FM Pause is back on ROW Records with wonky rhythms, rough textures and sounds that feel unstable yet precise. This 3-track EP is all about deconstructing sounds, exploring chaos, and discovering what emerges. An over-compressed, pulsating machine that builds itself up, glitches out and slowly self-destructs.

J.Deere 420 marks his first outing on Piff records with his signature bass-ridden techno flair and expertly crafted atmospheres.

Often blending multiple styles within one epic soundscape, J.Deere 420 seamlessly journeys between sounds and genres across his productions. State of Exaltation harnesses the dynamism and style that you can expect to see much more of in the future from the budding artist.

The opening track ‘Arrakis Dream’, a nod to one of his favourite sci-fi franchises, hosts rolling subby bass, galactic synths and progressive arps to transport you to another part of the universe. A true taste of the flavour to come from the EP.

‘Summer Cruising’ gently invites you in with a warm blend of evolving pads, layered over a rich bass, that suddenly dives into a pumping offering, with crisp hats and tribal percussion. A prime example of J.Deere displaying his multi-layered approach to his tracks.

A more driven direction with ‘Supersonic’, sees an array of atmospheric pads, vocals and leads that combine above an ever present kick and bass, which push the track onwards into new elements and emotions.

‘Woob Philosophy’ features a more stripped back goa style and playful touch. As is now anticipated from the artist, a more uplifting combination of elements creates a beautiful soundscape of a progression towards the close.

The release was fortunate to feature a remix from Zouave. Approaching ‘Arrakis dream’ with a more breakbeat inspired tact, focussing more on the percussive elements and grittiness of the drums, Zouave contributes an incredibly well suited take on the opening track to round off the release in resounding fashion.

3 bass heavy groovers to get the pulse going. Dark UKG and breaks. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making them :)

Support from DJ EZ, Main Phase, Dunman, Huxley, Esc, Otik, Oldboy and more

As played on Radio 1

Raised on the thundering low-end of south Florida's club music heyday, New Orleans-based

DJ/producer Redance knows how to move bodies. His ear for percussion and discerning use

of vocal samples has landed him on Nervous, Major, and Get Up Recordings and now Chinotto

Records is excited for his debut as the second entry in their Tarocco Singles Club. These two

tracks show off Redance's more soulful side, pairing his distinctive beats with beguiling synth

melodies, alluring vocals, and a more demure but still driving bass. A nod to the old school of

Ron Trent and Prescription but very much from now, both tracks will light up floors. Available

digitally or as a bright yellow 7-inch record with neon green marbling (only 100 copies).

Epicure Records is thrilled to present a new EP from Danish producer Wille.

At the intersection between sunny, happy, dark and trippy, you'll find Copenhagen native William 'Wille' Winding trucking along. The lifelong DJ and producer’s sound is a tapestry of seemingly disparate musical connections, from Italo and Acid House to Balearic Disco, driven by a self-professed mantra of "never second guessing yourself." This new release features three original tracks, each highlighting a different shade of his sound.

The opening track NDE On MTV is a radiant ode to the coming summer, a sun-soaked banger driven by infectious melodies and a bassline that instantly gets you moving. It captures the carefree energy of the season with a euphoric, dancefloor-ready vibe. Accompanying the original is a stunning piano mix that reimagines the track in a more introspective, trance-inflected light. The piano takes center stage, weaving through the melodies and opening up a dreamy emotional landscape.

The third original track, Jacque’s Vallet, dives into deeper territory, layering smooth pads and subtle textures over a silky groove. It’s the kind of track that fits effortlessly into any setting, equally powerful on a late-night dancefloor or during a solitary listening session.

Rounding out the release are three remixes that expand the EP’s reach even further.

Elfenberg, a name that needs no introduction, reworks the title track with his signature blend of acid and catchy progressive house, elevating it to peak-time energy.

French producer Margee brings a double dose of sunshine straight from the South of France with two reinterpretations, one leaning into his acid downtempo mastery and the other a dub version that’s both sensual and hypnotic, perfect for spring nights and long summer parties.

This EP is a celebration of versatility, warmth and dancefloor magic. An essential for the months ahead.

Epicureans from all over, let’s take a ride together !

Andre Zimmer Unveils 'Saved My Life EP' on his “Big Trouble Records” imprint.

The EP features four original tracks each showcasing Zimmer's unique influence of 90’s house and rave.

"Saved My Life" EP captures the vibrant and euphoric essence of '90s rave culture, seamlessly blending progressive energy with classic elements like pianos, robust basslines, and uplifting synthesizers. Utilizing Korg analog synthesizers, Zimmer crafts a contemporary fusion of tech house, trance, and progressive house, resulting in a cohesive and fluid collection of tracks.

Durand & EFE - Madroit & Andaluk Remixes

The Córdoba-based project EFE (Electronic Flamenco Esquejes) has released a new pack of remixes (or re-esquejes, as they call them) of the material from their debut album, 'Electronic Flamenco Esquejes' which featured tracks from other artists such as Durand and Drama.

This time, EFE contributes their track 'Confundir', while producer Durand (Latido) offers 'Si acaso muero' for reinterpretation by other artists. The result is two 10" White Label records, titled 'Madroit Remixes' and 'Andaluk Remixes'.

In the first of these, deep house master Dubbyman delivers two interpretations of the material. Firstly, Dubbyman enlists acclaimed Swiss producer George Btp (aka Dan Piu/Zarenzeit) to craft a remix that takes 'Si acaso muero' into deep ambient house territory—slow-cooked with his signature touch—only to break down halfway through with a broken beat pattern that elevates the track, making it perfect for the club. On the B-side, Dubbyman revives his Man-Drake alias to deliver a downtempo and dub odyssey based on 'Confundir', maintaining the track’s identity throughout a song that serves as an ideal session opener, reminiscent of artists like Kruder & Dorfmeister.

The second record opens with a remix of 'Si acaso muero' by Bazofia and Esteban Bove (members of the group Califato 3/4). Respecting much of the original material, they opt to transform the track into a breakbeat piece using a well-known drum sample. The result is a banger—perfect for splitting a set in two and making the crowd wonder what they’re listening to. On the B-side, pianist, composer, and producer Ylia (Susana Hernández) reimagines 'Confundir' as a deep UK bass and jungle track. Using dub and IDM techniques, she retains the original essence while elevating it into much darker and more adventurous sonic territory.

Both records, in a very limited run and pressed by Artesanos del Groove, will be available on April 25 via the Electronic Flamenco Esquejes Bandcamp.

Farhot - RAQS (105-118BPM)

„raqs“, which translates to the Dari noun for „dance“ is written the same way like its Arabic original made of the three root letters: ra qa sa - to dance. under this premise of cultural kinship Afghan-German producer artist Farhot is about to add another sonic layer to his discography, this time designed for the dance floor - a space, where culture can be shared by many, which invites movement and connection.

while his earlier work was heavily influenced by the various traditions of hiphop, which later was enfused with sounds inspired by his Afghan roots, on „Raqs“ he explores the vibrant musical heritage of mostly Arabic speaking regions from North Africa to West Asia, where as his fascination for Somali music also took him to East Africa.

Like a well versed HipHop producer Farhot’s approach to „raqs“ was guided by a virtual sampling journey which allowed him to connect and fuse sounds from Egypt, Lebanon or Somalia carefully woven into an EP that stands apart from his previous work but nevertheless carries his sonic signature: productions, that can sound as complex and immense as they sound playful and simple or creating intensity through unconventional ways of chopping and distorting vocals - amongst others one will find samples of Lebanese legend Fairuz dressed in an almost experimental uptempo production.

Whoever followed Farhot’s work around the release of his sophomore LP Kabul Fire Vol. 2 via his own label Kabul Fire Records will know that he releases music intentionally alway ensuring a new quality to music, especially when he samples from cultures that are often times overshadowed by conflict or simply forgotten. With „raqs“ he reminds us of the rich musical traditions that always existed beyond the west. he also reminds us of the ways that music can connect beyond borders, like an Afghan producer from Germany, who loves Somali music and Fairuz.

When we talk house and not only house, but warm, deep and flowly suddictive that takes you on organic dance floor journey, there is one particular combo we've been trying to get in studio for some time now!

We are super happy to give you this pure underground HOUSE gems delivered from the force of Christian Engh and Ivaylo!

Coming back from the Future the 'Cyber Visions' release is made for the real house lovers.
