AVOTRE boss Santé combines with Inermu head James Dexter as the pair deliver their first collaborative release, ‘Siren’.

A favourite within house for close to a decade, DJ, producer and label owner Santé stands today as one of the most prolific and consistent artists in the scene, with regular appearances at leading institutions including Watergate (Berlin), Amnesia (Ibiza) and Das Zimmer (Mannheim), and releases on stand-out imprints including Knee Deep In Sound, Get Physical, Saved and his own AVOTRE imprint, the home of his latest album ‘Current II’. Having been a regular supporter of the label over the years, February sees the Berlin-based talent link up with Inermu head James Dexter ‘ following his own recent collaborations with Denney, Mihai Popoviciu, Leonardo Gonnelli and Frink ‘ as they deliver their debut two-track collaborative EP ‘Siren’.

Lead cut ‘Siren’ welcomes a hazy yet dynamic opener as the pairing weave together soaring synths, rolling percussion arrangements and dubby pads throughout, whilst ‘Street Walker’ ups the energy levels as menacing low- end tones meet skipping drum licks and bubbling sub-bass, accented by infectious female vocal hooks throughout.

Santé & James Dexter ‘Siren’ EP is out via Inermu on 10th February 2020.
