[item value="10"]Simon Doty - Lady Danger [/item]
[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]Simon Doty is definitely one of the most exciting artists on Anjunadeep with quality productions so far and his track Lady Danger is not an exception.It's pure class production that will bring happiness and endless joy to the growing fanbase of progressive house. With 128 BPM, Simon builds his track with chunky groovy kicks, bouncy basslines, thumping drums, superb groove and irresistable highly infectious rhythm that simply you are obliged to dance along and let the beats and DJ take the blame for your crazy moves on the dancefloor. Classic house vocal sample merged with great atmosphere and warm melodies along with classic progressive house associated sounds that bridges perfectly the past with the future to provide the ultimate club weapon that is very dangerous to erase your bad moods and replace them with good house feel good vibes. Summer Ibiza memories for sure. #PureGold Love IT[/content]

Simon Doty remixes JODA feat. Robyn Sherwell’s ‘Closer’, out now on Anjunabeats.

2022 was a big year for Jono Grant and Darren Tate, aka JODA. Grant is one-third of Above & Beyond who, throughout a two-decade career, have established themselves as one of the biggest electronic groups in the world. In 2019, Above & Beyond received an offer to score an environmental documentary, ‘The Last Glaciers’. He enlisted classically trained musician, songwriter, producer, hitmaker and close friend Darren Tate, and the duo got stuck into composing together.

It became a dream project all around – not least because it sparked further ideas. JODA was born. Working in Tate’s studio in suburban north London, and A&B’s south London HQ, the pair were in a creative bubble during the early days of the pandemic. And the partnership proved fruitful. Their self-titled album ‘JODA’, celebrating the musical influences that Jono and Darren grew up with, was released on Anjunabeats in August 2022 – to a rapturous reception from the Anjunafamily and beyond.

Canadian DJ and producer Simon Doty recently dropped his chart-topping debut album ‘Universal Language’ on Anjunadeep. His remix of JODA feat. Robyn Sherwell’s ‘Closer’ was a standout feature on the record, standing alongside collaborations with American spoken word artist Ursula Rucker, British duo My Friend, legendary American vocalist Roland Clark, and more.

Crafted for the dancefloor, Simon’s debut album gives the audience a taste of the range of musical styles that they can expect to hear Simon play during one of his DJ sets. 'Universal Language' has gained radio support from BBC Radio 1 presenters Pete Tong and Danny Howard, SiriusXM and KCRW as well as a host of DJ tastemakers including Gorgon City, Diplo, Nora En Pure and more.

JODA's self-titled debut album is out now, and is available to pre-order on black vinyl from the Anjuna Music Store.

[content title="Summary" label="Overall Score"]JODA feat. Robyn Sherwell exceptional progressive sensual beauty Closer gets the Simon Doty remix treatment and the truth is that he did an exceptional version that stands out and has of course all the elements to cross over to progressive house and trance sets. Driving bubbling basslines, thumping kicks, techy drums, warm shower of great synths and excellent application of the so good vocals in truly mesmerizing ethereal way. While the original had a very futuristic electro prog trance sound Simon turns into a warm sensual and why not truly sexy remix that makes you feel great as you dance along and you feel abandoned and lost in your own little sonic heaven. #PureGold Love IT [/content]

Canadian DJ and producer Simon Doty announces his debut album ‘Universal Language’. The ten-track LP will be released on Anjunadeep on the 28th of April 2023, with the first single ‘Soulflow’ (feat. Ursula Rucker) out today.

‘Soulflow’ sees Simon collaborate with American spoken word artist Ursula Rucker, whose thought-provoking vocals can be heard on tracks with artists including Dusky, Marquis Hawkes and Josh Wink. Combining Ursula’s vocals with stabbing chords and a driving bassline, Simon perfectly epitomises his timeless house sound that has previously earned him support from Adam Beyer, Adriatique, Gorgon City and Hot Since 82, among others.

A firm favourite among fans of the label, Simon first debuted on Anjunadeep in 2019 with his track ‘Sama’ and has since put out five stand out EPs on the label, including ‘Hometown EP’, his ‘Living Sound EP’ and most recently, his collaborative cut ‘Touch The Sky’ with Marsh, which have collectively amassed over 3 million streams and support from the likes of Pete Tong, Danny Howard, Gorgon City and Ben Malone.


Crafted for the dancefloor, Simon’s debut album ‘Universal Language’ gives the audience a chance to listen to a range of musical styles that they can expect to hear Simon play during one of his DJ sets, ranging from house to deep house to melodic techno.
“We’re starting to lose the groove in underground dance music. This album is partly about showing people that club music can still be melodic and emotional.” - Simon Doty
The album features a range of collaborations including American spoken word artist Ursula Rucker, british duo My Friend, singer / songwriter Tailor, UK-based producer and vocalist Artche, british songstress Ruth Royall and legendary American vocalist Roland Clark as well as a remix of JODA’s hit track ‘Closer’ (feat. Robyn Sherwell).
