The giants of Japanese and British hard sound clash! UK hardhouse legends BK and M-Project unveil "Out Of My Head," the ultimate floor banger that will shake the world!

A miraculous collaboration has been realized between BK, a producer who continues to reign as a "legend" in the UK hardhouse scene, a genre of dance music that was born in the early 1990s, and M-Project, a heavyweight in the Japanese hardcore techno scene with a career of over 25 years. Their new song, "Out Of My Head," was released on July 17th (Friday) by avex EDM.

Ben Keen, also known as BK, began his career at the age of 16 as an apprentice engineer at a London studio. While working on music production for movies and television, he honed his unique hard rock sound. His signature song "Revolution," released in 2001, became a global hit. It was included in the "Cyber TRANCE" compilation series, which caused a huge boom in Japan, and he enjoys immense popularity both domestically and internationally. Having released over 100 songs to date, he is a living legend of the scene who continues to evolve, having recently released a track on the prestigious "Armada Music" label run by Armin Van Buuren.

Having built a brilliant track record over several decades, BK chose M-Project as their first Japanese artist to collaborate with. Since starting their activities in 2000, they have released music on important overseas labels such as Kutski's "Keeping The Rave Alive" and the long-established Dutch hardcore label "Mokum Records," and have continued to lead the Japanese hardcore techno scene as pioneers.

This collaboration can truly be described as a "representative match" between Britain and Japan.
The finished "Out Of My Head" is an energetic track that truly deserves to be called the "ultimate UK hardhouse" updated for the modern era, with a blazing, fat bassline, emotional and upbeat piano, and a powerful acid riff that attacks after the break, running freely across the dance floor.
