A Whitley Bay native, Tony, has been shaking the British music scene with his latest single, “Lost My Voice”, which was released on Beatport on January 1, 2025. The song dropped on all listening platforms on January 15. The track is already noteworthy for its energetic and eclectic production. “Lost My Voice” is special due to its unconventional recording process. Instead of polished studio productions, this song was made entirely on a mobile phone using a £50 app. Tony recorded vocals in several pubs around Whitley Bay as well as his home, proving that great music can come from anywhere. Alongside the mysterious unnamed vocal samples bought from an online seller, the bold and novel approach really does the trick.
The song is an energetic dance track packed with uplifting vocals and an infectious beat made for a party. “Lost My Voice” will ignite dance floors and electrify clubs and festivals alike. The DIY vocals combined with Tony’s producing talent, and the final mastering by Plasmapool Mastering Studio in Germany make the production surprisingly impressive. Tony himself is an enigma in the music industry. His quotes reveal not only how the project struck him, but also his unfiltered self. When questioned about his artistic progression, he puts aside any romanticized tales and speaks without a filter: “Fuck that, I’ll just stay in the house or maybe go to the pub”. His reluctance for live performances (“Nope, I hate people”.) certainly adds to the mystique, which makes “Lost My Voice” all the more interesting.
While these methods may seem unorthodox, “Lost My Voice” serves as more than an experiment—it showcases what merging true talent with creativity can achieve. This track should not be overlooked if one is looking for an avant-garde take on dance music.
