Dylan Hermelijn, AKA 2000 and One, has been producing electronic music for 20 years now, but 2009 will finally see him release his debut solo record.

Hermelijn has previously been involved in collaborative album projects under the names Planet Gong and Edge Of Motion, but Heritage is the first time that he's put together a full-length by himself. As with his recent productions, house music is one of the major influences behind the music on the album. But whilst most of Heritage takes its cues from vintage Chicago house, there's a distinct Detroit bent to tracks like "Egusi" and "Mejiro" with their epic melodic synth lines.

Speaking about the album, Hermelijn explains, "I just want to rock the dance floor with simple and effective grooves." If the sneak previews on his MySpace page are anything to go by, it looks like there's a good chance that he's succeeded...www.residentadvisor.net

House Master No.3 comes in the guise of Dennis Ferrer, an artist known first and foremost as the New York producer and remixer with the Midas touch. He burst into the house scene with his seminal 2003 hit ‘Sandcastles’ a collaboration that he did with Jerome Sydeham that set his standard. 

He has since reworked and defined classic records from Blaze (providing the key mix on the anthemic ‘Most Precious Love’ – a UK Top 20 hit), as well as being the guy that took Fish Go Deep feat. Tracey K ‘The Cure & The Cause’ to another level completely, reaching No. 23 in the national charts, crossing over to the mainstream direct from the underground due to great radio and club support. 

The culmination of years of quality output was recently demonstrated on his debut artist album ‘The World As I See It’ which deftly linked soulful vocals with stripped down techy flavours – a benchmark House album in every sense. 

His underground productions have also earned him respect from DJ’s the world over. He re-work of Copyright ‘He Is’ and The Sunburst Band ‘Journey To The Sun’ made an impact on the world’s dance floors, as well as his own productions ‘P 2 Da J’ and ‘Black Man in Space’. 

This is why Dennis Ferrer is so unique as an artist. He has the ability to transcend all genres of house music from Techno to Soulful, from Deep to Vocal, Dennis is the master of them all..http://www.defected.com
