British icon, DJ and actor Idris Elba returns to Defected with the fiery house heater ‘La Trumpeta’. The homegrown DJ turned global A-lister first released with the label in 2020 with ‘No More Looking Back’ in collaboration with Inner City, and in the following years the demand for more Idris culminated in headline slots at Defected’s events at The Warehouse Project and Miami Music Week. This new single comes hot on the heels of his remix of ‘The Cure & The Cause’, adding significant Afro electronic flair to the 2006 Defected anthem. Now he unveils his first solo original track with the London label, ‘La Trumpeta’, showcasing Idris’ signature global sound in full force; a powerful Latin trumpet solo dominates, signalling the arrival of pounding four on the floor breakdowns that have major club appeal. Expect more to come from the powerhouse pairing that is Defected and Idris in 2024.

Mark Maxwell and SteV Obsidian are back, following up their earlier hit "Don't Change (The Channel)", with their latest offering, "Free". An uplifting feel good tune, the record is all about shining a light on dark times and focusing on what's good in life -- music. Mark has been getting props recently from industry heavyweights such as Roger Sanchez and has once again provided top notch production, inspired from the driving piano house of the early 2000s. Mark and the Hot Sunday crew have been road testing the extended mix across Australia, including Elsewhere (Gold Coast), Prohibition (Brisbane), Old Soul (QLD), Onesixone (Melbourne), and have been getting great reactions. This one is tried, tested, and dance floor approved. 

To top it off, we have secured our favourite producers, Stephen Nicholls, Sondrio, Artfunk & Rosie Kate on Remix duties. Stephen Nicholls creates a prime time monster cut, while Sondrio brings his classic uniqueness to create an almost original record from SteV's vocals. Artfunk hits you with a tech-house groover and Rosie Kate shows us her quirkly side with a fun flip. 

"There's magic in joy, and that's what this song promotes, self love and the joy in that. Free yourself from doubt or fear, anything holding you from doing what you want to do and being, You." SteV Obsidian

Queensland-born, now calling Adelaide home, Mark Maxwell has carved out a distinctive sonic identity that masterfully weaves disco, house, and tech house with Latin and Afro influences. His sets are a dynamic fusion of global rhythms, crafted through an innovative use of loops and acapellas that transform each performance into an unrepeatable moment of collective joy.

Drawing inspiration from genre-bending taste-makers like Barry Can't Swim, Folamour, and Honey Dijon, Mark's approach to DJing transcends conventional boundaries while maintaining an unwavering focus on what matters most – keeping the dancefloor moving and faces smiling. This distinctive style has earned him spots alongside industry titans including Sam Divine, Roger Sanchez, Nora En Pure, and Sandy Rivera, while gracing the decks at legendary venues like Revolver Upstairs, elsewhere, and Club Above.

In the studio, Mark channels the energy of production heavyweights like PAWSA, Chris Lake, and Jamie Jones into his own unique sound. His originals and remixes for Dillon Francis, Odd Mob, and Crooked Colours have caught the attention of global tastemakers, with support flowing from Idris Elba, Solardo, and Gene Farris. His original productions have made serious waves – from the soul-stirring 'Wade In The Water' (1.2M+ streams) to the chart-dominating 'Santorini' (#1 ARIA Club Chart, 1.3M+ streams) and the unstoppable 'Tracey In My Room' (#1 ARIA Club Chart, #2 Traxsource Overall Chart).

As his sound continues to evolve and reach new audiences across Australia, Mark remains committed to a simple yet powerful mission: creating music that feels good and spreads joy, one beat at a time.
