The Heavytrackerz are a group of record producers, songwriters and instrumentalists from Walthamstow, East London. The group currently consists of Lord Teedot, G.Tank and RasEye.[1] HeavyTrackerz are often recognized as producers of singles for grime artists and UK rappers. Their songs are recognizable by a voice stating "trackerz" in time with the instrumental introduction. An example is clearly heard in the 2015 Dizzee Rascal single "Nutcrackerz".[2]

Notable productions

Meridian Dan's debut single "German Whip" (2014) peaked at number 13 on the UK Singles Chart. The track features vocals from Jme and Big H.[3]

Stormzy's single "Standard"[4] and Big Narstie's track "Woah" on Dice Recordings were also produced by The Heavytrackerz.[5]

Dizzee Rascal's single "Nutcrackerz", the name in reference to the producers, is a re-imagining of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.
