George Riley releases unveils another facet of More Is More with More Is More Is More; a deluxe version of the of their 2025 LP More Is More. Released in September, the project finds the London artist entering a bold new era of pop: playful, self-aware, and still deeply rooted in the underground.

Featuring a brand new song and two new remixes, More Is More Is More adds a club inspired songcraft of the original project. New song “Drip” is an uptempo cut of dancefloor-ready pop; imbued with a sense of carefree fun that accentuates the track’s relentlessly bounding energy. Taking the source material’s more chaotic tendencies and ramping them up to the hilt, London dance protagonist SHERELLE’S break-infused take on ‘More’ fires up a classic jungle sound that revolves around skittering production and dynamic textures. Verses GT, comprised of Jacques Greene and Nosaj Thing.

Over the past five years, George Riley has released her 2021 interest rates, a tape, 2022’s inward-looking Running In Waves, and Un/limited Love in 2023. Riley has collaborated with SBTRKT, Sampha, John FM, and Hudson Mohawke.

More Is More’s concept was shaped by ideas of excess: digital overwhelm, hyper-consumption, public image and the messy contradictions of desire. Riley reflected the thoughts she had on these themes via a vision of a woman replete with tensions: “she’s smart and owns a lot of books, but has she read all the books? She’s fashionable, but is it performative or actually authentic to her?” It’s part self-portrait, part satire – a caricature drawing from personal experience of relationships, temptation, ambition. It stemmed from “wanting more of everything, wanting more of my life, my career. Whatever success you have is never enough, there’s always something else.” That hunger – romantic, artistic, material – is threaded through the record with a winking irony.

Birthing the project during a quiet, year-long stretch where she wasn’t hitting typical career milestones, Riley paradoxically felt more liberated than ever. She chose to channel that by writing from the headspace of abundance. It was seeing “how these things can set women on a dark path” amid the rise of right-wing conservatism, whether that’s the tradwife boom or prominence of OnlyFans influencers. Riley interrogated her own feelings and desires as a woman, looking at her relationship with money and the societal pull of heteronormativity and marriage alongside a stacked list of production minds such as UK hitmaker Mura Masa, club legend Bok Bok, genre-shifting mainstay JD Reid and PinkPantheress collaborator phil.
