Defected A&R and FINA label boss Simon Morell continues his rundown of the big tunes he’s heard while out and about on the White Isle...
Cajmere – Percolator (Jamie Jones Vault Mix)
This has been smashed by everybody from MURK to Seth Troxler. Green Velvet’s voice will have you shaking your thang and singing about a coffee machine in no time.
Darius Syrossian - My Side Project
Darius gave me this track a few months ago and I'e been loving it ever since. It's got all the right elements to make a party go off, plenty of funk, a wicked groove and the sample in the break down is hilarious. It's coming out on Mile End and is already a firm favourite with DJ Sneak and Jamie Jones. Expect to hear this more and more over the next few weeks.
Onsunlade – Envision (Argy Dub)
The old school vibe on Argy remix has the veterans and new school jocks dropping this ace garage-influenced take on Osunlade’s original.
The Fog – Been A Long Time
David Squallice dropped this classic at Circo Loco and it went off . Still sounds fresh 19 years on !
George Fitzgerald - Child
We Love… have totally tapped into the new bass crossover sound with regular bookings from Ben UFO and A1 Baseline this year. A1 Baseline dropped this in the discotecha which sounded immense on Space's massive Funktion 1.
Jamie Jones - Frequencies
Taken from Jamie Jones’ new long player on Crosstown after kicking around for what seems like years, 'Frequencies' is a key track at Circo Loco and has the red walls rattling with its low frequencies.
Pirupa - Party Non Stop
Still being smashed by every man and his dog. Loco Dice had the Amnesia terrace bouncing as the sun poured through the roof… party non-stop indeed.
dOP - 3 Suitcases
dOP played live in the Discotecha at Space and it was mint! They put on a real show and party hard. 3 Suitcases never sounded so good!
Locussolus - Berghain
Techno is massively back this year with a lot of heavyweight DJ's looking for a new direction. Jamie Jones new night 'Paradise' has secured the booking of a true leg-end in DJ Harvey. Here Harvey gives his interpretation of techno which named after the famous German Club and is seeing heavy rotation at cocoon. Ace!
Franck Roger - After All (Burnski Remix)
Burnski adds his deep touch to Franck Roger 2011 smash 'After All' which can be heard regularly on Sonica and Global as well as down at the Zoo Project.
