Upgrade Returns to Crucast with ‘Knock / Revenge’

For over a decade, Upgrade has been one of the most dependable names in underground Drum & Bass. While trends have come and gone, the Norwich-born producer has built his reputation the traditional way: through consistent releases, DJ support and a catalogue that continues to find its place in sets across clubs, festivals and warehouses worldwide. His latest Crucast release, Knock / Revenge, is the latest chapter in that story.

A respected figure within the scene, Upgrade has earned support from some of Drum & Bass' biggest selectors throughout his career, while amassing millions of streams across a catalogue that spans hundreds of releases. More importantly, he has remained a favourite amongst DJs and ravers alike by staying true to the sound and culture that helped establish him in the first place. Rather than chasing short-lived moments, Upgrade has spent years building a reputation rooted in authenticity, consistency and an unwavering connection to the dancefloor.

That connection is once again evident with Knock / Revenge. Released via Crucast, the two-track package immediately resonated with fans and DJs, going straight to #1 on the Beatport Drum & Bass Release Chart, while lead track Knock entered the Beatport Drum & Bass Singles Chart Top 3. The achievement adds another milestone to a career that continues to prove its relevance within one of electronic music's most competitive genres.

For Crucast, the release represents another collaboration with an artist whose influence stretches far beyond streaming numbers. Upgrade's longevity comes from years of delivering records that become part of rave culture itself, passed between DJs, tested in clubs and embraced by dedicated Drum & Bass audiences. With Knock / Revenge already making an impact on the charts, it's further evidence that some artists don't need reinvention to stay relevant. They simply continue doing what they do best.
