The newest is “One Step (Closer) [A Hundred Drums Remix] - Single,” a remix edition credited to A Hundred Drums & Johnny Based.

A Hundred Drums’s captured release history contains 31 dated entries, spanning March 21, 2019 to September 2, 2026. The newest is “One Step (Closer) [A Hundred Drums Remix] - Single,” a remix edition credited to A Hundred Drums & Johnny Based. This establishes a documented sequence of published work; the earliest entry here is a catalog boundary, not a verified career debut.

03 · Release history & structure
Documented record

The captured sequence covers 8 distinct release years. It includes 24 entries explicitly titled as singles, 3 EPs or other multi-track collections, 2 remix editions and 2 DJ mixes. These categories describe catalog packaging, not a count of unique compositions. Alternate versions and repackaged material can appear as separate releases.

Analytical judgment

“A Hundred Drums - EP” (2020) provides a longer-form reference point, followed later in this sample by “Body & Soul - EP” (2023). Read alongside the singles, this suggests a catalog built around both individual tracks and larger listening projects.

04 · Collaborators & release network
Documented record

Shared artist-credit lines appear on 6 captured entries. A Hundred Drums & Johnny Based is credited on 1 entry, including “One Step (Closer) [A Hundred Drums Remix] - Single” (2026). A Hundred Drums & RaeCola is credited on 1 entry, including “Go Getter (A Hundred Drums Remix) - Single” (2026). Dirtwire & A Hundred Drums is credited on 1 entry, including “Dancing On My Own - Single” (2025). A shared collection credit can represent a collaboration, remix or another credited role; it is not proof that every credited artist co-produced every track.

Documented record

The rights line on “One Step (Closer) [A Hundred Drums Remix] - Single” reads “℗ 2026 AHD021.” An earlier reference, “Too Many Circuits (Feat. Jayne Gray) - Single” (2019), lists “℗ 2019 Street Ritual.” Rights credits identify the release’s published ownership or licensing context. They do not by themselves establish an exclusive label signing, management relationship or personal endorsement.

05 · Current cycle & trajectory
Documented record

The sample contains 8 entries dated within the 365 days ending September 24, 2026, compared with 7 in the preceding 365-day interval. Recent reference points include “News Room - Single” (May 7, 2026); “Ragga Girl - Single” (July 16, 2026); “One Step (Closer) [A Hundred Drums Remix] - Single” (September 2, 2026). Counts reflect this captured catalog, so they should not be read as a complete production total or a measured change in popularity.

06 · Audience & reach
Documented record

Spotify displayed 64.1K monthly listeners on September 8, 2026. This is a platform audience snapshot, not a total fan count.

07 · Analyst outlook
Analytical judgment

A Hundred Drums has several recent catalog entries to evaluate as a connected release cycle. The next meaningful test is whether attention persists across subsequent releases, rather than concentrating on one title. Repeat listener measurements, independent DJ support and comparable live-demand evidence would distinguish sustained scene traction from release frequency alone.

Sources & analytical limits

This dossier uses public catalog records, artist and promoter profiles, and cited reporting. It is independent music analysis. Catalog history is a bounded sample: its first entry is not necessarily a debut, and alternate editions are not unique compositions. Shared credits do not establish each person’s production role. Release frequency does not measure popularity. Biographical statements retain their source attribution; editorial interpretation is labeled.
