eNGine Room is a not-for-profit artist development and record label, supporting and showcasing some of the best young talent emerging in Nottinghamshire, and is supported by Inspire and Arts Council England
eNGine Room launched in 2021 to develop artists with a focus on a range of tailored support – songwriting, recording, production, performance, marketing & promotional campaigns and releasing - to suit the development of young and emerging musical talent across Notts, and develop them to a level where they can record and produce material for release on the label and for performance at IYA events and showcases, external and partnership events.
eNGine Room is partnered with a team of associate artists and producers, designed to equip the young musicians with the best advice and tools for the development of their professional careers within the industry.
The current artist roster includes ALT BLK ERA, Sam Adams, Jack Chapman & Ashley Westlake, Able Orchestra / Jess Fisher, and BetseyB. The label has already released over 25 singles since May 2021, plus one EP and a full album for the BeiNG Music Festival - and many are achieving great success with thousands of streams on Spotify and other digital platforms. The label also releases special one-off collaborations and projects.
All of the artists have already featured on Dean Jackson’s BBC Introducing show on BBC Radio Nottingham’s ‘The Beat’, including interviews and features, as well as national airplay on Radio 1. Three of the artists have also gone on to record NUSIC spotlight sessions, and are starting to grab support slots on established bands’ tours, and playing venues such as the Rescue Rooms & The Bodega, as well as venues in Manchester, Leeds & Leicester.
PLUS ALT BLK ERA have recently won the ‘Future Sound of Nottingham’ contest at Rock City and have had rave reviews at Splendour Festival, and recently were invited by Spotify toi attend the Misfits 2.0 Anti-Prom in London!
eNGine Room are currently recruiting and looking out for new artists to develop – both from within IYA’s successful music programmes and across Nottinghamshire, so contact us with info and demos if you want to get involved. (Graphic in images folder)
