Through his productions, DJ sets, and record labels, Midland strikes a balance between subtlety and surprise—refined yet totally raucous.
As a producer, his sound has constantly evolved, from early collaborations like Your Words Matter with Pearson Sound, to Trace, and the playful You Never Take Me Dancing. He launched the Graded label for his own music, followed by ReGraded, which focused on sampling and led to the breakout hit Final Credits—Mixmag’s Song of the Year in 2016. In 2018, he launched InterGraded to support emerging artists.
His remix credits include Dua Lipa, The Chemical Brothers, St Vincent, and Darkstar. But it’s perhaps as a DJ that Midland shines most—known for his seamless, emotive sets that reflect both UK roots and European finesse. Resident Advisor praised his ability to find “a perfect record for every moment.”
He won BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix of the Year in 2016, and his Fabriclive94 mix was hailed as one of the year’s best by Pitchfork and Mixmag. In 2024, Midland released his debut album Fragments of Us, featuring the voices of David Wojnarowicz, Marlon Riggs, and Arthur Russell. Described as “the concept album of the year” by Dazed, it earned top spots on best album lists from RA, Mixmag, and DJ Mag.
