Addison Groove

Addison Groove is the alias of Tony Williams, a forward-thinking producer and DJ based in Bristol, UK, widely recognized for his innovative approach to bass music. Emerging fully onto the electronic scene in the early 2010s, Addison Groove quickly established a reputation for fusing UK bass, juke, and footwork influences with a distinctive, percussive, and energetic sound. Formerly producing under the name Headhunter, Williams shifted towards lighter, more rhythm-driven productions, adopting the Addison Groove moniker with the release of the seminal track "Footcrab" on Swamp81 in 2010—a tune that helped introduce Chicago footwork to European audiences and cemented his status as a pioneer in hybrid dance music styles.

His work is characterized by sparse, syncopated drum programming, buoyant bass lines, and an infectious dancefloor sensibility that bridges the gaps between dubstep, techno, and house. With releases on respected labels such as Swamp81, 50Weapons, and Tectonic, and with a reputation for high-octane DJ sets, Addison Groove continues to influence contemporary club music by pushing boundaries and exploring the intersections of global dance music cultures.
