Marcus Santoro reimagines Anita Ward’s classic “Ring My Bell” through his signature progressive and afro house lens - blending deep tribal rhythms, warm percussion, and melodic textures that pulse with late-night energy. Premiered on Diplo’s Revolution and supported early by Sasson (FR), this rework is crafted for dancefloors that crave rhythm, soul, and sunrise moments.

Marcus Santoro, The Journey & James Slaz 'Pinnacle' available now - https://xelon.ffm.to/pinnacle

In a powerhouse collaboration straight from the heart of Melbourne's electronic scene, Marcus Santoro, The Journey, and James Slaz join forces for 'Pinnacle' - a euphoric club anthem set to drop July 25 on Resound Records.

Crafted entirely by Australian talent, 'Pinnacle' is a peak-time weapon that blends emotive melodic textures with deep, progressive drive. Built around the concept of reaching the top (both metaphorically and musically), the track captures the feeling of pushing through the climb and finally standing at the summit.

Marcus Santoro has cemented his reputation as one of Australia's most dynamic progressive and melodic house artists, with releases on iconic labels like Axtone, Armada, and Protocol. Known for his emotional, high-impact productions, his music has been championed by the likes of Swedish House Mafia, Black Coffee, BLOND:ISH, and Tiesto to name a few.

The Journey - the brainchild that is Tom Evans and Jacob Malmo - are a duo known for their rich, melodic soundscapes and immersive DJ sets. With appearances at Australia's biggest boutique festivals and releases via their own imprint UGENIUS Music, as well as Still Vor Talent, Bedrock, and Einemusika, they bring both underground credibility and artist finesse.

James Slaz is a seasoned music curator with over a decade of experience shaping up Melbourne's nightlife, being a familiar face along the infamous Chapel Street strip. Not just one to watch behind the decks, Slaz has a key involvement in the operations and programming of some of the city's favourite venues and events.

With its roots in Melbourne and its sights set on dance floors across the globe, 'Pinnacle' is a powerful statement from three artists who are all pushing forward, together.

Serve Cold, Grigoré and Jaguar Jaguar return to Defected with ‘LOW’, following the success of breakout label debut ‘Dancing’ in June 2025. Frequent collaborators Serve Cold and Grigoré first made music in 2024, inspired by the electronic soundscapes and neo-soul of artists like Jungle and Khruangbin. Together with Belgian band Jaguar Jaguar they debuted their fresh house record ‘Dancing’ on Defected Records in June 2025. The track was a breakout success, earning two million streams and two-thousand radio spins in under two months thanks to early support from the likes of Keinemusik, RÜFÜS DU SOL and Tripolism - the track also topped the Beatport Afro House chart for nearly two weeks after release. Now they build on their dreamlike dance sound with ‘LOW’, an acronym of “Love is the Only Way”. Drawing on their shared inspirations spanning world music and underground electronic, ‘LOW’ proves the staying power of Grigoré, Serve Cold and Jaguar Jaguar as good friends and musical collaborators with bubbling textures and dancefloor euphoria.
