In 2019 Charlotte de Witte broke out to the top of the electronic music scene with a no sleep mindset and work ethic claimed by many but endured by few. The Overdrive EP is a soundtrack to the break neck speed at which she’s been pushing herself and the KNTXT label forward since then. With a sonic approach to ticking the boxes, but the strong refusal to becoming boxed in. A boundary breaking credo to push ourselves beyond our limits. Taking us on the furthest journey so far with this release, showcasing a street style that is both rough and stylish, delivering high-energy ecstatic tracks that liberates listeners.
‘Overdrive’ is an anthem about pushing yourself beyond your peak and submitting to a turbocharged version of yourself. The bold fearless power it unlocks, that liberates us from daily constraints. A fierce ecstatic state/feeling that pulses through your body, raging through your senses. Whether a raver or a racer, or both as de Witte herself, this fast paced thrill energizes and liberates. An ode to the raw fighting spirit that breathes in corners of NY & LA.
Quote Charlotte de Witte (pitch info):
I love playing around with different genres and styles and in the case of High Street (and the entire Overdrive EP by expansion), it’s been cool to see how well hip hop and techno actually collide. The general attitude of the vocal in High Street carries the track and speaks to people. This has been a very fun one to make.
Transcending boundaries with her unique artistry, the DJ, producer and label head has cemented herself as one of the music industry's most in-demand names. Charlotte de Witte's signature sonic approach masterfully blends genres with a visceral energy that commands attention, the ardent catalyst in her meteoric rise from Belgium’s underground to global phenomenon status.
