French DJ and producer Elvis Guetta presents his debut track, a rework of the James Brown's iconic 'The Boss', on Defected.
An artist whose first public set was at the world’s #1 club in 2025, UNVRS, Elvis Guetta is making it clear he plans to leave a long-lasting mark on the electronic scene. His DJ sets bring together the underground sounds that shaped him, with DC10 playing a defining role in his musical education. Further inspiration was also found digging through legacy records and genres.
This mindset has carried through to his discography as he samples one of the greatest icons of rock and roll, James Brown, for his debut track; ‘The Boss‘ is a sharp, house edit of the James Brown classic, proving that this rising artist’s experience on the world’s biggest stages has translated into studio prowess. The track has been supported by Black Coffee and many other A-list DJs.
Listen to ‘The Boss’ on Premier League Training Workout.
Raised in the UK on hip-hop, street culture and electronic, Elvis Guetta’s style now spans house, minimal tech and tech house, now reaching Stade de France, Ushuaïa Ibiza and Touquet Music Beach Festival as part of his summer 2026 tour – each date signposting his meteoric rise to the top. He found his way into the underground through the dance floors of Ibiza, with DC10 playing a defining role in his musical education.
Drawing from house, minimal tech and tech house, his sound brings together the different worlds that shaped him, with inspiration often found digging through old records and forgotten sounds. Now playing internationally and steadily making his way through the underground circuit, Elvis has begun earning support from some of the scene’s most established names.
