Exile enters 2026 following a year of growth and quietly significant milestones. His biggest release to date arrived in November with Danny Byrd on Byrdhouse - Higher - a collaboration years in the making that received extensive support from BBC Radio 1, Capital and tastemakers including MistaJam, marking a defining moment in his catalogue. Alongside this, Exile further strengthened his relationship with Vibe Chemistry, completing a collaborative release on his Make Your Era imprint after becoming a regular presence on the label. Meanwhile, Exile’s own platform, Banished Beats, closed out its second year with a full rebrand and a Christmas celebration at the infamous Bass Barn, reinforcing its growing presence within the underground.
On the road, Exile was invited back to stages across the UK festival and club circuit, including Equinox Festival, Jungle Cakes and DNB Collective, continuing to showcase his ability to adapt seamlessly across jungle, rollers and jump-up sets.
As he moves into 2026, Exile does so with a refreshed visual identity, his strongest Spotify and SoundCloud numbers to date, and new music lined up - including a forthcoming collaboration with Bladerunner to start the year, alongside a busy release schedule on Banished Beats and further projects already in motion.
Focused, evolving, and quietly building momentum - Exile’s next chapter is firmly underway.
