Grammy-winning dance music titan Purple Disco Machine joins the illustrious list of Defected House Masters with a celebratory compilation. German producer, DJ and worldwide acclaimed name Tino Pointek, aka Purple Disco Machine, is the perfect example of what makes a successful artist in modern dance music; respected in the underground, he has achieved huge crossover success with remixes for the likes of Sir Elton John, Dua Lipa and Mark Ronson. The king of rare record digging for house and disco first landed on Defected over a decade ago and has since delivered remixes of iconic tracks such as Fatboy Slim’s ‘Praise You’ and the London imprint’s own mainstays including Shakedown’s ‘At Night’ and Tensnake’s ‘Coma Cat’, as well as impactful originals like ‘Beat Fantasy’. From re-workings of classics, to remixes of modern-day cuts, to upfront, energising tracks, Purple Disco Machine has crafted a distinctive, instantly recognisable sound, which isn’t afraid to quote or not, and is always bursting with joy. Across ‘Defected presents House Masters: Purple Disco Machine’, the full breadth of the iconic German selector’s sound is felt, from 2019’s hit ‘Dished (Male Stripper)’, to lesser-known cuts like his re-work of Fallout’s ‘The Morning After’, to remixes of legendary tracks like The Shapeshifters’ ‘Lola’s Theme’ and Spiller featuring Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s ‘Groovejet’. ‘Defected presents House Masters: Purple Disco Machine’ is here to display the sound of a true electronic music maverick in its fullest glory.
