'His many years in the game having spoken for the people, ‘I Just Wanna Dance’ is Mendo nailing the thoughts of those kept away from the world’s dancefloors for too long. Mendo has been there, done that and got the t-shirt – and ‘I Just Wanna Dance’ is just the slogan to be seen wearing this year, six minutes of funky four-to-the-floor business with a tough bassline nodding to club classic ‘Been A Long Time’ (especially when everything drops out and files behind it). The sexiness and style of the vocals encourage you to bring your posse and crew, homing in on clubs and airwaves like a laser beam, all completed by Mendo’s trademark shuffles and shakes looking to spend hours in the sunshine.

One of the underground’s most requested remixers - Danny Tenaglia, Steve Lawler, Nina Kraviz, Damian Lazarus or Deadmau5 to name a few, all receiving his knowhow - Mendo has stamped his deep and funky techniques across some of the best electronic music labels going. From Hot-Creations to Crosstown Rebels, Defected to Moon Harbour, Desolat to Sola, as well as keeping Clarisse at the top of the league for 20 years, all have been boosted by the four-deck specialist who won’t stop supplying what worldwide crowds demand.'

Kaluki Music head Pirate Copy makes a long-awaited debut on Hot Creations this November with the three-track You Need It. Collaborating with rising vocalist Hattie Snooks, the release includes two remixes courtesy of US legend Harry Romero and Spanish mainstay Miane. 

“It’s a huge honour for me to make my debut on Hot Creations, a label I have admired since the very beginning. This track started as a studio jam during a dark winter in lockdown. I sent Hattie the dub, she wrote and sang the perfect vocal, then I sent JJ a personal message. He came straight back to say he was feeling it... and the rest is history!" - Pirate Copy. 

"It’s been a total joy working with both Pirate Copy and Hot Creations. The track has such a mesmeric quality and it conjured scenes in my head of a captivating but dangerous woman on the dancefloor – someone otherworldly and lost in dance, enchanting the crowd on the dancefloor around her." - Hattie Snooks 

The title track takes the form of a driving, 4x4 house cut, packed full of punchy percussion and resonant kick-hat pairings. Built for the dancefloor, Hattie Snooks’ enigmatic vocals whisper beneath a minimal-laced bassline, before Harry Romero’s remix arrives. The US stalwart serves up another no-nonsense offering, as a hard-edged bassline melds with flecks of acid throughout. Rounding off the release is Miane, whose tribal-leaning offering is sure to light up many a nightclub this year. 

Manchester’s Pirate Copy is a leading artist in today’s electronic music sphere. His discography boasts releases on some of the scene’s most revered imprints, including Sola, Relief, Elrow and Moon Harbour to name a few, whilst his own label, Kaluki, has become a bastion for contemporary house since its inception fifteen years ago. 

Harry Romero is a well-established figure on the worldwide music circuit, with recent productions landing on Crosstown Rebels, DIRTYBIRD and many more. Ibiza’s Miane is fast becoming a talked about talent in the industry, thanks to several appearances on major labels including Black Book, Repopulate Mars and Moon Harbour.

Rising UK talent Ben Sterling returns to Hot Creations with the Fantasee EP, a
stunning three track release that features a remix from house heavyweight
Jansons.

Title track Fantasee is a rolling house cut, with an infectious vocal and subtle
percussion that merges with driving pads to form a track that harks back to the early
days of house music. The Jansons’ remix comes next. Warm synths fuse with an
energy-fuelled “come on” lyric, whilst the tempo of the track rustles along quickly.
Following in a similar vein to Fantasee, second original track Melania Please rounds off
the EP where whispering vocals give way to a powerful kick drum, as a delicate bleep
chimes in the background to create another pumping house record.

Ben Sterling is quickly becoming a respected artist in the house music sphere. Named
as Danny Howard’s first Future Fire guest of the year on BBC Radio 1 in 2019, the
young star is influenced by his family’s 70-80s disco collection, modern electro, plus
Chicago house and Detroit techno. At just 18, his residency for Rulin’ at London’s
Ministry of Sound marked him out as one to watch. Jansons is no stranger to the
scene. Having remixed various records of Hot Creations mainstay Richy Ahmed, his
keen eye for production has lead him to release on Four Thirty Two and Knee Deep in
Sound.
