Career history

2010–2014: Early beginnings and commercial breakthrough

Delta Heavy first signed to Viper Recordings in 2009, and provided the songs "Galaxy" and "Abort" for two of the label's compilations. They were picked up by the prestigious drum and bass label RAM Records in 2010, and released their first two singles, "Space Time" and "Overkill" with them. Their debut extended play, Down the Rabbit Hole, was released in May 2012.[1] It entered the UK Dance Chart at number 37.

2014–present: Paradise Lost

On 2 November 2014, the group released the first single from their debut album, "Reborn". This was followed by "Ghost", released 17 July 2015. The song gained popularity due to its music video, which features an animated Clippit. The album's third single, "Punish My Love", features vocals from British singer Tanika, and was released 4 December 2015. The album's title and release date were announced on 14 January 2016; Paradise Lost was released on 18 March 2016. On 22 January, "City of Dreams" was released as an instant grat single for those who pre-ordered the album on iTunes.[2][self-published source?] The album's fourth official single, "Oscillator", was released on 4 March, backed with "Fun House".[3][self-published source?] "White Flag VIP", a variation in production of album track "White Flag", is expected to be released in the near future, backed with "Arcadia" (featuring Metrik).[citation needed]

Delta Heavy have been releasing music through Monstercat as of 2017 and 2018, such as "Exodus", "I Need You", and "Stay", with Dirty Audio.
