Jess Bays playlists a decade of killer tracks to mark 10 Years Of SNEAK

27 November 2024 - Data Transmission Staff

Jess Bays – as well as being a personal favourite of ours here at DT – is a name synonymous with SNEAK, the weekly house night at London clubbing institution, XOYO.

As resident DJ at SNEAK from the very beginning 10 years ago, Jess Bays has seen it all, and boy has her career rocketed since. She went on to host a weekly show Capital Dance and release on such credible labels as Defected and Good Company, with notable releases including ‘Real Love’ with Kelli-Leigh and Temptation with Poppy Baskcomb.

Jess Bays at SNEAK at XOYO

Ahead of the mammoth 10 Years of SNEAK at XOYO on 29 November 2024 – its first ever Friday night slot at the venue – we caught up with Jess to look back at her time at SNEAK to find out what tracks have smashed the dancefloor over the past decade.

Crank up the volume and get stuck in below to Jess Bays’ Top 10 SNEAK tunes off all time.

Armand Van Helden – I Want Your Soul

This record has always been a staple moment in my SNEAK sets at XOYO. It’s usually something I play towards the end of my sets to really give the crowd a big moment towards the end.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsl3k2mHDhQ?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=855]

Flashmob – Need In Me

One of my favourite classic deep house records of all time. The big vocal moment in the breakdown just sets the dance floor on fire.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3jvZ5h8U8M?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Patrick Topping – Forget

Something from my earlier days sets at XOYO for SNEAK. It’s an absolute anthem from Patrick Topping and it works every time.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdAAVJZXoYM?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

MD Express – God Made Me Phunky (Jess Bays Remix)

This remix from my back catalogue is always something that works, especially with the younger crowd. It’s really blowing up on TikTok, so they recognise it super well from there. I love it so much for the original record by Mike Dunn is as old as me! And now the remix really helps educate the next generation of ravers to music that they not necessarily have heard.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwUjAPT-82A?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Sammy Porter & Jess Bays – Devotion (Jess Bays VIP Mix)

Here’s my VIP edit of a record I wrote with my lovely friend Sammy Porter back at the very start of my production journey. It’s a classic vocal from Soul2Soul that we managed to get cleared. I love it! I’ll defo be spinning it on the SNEAK 10th Birthday.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2Prs4Qbhvw?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Weiss – Feel My Needs

This track is a proper summer anthem that always brings an injection of feel-good vibes to any dance floor. It’s always on my playlist for SNEAK parties!

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFtBuVxz_J0?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Roberto Surace – Joys

Easily one of my favourite records from the last few years. It really had a big moment when it was released via Defected a few years ago and the bassline on it paired with a great sample hook just works every time.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98g9NleTgbY?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Nightcrawlers – Push The Feeling On (MK Dub remix)

One of the records that really pushed MK to the top of his game and I struggle to find a raver or music enthusiast that does not LOVE this piece of music!

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bPe0ZXsHMjQ?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

MK & Sonny Fodera – One Night (ft. Raphaella)

When two heavyweights collide only special things happen! Two of my favourite DJ/Producers in the world only means magic is going to happen and ‘One Night’ really does achieve that.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-dpOhE9qWw?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Beyond Chicago x Majestic x Alex Mills – Million Dollar Bill

One of the greatest Whitney Houston vocals ever brought into the current times by three of my very talented friends teaming up. Alex Mills’s huge vocal talent on this one just bring the Beyond Chicago lads and Majestic’s production to an extra level!

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW9ncmFdlWM?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Catch Jess Bays at SNEAK 10 Years alongside Gem Precious, Jay Forster, Janika Tenn and more at XOYO on Friday 29 November. For tickets visit xoyo.co.uk

Inner Life Ft. Jocelyn Brown’s ‘I Like It Like That’ Gets a Stunning Michael Gray Remix on Fool’s Paradise

27 November 2024 - Grahame Farmer

Inner Life Ft. Jocelyn Brown’s ‘I Like It Like That’ Gets a Stunning Michael Gray Remix on Fool’s Paradise.

Inner Life and Jocelyn Brown’s 1982 disco classic ‘I Like It Like That’ receives a dazzling reimagining from UK Disco House maestro Michael Gray, landing November 29th on Fool’s Paradise. Known for revitalizing timeless anthems, Fool’s Paradise adds another gem to its catalog, with Gray delivering a sleek, uplifting remix that bridges the gap between disco’s golden era and today’s dancefloors.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFuaY7tEcQg?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

Powered by Jocelyn Brown’s unmistakable vocals, Gray’s remix preserves the soulful essence of the original while injecting his signature flair. The result? A punchy, feel-good groove that’s tailor-made for modern audiences. This follows Gray’s acclaimed remix of Raw Silk’s ‘Do It To The Music’ earlier this year, proving his unmatched ability to breathe new life into beloved classics.

With a career spanning decades, Michael Gray—one half of the legendary Full Intention—is a disco powerhouse. From his iconic hit ‘The Weekend’ to becoming Traxsource’s #1 Artist of 2020, his influence on the genre is unparalleled. Gray’s productions and remixes have graced esteemed labels like Glitterbox, Nervous, and Z Records, and he continues to inspire with his DJ sets for Glitterbox and Downtown Disco.

Introducing Fankee: The Label That Turns Fans into Co-Producers

26 November 2024 - Grahame Farmer

Fankee, the world’s first community-driven music label, is taking the music world by storm. Launched this October by Italian entrepreneurs Giacomo Pellegrini and Dario Pozzi, Fankee is redefining what it means to be a music fan.

Forget just listening – with Fankee, fans become co-owners, investors, and promoters of the music they love. Imagine turning your passion into an asset and being part of a song’s success from the ground up.

This isn’t just about streaming or sharing on socials. Fankee’s fans have skin in the game – earning royalties and influencing which tracks get that magic push into the spotlight. And it’s working.

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bIEVbkkF2I?feature=oembed&w=1140&h=641]

During its soft launch, Fankee’s first 15-track contest saw songs hit 350,000 streams and rack up 30 million social media interactions. In a second contest, 32 tracks pulled in 500,000 streams in just three weeks!

“Who rules social media? The community,” says Pellegrini.

“Fankee lets fans turn that power into ownership. They’re not just making hits; they’re part of them.”

With roots in EDM, co-founder Pozzi adds, “Fankee gives every fan the chance to help transform a track into a hit they can actually own.”

This is the future of music – a collaborative space where artists and fans build each track’s success together. Think of it as the Y Combinator for music, where the next big act gets a real chance, backed by fans who believe in their sound.
