Naples has long produced dance music talent that refuses to sit still, and ESSED is one of its most compelling exports right now. The Italian DJ and producer has built his reputation less on a single breakout moment and more on the sheer reach of his music, earning support from heavyweights such as Marco Carola, Solomun, FISHER, Cloonee, Mau P, Wade, and Vintage Culture. With releases already landing via Hellbent Records, Diynamic, Interscope, Criterio, SOLA, and Moodchild, his catalogue reflects a truly global sound that never boxes itself into one lane.
Now he arrives on COCO, the imprint helmed by SOSA, for his label debut with the two-track ‘Get Down’ EP. The release follows COCO’s refreshed visual identity earlier in the summer and continues the label’s steady run of club-focused records, all designed for extended dancefloor use and long-term rotation.
The title cut, which we are proud to premiere today, is a masterclass in controlled tension. ‘Get Down’ is built on driving precision and a simmering pressure that keeps rising through its high-energy grooves, the kind of track engineered to lock a room in and hold it there. Its counterpart, ‘Ritmo Sabroso’, moves in a brighter, more vibrant direction, leaning on Latin-tinged rhythms and a looser, more fluid groove that offers the perfect foil to the intensity of the title track.
Together, the two cuts capture exactly what makes ESSED such a versatile force, and they make a confident statement for where COCO is heading next.
You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Get Down’ exclusively on When We Dip Radio. Enjoy!
