Green Man Rising winners wing! announces debut EP, Missed It Just The Once
Bexleyheath born and raised producer wing! has announced his debut EP, Missed It Just The Once, and has shared new single, "Out The Outer".
The first single "Out From Outer" was the first track written for the EP, and its original skeleton was conceived during wing!’s lunch break from working in a coffee shop – a habit that has been the basis of all of the tracks on the EP. “I was listening to a lot of Brazilian funk and thinking about how J Dilla layered samples on Geek Down,” he recalls. “I wanted it to feel like a live DJ endlessly flipping samples over a drum loop.”
Emerging from a period of creative exploration and personal transformation, Missed It Just The Once marks a pivotal moment for wing! “This EP was a breath of fresh air for me,” he shares. “It was the first time I had multiple tracks I was proud of. The idea of having an EP to listen back to and be excited about was completely new to me.”
wing! were crowned the winners of the Green Man Rising competition, judged by a panel of industry experts. Beating out over 4,000 applicants to gain the title, they will open Green Man Festival 2025 performing on its Mountain Stage.
Missed It Just The Once will be released on 12 September via Memorials of Distinction. wing! will perform on 13 June at The Windmill, Brixton. Tickets are available now.
