Landing on Toolroom, it’s a label debut for an upcoming Liverpool based DJ & Producer ESSEL, who makes her way onto the label in a big way with her debut single ‘Love Vibration’. 

A huge record for the emerging artist who, in the short space of time, has risen through the noise at breakneck speeds, turning heads, and dropping dance floor heaters alike. ‘Love Vibration’ is without a doubt a straight up House banger, with a stomping groove and funky bass line that’ll get any dance floor moving no matter what time it is.

So far, 2021 has seen ESSEL go from strength to strength, especially after the success of her hit ‘Running’ on Love & Other which saw the upcoming artist gain major support from streaming services and national radio, racking up over a million streams earlier this year. From residencies at Sankeys Ibiza, Eden & Ibiza Rocks Hotel to release to quality records on Love & Other, Toolroom Trax, Good Company Records and finally Toolroom, it’s clear that ESSEL isn’t letting up anytime soon. Is the sky the limit? Not for ESSEL that’s for sure, so make sure you get this one on repeat!

'Wrong With Us' came about in a frenzied session with Simian Mobile Disco at their studio in the English countryside. We started with some modular synths and went from there adding vocals, drums and other odd ends. In the end, we finished four songs in four days, and I couldn't have been happier with the results.

It's a reflection on the state of the world we live in today.

Wrong With Us (DJ Kicks Exclusive)

Aussie producer and a serious one-to-watch Kormak returns to DFTD with another two-track delivery of house heat, following the massive ‘Love On The Line’. With his DFTD debut continuing to receive support from radio tastemakers around the world, it’s no surprise his second release on the label has all the indicators of a future weapon. Title track ‘My Love For You’ opens the release with a strong start, where a thundering bassline and drums are paired with a gravelly vocal to create a real party-starter. ‘We Have Time’ sees Kormak collaborate with Sydney based Kamaliza to produce another summer stomper with an unwavering groove.

Following storming hits ‘Push Pull’, ‘Work It Out’ and ‘Somewhere Special’, rising star of Defected and house music maestro OFFAIAH returns to the label for his fourth output ‘Soldier’. Demonstrating his abilities in expansive, club-focussed house, ‘Soldier’ shows the breakout UK talent at his finest, as his signature bass-driven style comes into play with swirling pads and an earworm vocal to produce a slick club cut.

Dubbed Defected’s ‘secret weapon’ by label boss Simon Dunmore, Low Steppa’s ferocious DJ sets and club-focussed productions have earned him a reputation as an authority on dancefloor dynamics. Now, following a remix from house master Harry Romero, Low Steppa steps up to turn his hand at Jack Back & CeCe Roger’s thunderous cut ‘Freedom’ with two expertly crafted mixes. His first remix is an adrenaline fuelled, explosive and rave-ready cut that would fit seamlessly into one of the Defected resident’s sets. Up next his Boiling Point remix takes a more stripped back approach, with driving synths and percussive breaks.
