The vocal ensemble Dames Brown have been a big part of the Defected family since their first release on Classic six years ago, leading up to their Defected Records debut with 'What Would You Do?' featuring Andrés and legendary soul musician Amp Fiddler in 2021. On release, the Detroit natives showed their exceptional talents and effervescence at every turn, snatching the attention of UK radio legend Trevor Nelson and in demand selector Dan Shake. Now the trio return with a follow up single produced by a fellow Detroiter, underground mainstay and Bling47 label founder Waajeed. Soul, funk and gospel come together for 'Glory', a record soaked in sunshine and euphoria; the rich electronic history of Dames Brown's hometown intersperses with the acoustic, live sound of worship for yet another release steeped in authentic house excellence

With leagues of experience operating across the Detroit scene, Rimarkable is known for her unwavering knowledge of where electronic music comes from and where it is going. Growing up heavily influenced by Black gospel music, her selections as a DJ, producer and broadcaster bring together a wider understanding of funk, jazz, rock, gospel and soul that is unlike any other in the biz. 

For this latest release on Classic, the Afro-Latina from Detroit teams up with fellow curator, tastemaker out of NYC, SACRED H3ART. Founding member of R.E.A.D. and Ancient Deep, he emerged with a debut album last year that was met with critical acclaim. The American pairing invite you to experience the underground with ‘Complications’ - an effortlessly suave delivery of driving, floor filling house featuring spoken-word vocals from Rimarkable herself and bold production from two artists at the top of their game.

Love Attack Records owner Alan Dixon joins forces with Homoelectric resident Will Tramp for the gospel house Glitterbox release ‘Sunday Stomper’. Over the past two decades, the two DJs and producers have established themselves as respected nightlife experts; Alan for his longstanding residency at Savage, London in addition to appearances at CircoLoco and The Warehouse Project, while Will’s Mancunian club experience Tramp! was host to a plethora of huge names in the industry such as Kraftwerk’s Wolfgang Fur, Chromeo and Justice. Alan’s usual synth-led sound makes way for a piano-driven hi-octane vibe, fusing with Tramp’s disco sensibilities for ‘Sunday Stomper’, a high energy floorfiller featuring euphoric, sermon-like vocals. The Piano Preacher Mix brings the melody and live instruments to the fore, while the Do It Right Dub builds over time using heavy vocal manipulation.

Piem explains "I took a break from gigs and focused on creating new music, and that's when the opportunity to collaborate with Todd Terry came along.

Grammy Award nominated DJ/Producer Todd Terry has been engulfed in dance music since he first started listening to European dance music records while growing up in Brooklyn. Already devoted to turntables, he heard something different in those tracks, and he “went for the difference. I never got a break in New York, but England happened right away, so I catered to them.” In any event, the Todd Terry sound was born.

By 1988, Todd Terry hit big in England and Europe, and his notoriety was making its way back to the U.S. In addition to DJ appearances, Todd was cutting his classic underground tracks A Day In The Life, Weekend, and Can You Party, released under monikers such as the Todd Terry Project, House Of Gypsies, and Royal House, all considered essential and ground breaking.

In the mid 90’s, the Ministry of Sound’s eponymous UK label released A Day In The Life, a collection of Todd Terry tracks that had been causing dance floor panic. That then led the way to a deal with Mercury Records allowing him to set up a context in which to work with his favourite singers and performers. The first release, Keep On Jumpin’ on featured a vocal workout from super-divas Martha Wash and Jocelyn Brown, together for the first time ever. The song became a top 10 UK crossover pop hit and worldwide smash. Todd followed with the anthem ‘Somethin Going On’, a top 5 UK crossover pop hit.

All the while, Todd continued to break new ground as a Producer/Remixer. From SNAP to Annie Lennox to George Michael to Bjork, Todd’s mixes bridge the ground between club cool and commercial accessibility. In 1995, his remix for Everything But The Girl’s Missing became a worldwide smash, giving the British duo their first ever hit. He then rode the charts with mixes for Garbage (Stupid Girl), The Cardigans (Love Fool), Everything But The Girl (Wrong), 10,000 Maniacs (More Than This), Jamiroquai (Alright), The Cardigans (Been It), and The Lightning Seeds (You Showed Me),.among others. He also produced a Robin S track (Givin’ You All That I’ve Got) for the multi-platinum Space Jam soundtrack.

INK/Distinctive Records 2005 release The Todd Terry Trilogy: Past, Present & Future on 3 x CD & 10 x 12” vinyl has inspired Todd fans both old and new with over 30 Todd classics and 10 new Todd songs. Todd is also releasing a barrage of new singles on Blanco y Negro, Elementary Group, and Manifesto/Mercury (who are also re-releasing the ‘Keep On Jumpin’ and ‘Somethin Going On’ in 2006). Ministry of Sound has licensed Philippe B Vs. Todd Terry ‘Can You Feel It (Can You Party)’ for a major 2006 release, a new version of the Todd classic Royal House ‘Can You Party’.

Todd Terry All Stars feat. Kenny Dope, DJ Sneak, Terry Hunter, & Tara McDonald’s ‘Get Down’ will be released in 2007 on Strictly Rhythm. This red hot single is the first proper original release on the re-launched legendary label.

‘Strictly Todd Terry’ compilation mixed by Todd Terry will be released in 2007 on Strictly Rhythm. Todd’s mix follows installments by Masters at Work and Tiefschwarz in this newly launched series.

Todd is one of the world’s most celebrated figures in dance music. With almost two decades of dance floor domination under Todd’s belt the quality of his productions goes from strength to strength. Welcome to the church of house music presided over by Todd the God. Are you a believer?
