Singer, songwriter, and rapper, tmdistant, releases his breakout single ‘Mix It Up’

The 18-year-old artist of Essex, England, has now reached 20,000 streams for his new single ‘Mix It Up’ produced by New-York based Abare. The contemporary mix blends the genre of hyper-pop with an eclectic, exhilarating electronic beat. The complementary elements fuse to create an upbeat track, carefully curated to resonate with tmdistant’s strong audience.

The track was conceived through tmdistant’s sudden emergence in the UK music scene - reflecting on the once harsh and judgmental views of his peers now contrasting to their new behaviour towards him.

“I wrote this song after attending a few parties after Covid restrictions had eased and people starting to enjoy going out again. This motive I went to was full of people from my childhood (high school days) - as I entered the party, it felt like everyone saw a ghost. People were greeting me like I was a celebrity. It was a surreal feeling. I felt like a superstar. These were the same people that used to laugh at me when I first started making music funny enough. Thus why on the intro I said ‘they never understood the plan, they just pouring a cup’. Wherever I go these days, people know me - my presence always shakes things up. That’s what made me write this song the way I did. The rest can be interpreted however the listener thinks and feels.”

The ever-expanding fanbase of the artist has treated the new single with an overwhelming level of endorsement and interactivity - the inclusion of Mix It Up as BBC Introducing’s ‘weekly vibe’ undoubtedly encouraged the surge in the fanbase and pushed the track to be tmdistant’s second most popular song as of December 2021.

tmdistant’s promotional techniques, as well as the talent and devotion he put into the song, has allowed for Mix It Up to be heard all over the UK, and truly activates the development of tmdistant’s career, and the potential he holds and has shown his audience with the release of this song.
