RECORDED IN JUST UNDER TWO WEEKS AT SOULWAX’S DEEWEE STUDIO IN GENT, ‘ESSENTIAL' WAS CREATED USING THE GEAR THEY DIDN’T USE FOR THEIR CELEBRATED 2017 LP FROM DEEWEE, WHICH WAS RECORDED LIVE WITH THE BAND IN ONE TAKE.

THE BAND ELABORATE: "WHEN WE WERE APPROACHED TO MAKE AN ESSENTIAL MIX FOR THE BBC IN MAY 2017, WE CHOSE TO DO WHAT EVERY SANE HUMAN BEING WOULD DO, WE DECIDED TO LOCK OURSELVES INTO OUR STUDIO FOR TWO WEEKS AND MAKE AN HOUR OF NEW MUSIC BASED AROUND THE WORD 'ESSENTIAL', INSTEAD OF PREPARING A MIX OF ALREADY EXISTING MUSIC. THE PRODUCT OF THIS OTHERWISE UNWISE DECISION IS SOMETHING WE ENDED UP BEING VERY PROUD OF AND IS NOW BEING RELEASED ON THE PIECE OF PLASTIC YOU’RE CURRENTLY HOLDING IN YOUR HANDS."

The next artist stepping up to mix Defected’s coveted In The House series is Melé, a producer whose standout percussive sound and infectious energy behind the decks makes him one of the UK’s most captivating, flourishing DJs. From 13-year-old bedroom DJ growing up in the Wirral to his breakout tribal anthem ‘Ambience’ in 2015, Melé has now fully honed his skills in production and mixing, culminating in two mixes for ‘Defected presents Melé In The House’ and three brand new productions. Two of these original productions are included in this sampler, demonstrating what’s to come from the compilation.

With live percussion from drum warrior Shovell, the cover of ‘Pasilda’ pumps up the track’s unmistakeable rhythms and piano melody (recorded live by prolific record producer Fraser T Smith) with an irresistibly hefty bassline and vocal loops. A long-time highlight of Melé’s sets but until now unreleased, ‘Pasilda’ is an exclusive from the upcoming compilation. The aptly named ‘Brooklyn Bounce’ is Melé’s ode to Danny Tenaglia, a key influence whose sought-after percussive spirit is apparent throughout Melé's work. This sophisticated pumping house cut with plenty of signature layered percussion is the perfect set-up for the anticipated ‘Defected presents Melé In The House’.
