Chase & Status return with the release of their new single ‘Time’ featuring rising star Delilah on the May 2, out through Mercury Records. ‘Time’ follows the release of Top five single ‘Blind Faith’ featuring Liam Bailey, and their second album ‘No More Idols’. It debuted at number two, behind Adele, and is still flying high in the Official UK Charts.
To coincide with the release of ‘Time’, Chase & Status have teamed up with UKF and Drum & Bass Arena to give fans and enthusiasts the opportunity to try their hand at remixing a Chase & Status single. The best remix, as chosen by Will & Saul, will be included on the iTunes release of the single, as well as winning £500, a Pro Soundcloud account, T-shirts, signed CDs and VIP Chase & Status gig tickets. It will be a tough contest, with initial demands for the download being so high that it crashed the Universal servers.
The duo Chase & Status (Saul Milton and Will Kennard) have also just announced their Autumn tour, their fifth live tour in two years, which starts in Birmingham on October 6, and includes a huge show at London’s Brixton Academy. This tour follows their sold out ‘No More Idols’ tour this month which sees them play a landmark sold out show at the London Roundhouse on March 11.
‘No More Idols’ features collaborations with rising stars such as Maverick Sabre, Tempa T and Claire Maguire as well as Cee-Lo, Tinie Tempah, Dizzee Rascal and White Lies to name but a few. The single ‘Time’ follows three top 10 singles, as well as the free download ‘Hypest Hype’.
