Charley Hullah is a London-based writer-producer, sound designer and content creator. 

HULLAH is a London based creative freelancer working in the music and media industries. When he’s not creating or producing his own music projects, he can be found sound-designing for theatre, creating digital content, organising music workshops and working on events such as the Artist and Manager Awards.

Most recently HULLAH became Content Manager for Disabled Students UK and has held the role of Content Manager for Alight Media where he developed a content delivery department for high budget nationwide out-of-home media campaigns.

Charley, who produces and performs music under his surname HULLAH, is creatively driven by a passion for nightlife culture and stories from the queer community. His own releases are inspired by artists such as Everything but the Girl, Real Lies, Portishead and Pet Shop Boys. His third solo release will be released to digital stores this coming November 16th 2022.

Wrapped in the sonic flavours of trip-hop, 90’s house and synth-pop, HULLAH’s work emulates a nocturnal spirit, and is complemented by the themes of city living, alienation, ambition and a sense of dejection – commonly expressed through his lyrics. His work, both introspective and solitary in tone, offers insight into how he navigates his way through the noise and distortion of everyday city life.

Along with Sicily-born Nicole Bullet, HULLAH is also half of the electro pop duo, Futuretape – a group that explores themes of how millennials navigate the digital world, friendships and internet culture. Their music, which combines a passion for nostalgia and the future, is characterised by 80’s synth-pop and PC music.

When not writing and producing for himself or for Futuretape, HULLAH writes for and with other artists, with his most recent songwriting work having been released by Gabrielle Ornate on her singles Waiting to be Found and Spirit of the Times and highlighted on BBC Radio Introducing, Amazing Radio and Tom Robinson’s Fresh on the Net.

HULLAH obtained a BA in songwriting at The Institute of Contemporary Music Performance (ICMP), a course where he honed his songwriting and production skills and explored the relationship between production and lyric. He has also produced tracks in collaboration with the Amy Winehouse Foundation through participation in the Amy’s Yard programme.
