive artist made his Parklife debut this summer alongside rapper Capo Lee, with whom he produced "Keep It Rolling."

Featuring in sets for the likes of Sammy Virji, Main Phase, and Interplanetary Criminal, the aforementioned collab proved an instant hit, gracing BBC Radio 1 and 1Xtra airwaves via Sarah Story, Jeremiah Asiamah, DJ Target and more. Add supporters such as Floating Points, Laurent Garnier, and Bicep to the mix, and it's easy to see why there's so much hype and intrigue.

Concluding his summer with a bang, the UK artist joined Damian Lazarus for his Hï Ibiza residency alongside Black Coffee, and now the DJ/producer ventures into melodic landscapes via Damian Lazarus' Crosstown Rebels with "If I Can't Be Yours." The four-track EP also features additional remixes from LA-based talent Enamour and London's hotly sought-after Moroccan dubstep favorite Sicaria.

Leading with the powerful, "If I Can't Be Yours," bullet tooth takes his sound to the club, featuring nostalgic 90s-esque vocals over dubby bass that lean towards the dancefloor. Second up is the uniquely melancholic-euphoric "You Think You Can Fix Me," where UKG-style rhythms journey deep into melodic realms with purpose and precision.

On the b-side, California's Enamour reworks "If I Can't Be Yours," directing his energy into a high-energy remix destined for festival grounds. To close out the EP, Sicaria leans into breakbeats with a climbing rendition of her own, infusing the track with lingering afro-leaning flavors.
