CASH ONLY’s Famous When Dead Records Defines The Sound Of 2025

Famous When Dead Records is fast emerging as one of the UK’s most exciting independent electronic imprints. Founded by DJ/producer CASH ONLY, the label launched with a bold mission to shift the narrative in club culture by crossing genres and prioritising quality over commercial trends.

Despite its fresh arrival, the label has already delivered a string of standout releases, gaining serious traction across dancefloors, charts, and radio shows, firmly cementing its place as a rising force in the electronic music scene. Following the debut single “Another One” from UK chart-topper Syncia, Famous When Dead Records has continued to push boundaries with a sharp focus on house music and its offshoots. ​

With multiple releases climbing into the top ten, the label’s roster blends rising stars with established names, including Reigns, Patrick Meeks, Maisie Mae, Holly Ellison, and more. The result is a sound that resonates across clubs, charts, and radio, earning the imprint widespread support from DJs and dancefloors alike. Famous When Dead is more than just a label; it’s a growing creative collective. Built in collaboration with Midlands-based abstract street artist Famous When Dead, the label fuses music and visual storytelling, rejecting mainstream formulas in favour of a bold, multidisciplinary vision.

CASH ONLY comments, “We didn’t just want to build a label, we wanted to build a world. One that lives through a track, a T-shirt, a short film, or a full sensory club experience. Immersive, innovative and continually pushing forward.”

With a full summer schedule locked in, CASH ONLY is set to perform at Glastonbury, Hi Ibiza, Defected Croatia, Reading Festival, Parklife and Pikes Ibiza, bringing his Famous When Dead energy directly to dancefloors worldwide. In addition to a solid tour schedule, fans can expect a wave of upcoming releases in collaboration with Patrick Meeks, Holly Ellison, Reigns, VSTRV and a fresh set of remixes from Christiano Fry, Jewel Kid, Jon Bucceri and G-Double-E.

In conjunction with the label's notoriety, CASH ONLY has also continued to evolve in profile. Releasing on a selection of dance music’s most respected labels, including DVINE Sounds, Nervous, Newstate, Electronic Nature and Upcycle, including his recent No.2 on the Afro House Chart with ‘Holy Water’ on King Street Sounds. Now boasting 40K+ monthly listeners, over 1 million Spotify streams, regular editorial features, and a rapidly growing catalogue, the prolific producer is about to release his seventeenth track since returning to the studio a few months ago.

Set to drop June 27th, their momentum continues to build with the hotly anticipated release of ‘Move Slow’ ft Maisie Mae, marking CASH ONLY’s 17th track since returning to the studio a few years ago. Made in Amsterdam during ADE with Artist Tribe and their writing camps, the track sets the tone for a standout season of fresh music and international shows. Fans can also expect a stellar release on July 18th through the collaboration of CASH ONLY and Holly Ellison with Rotation and a Jewel Kid remix of the highly praised Take It Down on July 25th. For CASH ONLY and Famous When Dead Records, this is only the beginning, so stay tuned.

With the label and its boss, CASH ONLY, earning steady support from industry heavyweights like Major League, Alok, Mark Knight, Richie Hawtin, Shimza, Marco Lys, Paco Osuna, David Penn, DJ Spoony, and Sam Divine, 2025 is shaping up to be a breakout year.
