Defected Records proudly welcomes back Alex Wann with his electrifying new single “Right,” out July 11—his first original release on the label. Following a breakout 2024 that saw his track “Peperuke” featuring Nes Mburu spark widespread acclaim and help launch Defected’s Afro-centric imprint One People, the Parisian house tastemaker returns to the main label with a statement record primed for global dancefloors.
Known for blending Afro house rhythms with deep grooves and peak-time energy, Alex Wann has rapidly emerged as one of the most exciting voices in modern house music. With support from the likes of Keinemusik, CamelPhat, and even Kelis, his signature sound has captivated selectors and dancers alike, marking him as a key innovator of the next wave.
“Right” embodies this evolution—a punchy, bass-driven cut loaded with groove, urgency, and atmospheric tension. While subtly nodding to Afro house textures, the track leans into a harder-edged, main stage sensibility that showcases Alex Wann’s multidimensional artistry. Propelled by rhythmic vocal chops and percussive finesse, the track pulses with forward motion and undeniable dancefloor command.
This release also deepens Alex Wann’s growing partnership with Defected, which began with his standout remix of FCL’s iconic “It’s You” as part of the label’s 25th anniversary celebrations. Now, with his first original release on the imprint, he cements his place as one of Defected’s forward-thinking trailblazers.
