Who is Ross From Friends?
Ross From Friends, the recording name of Felix Weatherall, is one of the most respected voices in UK electronic music. His blend of lo-fi, house, techno, and garage taps into mainstream tastes without bowing to them, mixing lively percussion with nostalgic, sample-heavy soundscapes.
Raised by parents who built and toured their own sound system around European squat parties, he lives and breathes beats. Primavera Sound, Parklife, and Berlin’s legendary Berghain have all hosted Ross From Friends. Creatively uninhibited artists like Thundercat, London Grammar, and Jessie Ware are among the names he’s remixed.
Ross From Friends is embedded in culture, not just trending on an algorithm. Fresh from his Bubble Love headline tour and gearing up for festival season, he steps into re/works ready to soundtrack the summer.
Who has Ross From Friends worked with for re/works?
Ross From Friends has reimagined I’m Summer by Zorro. The original is a hazy, mid-tempo hyperpop track with an irresistible vocal melody.
“If you listen to I’m Summer, the song itself is very different to the stuff that I make,” says Ross From Friends. “But I could tell the vocal hook was just brilliant, and I knew there was something in that.”
The re/works version builds I’m Summer in a different image, laying the groundwork with off-kilter breakbeats, retro synth, and Zorro’s chopped-up vocals. It’s festival-ready and dreamy, made for those moments between golden hour and midnight.
“The vocal got processed so much that when I listen to the original, I’m like, ‘it’s so different,” Ross From Friends adds. “It’s kind of taken on a life of its own.”
