What’s Up (feat. Moss Kena) MD Jones Get Together Records Released: Out now

We say Released today (14 August) and sounding like an instant smash hit from the very first minute is this blistering house track featuring Moss Kena by Brighton-based producer and DJ MD Jones. Originally from South Wales, MD teamed up with Moss after the pair connected over how good Donell Jones‘s R&B hit U Know What’s Up was one evening on tour together. MD then went away and worked on the beat to revamp the classic into this dancefloor and radio-friendly banger. It’s a winning collaboration with Moss‘s soulful and powerful voice aligning nicely with MD’s crisp, modern production that’s dominated by hard slapping house beats and an infectious energy. Having been picked up by Anton Partridge’s Get Together Records on a single deal after a hotly contested competition for it, expect to see this on dance/house playlists soon, as well as your favourite dance stations and on any discerning dance music fans' speakers this late-summer.
