My remix of Yousef! Defected writes..

"Circus founder Yousef celebrates a hat trick as he unleashes his third release with Defected to the masses. A sure-fire club hit from the mind behind ‘Beg’ whose previous releases have all seen such significant success that they have earned the Liverpudlian a reputation that is second to none. ‘I See’ is a powerfully emotive cut built around Charli Taft’s beautifully melancholic voice which this talented producer coalesces with warm melodic synths and a creative usage of brass samples accomplishing a delightfully enchanting outcome. Shadow Child provides his own unique spin to the track by fashioning Taft’s vocals around the signature Dirtybird inimitability, in this case an orchestral build up into a thudding lo-fi bassy hook accompanied by his distinctively energetic usage of hats and snare. On the other hand the rendition by The Crooked Man layers various sounds into a complicated brew of wonky and dark elements that exhibits the imaginative creativity of such an experienced and longstanding producer.

Knee deep into his second decade of dance, Yousef remains one of the globes most exciting talents in the realm of modern rave. His career has evolved and stayed true to the shifting sands of the game; he stood out when he arrived on the scene because of his jaw-dropping technical savvy, and as the years have progressed he's added the multi-faceted strings of club promoter, label owner and deftly talented producer to his bow. 'Beg' is a powerful, driving, groove-led club excursion which harnesses the passion and energy Yousef injects into both his live sets and his productions. Sleek and frenetic with delicate touches of melody and husky vocal interjections, 'Beg' has been a staple record for Yousef over the last few months and continues to do serious damage on the dancefloor. On the remix front, burgeoning UK producer Hot Since 82 delivers a truly exceptional reworking. Since breaking onto the scene with his Hot Jams Vol.1 on Noir Music earlier in the year he has continued to impress, and this remix is typical of his production style. Creepingly enticing atmospherics are backed up with hefty amounts of low-end thump for an effortlessly chic reinterpretation of the original record.

Yousef - Beg (Original &  Hot Since 82 Mix)

Released: 15.04.13

The man behind Circus recordings delivers another poignantly penned vocal cut with the follow up to 'Beg', featuring the soothing and heartfelt vocals of Alexander East. Set against a backdrop of melodic and melancholic synths, the down tempo percussion and intermittent nostalgic piano loop cleverly compliment the self reflective lyrics, helping Yousef tell his emotive story of hope and self esteem. This is another sophisticated, multifaceted cut, designed just as much for the dance floor as it is a genuine narrative, once again exemplifying his intelligent and refined production skills.

In stark contrast the Catz 'n Dogz remix couldn't be any further from the original, the vocal having been stripped away leaving it devoid of its former emotion. Instead the intricate fusion of percussive sounds and experimental patterning of breakdowns, coupled with a thumping 'in yer face' bass line and low end reverberating synths, make it an ideal track for getting down and dirty. To complete the package is Fred Everything's Lazy Vox Remix is a more obvious and straight up club ready reworking of the original with its up tempo rhythms, dynamic bassline and chopped up vocals. And with Fred Everything's Lazy Dub thrown in for good measure this is, in short, a perfect party package.

Already attracting huge attention, the epic ‘Float Away’ will elevate you on a journey through sweeping synths and rolling grooves, with highly captivating vocals and an infectious warm melody sitting on a solid bassline, already reaching anthemic status in Ibiza.

Based on the sands of Praia Brava, with a pleasant view of the Atlantic Ocean, Warung Beach Club is a totally nature integrated atmosphere, which was developed using the Bali Island as the main decoration theme. Even the name of the club was inspired by its culture language. Warung means home for the natives from Bali. Recognized as the electronic music temple on the south of Brazil, Warung has one main dance floor with two vip areas and a second outdoor stage. Its reputation is remarkable because of its unforgettable summer seasons, the ones which the club invites the greatest names from the modern electronic scene to enjoy the hottest parties at this amazing tropical paradise, year by year.
