Brooklyn-based DJ, producer and label head Saqib returns to his own Beats On Time imprint with ‘gimmenow’, a psychedelic, tripped-out slice of indie dance made for the moments when a dancefloor is ready to get a little weird. A funky, playful bounce drives the track from the first bar, pairing a light-footed roll with an earworm hook that draws you in deeper with every turn. Already road-tested in his sets, ‘gimmenow’ finds the sweet spot between infectious groove and mind-bending twists, the kind of single that sticks in your head long after the lights come up.

Saqib has become one of New York’s most distinctive voices in underground dance music. Raised in Pakistan as a guitarist, bass player and drummer steeped in rock and metal, he brings a musician’s instinct to the club, crafting records that slip easily between genres and eras. Since 2013 his music has landed on labels such as Abracadabra, Sol Selectas, Maccabi House, Flying Circus, Kindisch and Desert Hearts Black, while his DJ sets have made him a regular on Brooklyn’s finest dancefloors.

Launched in 2022, Beats On Time is Saqib’s Brooklyn home for forward-thinking club music. The label has built its reputation by refusing to stick to a single style, moving freely between indie dance, deep house, minimal and organic sounds while keeping an upbeat, dancefloor-focused spirit at its core. With showcases at Amsterdam Dance Event and Signal in Brooklyn, plus a growing family of local and international artists, the imprint keeps gaining momentum, and ‘gimmenow’ is a perfect snapshot of its fun, fearless attitude.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘gimmenow’ exclusively on When We Dip Radio. Enjoy!
