John Monkman - Fractured Fate, feat Liz Cass (Full Mix)

Lou Reed  - Walk On The Wild Side (John Monkman Tribute edit)

Here's a tribute I made on Sunday for a great man, the one and only Lou Reed. He's was one of my all time musical hero's. It's a sad time when a person leaves us and moves on to the next life. His music was and always will be a source of inspiration and joy to me and others. One thing is for certain, even though he's left us, his music never will.

R.I.P big guy.

John Monkman returns to Ellum Audio with a pair of well-crafted cosmic techno tracks.

London-based John Monkman is the founder of Beesemyer Music but also serves up his rich sounds on Kompakt, Last Night On Earth and Drumcode. He works across multiple styles and as much as making music for the club, he also cooks up richly atmospheric and emotive music. He has worked with Pete Tong, Bryan Ferry and Nile Rodgers and when on tour, he plays live in the world's best venues.
First up is the immediately arresting 'Perception' with its flashes of synth, whirring drones and textured drums. Spoken words bring a sense of paranoia as twitchy effects, icy percussion and swinging drums all work you into a frenzy. Monkman took inspiration from a Timothy Leary interview for the record envisioning “a phrase repeating with a synthesizer response, in essence a conversation between man & machine”.

Second cut 'Impulse' is a more groove-driven tune with kicks that rock back and forth under slapping hits. The synth designs are futuristic and the whole vibe is one of intergalactic exploration of the unknown.
Both of these hugely accomplished tracks will bring a scene of cinematic drama to any set.

Tracklist:

1. Perception
2. Impulse

John Monkman - Shadows Falling (Extended Mix)

Londoner John Monkman has an impressive musical CV, having worked with legends like Pete Tong and Bryan Ferry in the past. His Anjunadeep debut, “Open Frontier” follows acclaimed releases on Get Physical and Suara and features gorgeous vocals from long-time collaborator Liz Cass.

Full of atmosphere, “Open Frontier” is a deceptively languid affair, with Liz’s effortless vocals drifting above a beautiful chugging groove packed full of heady, melancholic melodies. Assured vocoder work adds a leftfield touch, whilst the sparingly used low-end packs a real punch.

Bristolian up-and-comers Behling & Simpson have been on our radar for some time, with some cracking releases on Futureboogie, Exploited and 2020 Vision catching our attention. They deliver two killer mixes of John’s original, a sprawling, almost epic ‘Deep Mix’ and a ‘Club Dub, that ups the energy whist maintaining the trippy vibe captured in the deeper version.

ALPHA - Out now - https://ffm.to/johnmonkman

Alpha is my first release on Henri Bergmann’s Automatik imprint, and it’s a track that came from getting lost in shifting rhythms and tension-driven grooves. I wanted to make something that feels hypnotic and always moving, something that pulls you into the low end and keeps you there. It carries a lot of the UK textures that shaped me and sits in that space between raw energy and control. Grateful to share this one with you, and excited for it to finally be out in the world. Let me know how it hits you on the floor.

Did a 30-minute mix for M1 Dance in Lithuania.

The mix features a few of my recent releases alongside some tracks I’ve been enjoying playing in my sets lately. I also slipped in one unreleased ID.

Curious if anyone spots which one it is.

Sam Frankl - Macondo (John Monkman Remix)

UK talent John Monkman is the next to make his mark on Crosstown Rebel sub-label Rebellion, with the rapturous two tracker ​EPOCH.

BOOK John Monkman --> bookings@blueprintartists.com

"EPOCH began its journey after a recent show in Goa, India. I wanted the track to almost tare itself apart, forever pushing forward carving out new sonic landscapes. XAILO is comprised of layer upon layer of syncopated xylophone, bells and string section held together with a haunting Icelandic vocal I recorded in London." - John Monkman

John Monkman shot firmly into the limelight in 2015 with his collaboration with Pete Tong, plus a remix of Solomon Grey’s Twilight, which topped the Beatport charts reaching #1. He has since gone on to do more collaborations with Pete Tong and released on some the world’s biggest and most cutting-edge labels including Kompakt, Crosstown Rebels and Get Physical, which have all received high critical acclaim and support across the board. 2016 also saw him launch his own label Beesemyer Music. 2017 will be a standout year for Monkman, with music already signed to Rebellion, Crosstown Rebels, Noir and the fourth collaboration with Pete Tong in the pipeline. Expect to see big things from this London-based artist.

John Monkman -  The Heat, feat Liz Cass (Summer Mix)

Get Physical release notes: 

John Monkman is no newbie to audio, and if you don't know how far his touch reaches, then you should probably sit back and ask yourself where you've been the last few years. Now we've got a piece of his latest work for you 'Follow Me' featuring the lovely vocals of Liz Cass. 'Follow Me' is a groove-stew of cool bass and crisp percussion flowing freely over the dancefloor. Liz Cass' vocal lines grace the track and float beautifully between the different parts. John has captured the sound of his soul and put it in this track. Play it on a full dancefloor and watch the audience peak. We've also got the Accapella and Dub versions for even more versatility on the dancefloor.

VINYL EXCLUSIVE : DIGITAL RELEASE TOWARDS THE END OF THE MONTH

We are delighted to welcome our Londoner friend John Monkman for our first vinyl release. John Monkman delivers some serious quality deep house vibes for his debut release on Kote.. This Ep raises his game with three tracks taking in funky basslines, deep-house vibes and inventive, smooth flowing arrangements. 
John Monkman’s record kicks off with the anthemic “K.I.S.S. M.E. feat. Morgan Mackintosh”. An uncharacteristically uplifting track that combines a freestyle bassline with gated 80’s drum sounds and amazing vocals by Morgan Mackintosh… 
B1 Jessica is a very special track, the descending organ riff, almost an acid house motif gives it an anthemic quality. The “You and Me” vocal offers just as much hook as it needs to be. 
B2 is a late night sleaze for the well-tuned dancefloor or the perfect track to help the crowd find its footing during the opening hour. The entire seven minutes ooze with polished future-house bass and the tracks being championed by top tier talent worldwide. Disco lasers and vocal snippets douse the track with a modern sheen we’ve heard in works from seasoned house vets, but John Monkman concoct his own chart-topping take on his debut.

All Inquiries - Claire @ beesemyermusic.com

John Monkman stands at the forefront of the global electronic music scene. Known for his dynamic performances and cutting-edge studio productions, Monkman has earned a reputation as both a live music pioneer and a master of sound design.

Affiliated with some of the most prestigious labels in electronic music, including Kompakt, Ellum, Beesemyer Music, Siamese, and Anjunadeep, Monkman delivered the spellbinding track Siren for Kompakt and collaborated with Pete Tong on Ecstasis for Maceo Plex's Ellum Audio. His releases, such as the Komplex EP on Anjunadeep and the versatile Tune In Turn On EP for Ellum, highlight his remarkable range. With two Beatport number ones—his remix of Solomon Grey's Twilight and his single Don’t Have to Be Beautiful—Monkman has further cemented his influence on the global electronic music scene.

Equally compelling is Monkman’s remix portfolio. His remix of U Love for Sasha’s LNOE 100th release, supported by Patrice Bäumel and Sasha, showcases his creative versatility. His rework of Space Date by Adam Beyer and Green Velvet for Drumcode demonstrates the respect he commands within the industry. Monkman has also been remixed by Moby. In 2023, he reunited with Pete Tong for an official remix of Duran Duran's Give It Up, marking another standout moment in his career.

On the live stage, Monkman’s impact is undeniable. He has headlined festivals like the UK’s Noisily Festival, brought his live set to the Ozora Festival in Hungary, and performed at the Anjunadeep Festival in Albania. His recent achievements include headlining Rainbow Serpent 2021. The debut of John Monkman: Live at Coachella 2018 with The DoLab was a pivotal moment, revealing his innovative approach to live performance.

The year 2024 has been a defining chapter for Monkman. His latest live show, Pulse, premiered in Paris through a collaboration with Collectif Scale, breaking new ground with its kinetic light art installation. Filmed in a Paris warehouse on July 6th, this show delivers an immersive audiovisual experience that pushes creative boundaries. In the same year, Monkman released Khord on Anjunadeep, followed by three singles—Vader, Roller Vox, and MAYA—on Beesemyer Music.

Continuously evolving as both a performer and a producer, John Monkman remains a driving force in the electronic music landscape, with his innovative studio work and electrifying live shows securing his position as a leading figure in the scene.
