ARTBAT

ARTBAT is a Ukrainian dance duo with a melodic, propulsive sound which shifts between tech-house and progressive house. They formed in the mid-2010s and their debut single "Mandrake" soon received support from Richie Hawtin, leading to releases on labels like Diynamic and Watergate. As they expanded their international reach and became festival mainstays, they formed their appropriately named Upperground imprint in 2021, and major collaborations with the likes of Pete Tong, David Guetta, Idris Elba, and Armin van Buuren followed. 2024 single "Hollow" (with MORTEN and Bonn) was a festival hit, and ARTBAT subsequently released tracks like 2025's "Love Is Gonna Save Us" (with Benny Benassi) and 2026's "Break the Loop" (with Giuseppe Ottaviani and Conor Ross).
