Glaswegian tastemaker Arielle Free returns to Defected Records alongside multi-faceted Might Delete Later to deliver ‘Shy’. An accomplished DJ, producer and BBC broadcaster with a distinct house sonic, Arielle’s previous Defected release ‘Feels So Good’ was a 2023 standout, earning support from fellow BBC tastemakers Danny Howard and Jeremiah Asiamah. Her infectious sound has been heard widely across the UK and further afield, including sets at Defected’s biggest parties in 2024 – from their flagship festivals in Croatia and Malta to their open-air Ushuaïa Ibiza residency. For her latest club-ready release, Arielle is joined by Might Delete Later, a festival favourite and producer turning voicemails into music who has opened for Elderbrook, Moderat and Joy Anonymous and collaborated with Patrick Topping. Lyrically, ‘Shy’ is inspired by real confessions of insecurity and self-acceptance from an anonymous voicemail, per Might Delete Later’s unique process. Marking a fresh sonic approach for Arielle Free on Defected, the record utilises live instruments to support an uplifiting topline, creating a pepped-up dose of house that is sure to light up dancefloors and the airwaves alike.
