British DJ Josh Butler drops new collaboration EP as he reveals his hits of the week
BRITISH DJ and producer Josh Butler is well known for his distinctive, deep, driving rhythms and over the last decade, the talented Northerner has become one of house music's hottest properties.
With his new collaborative EP, Last Day alongside good friends Chesster and RUZE, landing this week on tastemaker imprint Dansu Discs, Josh will be celebrating the release at London's XOYO club on Saturday 31 May, performing an epic back-to-back-to-back set with Chesster and THEOS as Dansu Discs takes over the club again following their sold out New Years Eve party.

Since launching in 2017, Dansu Discs has become a go-to label for fresh, forward-thinking dance music. From Interplanetary Criminal and Seb Zito to Kolter and Luuk van Dijk, the label continues to push underground sounds with style and intent.
As always, XOYO provides the perfect setting for Dansu Discs. Known for its razor-sharp sound system and inclusive dancefloor, it's one of London's essential venues. With its ongoing partnership with LWE, XOYO keeps pushing the boundaries of club culture in the capital.
We caught up with Josh Butler this week and asked him to put together a playlist of tunes that offer a snapshot of the style of music that is currently fuelling his sets.

Timmy P & James Dexter - You Know Err (Origins Rcrds)
One of the favourite recent releases on Origins Rcrds. Timmy P & James Dexter have been such consistent producers over the years and in my
opinion
should be much wider recognised than they are. Big love to both of these guys!!

Happyhead - Digital Love Thing (Underground MK Mix)
It was hard to pick with MK remix to include as there are so many bangers from back in the day. But this one is maybe less know and I will try and sneak it into some sets every now and then with the right crowds.
Danny Snowden - You Give Me (Origins Rcrds)
Danny has been bubbling on the scene for a few years now and feel like 2025 things are really coming together for him. We dropped this on Origins at the start of the year with another huge track on the flip side.
