Bio
The Musical journey
Hardcore will never die!!
Canastria is the artist name of Marty Noye a father of two who started his love of electronic music in the 1980s when New Order released the EDM classic 'Blue Monday' in 1983.
By the time he'd come of age in 1989, growing up in Cornwall, acts such as Inner City & Black Box cemented his love of House/Dance and Technotronic, his love for Techno. He also had a deep love for the Acid Hous, Activ8 by Altern8 was a firm favourite.
In the early 90s whilst in the British Army spending two years stationed in Northern Germany, he frequented the clubs of Hannover and Bielefeld and his love for Tech House was cemented. For a time he had a love for Happy Hardcore
By the mid 90s he had left the army and found himself living in Torquay in Devon. Frequenting 'The Monastery' night club. Euphoric trance was his love at that point.
By 2001, he began his family and his focus became work and raising his children. He never lost his love for EDM and always found time for the Essential Selection, Ibiza House and Tech House.
With both his children reaching adulthood by 2022, on January 1st 2024 he set his sights on achieving an ambition sparked in 2000 when he bought a PlayStation 1 game 'Music 2000' a music production game.
He downloaded Ableton 11 and has grown his following on SoundCloud to over a thousand followers with over 30 tracks, including remixes of little known rising stars in the production arena.
Canastria subtly blends different genres into a Tech House style of music. He also loves to produce Techno and the occasional Dance & Acid House tracks.
The Viral Success of Gabriella Rose’s “Doublewide” and How I Accidentally Remixed It into a minor success story
WHY remixing can work
Back in mid-November 2024, singer-songwriter Gabriella Rose posted a short acoustic clip on TikTok with the caption “here’s a ridiculous one I wrote called double wide :)”. What she called ridiculous turned into one of the biggest independent country viral hits of the year. The 36-second snippet exploded, racking up over 45 million views on her original post alone, inspiring thousands of user videos and a wave of love for its foot-stomping twang, cheeky lyrics like “I like my trailer like you like your women, ooh, double-wide,” and pure nostalgic country vibes. Bonfires, Lucchese boots, Jesus on the dash, everything country and unashamed of it.
The buzz came quick: CMT-nominated duo ‘Tigirlily Gold’ dropped a “Wowieeeee!!!!!!” comment, songwriter Julia DiGrazia offered to fiddle on it, and even Lucchese boots reached out offering custom pairs if she released it (they said they were singing it in the office nonstop). Gabriella stayed true to the moment and dropped the full track soon after as the lead single on her five-song EP Wait Til I Get My Money Up (December 4, 2024), produced with Emily Weisband and Mike Elizondo. It kept that raw, redneck spirit while adding pro polish.
By early 2026, “Doublewide” has amassed around 28 million Spotify streams, helping the EP gain serious traction. Gabriella’s hit the “Ones to Watch 2025” lists, played her first Nashville show at Fox & Locke in January 2025 (which sold out!), and toured with J.R. Carroll on the Hometown Hero run.
From a fun demo to brand collabs, packed venues, and millions of streams, the song showed that authentic, personality packed country still wins big when it feels like a genuine backyard sing-along gone global.
The track’s viral energy also sparked fan creations, including my own remix on SoundCloud. I only made the remix of “Doublewide” quite by accident. While scrolling TikTok, I stumbled across Elly May’s acoustic take on the opening verses. Her vocal was exceptional, and the original song’s vibe fit perfectly into an electro/country sound. I blended her vocals into an upbeat electronic twist, uploaded it as “Gabriella Rose - Doublewide Ft. Elly May” around five months ago, and it’s been getting steady plays and likes every single day since—currently sitting at over 2,500 plays and 800+ likes with strong daily engagement (a 30% likes/play ratio is unheard of for me, my previous best not quite getting to 20%).
Not only is the original track killer and Elly May’s vocal right there, but the high-energy fusion just clicks. For any new producer out there, if you spot someone redoing a famous track (like Elly May’s acoustic version), remix it into something that resonates, and you could be onto a winner. Plus, transforming it this way helps avoid potential copyright issues if it blows up big.
I’ve reached out to Elly May a few times (she’s got around 50k followers on TikTok, so I’m guessing notifications are overwhelming), but no luck yet. I’d love for her to hear the remix and know it exists—shoutout if you see this, Elly!
Gabriella Rose didn’t chase the viral wave; she rode it with pure gratitude and no ego. Her success, plus the creative spins fans like me added, proves authentic voices and fun remixes keep country (and beyond) exciting in 2026.
God is good, indeed.
