“The best things are always worth waiting for. Having buzzed off the same parties and dug from the same Dutch record store crates for many years, old friends Michel De Hey and Boris Ross finally collide in the studio and the result is this stone-cold summer weapon: ‘If You Know You Know’.

Know this: Everything about this track is designed for impact. Pulverising bass/kick plunges, stately hypnotic acid tweaks and a sense of weight and breadth that could have arenas the size of South Wales trembling to the core, it’s the perfect house/tech hybrid that could work across all dance floor scenarios’ And it comes from a studio alliance formed over Rotterdam’s best Surinamese sandwiches.

With Boris fresh from a Baggi collab on Desolat and Michel’s Steve Silk Hurly homage still doing serious damage on Rejected, ‘If You Know You Know’ is the latest in a rich vein of heavily supported cuts from both individuals’ Let’s hope we don’t have to wait so long for the follow-up because this really is the business. Get in the know.”
