K Motionz Floors It With ‘REDLINE’ Mixtape
Seven tracks deep, the Positiva release finds the UK powerhouse colliding drum & bass, rap, and UKG with Clavish, Capo Lee, Songer, Emily Makis, and Arka.

K Motionz starts 2026 with the pedal fully down. His long-awaited REDLINE mixtape is out now via Positiva and it feels like the sound of an artist locking into a whole new gear. Fresh off a run of headline shows across Tokyo, Australia, Bangkok, New Zealand, and Zurich, the Birmingham-born producer continues to prove why he is one of the UK’s most exciting drum & bass exports right now.
Across seven tracks, REDLINE sees him bending drum & bass around UK rap flows and flashes of garage that tap into his roots. Clavish, Songer, Capo Lee, Emily Makis, and Arka all step up for collaborative features on the mixtape, while solo cuts like “100 Reps” and “Expectations” show his range.
“REDLINE has been a long time coming,” he says. “I wanted to create something that felt as me as possible… not just sticking to drum & bass, which I’d typically be known for.” The result is bass-heavy, hook-loaded, and built for reloads. A mixtape that feels like a reset button being slammed with intent as he signals that "a new era of K Motionz has begun."
Redline is raw, ambitious, and built to shake rooms. A proper statement from an artist stepping deeper into his own lane. It hits like his live show feels: bass in your chest, reload-worthy drops, no filler.
