Megan Wroe is stepping into a new era filled with infectious melodies and bouncy basslines. Today marks the release of See Thru, the first track on the Bolton-based artist’s upcoming five-track EP titled Lovestep.
Carving out a space for introspective and heartfelt tunes in the UK bass and garage scene, See Thru, is produced by friend and past collaborator Silva Bumpa. The pair first joined forces for their 2024 track Without U which has since become a club classic. On See Thru, backed by his gritty soundscapes, Wroe’s euphoric vocals tell a tale as old as time, one of catching your significant other cheating, red-handed on the dance floor. Lyrics, bittersweet in nature, carefully contrast the hard hitting beats of the music, resulting in a club-bumping hit that will have you getting over your ex in no time.
After three years of collaborative singles and spinning track alongside the likes of Bakey, Sophia Violet, Main Phase and Prozak, Wroe is stepping out into the discotheque alone. Releasing February 2026 under Locked On Records – responsible for producing some of the biggest hits in UK dance music history such as Wideboys’ Sambuca and Artful Dodger’s You’re Movin’ Too Fast – Lovestep is set to offer a line-up of “dancey bangers”, mediative singles and some of her debut solo productions to help bass patrons through “heartbreak and hedonistic bliss”. Here, we caught up with Wroe to chat about all things dance floor debauchery, Bolton’s music scene and what the future of her music holds.
1. Describe your sound in 10 words or less.
Fun, cute, soulful, gritty, girly, nostalgic.
2. Tell us a little bit about See Thru.
Me and Silva Bumpa started working on the track shortly after we made Without U and it has sort of been on the back burner for the best part of a year. He brought part of the instrumental to a session and we worked on it from there. I was trying to get across that its about an untrustworthy partner and confronting them in a club or something along those lines, I wanted to try and do that without the lyrics being quite as wordy and story-telling as Without U was.
3. If you were curating your own festival, who would be your three headliners?
I’d love to have G33, ESC, Confidence Man, Ben UFO, The Trip, Saoirse, Shanti Celeste, Salute, there’s far too many to choose from.
4. What artist made you want to get into dance music growing up?
K-Klass and Inner City.
5. What can we expect from Lovestep?
Fun, heartfelt dance tunes. The final song of the EP I’m hoping can be viewed as a sort of set ender/finale feel to finish it off.
6. The track is described as “an emotional tale of dance floor debauchery”, what’s the naughtiest thing you’ve seen from behind the DJ booth?
I actually haven’t had the pleasure of seeing anything too too wild whilst DJ’ing if I’m honest other than the standard people up to no good if you catch my drift.
7. Who’s a fellow Bolton artist we should be listening to?
IPC of course. There’s some Manchester based artists that I love like Mattik and MBB (an amazing DJ I saw play at a Keep Hush event, she is so so good).
8. When have you experienced a moment of dance floor euphoria?
One time at my second ever gig playing at XLR in Wilmslow for Militant Events <3, I ended on So Many Times by Gadjo one of my all time favourite songs and everyone was singing, my friends were behind the decks with me too, it was just so fun. Also when I played in Leeds for Girls Dont Sync and ended on Shine II by Sam Alfred, the room was absolutely massive and packed and the song has such a long build up, people were even on shoulders it was insane, got me teary-eyed for sure.
9. Where’s the ideal location to listen to See Thru?
A sweaty club. I’m thinking of peak time Meraki in Liverpool.
10. What does the rest of the year hold for you?
A few more single releases, hopefully more events and collaborations too. Maybe putting on my own event or something would be cool.
