Premiere: Listen to Summer Jam “Aphrodite” by KORT & Elementary
KORT & Elementary join forces once again, ramping up the feel-good factor for summer with their new jam, “Aphrodite” out on Tropical Velvet Records this upcoming August 19th. Sautéed with echoes of those heady sun-drenched Balearic days of early house, “Aphrodite’s” infectious percussive groove drizzled with an evocative vocal, shimmering disco strings, funky guitar licks, bells and emotive pianos. Just perfect for those ‘hands in the air’ moments, whether poolside, sundown, or dawn.
UK producer/DJ KORT (aka Ben Webb) has been forever in pursuit of creating distinctive, quality house music, a journey that has taken him to launch his own Tropical Velvet label, an imprint that has seen him work with stellar artists such as J Paul Getto, Lorenzo Hall, Man Without A Clue, Electronic Youth, Deeptrak, Angelo Ferreri, Tommie Cotton, as well as being a stable for his own productions.
Since winning the Defected Producers competition in 2011 and signing a publishing deal with Defected, KORT has gone on to build an impressive production repertoire, including “Tomorrow” (Copyright), No Fear EP (Copyright), “Stay” with Reno Ka (Lapsus Music), “No Lies” and “For You” ft Jessica Simmonds and ‘Holding On’ (Tropical Velvet), among many. He recently causing a storm on YouTube with the remix of Hollaphonic’s “Runaway” ft. Aaron Camper (Universal Music), with over 100, 000 views. KORT has brought a unique blend of DJing and live performance with PA’s to major clubs across Europe and North Africa, in addition hosting label parties, with their first one of the year taking place at Mcqueens, Shoreditch, with Let There Be House on 29th April.
For “Aphrodite” KORT has teamed up with South London based engineer/producer/DJ Antony Harper, an artist that has been around the dance scene for 20 years engineering for a plethora of artists. Now under his new production name “Elementary“, he has taken his style of soulful/disco house to success with a series of recent releases, including a previous collaboration with KORT on their recent house smash “Do To Me” ft Jade Mayjean Peters. Without a doubt the two make for a great partnership with plenty more to come in the future!
