In July 2025, his ‘Mainframe’ EP helped launch Modern Delivery Xpress. He later released on South of Saturn, further expanding his reach within the house scene.
Now, Modern Delivery Xpress welcomes Jay Crusoe back for his third label appearance with ‘Clubwalker,’ a collaboration with G00DELL.
To celebrate the release, Jay Crusoe shares his top 10 club groovers.
1. Jay Crusoe, G00DELL – Clubwalker
“Kind of a sonic departure from my recent releases, this track was made to be a groover. This is the first collab I’ve released with G00DELL and I figured we’d want to make something funkier than what was expected of us. The result is this catchy, vocal-driven yet deep cut that can be used to vibe at home or dance at the function.”
2. OMNOM – Number One Fan
“No words for this one, other than being an absolute CLASSIC. OMNOM was wayyyy ahead of the curve with this one, and it knocks every. single. time. The way the vocals, wonky synths, and deep bass work together makes this track one of my top ones to play.”
3. Aka Vinnie – Don’t Stop
“Since the first second I heard this tune, I was genuinely astounded. The mood it carries with the big, dramatic synth theme and the responding bass and vocals. I JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH!”
4. Jay Crusoe – Mysterious Happenings
“This is one of my more left-field and hype tracks from my recent releases. Super fast, super funky, and fun to play, I wanted this record to come across as playful. It doesn’t take itself too seriously like some of the other moody tracks I’ve made, and I always get at least one person to ask me what song it is when I play it.”
5. Fedde Le Grand – Back N Forth (Fedde’s Future Funk Remix)
“It’s funny to hear how some of the bigger artists in the 2010s were defining the foundations for the music that’s been coming out recently. This track found its way into my sets, and I don’t think it will ever leave. There’s something magical about those older records and the energy they timelessly carry.”
6. Jay Crusoe – spontaneous combustion!
“My biggest song to date, this one was one of the first groovers in my discography. Classic and hits hard on speakers from your car to the huge arrays at the club.”
7. Julian Collazos – Ñango
“This one has been in my sets since the beginning of the Jay Crusoe project. I think very few groovy tracks build tension as this one does, and the dance floor proves it every time. I don’t think there’s been a time I’ve played this heater and the floor stays dead, it’s a versatile club weapon I think everyone should peep.”
8. Bruno Furlan – Flame
“Speaking of grooves, this track combines all the right elements of a rolling bass, tastefully repetitive vocals, and tension to create drops that not only hit hard but are undeniably dancey. Threw this one into my sets immediately when it came out.”
9. MPH – LA NYC
“Maybe a UKG 4-on-the-floor track seems out of place, but I couldn’t have a list dedicated to club groovers without LA NYC. It unlocks something nostalgic with its funky bassline and such a crisp and attention-grabbing arrangement. This one is for closing or playing smack dab in the middle of your set.”
10. Nevve, OMRI., Adam Sellouk – Activate
“I couldn’t stop listening to this one when it came out. Sitting right in the middle of tech house and indie house, it closes out the list nicely with an aggressive feel. That pumping bassline and the flawlessly curated sound choices leaves me no room for another opinion: this one belongs in every set where you want people to activate and dance.”
