Not the Singer

Not the Singer is the moniker of London-born, Melbourne-based producer Sam Smith, crafting bass-driven club music that sits somewhere between structure and spontaneity. Drawing from UKG, experimental percussion, and the UK underground, his sound blends deep sub-bass, distorted textures, and ethereal pads with intricate, off-kilter drum work. Growing up in London, he was immersed in the sounds of garage, jungle, and techno - formative influences that still resonate in his productions. Now in Melbourne, his music bridges those roots with a more exploratory, forward-thinking approach, balancing dancefloor weight with atmospheric depth. With heavy low-end, unpredictable rhythms, and a knack for shaping space through sound, Not the Singer creates tracks that move fluidly between intensity and introspection, always keeping listeners locked in but never in one place for too long.
