Awake

Metrik with his fourth studio album Awake – a bold new chapter in drum and bass. London-based producer, vocalist and DJ Metrik returns in 2025 with Awake, a 12-track odyssey that pushes drum and bass into uncharted territory. Five years in the making, the album marks his most ambitious and personal work to date – a fusion of ferocious energy, immersive world-building and raw emotion. It features the singles iAbyss, Immortal, Fall To The Dust, Overdrive (with Grafix) and the title track Awake have torn through clubs and festivals worldwide, while Hole – a collaboration with Enter Shikari’s Rou Reynolds – was crowned BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record in the World. On Awake, Metrik brings his full creative arsenal to the fore. He writes, produces and performs his own vocals, crafting songs that sit at the collision point between industrial grit, euphoric melody and cinematic scale. Built on a foundation of drum and bass but unafraid to reach into metal and industrial textures, the record shifts effortlessly from introspective moments to explosive festival weapons. Fuelled by his own songwriting, vocals and multi-instrumental performances, it captures both vulnerability and scale – equally at home in headphones or on the main stage.
