As an artist Darren Emerson has been at the forefront of the music scene, with a recording career spanning more than two decades. From his early JBO productions as Lemon Interrupt. A decade of genre defying smash hits as an original member of Underworld and as the former label boss of Underwater Records, Emerson has been one of the most influential figures in the world of electronic music.
Detone is Emerson's new and exciting venture. The label's focus will be on releasing club singles. Original material from Darren and collaborations with many of the worlds finest production talent.
To kick things off in the finest of fashions, Darren has teamed up with UK producer and long time cohort Jamie McHugh. The pair first worked together, when Darren signed Jamie to Underwater Records in 2008. Three successful releases, 'Lunar', 'H2O' and 'Mind Games' followed and Jamie firmly established himself as one of the brightest young producers. McHugh also runs the superb Variance Recordings imprint which has been the home to music from Pezzner, Patch Park, Claude VonStroke, Kingpin Cartel and Makam. Variance was also the home to Jamie and Darren's last release together, 'Dark Matter'.
Today the pair drop 'Gracelands', a pure summer anthem that is set to rule the floors all summer long. Opening with Chicago inspired beats and bassline, we are met with sweeping strings and a devilishly catchy vocal hook. Throbbing key stabs pierce the string melody and are joined by more sparklingly delicate keys. Bring on the sun, sea and sand!
Our first remix comes from a producer who's is currently riding high in the download charts with his stunning remix of Carl Craig's 'At Les'. The highly prolific Christian Smith turns in yet another smash hit remix, taking 'Gracelands' on a wonderfully percussive and driving journey. Again, perfect for the summer floors.
The second remix gives us a completely different take and comes from Steve Cobby, member of the legendary Fila Brazillia. Steve has remixed 'Gracelands' into a beautifully low-slung and laid-back summer groove-fest and a mix that completes the most perfect of packages!
Detone will also be hosting world wide club nights, the first of which will be at London's 'East Village' on 31st July.
