ABOUT

Inland Knights are Andrew Riley and Laurence Ritchie — a legendary UK production and DJ duo who helped shape the sound of modern deep house. Emerging from the vibrant free party scene of the Midlands in the mid-1990s, the pair brought raw underground energy to the studio, combining soulful grooves, rolling basslines, and funk-driven house rhythms.

​

In 1998, their shared passion for quality dance music led to the birth of Drop Music, a label that quickly became a global reference point for deep house. Through Drop, Inland Knights released a stream of influential 12”s and EPs, as well as music under a range of aliases including Toka Project, Larry Fives, Party Criminals, In House Alterations, and Big Audio Spidermite.

​

Over the years, the duo’s distinctive sound — warm, rhythmic, and relentlessly groove-based — has earned them international acclaim, countless DJ sets around the world, and a loyal following among house music purists. Their catalogue reflects more than two decades of consistency, authenticity, and dedication to the dancefloor.

​

Today, Inland Knights remain synonymous with UK deep house excellence: producers, DJs, and curators whose influence continues to echo through the global house scene.
