Under the name Headhunter, Addison Groove became one of the first producers to fuse UK influences with urgent, energetic beats from Chicago, namely footwork, juke and ghetto house. Back in the day he was best known for his hit singles such as 'Footcrab.’ Having produced two albums inspired by the sounds of Chicago (2012’s Transistor Rhythm and 2014’s Presents James Grieve), Williams’ approach is evolving. Among his new, more prominent influences, he lists once-obscure genres that are now making headway both sides of the Atlantic: South African gqom, Angolan kuduru and cumbia from South America.
