Manchester DJ/producer Josh Baker unveils his infectious new single ‘My Place’ featuring acclaimed singer-songwriter Poppy Baskcomb, released via his fast-rising imprint Bakers Dozen.

Already becoming one of the defining tracks of Josh’s sets throughout 2026, ‘My Place’ possesses all the hallmarks of a timeless house record, pairing an irresistibly smooth rolling bassline with shimmering piano stabs, crisp percussion and an instantly memorable vocal performance from Baskcomb. Built around the infectious hook – “don’t worry bout it, when the party is over, we’ll get it started, where we’ll keep it going back to my place, want to get to know you one on one” – the track has quickly become a fan-favourite moment across dancefloors globally, with crowds singing the chorus back to Josh throughout his festival and club sets, including viral moments including viral moment from Coachella, Factory Town, Miami Music Week, Parklife and perhaps most notably, Amnesia Opening where Josh played alongside Joseph Capriati.

Already one of the most talked-about IDs across dancefloors this year, ‘My Place’ captures the magnetic energy that has propelled Baker to the forefront of the UK’s new wave of house music. Built around Baskcomb’s addictive vocal and crisp late-night percussion, the record radiates peak-time energy as soon as the slick, rolling low-end groove locks in. Floating effortlessly above the production, Baskcomb’s infectious hook – “where we can keep it going back to my place, want to get to know you one on one” – turns the track into a hands-in-the-air moment, elevating the track into a feel-good crossover anthem that leaves an undoubted lasting impact.

Speaking on the release, Josh says:

“‘My Place’ has been one of those records that seemed to connect on the dancefloor from the moment I started playing it. There seems to be real anticipation on the record, people having been singing it back for months now. From the Amnesia Terrace to Coachella and EDC in the States, it’s had some huge moments already. I loved working with Poppy, it was one of those sessions where it all came together, we knew we had something within a couple of hours. Poppy brought so much personality and emotion to the track and really helped turn it into something that feels timeless, while still being made for the dancefloor.”

Poppy Baskcomb adds:

“‘My Place’ is an Ibiza-inspired house record. Working with Josh has been an absolute pleasure, and I can’t wait to get this one out into the world. It’s a track that feels just as at home soundtracking those early evening moments as it does filling big rooms and carrying people through into the afters”

The release arrives at a landmark moment in Baker’s career following the launch of his first-ever You&Me Ibiza residency at the iconic Amnesia nightclub, running every Thursday from 2 July through to 1 October. The opening party took place last night (2 July), with Josh delivering a raucous B2B with close friends Prospa – following their celebrated Coachella performance alongside KETTAMA earlier this year – while Cloonee, Job De Jong B2B JWave, Yass and Mali also joined the stacked opening night bill. Check out the full lineup for the season here.

Across the residency, Josh will welcome a huge roster of international talent including Jamie Jones, Joseph Capriati, Luciano, KETTAMA, Max Dean, SAOIRSE, Enzo Siragusa, Eliza Rose, Olive F, Interplanetary Criminal, Moxie, Shanti Celeste, Peach and more, with a run of standout B2Bs set to define the summer at Amnesia. Highlights include a special set alongside longtime hero Jamie Jones, plus link-ups with close friends Prospa following their Coachella performances together, as well as B2Bs with Max Dean, Joseph Capriati, KETTAMA, Enzo Siragusa and a first with Interplanetary Criminal, reflecting the wide-reaching sound and community Josh has built around You&Me over the past decade.

Elsewhere, 2026 continues to cement itself as the biggest year of the Mancunian’s career to date. Following headline tours across Australia, Asia and North America – alongside six performances across Coachella – Josh’s summer schedule continues at Awakenings Festival, Creamfields, Hide&Seek and Reading & Leeds Festival, alongside his Open Air day event at Magazine in London with Max Dean, D8 In The Garden in Dublin, a Day & Night headline show at the Knockdown Centre in New York and his biggest-ever Manchester headline shows to date: a huge ‘You&Me Presents’ takeover at The Warehouse Project on 2 and 3 October, which sold out in just 5 minutes.

Beyond the decks, Josh is also the founder of SYNTHO, a leading music technology platform revolutionising electronic music education for producers worldwide, alongside Hide&Seek Festival, one of the UK’s fastest-growing boutique electronic festivals. Returning for its fifth edition from 24-26 July, this year marks its biggest evolution yet as it expands into a three-day camping festival for the first time and moves to a larger site following soaring demand. Headlined by Josh, Enzo Siragusa and Kerri Chandler, the lineup also features Prospa, Chloe Caillet, Rossi., Across Boundaries (Chris Stussy & Locklead), Silva Bumpa and more.
