Bandit & Belfort - Jenny (Heaven Can You Hear Me) (Paul Woolford Remix)

Does anyone do Piano House better than Paul Woolford? Probably not.

So good to see Paul add his magic touch to this already incredible record from Bandit & Belfort called 'Jenny (Heaven Can You Hear Me)', which came out towards the back-end of last year.

Absolutely adore Bandit's voice and can't wait to hear what she has in the pipeline...

Fucking love this remix!!!

Debbie - Rain

Once every so often, an artist comes along who just feels really special - Debbie is one of those people. Ever since featuring on the last Stormzy album back in 2022, she's someone who I've been following and keeping track of their journey. This new single 'Rain' feels like she's really started to find her sound and I can tell that this will be a huge year for Debbie. Can't get this one out of my head. LOVE! Stream here.

Knevrm!nd - Thoughts

Unmistakable vibes from Karizma (aka Kaytronik) under his Kneverm!nd alias... Skippy drums, deep pads, a beautiful bassline and a masterclass in vocal (MJ?!) sampling. One of the best to ever do it. Support on Bandcamp here.

Sweely - Time For Freakness (On The Ride)

'Time For Freakness (On The Ride)' is the latest single from French producer Sweely, someone that I've been following for many years now, and it's amazing to see the progression and how well he's done. The vocal on this one is amazing, but that bassline is the real star, and is giving me serious early Daft Punk vibes. You can pick up your copy on Bandcamp here.

HYPNOSIS THERAPY - SEOUL HOUSE (Feat. 이윤정)

Hypnosis Theraphy are a South Korean duo, whose music I came across courtesy of Derrick Gee. Their new album 'PSILOCYBIN' is one of the best things I've listened to this year - beautifully chaotic, it manages to move between deep house, footwork, drum & bass, rock, and more, all while retaining a style and a vibe, which is completely unique and quite simply perfect. This is a must listen - check it out here.

The Blessed Madonna, JOY (Anonymous) & Danielle Ponder - Carry Me Higher

Ever since The Blessed Madonna dropped it in her Boiler Room in Bali a few months ago, it's safe to say that 'Carry Me Higher' has been one of the most-wanted IDs around. A seriously uplifting and euphoric moment, which you can hear working on so many dancefloors around the world. TBM, Joy (Anonymous) and Danielle Ponder simply got everything right with this one.

Nic Fanciulli & Calussa - Vente

After two strong releases in a row on Defected, Nic Fanciulli returns with Miami duo Calussa for a super catchy latin-inspired anthem. A lot of hype on this one since his Ibiza set with Butch, and you can see why... makes a cold, wet winter's day feel like summer. Check it out here.

Kitty Amor - Solitude (Feat. Nathan Nicholson)

One of the hottest names in the Afro House world, Kitty Amor launches her brand new label 'Mahaba' with this stunning single entitled 'Solitude'. This track premiered in the 'Who Is Kitty Amor' documentary, and has been stuck in my head ever since... those drums & that rumbling bassline are hypnotising. Support here.

Oden & Fatzo & THEOS - Set You Free (Feat. Queen Rose)

'Set You Free' is my favourite track from the new EP from Oden & Fatzo and THEOS on Defected, which features Detroit artist Queen Rose on vocal duties. Those chord stabs are very reminiscent of 2013 NY Stomp vibes, but the whole track feels very fresh & unique for 2023... All of the right deep house elements, working perfectly together.
