House music heavyweight Green Velvet joins forces with Detlef on ‘Bounce UR Body’, a powerful new collaboration marking both artists' debut release on Cloonee’s Hellbent Records.

As Hellbent continues to establish itself as one of the most influential labels in contemporary house music, few signings carry the weight of a collaboration between two artists with such proven dancefloor credentials. Bringing together one of Chicago house music’s most iconic figures and one of modern house music’s most consistent club producers, ‘Bounce UR Body’ arrives with plenty of expectation attached.

The track wastes little time getting to work. Driving drums, commanding vocals and a tightly wound groove form the backbone of the production, with both artists leaning into the direct, no-nonsense approach that has defined their careers. Built for peak-time impact, the record delivers the kind of immediate dancefloor energy that has become a hallmark of Hellbent’s catalogue.

For Green Velvet, the release adds another chapter to a career that has helped shape house music across multiple generations. From underground clubs to major festival stages, his influence continues to be felt throughout the global electronic music scene decades after emerging from Chicago's rich house music heritage.

Alongside him, Detlef brings a catalogue of club-focused releases that have earned widespread support from DJs worldwide. Known for his instinctive understanding of groove and dancefloor dynamics, he remains one of the most respected names in contemporary house music.

With both artists combining their strengths, ‘Bounce UR Body’ feels like a natural fit for Hellbent Records. Tough, energetic and built with maximum dancefloor functionality in mind, it showcases exactly why Green Velvet and Detlef remain such enduring forces within the genre.

Already making an impact across clubs and festival stages, ‘Bounce UR Body’ stands as one of Hellbent’s most notable releases of the year so far.
