TRUE HOUSE STORIES® W/ SIMON DUNMORE (FOUNDER DEFECTED RECORDS & GLITTERBOX) # 117 INTERVIEWED BY LENNY FONTANA
A very candid interview with the main man responsible for some of the biggest house music hits in the game, Simon Dunmore of Defected Records and Glitterbox Recordings. Listen carefully on how he explains his rise in the music business. There are key notes to work and live by that he shares with all of us.
Simon’s journey through the music industry to head of Defected was a journey through various subcultures. While working in a London dry cleaners, being sent to a textile course in fashion college in Derby exposed him to the more electronic, danceable side of the post-punk and New Romantic sound. Venturing deeper into the club scene back in London, he found a new community in the soul scene that would be the canary in the mine for the house music starting to cross the Atlantic. Nights like Nicky Holloway’s Doo at the Zoo and Special Branch (including a trip to Ibiza in 1986) and a pivotal Soul weekender in, of all places, Berwick-On-Sea, lit the flame of a lifelong devotion to the soulful end of house that burns to this day. A DJ since 1983 (“I’d been making a lot of mixtapes, admittedly mostly for girls, when one day I was asked to play someone’s birthday party”), Simon threw himself into DJing and the soul scene: writing for magazines, building a database for his hand-lettered and photocopied ‘London Soul Circular’, organising buses from the suburbs to parties and events around the country. A job at Record & Disco Centre in London’s Rayners Lane saw him receiving promos from labels hoping he would hype their records to influential customers like Record & Mirror writer James Hamilton. Another customer, Cooltempo A&R Steve Wolfe, gave Simon a job doing club promotions, plugging club DJs whose feedback would inform the dance charts that were the bedrock of a track’s journey from record bag to radio play. Soon Simon was suggesting better records to sign or remixes to pursue, and when Wolfe left the label, Simon applied and got his job, later repeating the process when Wolfe left new home AM:PM. In the famously cut-throat and hedonistic 90s record industry, Simon took his time to find the right records to launch his new position with AM:PM, but a string of extraordinary releases including Ultra Nate’s ‘Free’, Alcatraz ‘Give Me Luv’, Mousse T’s ‘Horny’ and MJ Cole’s ‘Sincere’ quickly made his name. When Ministry Of Sound - whose compilation CDs were not just dominating the electronic music sales but also effectively defining the culture - offered him the chance to set up his own label (just as a takeover of AM:PM by Universal was decimating the team he loved working with), the die was cast. Defected Records was born on January 1st 1999 and has now coming on its 25th Anniversary better than ever.

'The Daydream Disco Mix Series' brings you the best disco, soul, funk and house vibes from artists both established and upcoming. Each mix is made up of our guests favourites tracks of the moment. This month we are super proud to be able to bring you the absolute beast that is Moodena!

Moodena’s success over the last five years has been nothing short of prodigious. His meteoric rise to being ever present at the pinnacle of both the disco & Nu Disco charts has seen him become one of the most in demand DJ/ producers across the globe. 

Crowned Number 1 Nu Disco Artist of the Year two years in a row and a string of number 1 selling singles under his belt has also seen him become hugely sought after as a remixer with recent stand out remixes for Dave Lee on Z Records, Rhyze and John Davis, both on legendary New York label Nervous, ‘The Destroyer’ for Soul Central, and Bellaire’s ‘Sunset Ballad’.

Despite such impressive studio prowess Moodena is perhaps most at home in the DJ booth, seamlessly combining everything from Disco and US Garage to house and Techno. His ability to fully connect with the crowd have seen him play everywhere from Elrow’s Festival in Croatia to Printworks in London to Soho House in Rome and Istanbul, Curfew Festival in Belgium and Heidegluhen in Berlin, one of the globes quintessential underground tastemaker clubs. He has also toured extensively in Mexico and toured India for the first time in October 2023.  

His stand-out Moodena Presents nights has become a London staple booking legends and upstarts alike, including Dave Lee (AKA Joey Negro), The Shapeshifters, Kirollus, Young Pulse, Ray Mang, Mighty Mouse (RIP), CJ Mackintosh, Art of Tones to name a few. With Moodena currently back in the studio working his magic on a fresh batch of disco classics and multiple international tours already confirmed it’s safe to say that his success will continue for many years to come.

This totally improvised Live Stems Mix of Gino Soccio's iconic track "Dancer" was performed during a Twitch stream on March 19, 2022 using Traktor DJ Studio and a Native Instruments D2 controller.

It has the sort of hypnotic flow that feels like a perfect fit for getting 'lost in sound' at an after-hours party in a dark room full of sweaty bodies.

You can watch a much shorter clip of this 'Live Stems Dub' on YouTube as I was performing it, obviously edited down from its original length: https://youtu.be/ChyfugLfbjw

Whilst Aureum is a relatively new name on the label scene, they are helmed by duo Bruce Leroy's who are 10 years deep into the scene and have already released with Get Physical, Yoshitoshi  &amp; OFF Rec and had support from Solomun, Sharam, Robosonic, Roland Leesker and recently by Vintage Culture &amp; Mochakk. The experience that they have brought to the label shines through and the quality of releases which they have landed this year really speak for themselves. There have been tracks with Augusta Brana, Duasto Fawcett, Berardo Campos and the biggie, Brazilian Jazz Funk legends, Azymuth.

Indeed both label debutTempo and Melo da Cuíca, their track with Azymuth, are as good as anything released in 2023.


With a brand new track 'By Your Side' just out, a celebration of Bruce Leroy's 10 years in the game I thought it was high time to speak to Marcelo about Aureum and all things Bruce Leroy. Check out the full interview over on LV here: https://levisiteuronline.com/mixes/aureum-and-bruce-leroys/

BOOGIE TO THE TOP YOUNG PULSE invite SUPER MELANIE - 12 Décembre 2023

TRACKLIST :  https://slothboogie.com/mixes/slothboogie-guestmix-422-minna/

We're really excited to bring you one of London's most exciting DJs currently bubbling up through the scene. Drawing inspiration from sounds of the 70s discotheque, this selector keeps people moving with mixes of Disco, Old School House, and an eclectic selection of Vocal and Dance tunes. Influenced by 90s music from New York and Chicago, MiNNA combines her joy and curiosity of music & dancing by finding new tracks and digging through old records, which she began doing from the age of 12. 

"For this mix I wanted to open up with a few Disco gems then head to some more Housey flavours, as well as dipping into some Vocal and Garage House I’ve found digging recently. Currently I’m really into proper Old-school 90s House and wanted to play some tracks I love from some iconic labels such as Madhouse Records, Soulfuric, Z Records and BPM King St. Sounds. As with most of my sets I invite you to listen and feel as if you are having a three course meal (somewhat), from the starter to the dessert, it will be completely different to how you felt when you first sat down." - https://soundcloud.com/minnahoney
