It feels as though most summers here in good ol' Blighty are a bit of a no summer. Sure, by now it may be September but following on from a May in which every one of us enjoyed bright, heady days we've had a bit of a lull and it seems as though Mr Sunshine has decided to pass over London's grey skies for another year.

Still, no harm in partying in the dark and the rain is there? We might as well all jsut take to the streets and celebrate the rain - that'll confuse those in charge of the weather. Failing that, we'll write a strongly worded letter and get all of  our friends to sign it ten times with a bunch of fake signature. Surely 20 signatures is enough to spark a response? Anyway, here's your first chance to get a taste of the debut Sprechen release as we present to you Damon Jee's sound, transformed by Hardway Bros and featuring Duncan Gray.

PREMIERE: Damon Jee - Summer No Summer (Hardway Bros Remix Feat. Duncan Gray)

- inspired by hypnotic atmospheres & percussion-heavy universes ✨
