Stockholm based DJ & producer Sebjak cues up another juicy collaboration with fellow Swede, Fahlberg. Following recent club hits on MoBlack Records and Bibliotheque Records, the dynamic duo drop one serious summer anthem contender for Blond:ish’s ABRACADABRA imprint, with the single ‘Somebody’.

Already a staple in Blond:ish’s DJ sets, and picking up serious heat with the dancers, this breezy and heady house track builds steadily, setting the groove perfectly with galloping percussion before teasing in its main vocal hook, blasting this happy happy track into the stratosphere!

“The track was actually made over one and a half years ago, with no real intention to release it at first, we just loved the vocals and the concept around it. But after sending it out to some DJ friends and artists, Viv picked up on it, and when she started to play it, we noticed how many people were asking about it. The hype around the track began to live its own life and started to grow organically, and the amount of requests for this song became so many that we had to finally release it!”

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, Defected Records presents a series of extra special collaborative releases Together, integrating talent from the label’s storied past and the stars of its future. One of the OG Defected House Masters, Dennis Ferrer’s relationship with the iconic London label is checkpointed by a vast number of innovative originals, guiding house through many eras from soul and gospel to Afro and techno. Now renowned as one of the instantly recognisable anthems of modern house and the Defected catalogue, ‘Hey Hey’ receives two Afro house remixes from Jack Back and Da Capo & Kitty Amor. One of electronic music’s most recognisable artists, David Guetta created the Jack Back alias to return to his house roots, releasing the chart-topping Defected hit ‘(It Happens) Sometimes’ in 2018. His remix of Dennis Ferrer’s classic has been widely teased in his sets, including a DJ Mag livestream which resulted in a tidal wave of fan support; now the French titan presents the hotly anticipated ‘Hey Hey’, complete with pitched percussion steering us towards moments of tension and smooth, deep release. Up next on the package, South African producer Da Capo joins forces with a pioneer of the burgeoning UK Afro house scene, Mahaba Music label boss Kitty Amor. Together the pair create an unmissable take on the classic, presenting a brooding ‘Hey Hey’ that unfurls slowly to reveal growling, electronic rhythms that slice through the sound system with tenacity.
