Defected presents- In the House Mixed by Martin Solvieg

Defected's peerless In the House series marches on, consistently serving up the definitive guides to upfront and classic House music, from Miami to Ibiza and beyond.Following Bob Sinclar and Dimitri From Paris's highly successful collections from earlier in the year, one of the label's most talented artists and DJs continues the French invasion - this is the sound of Martin Solveig In the House !!

The man behind dancefloor anthems such as 'Jealousy', 'Rocking Music', 'I'm A Good Man' and 'Everybody', who has wowed the dance scene in the last few years with his production talents and skills in the booth, presents an album of cosmopolitan house grooves and funk-fuelled party beats, mixed with typical Gallic flair and unfaltering exquisite musical taste.

Featuring tracks (including several exclusives) from Martin himself, Bob Sinclar, Tiga, DJ Gregory, Mr. V, Dennis Ferrer, Salif Keta, Erro, The Chi-Lites, George Clinton, Jackson Sisters , The Rebirth, Incredible bongo Band . Lee Fields, Kurtis Blow, Bugz In The Attic and many more across two CDs and two double vinyl LPs, the album takes in many styles and flavours, underground Disco sits beside deep pulsating House ,uplifting vocal Garage & funk fuelled block party classics - this is far from a typical linear DJ mix !!

Martin Solveig is a seasoned artist even though he is still considered very young - only in his late 20s he has already released two critically acclaimed albums ('Sur La Terre' and 'Hedonist') which have spawned numerous club hits and even chart success, and is travelling the world plying his eclectic Disco and Funk inspired House trade with DJing slots in many of the most revered clubs on the planet. Having worked with legendary voices such as Lee Fields and Salif Keta this is a man who understands the roots of modern music and manages to incorporate them into fresh and innovative modern grooves - he is constantly pushing the boundaries yet retains a strong commercial sensibility which means his productions and DJ sets appeal to both the heads and the wider community of quality music lovers.

Currently working on a new artist album, this In the House compilation includes an unmixed third disc of classic Solveig tracks and remixes - a fine introduction to an artist whose star continues to rise! Tags
