Chase & Status are a drum’n’bass, DJ and producer duo from London comprising Saul Milton (Chase) and Will Kennard (Status). Formed in Manchester in 2003, the duo received early backing from BBC Radio 1Xtra, releasing debut album ‘More than Alot’ in 2008. Known for their multi-genre approach and innovative production techniques, Chase & Status have since released five more albums, including the multi-Platinum ‘No More Idols’ (2011), headlined numerous festivals and produced many artists including Rihanna and Snoop Dogg. ‘Generic Everything’, their seventh album, was released in October 2026. Sitting down at Platoon Studios, the trio discuss collaborating with Little Simz and Skrillex on the album, how they keep their production techniques fresh seven records in, how their “DJ brains” influence their “production brains”, their advice for young producers to get the most out of collaborating and much more!
