Angelo Ferreri - I DON'T // Groove People Records

Kicking things off for our first release of 2022 is someone we’ve been a fan of at Nothing Else Matters for a while now, Danish/Egyptian DJ, producer and vocalist, Ashibah, who debuts on Danny Howard’s imprint with brand new single, ‘Get 2 Know Me’. Having already taken South America by storm, Ashibah is making her mark on the international scene with her explosive DJ sets and expanding catalogue of club heat on an impressive list of labels including D4 D4NCE, Armada Subjekt, SOLOTOKO, Kittball, DFTD and This Never Happened. ‘Get 2 Know Me’ is an instant dancefloor hit, delivering an infectious and propulsive groove with entrancing vocals, driving House drums and funk-laden bass throughout.

German DJ and producer, Butch, makes his long overdue return to Nic Fanciulli's Saved Records imprint this summer with his brand new single, 'Same Like Dope But Different'. Having spent the last two decades honing and refining his sound, Butch has released on a remarkable list of well-established labels in the scene including Play It Say It, Cocoon, Diynamic, Moon Harbour, CircoLoco, DCLTD, Cecille and more. Few artists flow through genres and emotional landscapes with such ease and fluidity as Butch, challenging preconceptions of the dancefloor and the expected outcome in the process. As an artist, he's always allowed himself to express his take on each genre – it's true that with Butch, you never know what to expect, other than consistently fresh and unique output. 'Same Like Dope But Different' is a deep and tender eight-minute House opus, with hip-swaying drums, a warm, bubbling underlying groove, euphoric synth and chord work, uplifting percussion and an infectious, slow-blooming bassline; resulting in a rich, emotional track that brings something different to the dance floor. Expect to hear this everywhere this summer season!

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.

Play It Down brings together many of its veteran artists for the 100th release, which, in the current incarnation of the label, will also be its last.

A word from Jesse Rose:
“It’s been an amazing rollercoaster of a ride with Play It Down and when asked why I would stop releasing in its current incarnation the answer was obvious. I’ve always been very involved in the A&R process of all the releases. I’ve always felt confident to tell an artist if something should be taken out or added because I have spent (near enough) every weekend for the last two decades in a club, listening and playing House music. I would test the demos in my sets and know automatically what felt right and what felt wrong. If I’m not playing in clubs it wouldn’t feel right for me to tell someone who is playing shows every weekend how their record should sound. And ultimately, Play It Down for me has been about finding music I've wanted to play in my sets. So for the minute it’s a massive thank you to all the artists, fellow DJs, supporters, club-goers,
distributors, journalists, radio presenters, interns, promoters, bootleggers, and to Laura (who has worked day-in & day-out overseeing near every part of the label for the past five years) for letting us come up with dreams that all of you have helped make a reality.
This Play It Down 100 compilation album of original tracks brings back all the current roster to collaborate and a few tracks written solo by some of our key artists. It was a very enjoyable process to see what they would all come back with.”
