A partnership that combines influences in jazz, soul, broken beat and hip hop, Kassian is a musical exploration from a duo set on taking their own direction in club music. Formed of Danvers and Warren Xclnce, the project spawned from a chance meeting at a party in Peckham London organised by a mutual contact.

With Danvers' background in the Bristol club scene and Warren having collaborated with many of London's eminent soul and house artists, their common interests lead them to their first studio session together at London’s legendary Premises. Their first demos caused a stir, catching the attention of Detroit Swindle who signed their debut EP and set it for release on their own imprint Heist Recordings.

To follow the duo have gained further support from key imprints, locking in an upcoming release on the respected London record store’s label Phonica White, following in the footsteps of artists such as Peggy Gou and Midland. With early support from admired labels, credentials as well-informed selectors and a monthly residency at independent radio station Balamii, Kassian is set to make a splash.
