Danny & Mike Parton join the Spotlight Mix

Share

We’re thrilled to welcome Danny & Mike Parton to the Data Transmission Spotlight Mix, bringing their signature fusion of ’90s house, French touch, disco, and funk to the forefront. The brotherly duo has been making waves with their vibrant productions and impeccable sampling techniques, and their latest mix is a testament to their passion for creating celebratory and timeless dance music.

Mike and Danny recently launched their own imprint, Jolene Records, as a platform to channel their love of artful sampling and groove-heavy tracks. Their debut EP showcased their ability to craft tracks that are both nostalgic and modern, drawing on years of inspiration from European house music legends. Their follow-up, ‘Jolene 02,’ dropped in late 2024, solidifying their label’s reputation as a home for French touch-inspired, peak-time dancefloor weapons.

With a history of releases on top European labels, their productions blend bold, dynamic sounds with emotional hooks. Tracks like Danny’s ‘Hotspot’ and ‘Orange Juice’ and Mike’s ‘Don’t Look My Name’ and ‘Free As A Bird’ highlight their ability to infuse funk and house with uplifting energy and heartfelt emotion.

What to Expect from Their Spotlight Mix

The mix is a vibrant journey through their influences and their own productions, including cuts from their Jolene Records catalog. Kicking off with Head High’s ‘Agatha’ and traversing through standouts like Detroit Swindle’s ‘That Freak Stuff (Soulphiction Mix)’ and Mousse T.’s ‘All I Want Is The Bass,’ the mix is a joyous celebration of groove and rhythm.

Notable highlights include Danny’s ‘Hotspot’ and ‘In The Groove,’ which bring loopy funk and house heat, alongside tracks like Dave Lee ZR & Joey Montenegro’s ‘Can’t Get High’ and St David’s ‘Get Fonk!’ The mix seamlessly combines tracks that evoke dancefloor euphoria while showcasing the brothers’ ability to curate a cohesive, high-energy experience.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
