DJ Steaw returns to Swerve Digital for his first EP on the label ‘Come Along’, backed by remixes from M-High and Mateo Dufour.

A favourite for many, Rutilance Recordings and House Puff Records boss DJ Steaw has carved a sound fusing classic house touches with his forward-thinking approach to the genre. Releasing material via Kaoz Theory, Madhouse and PIV, the Paris-based DJ, producer and label boss’ slick and sophisticated records are regularly supported by the scene’s biggest names while playing across Europe’s most renowned venues himself. Having touched down on the label to remix residents TwoSlice at the end of 2021, late September sees a return to Swerve Digital as he unveils his latest EP ‘Come Along’ – with PIV A&R M-High, and Key Records linchpin Mateo Dufour joining on remix duties.

Title cut ‘Come Along’ showcases the Frenchman’s ability to flow effortlessly between old-school influences and future- focused sonics as he delivers a skippy production guided by bubbling leads, off-kilter low-ends and sweeping pads, while ‘The End Of Time’ switches things up as dubby stabs and swirling electronics merge with echoed vocals to head to hazy late night territories.’

Serving up his take on the lead track, M-High’s ‘Turned On Remix’ welcomes a garage-tinged ride through funky basslines and infectious vocal hooks, before Mateo Dufour’s remix of ‘The End Of Time’ closes the package in style as he weaves organic drums with trippy vocal snippets and zig-zagging melodies for a cavernous terrace anthem.
