REESE & Diffrent Unite on 'Rewind Crew' as Two Rapidly Rising Careers Collide
From Huddersfield to Heidelberg, two of club music's fastest-growing names come together on a collaboration years in the making.
In today's club music landscape, collaborations often happen over email. Rewind Crew took a different route. First revealed during a face-to-face set at CruClash Leeds, the track captures the energy of two artists meeting in the environment they know best: in front of a packed dancefloor. The result is a bass-driven club weapon that feels like a natural crossover between REESE's UK Bass roots and Diffrent's modern UK Garage sound.
For REESE, Rewind Crew marks another milestone in a journey that's gathered serious momentum over the past two years. The Huddersfield producer broke through with Where Have You Been, a record that surpassed 10 million streams while earning support across BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM and Capital Dance. Releases on Crucast, Garage Shared and Viper Recordings helped establish his name before signing a long-term deal with 3 Beat / Universal, opening the door to collaborations with artists including Stylo G and remix work for Dimitri Vegas & Steve Aoki. While his sound has continued to evolve, his focus has remained the same: making records built for the energy of the club.
Diffrent's rise has been equally impressive, albeit through a different route. The German producer has become one of the defining names in the new wave of UK Garage, building an international following through releases on labels including Club Heart Broken, Time Is Now and ATW. Support from artists such as Sammy Virji, Interplanetary Criminal, Malugi, Oppidan and Notion quickly pushed him onto the global stage, while a Boiler Room appearance and BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix cemented his reputation as one of the genre's most exciting new voices. With a relentless touring schedule spanning Europe's biggest festivals and clubs, his influence now stretches far beyond the UK Garage scene.
Together, REESE and Diffrent bring two different perspectives to the same dancefloor. Rewind Crew doesn't try to blur the lines between their styles; instead, it embraces what each artist does best, resulting in a collaboration that feels authentic to both. Premiered where it belonged, in front of a live crowd at CruClash Leeds, the record arrives as a statement from two artists whose trajectories are only continuing to climb.
