House music rising star Jaden Thompson has unveiled his newly-launched record label Midnight Parade, also dropping its first single ‘Move Your Body’, out 5th November.

Juxtaposing a deep, grooving bassline with delicate vocals, ‘Move Your Body’ is a jackin’ house heater that captures the essence of golden-era Chicago. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Mr G, Omar S, Kerri Chandler and Derrick Carter, Midnight Parade will be a DIY creative platform for Jaden and like-minded artists to express themselves sonically.

“For me, starting a label feels like a natural progression as an artist, giving me an outlook to release music and champion other great sounds,” Jaden explains. “Midnight Parade is a label offering quality House music with a groove.”

‘Move Your Body’ follows on from ‘Only One’, a single that has amassed over 1 million streams, and the critically acclaimed ‘Closer’, a track that was crowned BBC Radio 1 ‘Tune of the Week’ by both Arielle Free and Nick Grimshaw, with Pete Tong naming it his ‘Essential New Tune’ on the same station. It also received high-profile remixes from The Martinez Brothers & Jesse Calosso, Derrick Carter, Higgo and Cinthie.

It’s been a busy summer on the road for Jaden, with gigging highlights including The Warehouse Project, Extrema Outdoor in Belgium, TRMNL in Birmingham & Classic in Italy, in addition to his residency at fabric London. Looking ahead, there’s eye-catching sets at Leeds’ Mint Warehouse (30th Oct), Circus in Liverpool and fabric (23rd Oct, 17th Dec) before the end of the year.

Still just 22-years-old, Swindon-born Jaden Thompson is one of the UK’s brightest electronic talents and accomplished what others would strive for in their entire careers, becoming a Fabric resident by 19, rubbing shoulders with The Martinez Brothers and making fans out of legends like Seth Troxler and Jamie Jones. What’s more, he’s already releasing music on esteemed electronic imprints such as Cuttin’ Headz, Archie Hamilton’s Moscow Records, PIV and anLuke Solomon's Classic Music.

The launch of Midnight Parade signifies the start of an exciting new chapter in the story of Jaden Thompson.

Having surged into the spotlight early with music dropping via The Martinez Brothers’ Cuttin’ Headz through to Classic Music Company, Jaden Thompson continues to showcase precisely why he’s one of the UK’s brightest talents. Now an established name, the fabric resident and Beatport NEXT ‘Class of 2022’ artist is stepping into the next stage of his career, collaborating with Seth Troxler for the duo’s ‘Talking Walls’ project while making his long-awaited DC10 debut and settling into his new role as a label boss. Launched in late 2021 via his huge single ‘Move Your Body’, Midnight Parade welcomes a new chapter for the Manchester-based talent and a platform for his own musical explorations alongside like-minded artists. Unveiling the imprint’s sophomore release, Thompson reunites with Miami-based vocalist Aaron Pfeiffer - the voice of previous Essential New Tune selection and stand-out single ‘Closer’ - for their first full studio collaboration as the pair deliver the vibrant sonics of ‘Something Else’.

Fusing a carefully balanced medley of hazy chords, crisp drums and expansive melodies alongside Pfeiffer’s delicate yet captivating vocals, ‘Something Else’ is an exemplary slice of modern house with subtle nods to Chicago and New York - with Thompson once again displaying his distinctive and now-signature take on the genre effortlessly.
