Artist Bio -

If you hadn’t worked it out from his sound, Olly (Formula) loves hardware, and is influenced by old-

school Serum and Voltage tunes along with Unglued, Upgrade and KY. Growing up on Philly Blunt

and now Souped Up, Formula started his journey into production in 2012, and had even DJ’d

previously whilst living abroad at the age of 11/12. Learning to beatbox, produce and also sing

means that he has a repertoire as a talented musician as well as a producer, and you can hear his

vocals on tracks such as ‘Moving Forward’ (Space Yacht). Influenced by his experiences of trying new

things, Formula has garnered an interest in hardware and the analog-style authentic sounding jump-

up that can be produced with it. Despite this, what makes Olly such a great producer is that he

refuses to stick to one niche of drum and bass. If something sounds good, he wants to make it; not

be stuck in one sub-genre or style. With HUGE releases coming this year on some of the biggest

labels in drum & bass, Formula is by far one of the hottest producers to keep your eye on.
