Ben Sterling, London-born DJ and producer based between Ibiza and Miami, is a driving force in the UK's burgeoning house and tech-house scene. Today, his highly anticipated new single, "Around The World," featuring British singer-songwriter, producer and platinum-selling topline writer Stevie Appleton, is released on Ninja Tune imprint Counter Records. Sterling joins a roster of notable label mates on Counter Records, including nimino, Rules, and LP Giobbi.

Speaking on the new track and collaboration with Stevie, Ben says, “I got to know Stevie primarily by hanging out with him at various parties. When I started researching his work, I was struck by his talent, and I immediately thought he'd be the perfect person to collaborate with on this track. This song has a lot of elements I wanted to include—melodic, Afro, and deep house sounds that are popular right now. I feel this track offers a full spectrum of those sounds, and Stevie's songwriting style just naturally fit in.”
