On 4th December, the Paris-born DJ and producer makes a long-awaited appearance on the legendary Definitive Recordings with \u2018Dance To Dance\u2019, a release that brings together two defining forces in his musical world: a deep-rooted respect for house music\u2019s foundations and an enduring desire to keep the sound moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>Real name Damien Roussel, The Mekanism has spent years building a reputation that extends far beyond the studio. From his early days behind the decks in Paris to international dancefloors, his journey has been shaped by an uncompromising love of music, a natural feel for the crowd and a refusal to be boxed into a single sound. Across releases for influential imprints including Needwant, 20\/20 Vision and Seth Troxler\u2019s Play It Say It, he has continually explored the space between disco-infused grooves, raw acid textures and infectious, club-focused house.<\/p>\n<p>Now arriving on Definitive Recordings, \u2018Dance To Dance\u2019 represents a significant moment in that journey. Long admired by Roussel as a label that helped shape his musical education as a DJ, the release carries a personal significance beyond the dancefloor. It marks the coming together of an artist whose sound has been forged through years of digging, playing and experimenting with a label deeply embedded in house music culture.<\/p>\n<p>For The Mekanism, the dancefloor has always been more than a destination, it is the starting point. With \u2018Dance To Dance\u2019, he continues a story built on curiosity, groove and a lasting commitment to the music that first pulled him behind the decks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nTRACKS<br \/>\n&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\n1.
