Aussie collective not without friends remix a certified classic, ‘Groovejet (If This Ain’t Love)’ by Spiller featuring Sophie Ellis-Bextor on Defected.

A track that needs little introduction, Spiller’s 1999 track was an instant hit following a surprise drop at renowned Miami club Groove Jet. A number one hit in Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and the UK followed, with the record’s enduring legacy cultivated by remixes from the likes of Todd Terry, Purple Disco Machine & Lorenz Rhode, Riva Starr and more now joined by not without friends.

Formed in Melbourne, William Kiss, Luke Alessi and Jordan Brando are successful DJs, producers and artists in their own right, coming together to release music as not without friends. Despite having released just a few records together under the collective, they’ve gained support from the likes of Barry Can’t Swim, RÜFÜS DU SOL, Chloé Caillet, Arielle Free and Danny Howard, with the trio selling out shows across the UK, US and their native Australia.

First teased at Rippon Lea Estate in their hometown of Melbourne, not without friends’ remix of ‘Groovejet’ takes Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s iconic vocals and playfully loops them, underpinned by the trio’s signature, hard-hitting groove, no doubt reintroducing a house favourite to a host of new fans.
