About Regard

It was by accident that Regard found his stage name. The word, ‘regardé’ came to the DJ during French class in high school. ‘To See’ became the core behind Regard’s music.

Kosovan DJ and producer Regard garnered global attention with his debut single ‘Ride It’ which became an international hit with over 2 Billion streams! The track took the internet and TikTok by storm and Regard quickly followed it up with his second hit single and BRIT nominated ‘Secrets’ featuring South London singer RAYE. He has gone on to achieve over 10x Top 10 single chart placements globally. In the UK, ‘Ride It’ has sold over 1.7 million records (2x Platinum), while ‘Secrets’ is now certified Platinum with over 500 million global streams. ‘You’ with Troye Sivan and Tate McRae has achieved 480 million global streams, was the #1 TikTok sound in the UK and was the longest running #1 on the US Billboard Hot Dance / Electronic Songs chart in 2021 plus saw Regard on his US debut TV performance on Jimmy Fallon. Regard has had five #1 US Dance Airplay hits and over 5 billion combined career streams and 15 million worldwide single sales.

 

mazie:

Pairing fatalistic lyrics with shiny alt-pop arrangements that are as infectious as they are unpredictable has seen the quick ascension of 23-year old Baltimore native mazie. Her single "dumb dumb," which appears on her debut EP "the rainbow cassette," is a perfect embodiment of mazie's multilayered, psychedelic twist on pop that's Stepford Wives meets Lisa Frank. It's ironic, it's iconic, and to date the track has over 70+ million cumulative streams following its use in Netflix's hit show "Do Revenge."

mazie fell in love with singing at an early age and spent most of her childhood studying classical and jazz vocals. By the time she hit her teenage years living outside of Baltimore, she was writing her own music and recording it with her neighbor, Elie Rizk (Remi Wolf, Keshi, Bella Poarch), who was teaching himself to engineer and produce in his basement studio. The two spent years experimenting and collaborating before they landed on “no friends,” mazie’s breakout debut. Clocking in at less than two minutes, the utterly addictive single exploded online, earning widespread acclaim and quickly racked up millions of streams. “We were in total shock,” says mazie. “That song really defined the project for us, and when it started going crazy, everything just accelerated.

mazie's debut album "blotter baby" is coming out in 2023.
