Surging through the ranks of the house music scene, Mason Maynard has swiftly become a staple on lineups across the globe, from the iconic Club Space (Miami) to Mediahaven (Amsterdam) and The Warehouse Project (Manchester), sharing the stage with industry heavyweights like Joseph Capriati, Loco Dice, Hot Since 82 and many more. His continuous presence on BBC Radio 1 and sought-after summer residencies underline his influence, complemented by a growing repertoire of successful releases on renowned labels like Cuttin’ Headz, Saved, Kaluki, Sola, and his own Xscape imprint. Already announced to join label boss Jamie Jones this summer in Ibiza for Paradise at Amnesia, the UK talent first serves up a stunning three-tracker ‘XTC’ featuring a collab with HoneyLuv, plus a huge remix from Hot Creations’ leading man who steps out on home turf for the first time this year showcasing his trademark head-bopping groove.

“This is a special release for me as it’s my third offering on Hot Creations so to also have a remix from Jamie makes it full circle. It’s cool to hear how my music has developed over the 3 releases. ‘XTC’ came from a studio session in London with HoneyLuv and what came from it was this fun and energetic track. ‘Fly Away’ however, is a hypnotic tale which has been a tool in my sets for a little while now.” – Mason Maynard

Title track ‘XTC’ finds Maynard and HoneyLuv team up for a confident club groover with menacing vocal hooks and playful rhythms, infusing a retro essence into the track. Next, Jones crafts an exemplary, underground dubby take on the track, intertwining layered effects and hypnotic atmospherics for the ultimate dancefloor weapon. To close, ‘Fly Away’ is another twisted offering that comes with Maynard’s distinct blend of depth, melody and groove carefully designed with a futuristic feel.

You can now listen to the full premiere of Jamie Jones’ ‘XTC’ Remix and Mason Maynard’s ‘XTC’ Original Mix, exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
