Katy on a Mission

"Katy on a Mission" is a song performed by British recording artist Katy B. It was released by Rinse accompanied by a b-side titled "Louder" as her debut single and lead single from her debut album, On a Mission, on 22 August 2010. The song was co-written by Benga, Katy B and Geeneus, and produced by Benga. Musically, the song is constructed around beats, synths and a bassline found most prominent in the dubstep music genre. It achieved charting success in the United Kingdom where it topped the UK Dance Chart and UK Indie Chart while peaking at number five on the UK Singles Chart. The single was accompanied by a music video which was directed by Johny Mourgue.

The song has since been certified Gold in the UK for selling over 400,000 copies, making it Katy B's first and only single so far to do so.

Background

Katy B had been working with British underground grime, garage and house record producers since the age of fifteen before debuting "Katy on a Mission" to her mainstream audience. The song, originally "just another dubstep track Katy was going to vocal," was written by Katy B and produced by British record producer, Benga. In an interview with Kieran Yates of The Guardian, Katy mentioned that as a producer Benga is above and beyond. She further acknowledged that without his beat, "Katy on a Mission" would have not been as successful. It was inspired by how Katy feels when she goes raving with her friends. Speaking to Greg Cochrane from the BBC, she explained:

Nyah

Nyah is a town in northern Victoria, Australia. The town is located on the Murray Valley Highway, in the Rural City of Swan Hill local government area, 365 kilometres (227 mi) north west of the state capital, Melbourne. At the 2011 census, Nyah had a population of 483.

The town, on the banks of the Murray River was formed as the "Taverner Community Village Settlement" in the 1890s by Jim Thwaites as a utopian socialist community, one of many established along the Murray, including Waikerie in South Australia. The communities were established in imitation of the New Australia settlement of William Lane in Paraguay. Lack of access to water for fields and a falling-out of favour of socialism led to the end of state support for these communities.

The Post Office opened on 4 May 1894 (though known as Tyntynder for some months)

The town in conjunction with neighbouring township Nyah West has an Australian Rules football team competing in the Central Murray Football League.

Nyah Harness Racing Club conducts regular meetings at its racetrack in the town.
