Still love this tune JB. Brought back the soul of house music back into my life when I first you play it :)

East-London's Riva Starr joins Defected's illustrious list of House Masters as he continues to establish himself as one of the world's top DJs and producers. Growing up surrounded by the rich musical culture of Southern Italy, Starr's influences come from all over; the sounds of Africa, Greece, Spain and the Balkans are ever-present within his revered house releases. Genre-wise his approach is similarly expansive, first falling for breakbeat after years of experimentation in Naples, before exploding onto the UK fidget and deep house scene in the noughties. Years later, the Snatch! owner's epic catalogue is brimming with the very best club music this side of the millennium, unrestricted by genre convention and bursting with eclectic samples and unpredictable references. This compilation features club belters alongside deeper cuts that seamlessly mix addictive vocal samples with hard-hitting house rhythms, as well as expert remixes and collaborations with fellow industry titans. Todd Terry, Mike Dunn, Groove Armada, Jocelyn Brown, Dennis Ferrer, Green Velvet, Harry Romero; the list of legendary artists that feature in Starr's eclectic discography is as endless as it is impressive, and throughout it all the Ibiza hitmaker maintains a signature sound that is distinctly Riva Starr.

Darius Syrossian's MOXY MUZIK builds on its early head of steam with another high quality release that proves peak time club music can have a real sense of soul. It comes from the boss himself with remixes from Tommy Vicari Jnr and Christian Burkhardt. This innovative new label launched to a great reception with the first EP from Darius Syrossian getting support by the likes of Laurent Garnier & many more djs including Derrick May on his recent Boiler room. The remixes from the likes of Man Power and East End Dubs were also well received. The label has also started a series of all night long tour nights around the UK and Europe, with the first three shows in London, Manchester & Leeds all being sold out shows.

For the labels 2nd release, Darius delivers yet another Dancefloor destroyer with lots of soul, this time with a Disco flavoured cut, the track 'Unnamed 3' was only five hours old when Eats Everything played it on his BBC Radio 1 Show. It was so fresh out the studio that it didn't even have a name and that is how it became to be called 'Unnamed 3' 

A deep sub bass & driving kicks power the track forward and crisp disco stabs littering the track in all the right places. Tommy Vicari Jnr is next to remix and is an artist with more than 15 years of experience of releasing on the best labels of the day to draw on. His timeless style reworks the track into a lush deep house affair with layered pads and hypnotic chords which give the track a dreamy feel. As such this is one of those trademark Tommy Vicari Jnr productions that oozes class, and it's one for those that like real house music. 

Next to remix is Christian Burkhardt, a long time tech tastemaker who has produced for labels such as Cocoon / Cuttin Headz / & many more quality underground labels including his own Christian Burkhardt Sessions. The obsessive producer shows his meticulous craft with a version that is on a more minimal vibe with slick drums and pounding kick drums that give a peak time set feel, but that retains the disco flavours enough to add some spice. This is another unique release from MOXY MUZIK that brings plenty of fresh ideas and lasting emotions to the dance floor.
