AudioWave Records is proud to celebrate a defining moment in our journey: Teddy has officially reached #1 on the 2025 UK Garage Charts with his breakout single “Keep Runnin”. The track now sits at the very top of Spotify’s 2025 UK Garage playlist, cementing Teddy’s position as one of the most exciting new voices in the UK scene and reaffirming AudioWave’s role as a leading force in modern independent music.


For us, this moment represents far more than a chart position — it is a direct reflection of what our artist-first model was built to achieve: real success, real impact, and real momentum for talented creators.

A Rising Star With a Breakout Record


“Keep Runnin” has quickly become one of the most talked-about UK Garage tracks of the year. Its energetic production, emotional vocal delivery, and modern garage sound has resonated with listeners across the UK and beyond. Within days of release, the track surged to the #1 position, surpassing major entries by established artists such as MPH, Monaco, PRMGH, Taf, and GBSN.


Teddy’s achievement highlights the growing movement of independent artists shaping the sound of tomorrow — and proving they can compete at the very highest levels without major-label constraints.


A Win for Artist Ownership and Creative Freedom

At AudioWave Records, we operate differently from traditional labels. We don’t take ownership of our artists’ music. We don’t hide behind confusing contracts. We don’t charge for essential services.


Instead, we focus on:


  • Artist ownership and full creative control

  • Fair, transparent publishing and distribution

  • Professional mixing, mastering, and branding support

  • Global distribution to over 150 DSPs at no cost

  • Playlist pitching and marketing included as standard


This model is designed to empower the artist — and Teddy’s chart-topping success is a clear example of what happens when talent is supported by a label that truly believes in them.


Shaping the Future of UK Garage


“Keep Runnin” is part of a wave of fresh UK Garage releases redefining the genre for a new era. The track bridges classic UKG energy with modern sonic innovation — a combination that has resonated powerfully with fans, tastemakers, and playlist curators.

As UK Garage continues to surge in popularity across streaming platforms, TikTok, festivals, and club nights, Teddy is poised to become one of the genre’s signature breakout acts of 2025.


A Milestone For AudioWave Records


This achievement marks a key moment in AudioWave’s evolution:


  • Our first #1 in the 2025 UK Garage Charts

  • A major validation of our artist-first label model

  • A clear signal that independent music is stronger than ever


We have always believed that artists thrive when they’re supported rather than controlled — and Teddy reaching #1 proves that belief right.

This is only the beginning.


What’s Next for Teddy


With a #1 single now under his belt, Teddy is gearing up for a massive year ahead, including:


  • New releases already in development

  • Collaborations with emerging and established UK artists

  • Live performances and festival appearances

  • A growing presence across radio, TikTok, and streaming


Momentum is now firmly behind him — and we’re proud to be part of the journey.


Teddy’s #1 chart success is a celebration of artistry, authenticity, and the power of an independent label operating with integrity. AudioWave Records will continue championing creators who push boundaries, innovate, and bring real culture to the global stage.


Congratulations Teddy — #1 in the UK Garage Charts. A huge win, and a sign of things to come.
