Best enjoyed out of direct sunlight, Defective delivers distinctive progressive house and trance tracks that fuse a range of influences and styles. The Defective project is fronted by UK DJ and producer Jonathan Barker , and is promoted online by Presence Music . Representing the dark and progressive elements of Jonathan's writing and production work, Defective first graced the pages of the Presence Music website with a unique re-working of the chart-bothering Electric Six track, Gay Bar. Originally produced for a remix competition hosted by London radio station XFM, Defective's transformation of the track resulted in a deep and dark progressive workout that received UK radio play (XFM, Galaxy) and DJ support beyond expectations. That initial spark ignited a flame that burned bright, fuelling a huge number of new studio tracks that are currently nearing completion.
Although the mysterious and enigmatic face of Defective rarely shows itself in daylight, night-time brings out all manner of wicked things - after a break from the limelight used to focus on studio production the Defective project will soon be let out into the wild. Details of the latest DJ sets and live performances will be posted soon...
