Rest In Peace J-1
Yesterday we heard the tragic news that our friend, Jovan Coleman aka J-1, passed away after an accident in Sweden.
J was a wonderfully positive and loving human being, a talented producer and an incredible drummer. He was so supportive of what we do, for which we will always be thankful, as well as being thankful that he graced our lives. We just wish we were able to spend more time in his...
Hoya:Hoya Podcast 3- Ikonika
Time for the third installment of our little mix series and this one comes courtesy of Hoya favourite, Ikonika.
Ikonika is one of the best in the game, carving out her own unique sound from the early release of ‘Please’ through to her last release, ‘Fleas’ on our own label; she’s played Hoya three times, release on HOYA003 so it only seemed right to do the third...

Lone's Set From The Radiohead Boiler Room
As everyone probably knows, Lone and Illum Sphere were invited by Radiohead to play at their launch party for TKOL 1234567 remix album. It was a historic night, and having two Hoya boys there is kinda, well, crazy.
Anyway, Lone’s set has now been uploaded, so head over to the Boiler Room by clicking HERE.
