House Vinyl New Releases - News

Richard Burkinshaw & James Rial aka Audiojack's standing in electronic music speaks for itself, the pair have been heavily involved since around 2006 and have made quite the impact with releases for 2020Vision, Leftroom, Get Physical and of course their own Gruuv label where they return to here.

Over the past year Gruuv has unearthed material from some of the most promising young talents in the industry, such as Dale Howard, A1 Bassline, Copy Paste Soul and Coat Of Arms, a telling sign of the attentive nature and acute A&R skills of the brains behind the imprint.

Here we see Audiojack offer up some fresh original material, the first of which is title track 'Machine Code', the duo employ a production technique used in their critically acclaimed 2006 hit 'Robot' here, wherein every sound is generated by channeling the rhythmic elements through the same delay. The result is a gritty dancefloor focused cut, fuelled by glitchy effects, vigorous drum lines and baroque structural changes. Up next on the original material is 'Indigo', seeing the pair opt for a more refined, progressive groove this time, playing on vacillating background atmospherics, organic percussion and infectious bass licks.

On the flip side of the single we see two remixes offered up, the first of which is Paul C & Paolo Martini's interpretation of 'Machine Code'. The Italian duo turn in their signature up-tempo vibe with the mix, extracting snippets from the fray of the original and reshaping it into a bouncy and vibrant workout.

Man of the moment Alexis Raphael then closes the single with his remix of 'Indigo', the Hot Creations / Jackathon Jams artist reworks the original track into a dynamic, groove-led number with gritty 909 rhythms and dubby resonant synth stabs driving the composition.


This is as expected superb new material from Audiojack and yet another first rate addition to the Gruuv catalogue...

Multinotes is a record label created by Lehar, Musumeci and Olderic and it is open to anyone ready to expose their very own
musical point of view. This is not a "family", this is a private club for modern, open minded people ready to challange themselves and
the rules of unknown. Multinotes first release it comes from the italian close friend and long time producer Enzo Elia which
delivered an intense three tracker ep written together with his mate Gianluca Tavaroli (IMGL).

Soul Of Hex's Vicario Musique is making a comeback in 2018, with Cedillo's most personal EP to date. The main track ''Tetro'' is a futurist, simple but effective track dragging influences of the highest order on Chicago, Berlin and Detroit. ''Shadow Aspect'' moves into a darker perspective combining analog and modular synthesis and clever drum breaks. On the bright side of the EP, ''Sun Compass'' a collaboration with his brother Anttares is reminiscent of a Paradise/balearic inspired track showing Cedillo brothers versatile style. To finish the EP, the melancholic ''There are no words'' is a dedication to the memory of Cedillo's grandfather. Tetro has been already being championed live on Soul Of Hex's Live Boiler Room session, and at Tim Sweeney's Beats in Space Mix by Zombies in Miami.

TB is the alias of Permanent Vacation label co-head Tom Bioly. His releases as TB so far
are "Invitation To Love" on John Talabot's Hiverned 10" imprint (was voted amongst the best
10" releases by UK Fact magazine), and "City Girl" on Permanent Vacation, of which
German Groove magazine wrote "..entirely superb..".

"Heartbreak Hotel" is a double twelve-inch release with eight tracks of melancholic dance noir
set in smoke-filled darkness. Acid bobbles, distorted strings and echoed guitars are mangled
and layered on machine beats and disco drums.

Hot on the heels of the Jaxx Madicine remix of Kyoto Jazz Sextet on Local Talk, Tommy 'Tubojazz' Garofalo - goes on a solo adventure once again.

His previous EP "Unbreakable" had equal parts of soul, jazz and funk blended together with a house twist.
The follow-up "Night Colors EP" shows both that and a deeper electronic side.
Opening track 'Two' is a clever number with its changes & sonic wizardry throughout.
Turbojazz makes the perfect blend between house and techno dipped into one big pot of deep Detroit vibes.

Next up is 'The Joint', a track that wears the distinct Turbojazz trademark throughout with its playful keys and sequenced drum programming at full tilt.

Side A sees LB aka LABAT offer up two brooding house cuts, textured and tweaked for maximum sonic pleasure and enticing you effortlessly down a rabbit hole of grooves.

On the flip Mr. Fries goes hard with two lo-fi, gritty electro joints full of crunched percussion, low-end weight merging with zaps, bleeps and acidic undertones.

Rolling minimalistic groovers from Birdsmakingmachine for the ninth instalment of the series. A versatile EP that keeps in line with the BMM trademark sound, while offering a track for each mood, from more dancefoor-oriented club music to stripped down afterparty vibes passing through broken beat influences and eclectic atmospheric soundscapes.

Picnic Record's founder Captn K is back and while he was gone he got a 909, "What are you gonna do with your 909 Captn K?" – "Try doing a bit of house I guess." So with this release the West Australian producer lends his unique style to a bit of 90s inspired house.

Sometimes you just gotta get it off your chest, and with the world the way it is there's a fair bit to get angry about. On R U COOL? Captn K shakes his fist at the sky and gets old school with his 909 and trusty bass synth to let it all out. A rant filled bad-ass-belter that cranks you up and kicks out the bad vibes. It's funny but relatable. It's simple but it's big! Included is a dub version for the club when you want the wriggle without the rant.

On the flip we got Tonite We Flying, a sexy piano driven builder that launches into a vocal filled disco/house track. Amazing husky vocals from Captn k's mate, Britt Bro tell the story of a night out and the desire to be free. Chugging piano n bass, juicy synth swells n sweeps and funky percussion get jiggy with their long time pals, 909 kicks n claps! Together it creates an uplifting energy filled anthem that makes you want to soar into the night!

Let you ears and sub be the judge, chances are you'll find a place for this one in the crate at your next party.

Als eines unserer bislang beliebtesten Releases in 2014 findet DAUWDs KINDLINN EP (KOMPAKT 295) eine mehr als gelungene Fortsetzung mit SALEH, dem jüngsten Vorstoß des Londoner Produzenten in romantische Psychedelika und tiefgründige elektronische Musik. Zwei neue Tracks gilt es zu bewundern, die einem den Kopf auf sanfteste Weise verdrehen und jene Liebe zum Detail aufweisen, die bereits die melodische Bravour der vorangegangenen Veröffentlichungen entscheidend mitgeprägt hat.

Wie DAUWDs vorherige Aufnahmen sitzt auch das neue Material auf SALEH bequem zwischen den Stühlen von Techno, House und UK Bass, wenn auch mit einem scheinbar wachsenden Vergnügen an den geradlinigeren Varianten im Groove-Spektrum. Das erlaubt einen schärferen Fokus auf die verschiedenen, wundersamen Lokalitäten inmitten von Dauwds Klanglandschaften, einem höchst fantasievollen und meisterhaft inszenierten Ausspähen von wogenden Synthesizer-Texturen, hochfliegenden Melodien und mitreißender Percussion. Der Titeltrack ist ein erstklassiges Beispiel für die klangliche Wanderlust des Produzenten, der in den Nebengassen nahe der schwer befahrenen Hauptstraße alle möglichen Sorten von verspielten Feinheiten ausbrütet.

Debut release from Australiain artist Destiny71z, the first part in a trilogy of EPs specializing in wild analog experiments in house, techno, electro and garage.

Created using Buchla Music Easel, Buchla 200e System, Various Eurorack Modular Synths, drum machines and synthesizers. Four mind-blowing tracks of bubbling electronics. The full EP's will be vinyl only with select singles dropping digitally.

Essential music for fans of Legowelt, Mr Ozio, Floating Points, Pepe Bradock etc.

limited, vinyl only, no repress!

‘Wild Slide’ is the debut album from techno supergroup, Better Lost Than Stupid, aka 3 of the world’s finest producers and DJs - Martin Buttrich, Davide Squillace, and Matthias Tanzmann.

Released on 13 September by Skint/BMG, the 11 track album follows a slew of singles - ‘Back From The Desert’, ‘The Sky Is Too Low’, and ‘Inside’ – which have won praise from the likes of Mixmag, Dancing Astronaut, RA, Radio 1 (Pete Tong and Danny Howard), Marco Carola, Dubfire, Nicole Moudaber, Kolsch, Joris Voorn, Claptone, Eats Everything, Adam Beyer, and many more.

Electronic music underpins ‘Wild Slide’, but Better Lost’ look beyond it with a varied collection of song ‘Wild Slide’ is the debut album from techno supergroup, Better Lost Than Stupid, aka 3 of the world’s finest producers and DJs - Martin Buttrich, Davide Squillace, and Matthias Tanzmann.

Released on 13 September by Skint/BMG, the 11 track album follows a slew of singles - ‘Back From The Desert’, ‘The Sky Is Too Low’, and ‘Inside’ – which have won praise from the likes of Mixmag, Dancing Astronaut, RA, Radio 1 (Pete Tong and Danny Howard), Marco Carola, Dubfire, Nicole Moudaber, Kolsch, Joris Voorn, Claptone, Eats Everything, Adam Beyer, and many more.

Electronic music underpins ‘Wild Slide’, but Better Lost’ look beyond it with a varied collection of songs that combine synth-pop (‘Inside’, ‘Wild Slide’), electronica (‘Boys & Girls’, ‘Harder Than Gold’), indie rock (‘Back From The Desert’), and downtempo (‘Without The Feeling’, ‘Bender’), with the kind of euphoric techno moments they’re individually known for (‘Inside’, ‘Right Now’).

‘Wild Slide’ shows that the comparisons made between Better Lost’ and stadium techno acts like The Chemical Brothers, and Underworld, stand up. The production quality is every bit as good as you’d expect from Buttrich and co, and the songs have been crafted and written by three people who’ve spent their lives making music and then playing it to hundreds of thousands of people.

Following 2018’s full-length, Dominance, Deep’a & Biri reemerge on their Black Crow imprint for Black Crow 012, presenting three immediate yet sophisticated cuts traversing techno and electro, brimming with character and detail.

‘Approaching Skopje’ is a tunnelling slice of techno, landing with enough bass weight to drive a wormhole through any heaving rave, coupled with layers of trippy electronic textures that blend inherent heaviness with sheer hypnosis.

On the contrary, ‘Quantum Hypnosis’ sees an instantaneous swung-groove gradually blossom into a weightless electronic lullaby, wrapped in fluttering modulations and a sense of shimmering intrigue.

Finally, ‘Roots‘ builds a bridge between both tracks and bodies and minds beside; a loose breakbeat flirts a circling analogue signal, demonstrating the duo’s subtle craftsmanship at it’s most psychedelic and soaring.

Dusky are back with a new EP as we move towards the back end of summer. Following up on the massive release that was Life Signs Vol. 1 on Gerd Janson's Running Back Records, the duo now return to their own imprint, 17 Steps. The 'Imagine What' EP is their first 17 Steps release since the Aset Forever EP at the end of 2018 and marks the 25th release on the label. In their own words - "Imagine What is a personal journey through shimmering melodies, proto-rave vocals and shuffling drums, arriving at a deep, eyes-closed peak. L.I. takes classic electronica as it’s main inspiration, along with the deeper side of D&B. A chance experiment with an arpeggiator led to the main melody, while a solid wall of low frequencies and electro leaning beats propel the rest of the track. And Cedar uses sampled breakbeats combined with ambient soundscapes that touch on early Speedy J and Warp vibes.”

On the second chapter of the KOOAAD Muzik saga, obscure composer Filippo Diana shakes hand with Cronenberg, Carpenter and Detroit's finest electro pioneers and delivers a masterful soundtrack to the never released sci-fi movie NEMESI.
'A neuro scientist synthesizes a protein that amplifies sensory perceptions. Using himself as test subject, in an attempt to establish the right dosage, he takes too many shots that will quickly and inevitably plunge him into the depths of insanity.'
All tracks are filled with a tension that ranges from fear and mystery to arousal and ecstasy, accompanying a vision that never became cellulose yet entrains our brain like a stroboscopic dream.
Music to play on a monochromatic screen with oscillating brightness at theta frequencies.
Seven tracks mini album selection of the original sound score.

NYC collective Sheik 'N' Beik continue to bolster their catalogue and add to a slew of cosmic cuts from Xamiga, Derek Marin, Voiski and Peter Corvaia with the next installment coming courtesy of NYC newcomer Jeffrey Scott.

Having been a mainstay at the Sheik 'N' Beik parties across NYC and Ibiza, Jeffrey Scott is a long term friend of the team. He is an artist who has patiently cultivated a methodical yet free-flowing form of production that melds live instrumentation, warped and celestial synthesis with a healthy sprinkling of oddity that lends him perfectly to a release with Sheik 'N' Beik.

This - his debut 12' - is built predominantly with Hardware, Software and modular gear and kicks off with 'Under Aqua' that drives flat, whetted kicks through flexing metallic tones and pellucid clicks and snaps. Distant, reverberated signals are gently pushed in and out of the mix as additive percussion pushes momentum forwards. Panned and mangled spoken word hops between languages which, alongside a soft and rueful chord change builds a striking soft / hard contrast.

Allegorical in its progression, 'Down To Art' then opens up with layered Boards Of Canada-esque synth tones sat atop a buoyant pulse. Passages of twisted spoken word and clever sound design builds disquieting tension that never quite boils over whilst keeping the listener pinned throughout.

'Drum Morphing' then sets sheets of glacial synth tones atop clipped analogue drums. Patient and natural in it's progression, it slowly renders the moon's landscape and closes with playful use of delay, pitch bending and panning that caps off an impressive and daring debut from Scott and another fine addition to the Sheik 'N' Beik series.

Ridiculously dope....TIP!

D.K. and Low Jack.

White Visitation, who debuted on Blank Sate 006, returns with a full EP that showcases the vastness of his musical capability. The Mexico City native doesn't submit to the boundaries and limitations of genre to frame his musical identity. This ability inspires the conquering of differing styles of music without hesitation. The result is a pervasive sonic ngerprint evident in any of his creations. White Visitation begins with Maintain, a heavier-leaning track which evades abrasiveness while
remaining vigorous. The track, previously released on cassette, seems to smother a melancholic feeling desperately yearning for escape. CYEADOS is a ballad of distant war horns crying out in longing. It peaks with a barrage of brutalist ride cymbals which both pummel and soothe. Take it Again is an exercise in elegance and elation. White Visitation consummates an
atmosphere of sweetness without sacricing an ounce of depth. He balances layer upon layer until what stands is a house of cards constructed to resist the ever intrusive winds of monotony.

For this second release we are honored to have Dawl on board. This talented artist has grown with a personal style, releasing only top-quality beats in the latest year. Expect some electro, techno, acid and breaks ready to rave!

KETTAMA debuts on Dance Trax with 4 club smashers taking in Glitch-Hop, UKG and that sweet spot between techno & house. Tip!

PBR Streetgang return to their newly launched KURTZ imprint this October to deliver ‘Acid Tools’, accompanied by Wilde Renate residents Longhair on remix duties.

Founded in Leeds but now found touring the international scene week in, week out, Bonar Bradberry and Tom Thorpe, aka PBR Streetgang, have cemented their position as leading names within the current house and disco landscape via a slew of stand-out releases on imprints such as Skint, Crosstown Rebels and Futureboogie, plus appearances in 2019 alone at Glastonbury, Love International, Printworks and a summer residency at Pikes Ibiza to name just a few. Launched earlier this year, their new KURTZ imprint quickly found favour amongst a who’s who of the industry’s leading names, from Andrew Weatherall to Bicep, Hot Chip to Soul Clap, and here we see the duo step out again on home turf to deliver the second instalment as they reveal their Acid Tools’ EP, featuring three versions of the up-front ‘Ron’ - each of which have been doing damage in their sets across the summer months - backed by a remix from Wilde Renate residents Longhair.

Up first and delivering the ‘Full Fat’, version one sees Bradberry and Thorpe introduce punchy analogue percussion arrangements in tandem with a chunky, menacing acid line at the production’s core, whilst infectious vocal samples and hooks ebb in and out of the mix to guide the production as it chugs along, whilst the ‘Half Fat’ mix strips back the vocals to reveal a driving and warping journey across six-and-a-half minutes. Next up, Berlin duo Longhair’s remix welcomes a low-slung interpretation armed with delayed effects and sci-fi atmospherics to provide a combination of rich depth and space, before rounding out proceedings via the ‘Fully-Skimmed’ mix – a high-energy 909 fueled workout set to feature as a favourite for many across the months ahead.

For the 15th release on Ondulé recordings, Around7 offers us a treasure hunt through his influences and his love for sampling.
The « C KIKIMIX » EP is starting with King Britt version of « Last night a DJ saved my life » turned into a hypnotic House piece.
Then passing by « C D'LA DYNAMITE », a Madlib sample totally dynamited by the MPC's filter.

And finaly ending with « DECONNE PAS MORRICONE », a classic cut by Enio Morricone flavoured with acid bass. Well, a « must-have » for sample lovers and adventurous DJ's...

The always on-point and culturally significant Tuskegee Music is back with more essential music, this time from venerated American producer D’Marc Cantu. Over the course of a distinguished career, Cantu has contributed to everything from jackbeat to acid, house to techno on labels like Creme Organisation and Les Disques De La Mort. Always serving up raw-edged, uncompromising sounds, he does so again here on another standout EP. Opener ‘Beat The Move’ is an urgent, high tech piece of slick and supple acid house with 303 undulations, dark vocal loops and the sort of hammering drums that get the club locked right in.
The sublime ‘In The Forest’ is a tripped out bit of restless electro with skittish hits and rueful pads that gets right to your heart. Last of all is the militant, marching ‘A Narrow Connection’ which closes things out with crisp kicks and scintillating sheet metal drums that straighten your back and get you stomping.
These are utilitarian yet wonderfully unique club tracks from a real master of the form.

Glad to have the legendary british player Danny Howells back on Nick Curly's & Gorge's 8bit Records. Proper house music in all its styles and variations!!

Tamango Records sign uprising stars Moonlit Vision for a tasty four tracker EP. It's the very first time since the opening '13k EP' by label boss Yaya that we provide a full-originals only EP - so fasten your seatbelt for an astonishing trip into every shape of house with their brand new 'Pointed Sounds' EP.

Newcastle pals Ross and Callum wisely released only a few tracks in the last couple of years, landing on labels such as Rich Nxt's 'NxT Records' and Lauren Lo Sung's 'E1even Records'. They've also got their tracks remixed by the likes of FUSE regulars Ben Rau and Rich NxT.
Opener 'Something' it's a true house weapon where funky swinging snare drums carry the track from start to finish. Melodic pads go on and off, while catchy female vocal shots create an amazing atmosphere upon a serious shaking-groovy beat which is impossible to not move with.

A2 'Ballad Of The Bubblegum Kid' is a solid tech house tune with some splashes of UK raw and garage moods. The powerful and boosted bassline takes control of the track and perfectly fits with sharp hi-hats, delayed chant, and housy chords.
On the flip, 'Subterranean' is another quality tune with intricate rhythmical sections and gorgeous vocal samples bringing back some early house feelings. This one is about claps, snares and a blizzard of hi-hats and tiny panned percussions all wrap around each other into a kinetic jam, turning throughout to bring plenty of good vibes to the driving groove.
Closing the affairs is the deeper and more intimate 'Mindbowl' - a joyful deep house tune with dreamy chords and pads, perfect as an opening tool or late after-hours moments.

First release from Focus On Egoless Limited Series.

REPRESSED !!
Dungeon Meat are back after 2 well received EP's from Point G and Mr G with some serious claw to the floor club weapons. Welcoming another new addition to their brigade of beat butchers, it's the Dutch producer and DJ known as Larry de Kat who drops a fine feline selection for his Purrr-versions EP . Four killer tracks which showcase his diversity and perversity in the studio . There's no doubt that this selection will do the damage on the dance floor and bring even more attention to this undeniable talent.

Manifested in Berlin‘s iconic club scene, Michal Zietara and Oskar Szafraniec quickly developed a friendship through their mutual passion for all things in electronic music.

After several b2b DJ sets across Berlin and Poland came about a time to put two musically talented heads together and work in the studio.

This first and not last EP from the newly formed
Loser Records in Berlin is a modern reconfiguration of minimal inspired voice of stripped back house music. A spiritual and bracing energy of active percussion throug- hout, ties in the „less is more“ repertoire without the clichés and all the originality.

London based label and party Butter Side Up follow-up a sold out debut release from Christian Jay with another helping of atmospheric house music, this time from Leeds based rising star Midge Thompson. The long time BSU associate serves up three tracks that are complemented with a rare remix from the legendary Titonton Duvante.

Opener 'Destination 2242' is a slick and spaced out broken beat groover. Sci-fi motifs wither next to a sprinkling of garage percussion and rubbery drum programming is brilliantly loose and body popping. 'Delta' gets even deeper, with skeletal drums knocking out an infectious late-night rhythm while dreamy pads flesh things out. Spacecrafts drift in the background to add some cinematic stylings and make it perfect for the more close-knit dance floors.

On the flip, 'Beeston Lights' picks up the pace with perfectly rolling kicks pulling you in as keys twinkle up top like a distant metropolis at night. It's smooth and breezy house music to carry you away on a blissful vibe. Remixing is Titonton Duvante, a long time influence on the Butter Side Up crew and a cult figure in heady house circles thanks to definitive work on his own Residual Recordings, Mosaic and many others. His chunky take on techno is hard to beat, as proven here with a remix that re-works the drums into busy, restless things that work the feet while the Americans's typically ethereal pads bring real depth.

the bomb with the remixes by sub focus and nero !!! now repressed !!!

DJ HAUS'S FIRST MIXTAPE OF 2013 HAD EVERYONE FROM SKREAM, DISCLOSURE, HUD MO, BREACH & KODE 9, BICEP, CANING THE SHIT OUT OF IT... MUCH TO EVERYONES SURPRISE.. PLUS RAVE REVIEWS ACROSS THE BOARD DJ HAUS RETURNS WITH A MINI 4 TRACK EP INTRODUCING THE SPACE JAMS SERIES - WOW!!!!

There is something about the groove on DJ Mau Mau’s early releases that just gets me and everyone within earshot moving wildly each and every time a track of his gets slammed in the club. His tunes go hard for sure, but the rhythm and vibe seems to be something hits people universally.

Hell’s Club has been on my want list on Discogs for years and that prohibitive price really left me no choice but to reissue the damn thing. I have played it every single set since I got the new masters back and it is so effective at getting a crowd moving. Tech house at its absolute best.

Mid way through an immense yearlong tour celebrating 10 years of FUSE events, Enzo Siragusa unveils his second album of 2019; A Decade Of Rave Volume 2. Volume 1 (released in April 2019) exhibited 10 solo tracks from Enzo that meandered through his 10-year journey at the helm of FUSE.
Volume 2 brings in the four members who have remained at the core of FUSE history; Rich Nxt, Seb Zito, Rossko and Archie Hamilton, each collaborating with Enzo to create seven straight-talking dance floor cuts that have fuelled FUSE parties, capturing the essence and development of the “FUSE sound” over the last decade. This is the first time FUSE fans will see all five work together on one release and is a testament to the watertight friendships they have built. Rich Nxt and Seb Zito were by Enzo’s side at the very first FUSE party back in 2008, while Rossko and Archie Hamilton climbed the ranks up to the booth from the dance floor, starting as fanatic weekly ravers of the party.
Enzo and Rich Nxt set the tone for the batch of euphonic collaborations that follow, starting with ‘See you In Ten’ and the straight up grooves of ‘Enriched’. Rossko cuts in second to bring us the engagingly propulsive ‘Dreamers’. Archie Hamilton takes a deeper direction with ‘Aviva’ and ‘Direct Line’. Finally, Seb Zito kicks the gear back up weaving garage influenced elements into ‘What’s Going On’ and closing with low slung ‘What’s Happening’. All tracks testifying to each resident’s deftness in creating atmospheric gems with the mastermind behind FUSE.

The 6th Bodytrax release is the first in a new series and marks the first appearance of artists other than Bodyjack on the label. He has invited some of his favourite kindred spirits along for some duelling action over the machines with the simple premise for each EP; both deliver a track apiece, which is then remixed by the other. It is with great pleasure to say that the first to step-up to the plate is Fiedel (MMM, Ostgut Ton, Berghain etc). The Berliner whose work has featured in Chris's DJ sets for aeons, has been behind some of the music that has without question influenced the Bodytrax label since the outset. His idiosyncratic production style meshes perfectly with Bodyjack, and it's safe to say fans of both will not be disappointed to have this duel kick off the series.

Claque Musique kicks off another piece of beauty. "America", Joe Montana's iconic house jam from 1996, is back out now, after more then a decade, remastered and remixed from Chicago House pioneers Virgo Four and The Museri.

Patrick Mason and Rekids boss Matt Edwards return for their second appearance as SRVD with two cuts entitled 'RAW FILES'.

Not confined to a single art form, Patrick Mason is a young creative at the forefront of Berlin's art, fashion, dance music and LGBT scene; an influential club kid who developed a friendship with Matt Edwards after a chance meeting in Panorama Bar, resulting in numerous studio sessions and improvised live sets.
Joining forces in 2018, the pair adopted their SRVD moniker - an alias inspired by New York's vogue scene - before dropping their debut release on Rekids, playing at various clubs (notably Panorama Bar), not to mention an unforgettable performance at Boiler Room x Pornceptual.

'The Yard Man' presents rattling drums, piercing vocal chants and a tormenting melody that SRVD has been destroying dancefloors with over the last year. On the flip, 'Brotha' presents a compelling groove as a shuffling rhythm joins abrasive synths and Mason's penetrating voice.
