Simon Doty’s ‘Reflex’ gets a fresh workout here, with Dutch producer Mil Jes reshaping the original into a deep, tech-leaning groove steeped in vintage house. Where the original leaned on Simon Doty’s signature blend of analog warmth and emotive melody, this remix strips things back to the essentials and points them squarely at the dancefloor.
Mil Jes builds the track around a rubbery, rolling low end and a simple but insistent lead hook, then threads surgical vocal chops through the groove to keep it moving. It is a club tool in the best sense, restrained enough to slot into a long set yet characterful enough to stand on its own. The result is incredibly DJ friendly, the kind of record that does its work without ever overplaying its hand.
The remix arrives on Recess, the Toronto-born label and party brand founded by Simon Doty, which has become a reliable home for feel-good, groove-first house. Simon Doty is a Canadian producer and DJ whose catalogue spans Anjunadeep, Knee Deep in Sound and Last Night on Earth, built on gritty analog synthesis and tough, driving rhythms. Mil Jes, based in Nijmegen, is an emerging force in the Dutch house scene, known for distinctive basslines and groove-focused rhythms that have already drawn support from a long list of leading DJs. Together they turn ‘Reflex’ into a lean, functional groove made for peak-time rooms.
