When Radio 1’s Danny Howard brought his Lockdown Linkup series to the world in 2020, he set about teaming up the world’s leading dance producers for a collection of collaborations. Among those was ‘Whisper’, the product of long-time friend of Defected Dennis Ferrer and South London trio Disciples, who made a powerful and perhaps unexpected transatlantic partnership. Quickly catching the attention of Simon Dunmore, ‘Whisper’ was signed to Defected, who now commission red-hot remixes from heavy hitters of the house scene. Chicago’s man-of-the-moment John Summit takes on the assignment with ease, injecting the record with a hefty dose of club muscle that moves away from the ethereal sound of the original. A record that would comfortably sit in the Windy City star’s high-energy DJ sets, there is no doubt this mix will take this lockdown heater into its next phase, as dancefloors reopen across the globe.

After a long wait Nomadas is finally here. After all these amazing years of non-stop traveling, calling the world our home, Nomadas our first artist album has been born. So many of our experiences and adventures are finally told on a long play format for you our fans, listeners, and supporters. Nomadas was conceived as a listening experience more than a collection of dance floor tracks, an inner trip to our deep and ethnic roots exploring new musical landscapes and vocal collaborations unknown for us. We hope that you guys enjoy this musical experience as much as we did.

Long-time friend of Defected and certified house legend Sandy Rivera flexes his club banger credentials in this soft but tough new track. Otherwise known as Kings Of Tomorrow, Sandy’s fruitful two-decade-long history with Defected is well known, and long may it continue when the relationship brings forth gems like this. ‘Try A Little Tenderness’ features Sandy’s obligatory commanding vocal hook, accompanied by a snarling, earth-shuddering bass. Unassuming but destined to do some serious damage across the summer and beyond – get this in your playlists immediately.

**OUT NOW ACROSS ALL STREAMING AND DOWNLOAD PLATFORMS**

Influential British house DJ-producer Scott Diaz tees up a striking release that mixes the key ingredients of his career success to date more potently than ever. For Diaz, it’s all about soul, rawness and artistic integrity – about making real electronic music to move real people. As Life On The Outside exemplifies, that means connecting with music lovers across divides. This latest work reflects its creator’s feeling of not belonging to any one particular ‘house’ and of producing between genre lines as his head and heart instructs. Such honesty and openness is bang on for a world, today, where sounds continue to blur and anything is possible.

This extended EP is only the fifth release for Scott’s Brighton-based imprint Grand Plans since it opened for business in 2016. But that’s testament to the artist wanting a label that operates with true purpose and doesn’t just seek to make up the numbers. As the name suggests, Grand Plans is all about meaningful music-craft and big picture-thinking, and Life On The Outside is clearly the next, wave-making step on that journey. Here is a body of work set to outlast the regular electronic promo cycle - communicating the artist’s real feelings and emotions, and taking the listener on an altogether deeper, more profound dancefloor journey.

Opening cut Happiness Is The Truth provides compulsive early momentum, a slinky groove driven by swinging drums, snappy robo-key riffs, pert bassline and the slightest, expertly applied dash of UK garage. There is similar snap ‘n’ bounce to What You Do 2 Me, Diaz’s use of funky bottom-end and skippy, immaculately-programmed beats working brilliantly with those soulful keys and swirls of synth to create a suitably giddy, head-turning flow.
 
The album’s title track takes things deeper and plays to the career-long love Scott has had for jazzier, more introspective soundtracking. His smart interplay of synths, organs and gospel refrains across a subtle melody line is reflective yet uplifting, and delivers considerable emotional punch. I Once Was Lost, meanwhile, tingles spines and elevates minds by layering spiritual vocals (from the Amazing Grace hymn book), stirring strings and snatches of trumpet atop another fizzing hi-hat-led slice of house gorgeousness.

Song For Kelly treads tribal paths with deep swing and smoulder, a thoroughly hypnotic ride counterbalancing its muscular throb later on with the skilful introduction of delicate jazz key solos, piano play and xylophone loops. As the track’s vocal parts plead, this is truly eye-opening stuff. Heartbreaker, meanwhile, manages to be both moody and melancholic whilst soaring upon edgy synthesizers and dizzying vocal samples - an appropriately intense nod to the turmoil of love lost. EP closer Girlfriend is an elegant, upbeat finale, working piano and percussion around its 4-4 framework to fine effect with, as we’ve come to expect, buckets of feeling.

On a Beach

On A Beach (Champion Remix)

Right place, right time. It's an old cliché, but it's one that's been the definition of Dennis Ferrer's musical career. Just as the dance music world was heading into the world of afro-centric house, Ferrer was there. And then, when it began to embrace the mix of tech and soul, Ferrer was there again, leading the way with his impeccable productions. As Ferrer goes, it seems, so does electronic music. And, as someone who's never content to do the same thing twice, it's clear that he'll be staying on top for years to come.

Ferrer burst back into the consciousness of most dance music heads with the release of "Sandcastles," (Ibadan) his collaboration with Jerome Sydenham in 2003. But, to his credit, Ferrer didn't simply repeat the formula afterwards. He has continued to push a variety of genres all at once. It's clear that Ferrer isn't content to rest on his laurels: he's too busy dreaming up new ways to shock and delight audiences.

In the mid-90’s, Ferrer was crafting techno records as Morph and then had success in the Afro and gospel house scenes with releases via his Sfere label, an imprint he began alongside Kerri Chandler. But it's this past work that gives his new productions such resonance: unlike many of this house peers, Ferrer's techno experience has given him an edge that you can hear in his recent work.

"Son of Raw," (Ibadan) "Church Lady," (Defected) "Underground Is My Home," (King Street Sounds), "Touched the Sky" (King Street Sounds), “Transitions” (King Street Sounds), “P 2 Da J” (Defected),  “Sinfonia Della Notte” (Strictly Rhythm), “Hey Hey” (Objektivity), “Red Room” (Objektivity), “Underground” Nick Curly – Dennis Ferrer Remix (Defected), to name a few, have all been huge dance floor anthems and all show a different side of the Ferrer personality as well as his impressive range as producer and remixer.

Ferrer has brought his ‘anything goes’ approach to his label, Objektivity.  Celebrating its 8th anniversary in 2014, the imprint has thus far focused itself on vocals, featuring often unlikely turns from indie heroes like Ane Brun and Télépopmusik. Low slung and deep, Objektivity is a cutting-edge label in touch with its time, putting a uniquely American spin on the deep house revival that is currently making waves in Europe. Objektivity is a living, breathing thing - one that's set to drop bombs on the dance floor for years to come.

While Ferrer closes out 2013 with “Mind Ur Step” (Defected), “Mind Ur Dub” (Objektivity) and a remix of Coyu - “Salvation” (Noir Music), the best is yet to come. With a deep knowledge of the past and a constant push for the future, Ferrer remains one of the true greats of house music - a leader and innovator whose enjoying the buzz around him but keeping on pushing the limits. Stay tuned.
