DEFECTED has revealed the programme for its first ever London FSTVL this September at Central Park, East London. Taking place on Saturday 14th September 2019, the festival’s five stages will be hosted by Defected, Glitterbox, Classic Music Company, 4 To The Floor and DVINE Sounds – ground-breaking imprints that form branches of the extended Defected Records label family.
Headlining the Defected main stage will be house music pioneers Masters At Work, enigmatic chart-topper Claptone, Dennis Ferrer, David Penn and a host of well-loved label residents including Sam Divine and Simon Dunmore as well as live performances from India, Julie McKnight and Shovell on percussion. Disco phenomenon Glitterbox will host Dimitri From Paris, Purple Disco Machine, London legends Horse Meat Disco and more, including live appearances from label newbie Fiorious and vocal powerhouse Teni Tinks.
The 4 To The Floor stage will dig deeper for dance music classics from the likes of Todd Edwards and London legends X-Press 2, CJ Mackintosh and Heller & Farley while Classic Music Company will showcase the left-of-centre sounds of Honey Dijon, Derrick Carter, Folamour and Sophie Lloyd to name only a few. DVINE Sounds, the up and coming label run by long-time Defected resident Sam Divine, will showcase the talents of Low Steppa, Amine Edge & DANCE alongside Jess Bays, Dario D’Attis and more.
DEFECTED London FSTVL will bring together over 10,000 people to showcase the best house DJs that make the London label an enduring authority in dance music. Established in London 20 years ago, the event marks an exciting milestone for DEFECTED as it celebrates its 20th birthday this year. While DEFECTED events continue to tour year-around all over the world, DEFECTED London FSTVL will celebrate the label’s hometown, showcasing pioneers of the London dance music scene and the international acts who love to play there.
This 2019 one-day FSTVL is gearing up to be the perfect summer closing party in the UK’s capital with some of the world’s most respected house DJs.
