Hedex (@hedexuk) is one of the leading names in contemporary drum & bass in the United Kingdom. Not too long ago, he released an official music video for his captivating, stripped-back single, “I Knew That This Was Love,” featuring esteemed singer-songwriter Maverick Sabre (@mavericksabre) through My Home Is The Rave.

Hedex reveals a new dimension to his artistry with “I Knew That This Was Love,” a track that swaps his trademark high-octane punch for skittering percussion, cinematic strings, and a deep, resonant bassline. The song crafts an immersive soundscape that underscores Hedex’s versatility and marks a bold step away from his heavier catalogue. Poised to cut through the mainstream while retaining an underground edge, the single further positions Hedex as one of the UK’s most exciting and refreshing talents on the rise.
“I Knew That This Was Love” is the latest single taken from Hedex’s long-awaited forthcoming debut album “MHITR,” a full-throttle celebration of soundsystem energy, underground roots, and a new era of global drum & bass, set to release in October. Hedex isn’t just riding the wave of drum & bass—he’s reshaping it. With an instinctive grasp of what moves both bodies and culture, the British artist creates a sound that’s as infectious in the raves as it is on the charts.
Hedex – “MHITR” Album
Hedex—aka Jack Hedges—went from discovering D&B through High Contrast’s “If We Ever,” to juggling early gigs across Europe with 5 am shifts at McDonald’s. Now the UK figurehead has balanced selling out both the OVO Arena Wembley and LA’s Palladium, underlining himself as a true outlier in the scene and a bona fide new-gen D&B superstar. With viral collabs alongside Chase & Status, Tion Wayne, and Tiësto already under his belt, the Cambridgeshire-born artist is set to release his “MHITR” album as both a personal statement and culture-shifting moment—capturing the chaos, energy, and euphoria of the scene he’s helped shape.
The upcoming, highly anticipated album blends earth-shaking basslines, razor-sharp percussion, and Hedex’s unmistakable flair, bringing in drum & bass scene legends alongside a widely anticipated return collab with ArrDee, while tapping into the UK’s wider sonic spectrum with Maverick Sabre. It’s a signal of intent: a forward-facing project that stays rooted in rave culture while pushing D&B toward the mainstream spotlight. MHITR continues the explosive rise of Hedex—from streaming anthems like “Liquor & Cigarettes” (82M+ streams) and “Move Your Body (Remix)” to selling out tours across the UK, EU, Australia, and North America.
