Deep House

The creation of DFTD has proved timely and astute. In a period where mediocre house music is flooding the airwaves, Defected Records have stepped back and refined what they do best through the new imprint. The latest release from Lovebirds and co. continues their recent rich vein of form. The remixes, which dropped today (August 4th),... Read more »

Duuurty new tune on the way from Bontan, we can’t get enough. It’s called ‘Gadgets & Buttons’ and it steps away excitingly from the cleaner sound of house, which he’s become synonymous with over the last 6 months. The warm, fuzzy bass-line and direct drum pattern certainly show that he can kick it with the underground. It’s an... Read more »

It’s genuine ear-worm and a definite grower, it impresses more with each listen. This one dropped July 14th on Delsin Records, available in both digital and vinyl. For... Read more »

Toni Be is back with another offering of really nice deep house. His previous EP ‘Black Haumea’ hooked us and ‘Lovely City’ has us got in the same manner. The track is a straight shooter that features lush pads and a warm bottom line to keep the rhythm. The clincher of the track is the... Read more »

Dashka’s skills in the studio know little boundaries. In recent times, the Corkman has impressed in producing both the chillest of the chill (in the form of ‘Sunshowers’) and countless mainroom bangers (‘Solo’ and the ‘Closer’ collaboration with Matteo Dimarr are particular highlights). One should hardly be surprised, his work to date has won support from some... Read more »
