ExCo

London, UK — Verse Three Records, a brand-new independent electronic label, proudly announces its first official release, “Quiet Steps”, landing on all major streaming and download platforms on Friday 28th November 2025. The track introduces the label with a striking blend of dub-infused electronic production and a captivating, emotive vocal performance.

Founded by three lifelong friends — Keith Doyle (Director/Founder & Head of A&R), Steve Liddle (Lofty)(Director/Founder & Producer - Lofty) and Alvin Koumetio (Director/Founder & Songwriter) — Verse Three Records (UK) represents a collective leap into the industry after more than 15 years of shared musical connection. Their professional backgrounds form a strong creative backbone: Doyle in artist management (notably UK rapper Jevon) and promotions, Lofty in production, and Koumetio in songwriting.

About the Track — “Quiet Steps”

“Quiet Steps,” produced and written by Lofty, with additional songwriting from Keith Doyle and Alvin Koumetio, stands as an atmospheric, dub-leaning electronic record built around themes of absence, memory, and emotional perseverance. Liddle crafted the song with his late father in mind, using the production to express the silence and space left behind when someone pivotal is no longer there.

The track’s emotional message reaches far beyond personal loss — reflecting the universal experience of carrying someone with you as life moves forward, whether through grief, heartbreak, or the ending of a deep connection. Its heartfelt tone and textured soundscape mark a strong creative identity for Verse Three Records from the outset.

Keith Doyle, Director/Founder & Head of A&R, says:

“Quiet Steps is more than just our first release — it’s the beginning of what we stand for as a label. It’s emotional, it’s honest, and it brings together everything we’ve learned individually into something we’ve created collectively. This record represents the heart of Verse Three Records.”

A New Creative Chapter

With friendship at the core of their journey, the founders of Verse Three Records have channelled years of shared passion, experience, and creative vision into their first official project. “Quiet Steps” is not only the label’s introduction — it is a clear statement of intent, showcasing the depth, emotion, and artistic quality that the trio aims to bring into the electronic music space.

Verse Three Records is a UK-based independent electronic label founded by three lifelong

friends — Keith Doyle, Steve Liddle (Lofty), and Alvin Koumetio — each bringing a

unique background and creative strength to a shared vision. United by more than 15 years of

friendship and a deep-rooted passion for music, the trio created Verse Three Records to

champion emotionally driven, forward-thinking electronic music.

With foundations built on real industry experience, the label’s DNA is shaped by three

distinct pillars:

● Keith Doyle (Director/Founder & Head of A&R) — a seasoned music professional

with roots in artist management and promotions, notably working with UK rapper

Jevon. Keith brings strategic insight, a finely tuned ear for talent, and a strong

understanding of what makes a record connect.

● Steve Liddle (Director/Founder & Producer, Lofty) — an accomplished producer

whose sonic craft forms the backbone of the label’s output. Steve’s studio expertise

and emotive production style define the musical direction of Verse Three Records.

● Alvin Koumetio (Director/Founder & Songwriter) — a songwriter with a natural

ability to translate emotion into melody and narrative. Alvin provides the lyrical and

conceptual depth that drives the label’s creative identity.

Together, they formed Verse Three Records to create a home for electronic music that

carries meaning, atmosphere, and emotional resonance. Their focus spans across

electronic sub-genres, blending dub influences, house, experimental textures, and

vocal-driven dance music.

A Creative Beginning

The label’s debut release, “Quiet Steps,” produced by Liddle and written by Doyle and

Koumetio, sets the tone for what Verse Three Records represents — heartfelt storytelling,

expressive electronic sound, and innovative collaboration. The track encapsulates the trio’s

combined artistry and announces their arrival in the electronic music landscape with clarity

and confidence.

The Verse Three Vision

Verse Three Records aims to:

● Champion emerging and established talent across the electronic spectrum

● Deliver emotionally powerful records shaped by authenticity

● Build a community-driven platform grounded in creativity, friendship, and shared

passion

● Release music that resonates on and beyond the dancefloor

From their roots as childhood friends to their evolution into founders of a forward-thinking

label, Verse Three Records stands as a testament to collaboration, emotional expression,

and the belief that music is most powerful when crafted from real stories.
