A collaboration between two talents who initially broke through on the White Isle several years ago, Jamie Jones and Darius Syrossian deliver the We Bring It EP on Jones’ seminal label Hot Creations. It’s not the first time the duo have co-produced together, with previous releases like Rushing and Eyes Of The Night displaying their dynamic approach. Their latest release brims with bright melodies and club-driven energy. 

Syrossian shines a light on his creative partnership with Jones. "It's always a pleasure doing collabs with Jamie. He has a very good ear for dancefloor-orientated tracks, and I love his attention to detail when it comes to structuring a track. We both bounce off each other really well." Syrossian admits that both tracks have been rinsed already, much to the delight of discernible dancefloors worldwide. "Both these tracks have equal elements of our individual sound. We made these a while ago but held them back as they were made especially for the Ibiza and festival season. After playing them at the beginning of the season, they have more than passed the road test." 

The title tune unfurls with chunky kickdrums and a chopped-up, speedy vocal sample that winds between a thwacking bassline. A touch of tribal percussion bounces throughout the track, reflecting the Balearic vibe for which Jones and Syrossian are celebrated. On The Best Thing, a stabby synthline breaks up a wavey and tripped-out soundscape. A vast bassline dominates, with a rave-ready feel that shimmers throughout the track. 

Jamie Jones is the co-founder of the label Hot Creations and the worldwide event series Paradise. The Welsh DJ, producer and curator-extraordinaire lives in Ibiza, where the essence of the island contributes to his atmospheric and club-driven musical output. Jones’ signature style conveys a sun-kissed, spirited mood that compels his audience, whether he’s headlining Coachella or Glastonbury. Darius Syrossian is a trail-blazing artist with a back catalogue to match. The two-time Essential Mix talent has released on labels like Moan, Defected and his own brainchild MOXY MUZIK. He’s a cherished name on the Ibiza and UK circuit, pouring his soul into his work while holding down several residencies along the way. Syrossian cares about good music and even better vibes, giving back to the culture that shaped him as an artist today.

Italian DJ and producer Francis De Simone debuts on Lee Foss and Jamie Jones' label Hot Creations with London Bass. Having built a solid back catalogue in recent years, his first Hot Creations release embodies the dynamic sound of the Palermo-born artist, channelling chunky tech house and disco-flavoured melodies. 

De Simone explains his creative thinking behind the EP. "These tracks fully express my devotion to music. I ranged a lot, trying to remember an 80's sound up to a more raw and synthetic groove with Latin vocals to embrace the different ethnic groups." Reflecting his thoughts to a tee, the title track rumbles with a massive bassline and chopped-up vocals that add an instant burst of energy. Things get weird on Saludos A Todos, as thumping kickdrums collide with a trippy melody and even trippier vocals, creating a wavey atmosphere. The ideal club curveball. On Off White, De Simone delivers a pacey number packed with burbling beats and clicky percussion, complemented by dreamy vocals. The hint is in the name on closing track, This Is Undergound. A big room delight, De Simone drops a stripped-back banger, where the lyrics do the talking in tandem with a driving bassline. An excellent addition to the Hot Creations discography. 

Based in Palermo, Italy, Francis De Simone stems from a family of musicians. Having played the drums from age two, the versatile artist can make anything from rock, pop and jazz, but these days, De Simone pens electronic music. His father worked as a bouncer for various local discos and exposed De Simone to dance music from a young age, later inspiring him to produce house and techno with an uplifting tint. 

Releases on Glasgow Underground, LW Recordings and REALM Records have helped shape the profile of this flourishing artist, with plenty more to come further down the line.

After surging into the spotlight in 2022 via a series of high-profile collaborations alongside Lee Foss, CID, and Martin Ikin, UK-based DJ/producer Joshwa is looking to keep things moving for 2023 as an artist at the top end of Beatport’s top-selling tech house charts. Up next, late March brings a milestone release as he steps out on Hot Creations for the first time, delivering a pair of heavily requested and lively productions across his ‘Bass Go Boom’ EP.

“BOOM. The ID you’ve all been waiting on - anyone that knows me or has heard a set recently knows this is a staple and marks the next stage of evolution of my sound; ecstatic for it be dropping on Jamie’s Hot Creations.” - Joshwa.

A boisterous and low-end heavy production loaded with vocal samples and spiralling synths, ‘Bass Go Boom’ is a rough and ready unapologetic anthem charged full of energy destined for peak time use, while ‘Supersonic’ offers a slightly paired-back alternative guided by rolling drums, and vibrant glitches and pops.

Joshwa ‘Bass Go Boom’ drops via Hot Creations on 24th March 2023.

wAFF makes a triumphant return to Hot Creations after a seven-year hiatus with his three-track, groove-driven ‘Slapfunk EP’. 

Since his first outing back in 2012, wAFF has been an integral part of the Hot Creations family, remixing various releases and dropping a total of four EPs - the last being ‘Sick Pleasure’ in 2016, which still stands today as a highlight in the label’s extensive catalogue. Marking a long-awaited return to Jamie Jones and Lee Foss’ beloved imprint after seven years, with material via renowned labels such as Solid Grooves, Cocoon, Desolat and his very own NATURE imprint over that period further establishing him as a leading name, he arrives fresh from his third Paradise show of the season ready to ignite dancefloors with a trio of irresistible beats on ‘Slapfunk’. A project inspired following a night soundtracked by the Amsterdam collective, he notes “I originally made this EP after I’d been to Slapfunk in Amsterdam, and looked to create a track I thought would go down well there”. 

Title track ‘Slapfunk’ opens the release with shifting stabs, warping bass patterns and fizzing lead synths, steadily progressing into a menacing club-focused workout. Continuing his signature style, ‘Questions’ showcases a blend of pulsating beats synchronised with a warped vocal topline that enhances the allure. Finally, ‘Next Game’ delivers a punchy trip loaded with subtle minimal-leaning influences, combining chopped vocal snippets with slick, stripped-back percussion. 

wAFF ‘Slapfunk EP’ drops via Hot Creations on 8th September 2023.

Carloh makes his long-awaited return to Hot Creations as he releases his ‘Quisiera Tenerte’ EP. The Ecuadorian talent returns to Jamie Jones and Lee Foss’ imprint six years on from his label debut with two bubbling house numbers, set for release on 28th June 2024. 

Carloh has risen through the ranks of Ecuador’s electronic music scene with standout releases on Revival New York, Solid Grooves Raw, and SB Recordings over recent years. Receiving praise from heavyweights like Michael Bibi, Loco Dice, and Wade, he has become a firm favourite with clubbers thanks to his vibrant, Latin-infused sets. Marking his return to Hot Creations following his kicking ‘Sound Pump’ EP in 2018 and his three-track ‘Ritmo Rico’ EP on sister label Hottrax, he now presents ‘Quisiera Tenerta’ - showcasing the soulful rhythms of his South American roots.
 
“Quisiera Tenerte’ and ‘Samba Mambo’ are inspired by Latin music. As someone originally from Ecuador, the musical concept fuses the Spanish music I carry in my veins while transporting listeners to the past, to the era when house music was created with samplers and drum machine loops. With these tracks, I bring you the Latin flavour while refreshing the idea and methods of old-school sampling in house music.” - Carloh 

‘Quisiera Tenerte’ is a magnetic dancefloor filler, pulsing with a lively groove and dripped in resonant basslines, groove-led percussion, and vocals that draw you in. Up next is the modular jam of ‘Samba Mambo’, with its menacing chopped vocals, glitchy textures and weighty low-ends shaping up the package.

A multi-talented figure in the global house landscape, Amsterdam’s M-High has emerged from his ‘one to watch’ tips from a long list of key players in the industry. His growing sound has seen the Dutchman take in a wider range of influences from minimal through to electro, leading to releases on LOCUS, You&Me, and Djebali, amongst others. Following his heavily requested anthem ‘Devil’, the young talent stands out again as he makes his Hot Creations debut with a trip through futuristic basslines and silky, smooth house rhythms across his four-tracker, ‘Search 4 Pleasure’.

“A release on Hot Creations—what a moment for me! Huge shoutout to Jamie Jones for believing in my music and picking the tracks for this EP. I recall discovering countless tracks with the iconic palm tree artwork when I first started with music. It’s thrilling to see my own name alongside that same palm tree almost a decade later—a
surreal realization. This EP features four tracks that have been highlights in my DJ sets this past year, and I’m excited about the early support they’ve received. I can’t wait for you to experience the energy poured into this project. See you on the dance floor at one of the Paradise parties soon!” - M-High.

Up first, ‘Taste It’ merges acidic tones and sci-fi grooves that playfully dance over flickering stabs and lush, soulful vocals. Next, 'This ‘N That’ delivers thudding kicks and swirling sirens that lock you into its relentless breakbeat groove, while ‘Hello You’ harnesses an infectious bassline with assertive percussion and electro-tinged melodies. To close, ‘Search 4 Pleasure’ continues to bring the energy as sparking synths and robotic vocals go to work to shape up the EP in style.

M-High ‘Search 4 Pleasure’ drops via Hot Creations on 13th September 2024.
