Mau P debuts on Defected with ‘Merther’: Listen

Mau P has released his debut track for Defected.

The Dutch producer and DJ has sampled Ini Kamoze’s reggae classic ‘World a Music’ on ‘Merther’, which is described as “a hard-hitting electronic damager built for the club”. 

“I’m so stoked to finally release ‘Merther’ after testing it on the road for a long time. It’s sick that I get to put this out with the legendary sample from Ini Kamoze’s ‘World A Music.’ I didn’t think this would be remotely possible a few years ago, but here we are,” said Mau P about the release.

“My fans have also been asking for this one nonstop so I’m happy they don’t have to keep listening to ripped versions online and can finally get the full finished version. ‘Merther’ has also been a staple in Solomun’s sets lately and has been supported by Michael Bibi also, which is amazing to see because those are two artists I admire very much,” he added.

Check out ‘Merther’ below.

Mau P made his debut on DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs Poll this year, entering the poll at No. 91. Last year, he rolled out a remix of Swedish House Mafia’s ‘Ray of Solar’ single.

Meanwhile, Defected marked its 25th anniversary this year with a book, Defected: 25 Years In The House, and vinyl boxset.
