JOHANNSON Drops 'Work It' on Data Transmission's dt weapons

A Rhythm-Led Club Tool

JOHANNSON has released 'Work It' on dt weapons, a sub-label of Data Transmission. The track leans into a rhythmically-driven sound, building into an arrangement where tight grooves meet catchy motifs in a production geared for dancefloors.

From the outset, the track delivers rhythmic weight, expanding with impact, control, and groove. Shuffling beats combine with a bouncing bassline to sustain forward-pushing momentum, while vocal hooks add attitude and character. Atmospheric pads enrich the track with depth and texture, building into the breakdown where a dynamic piano melody weaves in conversation with the vocal line before intensifying the energy and releasing into the drop.

Spanning Afro House to Melodic Techno

For JOHANNSON, his path within electronic music remains grounded by a confidence towards self-expression, connecting with his creativity and allowing his own emotions to direct his approach. Each step reflects an expanding breadth of influences and ideas. Aiming to channel diversity in the sonic range of his tracks, he remains locked into delivering music that reflects a broad scope of emotive depth: from darker, grittier arrangements to bold and vibrant soundscapes.

With inspirations that span Afro and Latin House to Melodic Techno and Indie Dance, his identity captures various influences while pushing into fresh territories. With 'Work It,' he delves into a bright, pulsating sound, tapping into intricate percussion and rolling beats.

'Work It' is out now via dt weapons and follows JOHANNSON's recent collaboration with Glasgow Underground's Kevin McKay on 'Do It All For You,' alongside solo tracks like 'De Mi Corazon.' The track is available on Beatport and Boost DJ.
