London based ANII returns home to KOMPAKT following a breakthrough year. Since the release of her KORZENIE EP (KOM 380) then releases on AEON AUDIO and POLYMATH she continues to bring a unique and highly emotive take on techno and house music to a sound that has become more and more mundane over recent times. She's back with ANIITIME - a diverse, three track EP that starts with RIDE THE TIGER. It made us squeal with glee when we first heard it. Is this an inadvertent tribute to the Warp classic, SWEET EXORCIST or just some jungle voodoo magic Listen to it for yourself! The title track sees her going deep into her emotional treasure chest to produce a violin meets acid (it works - we swear!) techno incarnation. Her third offering is the solid, house riddled GALAXIANII. Move over Boney M - ANII is our new captain who takes us on her latest night flight to...

Jeremy Hyman steps up to FT with the first of two 12" EPs that are a coordinated blast of colorful, galaxy-edge plastic techno from the master percussionist who moonlights in Lifted, Boredoms, Animal Collective, and more. Always rhythmatic in exciting ways, Hyman's drum programming here is more arms than buttons, injecting a fly human element in the 12". "Slide" does what it says with amazing technoid bass work and a propulsive sense of timing, "Madness" hovers and falls and hovers again, and "Tinted Mirror" is some sort of Foodman-meets-Prescription-Records house symphony, rising and rising and rising. Tip!

Palette 71 kicks off with legendary Warp artist Plaid on remix duties. Transforming the title track, re-synthesized 909 samp-les and lua scripted sequencing, Plaid builds melodies and ar-rangement to epic proportions in classic Plaid fashion.

Tejada’s new EP is an homage of sorts to the sample heavy production style of the late '90s. "Limiting the options and just creating and manipulating a batch of samples is my happy place,” says Tejada. The title track hints back to a personal favorite, Optical’s "Moving 808s." While the sound is quite different, the approach is similar: samples, editing, some fil-ters and not a whole lot more opens up a lot of creative possi-bilities without too much getting in the way. Of course, the bass plays an important role. Combing through some older influences of varying styles, the production became more in line with Tejada classics like “Timebomb” and “Western Star-land,” both sample collage pieces focused on groove.

The final track, "Infinity Room" also follows this production process while resulting in a slightly moodier sound.

It's time to deliver the second EP from Adana Twins' latest mix compilation and with this one we set the focus to the more organic and off kilter leanings from Lehar, SBTH, Acid Pauli, Musumeci and Stereocalypse. Kicking things off is Italy's Lehar with his super slick 'Blue Wolf' where robust percussions culminate in a potent groove laying the foundation for lush sonic melodies that transport you into uniquely sublime spaces. SBTH follows with the exceptionally unique '4W1R6' where they forgo the standard four-to-the-floor approach and employ a distinguished and uncommonly unique 3/4 time signature to full effect creating a swelling and brooding number assuring a definite, clear memory long after it ends. Flipping to the B-side we see the renowned Acid Pauli in top form as he relies heavily on thick organic percussion and plush musicality with his 'Greetings From Orgonon' before switching gears as Musumeci delivers a stunner with 'Invaders' where past meets present as Disco, Techno and House all meet in one harmonious culmination. To round out the EP, Stereocalypse's 'Jubeelee!' is an expertly crafted venture into the modern techniques of infectious Afro-House concluding an extremely well rounded EP showcasing the diversity of Adana Twins selection and diversity.

Alexis Cabrera debuts on FUSE sister imprint Infuse as he releases his four-track ‘Acidity’ EP.

Argentinian born, Berlin-based producer and live act Alexis Cabrera has emerged as one of South America’s finest electronic music exports with a string of stand-out releases via the likes of Raum…Musik, Moscow, Yaji and Salty Nuts over the past few years alone. A co-founder of Fun Records alongside fellow Argentian Barem, Cabrera’s sophisticated, groove-heavy sound combined with his impressive live performances have seen him take to world renowned venues such as Watergate, Tresor and Hoppetosse in his adopted hometown, and September now welcomes another ‘feather in his cap’ as he makes his debut on FUSE sister imprint Infuse to deliver his four-track ‘Acidity’ EP.

Taking cues from its title, lead cut ‘Acidity’ unveils a bubbling acid-driven production guided by sweeping synths and slick drum licks, whilst ‘Bulevardò’ journeys through warping electronics, shuffling percussion and off-kilter vocal murmurs to offer up a twisting, hypnotic ride. Next up, ‘Tocado’ introduces an infectious medley of organic drums, resonant bass melodies and icy hats, before closing proceedings via the jazzy chords and funk-heavy bass licks of the infectious ‘Esa Vaina’.

This very special Jannowitz Records release is brought to you by three of the hottest producers out there at the moment. Jannowitz label head BOHO teamed up with techno power duo Gaga & Mateo! to create what is probably the most pumping EP that the imprint has brought ot life in the last years.
„Kenzo“ EP consists – as usual – of two original tracks and two remixes. The title track being the classic Jannowitz Records style: melodic, minimal and full-on techno. With heavy-hitting kicks, slashing percussions and some minimalistic synth elements that prodive the track with the infamous space invader touch.
„Switch“ on the other hand is more progressive, one of the many other key styles of JAW. It’s a proper deep tech track with carefully located vocal elements and a synth-heavy break that will spiral you onto Mars.
But let’s move on to our fantastic remixers: The Reason Y and Drumcomplex are back! Two people who have accompanied the label over the past not only as artists but also as friends. The Reason Y’s remix of „Kenzo“ is a hypnotic masterpiece and offers exactly what you would expect of a regular on imprints like Second State and Terminal M.
When we received Drumcomplex’s remix, we were blown away by the creativity that our homie has put into creating this beast. His „Kenzo“ remix is straight forward, yet uplifting in a way. Listen for yourselves. We can promise one thing: You won’t regret it.

Bruno Pronsato & Jens Zimmermann split release on Hello Repeat.

The latest subsequent sees Cosmic JD take the reigns for a 4 tracker choc to the brim of deep teched-up punk.

After releasing "Morgenland" album Der Dritte Raum Record's stable drops their eight EP, bringing up Hale Bopp, which some of you may know from trance shenanigans back in the roaring 90's

What makes it even more better then the original classic track are the re-interpretations. Ricardo Villalobos & Cavaan flashes their acclaimed producer talents and their works are both very original and quite different from each other. Since his epics like 'Easy Lee' and 'Dexter,' Villalobos has kept stretching out his music, and his Hale Bopp version is full of rhythms and more changing than ever - meandering in ever-widening circles. Same is Cavaan's remix. It's drifting on their own with spiraling barbed rhythms that emerge from couplings of analogue machines. The Ison Adaption on B2 is remodeled by Krüger himself and on all remixes the main-melody is kept, although no samples are used, making it rather different from the original.

Our latest release Caisa came to us as a demo by Patricio Chrigibonga from Ecuador, and it didn't take me very long see its potential. I said: „I think this is one of the biggest tracks I ever signed for Break New Soil!“ Everywhere I play it out, people come running to the booth asking what it is - so this time we believe we don't go too far by predicting: We might have a future classic here.

When we thought of who could remix this, Kevin De Vries' name came to my mind right away - and Kevin delivered once again with a spaced out, arpeggiated bigfloor version that still keeps the original in mind but adds Kevin's signature sound! We could not be happier with this release and hope you will love it as much as we do!

ISNISNT offers it's second release of forward leaning electronics with a diverse group of modern techno from label head Jesse Siminski. Acting under his Heartthrob guise, Jesse initiates the release with 'Someone Called Again' a tough, but funky, bass driven tune that marries detailed production with his signature ominous melodies to great effect. Subtle modulating percussion work against harder, swung snare and synthetic drums workouts, as surprising analog synth bursts glue things together. Building smoothly into a headfirst groove, the track pressurizes and never loses it's drive as heady synth riffs keep things musical and emotionally interesting. In an even funkier tangent the two mixes of 'Cougar Juice' draw together an irresistible bass line with pushing breakbeats and precise synth stabs. These horn like synthesizer bursts mark surprising turns and recall similar moments in classic Hip-Hop jams or even tracks from Detroit's Anthony Shakir or Robert Hood- two of Jesse's production heroes. The 'Driving Past the Jail Mix' incorporates these synth stabs hypnotically within the melodic structure, while the 'Reduced Dub Mix' dials things back and focuses on the bass line, drums and dubbed out flourishes. With their funk driven momentum constantly moving forward, either mix will bring something unique to either a house or techno set. And finally 'Let Them Go' rounds out the group in a deep, yet still driving fashion. It splices sub bass pulses, a melancholic synth atmosphere, absurd bleeps and submerged voices amongst stripped down drums into a steadily building hybrid cut- not quite house and not really techno.

Penny Loafer comes as a strong combination of a striking bassline and harmonies, typical for Roland Appels idea of soulfull techno. Gonzo goes with the hunting bells and a shuffeling beat into a darker direction. The RMX transforms Gonzo into a techno monster, but let´s better say into a Recondite monster.

Honne Music is pleased to announce our next vinyl release (HMV04), once again a compilation of different artists; managing to put together a good musical variety for all tastes. On side A we have the old school teacher and legend Steve O' Sullivan with his track "Keep Me Waiting" which is a start to finnish master class and a perfect example of how to express multiple feelings through music. Complementing that side is our friend and incredible person RQZ with his track "Blow Out", touches of mystery and seriousness is what describe this track the best and of course a perfect groove to start heating up any dance floor. Side B start with another good friend from many years ago, Dot with his track "Against All Odds" a track with a lot of aggressiveness, sophisticated drums, dope and progressive bassline, and to finish side B we have a family member Louiv with "Thoughtful Moment" and as the name indicates, a perfect track to get you thinking about life, a track that makes you feel many emotions once you hear it, the power of the bassline and those subtle enveloping pads that go in and out throughout the track can transport you to any memory no matter how remote it may be.

From Gui Boratto's latest album - III' comes - This Is Not The End', an indie minded track that convincingly demonstrates Gui's impressive skill set when it comes to emotional narratives embedded in a distinctively monumental context. Like his timeless - Beautiful Life' and last year's album highlight - Destination: Education' (already remixed to perfection by Terranova and Tale Of Us), - This Is Not The End' features the beautiful vocals of Luciana Villanova, who seems to know exactly what makes Gui tick - which doesn't come as a surprise, as they are married - and possesses this rarest of all gifts, an unique voice that seems to address each listener personally.
In his own - 2012 Mix' featured here, Gui doesn't so much concentrate on the original's tearjerking qualities (which were already fully formed), but streamlines the arrangement for ease of use on the floor of your choice, making the track even more refined and addictive. Those of you looking for a slighty more adventurous approach will find their satisfaction with Michael Mayer's rework on the flipside, where the source material's hypnotic qualities are brought to the fore, resulting in a masterful slice of catchy prime time psychedelica. With both mixes turning out to be instant classics, we can definitely confirm that this is not the end.

When you listen to an Industrialyzer track, it doesn’t take long to figure out where his name comes from. These are soundscapes that instantly transport you someplace else, built for cavernous warehouses where regular rules don’t apply. The Portugal-born, Amsterdam-based producer born Ricardo Rodrigues maintains his consistent form on the Moonstone EP with four slamming tracks made for these very conditions.
The title track Moonstone beats you into oblivion with a relentless kick, distorted vocals relaying an urgent directive – “let’s get high” – and scuzzy, whipping synths. On Kontrol peals of synth cut through a thick mist of white noise and the ever-present kick, while one word, stuck on repeat, suggests the best kind of loss of “control”. Daily Nova is a more vibrant track, with housey chords laid over a pulsing beat to create a feeling of delicious unease. And on Psychic Overlays, Rodrigues wades back into darker waters in a pummelling peak time cut and assault on the senses. These are four pumping tracks perfect for sweaty techno bunkers.

We are delighted to present You our ¦rst vinyl release on Caleto Records. Our ¦rst artist on the label Jizz has a pleasure and chance na present you an exclusively his EP Jizz -Be there with remixes of his 2 orginal mixes made by Sakro and Juliche Hernande.

REPRESS: 'If you want something done right, sometimes you just have to do it yourself'. In a world filled with false gurus and misguided leaders, so goes the mantra of the New York duo Walker & Royce. After a swift rise in recent years - during which time they pioneered a sound that is often imitated but never replicated - Sam Walker and Gavin Royce have used this mantra as the impetus for their debut album 'Self Help', on their label home Dirtybird.

In order to grow, one often has to look inward, and the pair set out on a trail of self-discovery and advancement. Their journey has resulted in a diverse album that evokes a range of emotion and fervor, one that can be appreciated both on the way to a club as well as feverishly dancing to it in one.

Walker & Royce's signature production is in exceptional form on their solo tracks, such as 'Why Tho', 'Warkin It', 'Best Track Ever' and 'Sunday'. The way they contrast heavy, low-end bass and beats with pristine melodies arises from the first thing they ask themselves when they fire up their studio: 'Will we play this'

The pair has also continued to push the boundaries of their minted formula for a bigger purpose, enlisting several distinct vocalists and collaborators to captivating effect. The legendary Green Velvet lends his vocal talent to 'Rub Anotha Dub', and longtime friend Dances With White Girls appear on two memorable tracks, including the hit single 'Take Me To Your Leader'. Other collaborators such as Sophiegrophy, OnCue, Forrest and Mr. JPatt each introduce their own individual elements to the album, rounding out the varied tones and feelings that comprise the 'Self Help' masterpiece.

The road to self-discovery is filled with many bumps and obstacles, but with 'Self Help', Walker & Royce have proven that they've got the keys and in the driver's seat.

After huge releases on big labels like Apollonia, Rawax and many others iO (Mulen) is back to his main label dropping a big LP. The "Lucky Fish" album consists of three different vinyls full of killer grooves: between smooth deep house and techy bangers, cooked in unique iO (Mulen) style. These cuts were tested on dance floors around the world for a long time, so now we have no doubt that all of them are lethal weapons for any set. Hurry up, it's limited and of course vinyl only as always.

Johnny Hunter returns to Pleasure Club with a soundtrack to a summer that never happened.

Na Zrak Records presents its third vinyl release Various Artist called “Into the Cave” by herck, Bryz, Sebastian Eric and Djosh.
Them Genre propose is a kind of minimal with influences even techno characterized by the important groove. Surely it is a very recognizable sound and different from what is mainstream but we also like to involve artists coming from other musical worlds in our project, however, to try to give a product as colorful as possible of all the nuances that music can have.

The fifth edition of Defected’s vinyl series commits the labels biggest digital releases to wax, delivering upfront packages of house heat previously unavailable on vinyl. This springtime release delivers all the summer stompers you need on your sound system, with the A-Side featuring Ferreck Dawn, Robosonic & Nikki Ambers’ ‘In My Arms’ and Mat.Joe & Kid Enigma’s ‘Get Loose’; two sure-fire party starters. On the flip are two tracks from man of the moment OFFAIAH. First up is his collaboration with vocalist Cat Connors ‘Somewhere Special’, where the Las Vegas based artist delivers a deep, rolling bassline and tension-building drops. Up next is his 2018 smash ‘Push Pull’, another record ready to set the club alight this summer and beyond.

It is 20 years later and this record still stands the test of time.
I distinctly remember when this record dropped it was a huge game changer, and really put the thick tripped out sound of the West Coast on the map, and created a sound that would be imitated for a
while to come.

In the mid to late 90’s there were records by Dj Buck, Doc Martin, Leaf Recordings, Wicked, Come Unity etc that laid the foundation to this record by bringing the sound of the whole coast to the world. On “Hear Dis Sound” there was this perfect blend of the artwork done by Skribblez and this rich dubbed out party rocking set of tracks that captured something that had yet to be seen or heard on such a large scale as such a pivitol moment in the lineage of dance music.

This record opened so many doors for so many of us all over the world, whether you call it “West Coast house” or whether it fit into the new genre known as “Tech House” is irrelevant- it was a massive hit.
At the time this came out, I knew Hipp-e from the days of the underground rave circuit in North America from the 90’s and I didn’t really know Halo at all then as he was more a part of the midwest
North American scene, originally hailing from Chicago before moving to San Diego.

Their success was almost over night after this record dropped, they were a global phenomenon. About the same time Peace Division had also kind of honed in on this type of sound with a double pack, but their take- a more UK style and I think each others successes piggybacked each other. You literally had these 2 production duos pop out around the same time with a comparable vibe and people wanted more of this type of stuff to play, and thus that sound and movement was born. For the anniversary the original mix has had a set of remixes from artists who truly understand how to bring new life to this project. Each remix brings something new and unique to the legacy of this track. The first remix from the Romanian Duo- Livio and Roby has a very interesting modern,yet classic take.

The deepest and most musical of the package, this rendition ditches the dub elements for a more straight to the floor groove that develops into this vintage almost Larry Heard esque piano riff, string section accompaniment and rolling synth bass. Its a highly developed excursion into the real deep house sound from the 90’s. Next up we have Yoyaku and Irenic’s Roger Gerressen bringing us a warm rich percussive outing.

He himself is known for these deep stripped down drum grooves with ever evolving pads and dubbed out elements, so his take on this captures the feel of the original, perfectly melding it to his trademark
pads and shuffle hats that we have come to expect from this staple of the underground.

Parisian mainstay D’Julz does what he does best, forward driving bass, hints of dub, and this evolving groove that takes you on a journey style arrangement. I remember about 5 years ago I wanted a rip of this and he had one, its like fate that he remixed it.
Per Hammar bring forth his futuristic forward thinking approach to the project, tight clean production and that swirl of soundscapes often heard in the projects. His track builds and builds to this pivitol
breakdown that is sure to destroy any dancefloor, and swiftly right back into a nod to the original.

The head honcho at Fuse- Enzo Siragusa brings his signature style of pumping pulsating grooves sweet dichotomy of introducing lush chords in the breakdown. He then pulls it all back into the meat of
the track and back into the chords again. This rendition has a type of feel akin to a vintage Mood2Swing dub. This has a nice balance that would work amazing in a club setting or in an underground warehouse.

Following the huge success of the second release ‘Volar La Pluma’ (digital only), Ninetoes’ Head To Toe imprint once again turn to the founder to deliver another stellar production. Dropping also on vinyl, the collection comes with two remixes from Ezikiel and Berlin’s Oskar Jehlmann.

The original features a quirky melody which sticks with you throughout its entirety, partnered alongside the occasional string line entering the scene and a hydrid groove of breaks and house that combine with ease.

Ezikiel’s rework totally flips the melodic elements, scattering them over a more upbeat, minimalistic rolling house groove that grows and grows to create pure euphoric moments. Rattling snares enhance the builds in sublime form, leading you in to the final climatic drop.

The last of the three, Oskar Jehlmann’s version lowers the tone and ups the tempo, bringing the Berlin and warehouse vibes straight to the dance floor. Liquid rides and a thumping kick carry you over gritty bass hits before the original melody enters in a somewhat more stripped back form.

HTT003 continues the label’s path of delivering quality dancefloor driven underground dance music.

Ninze & Okaxy`s "Blurry Mind" , a frame of their impressions & work , as sine qua non for every listener, and a memory of all their travels over the past year.

Following up on the release of his first album in eight years, Agoria has collaborated with enigmatic French musician Jacques on new EP ‘Visit’, out 14th June.

The two-track offering pairs electronic elements with organic, real-world sounds to masterful effect. Title track ‘Visit’ is the best example of this, with a wonky beat trudging through a plethora of immersive sounds. Meanwhile ‘Jardin’, with a grooving bassline, has a greater dancefloor focus.

“The first time I met Jacques, we were sitting at the same table but we didn’t exchange any words,” Agoria explains. The second time, a year later, we started speaking. A lot. During hours. About Vipassana, a technique of meditation that you practice in silence. The third time, I thought I should share his words and breaths, delivering the untold. So I offered him to record a Sapiens Talk. The fourth time, we both agreed it was finally time to record music together.”

Jacques is a musician who pushes back the border between music, sound and noise, using music as a medium of expression on his quest of transversality. Invited to several TEDx conferences to talk about his obsession with the idea of infinity, he has also revealed his new theory called “Vortex”, which he created with Alexandre Gain in 2015.

His first album in eight years, Agoria described Drift as “sitting on your sofa between your guilty pleasure and your tasteful opinion”. The deeply melodic 10-track LP came off the back of a much-lauded Essential Mix for Pete Tong’s BBC Radio 1 show, which was later nominated for Essential Mix Of The Year.

The new release comes amidst Agoria’s first ever Ibiza residency, which kicked off on 31st May at the Blue Marlin. Named after the new album and featuring everyone from DJ Harvey and Gerd Janson to Groove Armada and Idris Elba, the unique day-to-night parties will take place every Friday until 27th September. He will also take his all new live show on tour this summer, with dates including Barcelona’s Primavera Sound, Belgium’s Pukkelpop and Lowlands Festival in Amsterdam.

Vuew’s artistic vision is to curate a platform where forward-thinking meets the arts of organic and detailed-orientated underground dance music that dominates Southern & Baja California. Lefthook and Paulo embody that vision with their Once in the West EP.

Once in the West is a personally creative collaboration between Lefthook and Paulo, two of our record label’s core members and close friends whose collaborative chemistry dates back to their audio engineering college classmate days.

This EP represents the summation of their musical development so far, imbued with their native West Coast House roots, love for creative technology, and passion for producing soulful, heavy funk-based music with purpose. The result is a blending of talents, artistic convictions, and a rare yet organic way of feelings things alike. This EP is full of emotion and energy. Made for the dance floor yet perfectly enjoyable at home just the same. Enjoy the vuew.

As we slowly creep out of social isolation, Isolate remain where they’ve always been: in their own unique lane, serving up majestic electronic music from their Istanbul HQ. And for this particular trip, the labels tenth and their first vinyl release, the Isolate bosses are
driving: Murat Uncuoglu & Alican.
‘No End’ starts the march. Stately, uplifting and just the right amount of triumph. It’s loaded with spiralling hooks that make you reach further than your arm’s length, make you look further than your eyes reach, make you hope more than conventional reality usually
allows. This is sound of post-lockdown dancefloors around the world.
‘Patchwork’ follows. A darker, prowling slab of pristine synth drama with a plucked bassline and all kinds of flourishing twirls and diversions, within seconds it ensures heads are down and bodies are locked into the groove. Don’t believe the title; this one’s seamless….
And so is the grand finale track ‘Big Wishes’. Signing out with a powerfully positive piece; ‘Big Wishes’ takes all the weirdness and tension of the last four months, screws it up tightly into a strange trippy ball then throws it so high in the air it turns to dust in the
atmosphere. A true set highlight that will have your crowd wondering what hit them.
Three immense stories, two articulate storytellers, one beguiling label. Isolate remain in their own unique lane.

Manchester based Rudosa has been around for almost a decade, quietly building a nice catalog of releases signed to Intec, Suara and Second State. Not to forget collecting multiple Beatport top 10s and support from iconic producers including Carl Cox, Adam Beyer, ANNA, and Amelie Lens. His no nonsense approach to Techno lead to this debut 4 track release on Terminal this September, after his debut on the labels VA earlier this year.
Opening with the title track ‘Heavy Rotation’, it’s an emotionally charged, acidic roller. Warehouse drums and wild open hats playfully minge with sharp pads, vocals and stabs. ‘Primo’ continues apace. Stadium-sized sonics and a kettle drum kick drive the track as it thunders on into the dark recesses of the club. ‘Delusions’ is a trippy, trancey cut. Wild melodics weave among the sparse percussive layers creating a softer, but no less engaging mid-set showstopper. Finally, ‘Adapted’ ties up the EP in epic fashion. A very rounded release package that offers a ton of energy with depth.

Next up for our 6th release we deciced to change it up and put together a VA with 4 different collab duo's each bringing a different vibe and style to the release!

Deep, soulful and techy treats by meaestro Eric Ericksson. Eric has been releasing his music since the early nineties on labels like Fragile and Planet E. In resent times Eric's music can also be found on Papa Records, Local Talk and Freerange, to name a few. An elegant four tracker that starts out with the uncompromising and crude track 'Greed', followed by 'Acquiescence' with it's sharp and classy shuffles, lush strings and big sounding pads. The flip side starts of with 'Totality'. Complete, raw sounding with morphing dubby stabs, combined with rough grooves and punching beats. The EP ends off with the pulsating, dreamy and sensitive track 'Closure'. Nothing is left by chance when Eric shows his vision and approach for modern electronic music.

Caposile Music is the label of the infamous Italian party of the same name. The first release is signed by resident DJ and co-owner Francesco Maddalena with a sick remix by one of their regular guest Traumer.

Plump is fat positive, sex positive, queer positive, feminist and anti racist with a focus on centering underrepresented and marginalized voices. Think feminist Ghetto Tech, uplifting while militant, raw and empowering. A place of refuge for everyone who has ever felt unseen or excluded no matter gender, colour or creed.

Plump is about an attitude and ethos, more than it is attached to a genre specific sound. Plump is about radical acceptance. Plump is a return to the origins of dance music as a space for people from all walks of life to be able to come together, embrace joy, pleasure and be free to truly be themselves.

Plump is a creative partnership and collaboration between Kevin Knapp and Jessica “Hutch” Hutcheson, AKA Hutchtastic. Hutch is a visual artist, vocalist, Detroit native, burgeoning producer and overall performer and art personality. Kevin Knapp is music producer, DJ and vocalist, with a slew of releases on formidable labels in the dance music industry.

Kevin also has a new streaming show on Dirtybird Live called Plump’d. The Plump’d livestream show originates from Berlin and is created by Kevin & Hutch.

Kevin says
"Plump'd is an opportunity I've been gifted in the wake of the world shutting down due to the pandemic. Life is funny that way when life closes some doors it opens others. I've been given the opportunity to host a show every Saturday night during the prime time slot, on Dirtybird's Twitch channel for Dirtybird Live. Each week my hope is to have artists I respect, revere, and consider a friend to come on and play some music with me, just for the love of the music. The show is named after our new record label and carries with it the label's ethos of going back to the roots of dance music as a place of radical acceptance."

Camea returns with the third release on her Neverwhere imprint, titled 'Vanish', this Spring. In her new single, she digs deep on her drum machine into Studio 1-esque territory, using alluring classic minimal techno grooves as a back drop for her seductively soulful, selfconflicted vocals. Camea not only captures a timeless micro-house vibe in this piece, but she continues to push her sound forward as well as her love for avant-guard techno. Up next is Delft imprint boss, LA-4A, best known for his analogue vintage Roland drum machine productions. He has laid down an irresistible 303 break-beat club mix of Camea's track in the A2 spot. His dance cut of her vocals over bass driven percussion is a perfect counter piece to the original, and compliments the sound from his recent acid techno album 'Phonoautograph'. On the flip side, Berlin techno legend and Ostgut Ton/Berghain resident Tobias. gives his graceful interpretation. He has reworked the original into a tasteful, dark, spacious 8-minute minimal techno piece, with percolating panning and filters on the vocals. As usual with Tobias., he clearly conveys his undeniable expertise and instinct for exquisite dance music. With this release, Camea is also marking the 2nd anniversary of her cult Neverwhere Radio show this Spring, having produced twenty-four, two-hour episodes with exclusive DJ mixes and guests. The show currently has residencies on Digitally Imported, Tsugi Radio and Ibiza Sonica, and Camea has quickly established herself as a driving force in the left-field techno community, and a passionate advocate of underground radio.

Ottavia Records comes with OTTEP10 from G.I.N.O. who was part of the duo “Code Deploy” (which released music on labels such as Budare). The first track is “Alucinogeno” plenty of atmospher sounds and groove which are mixed with smooth vocals. Then, Dj Honesty comes with an incredible "Alucinogeno" remix, a highly effective dancefloor cut in which you can find house vibes. For the 3rd reference, Franco Cinelli arrives with “Paramus” Remix, a track that will involve you from the beginning with solid bass lines and melodies, in an emotive deeper track. Finally Imperatrice & Groove Circus have versioned paramus and the result is a track plenty of groove and unexpected changes influenced by a music range from acid to minimal.

Dense & Pika's latest Drumcode release comes in the shape of a heavy four track EP, 'Calf EP'. The four tracks showcase Dense & Pika's signature industrial and dynamic style, each track bringing its own unique sound to the release whilst being unified by the sledgehammer intensity throughout. The release is laden with sporadic vocals, clanking samples and serious kick drums throughout - another heavy hitting, ear whipping release from Dense & Pika.

As connected arrives at its 3rd year of existence the team decided to make a selection of tunes through this time as a recap and as an opportunity to also turn some of the tunes into remixes.The remixes , including Olaf Stuut , Tim Engelhardt , Stefano Ritteri , Reboot and Moscoman will be released on vinyl alongside a brand new track from label heads Stereo Mc's and the first appearance on Vinyl of classic connected release 'Lust' by Tigerskin K.E.E.N.E and Elli (David Mayer Remix). The label has been building steam over the last few years with increasing vigour and the remix release follows the label ethic with a diverse and underground feel to it plus some strong club action. Included in the past releases is David Mayer , Re.You, Nandu , Florian Busse ,Aaaron ,Floyd Lavine ,Pôngo amongst others.

connected selected

1. Re.You - They Vibed feat. Lazarusman (Olaf Stuut Remix) Amsterdam native Olaf Stuut delivers a stripped down remix, that comes as a real musical journey. The track is mainly driven by a repetitive 808 drum beat, housed in an arrangement that is packed with sound design and work on the detail. With his latest releases Olaf has been exploring the borders between experimentation and club functionality, and so he's doing here. The original track is cleary recognisable by the distinctive voice of The Lazarusman, but Olaf creates a reinterpretation that is very pure, minimal and unique.

2. David Mayer - Drained feat.Sooma (Tim Engelhardt Remix) Tim Engelhardt's remix of David Mayer 2017 banger 'Drained' featuring vocalist Sooma goes straight to the dancefloor. The driving bassline and organic percussion create a strong foundation for the club. Giving a lot of room to Sooma's voice over the whole track and adding an atmospheric strings arrangement in the break, Tim manages to combine his musicality with pure club joy.

3. Aaaron , Hazel and Carolina Melean - Entropy (Reboots Entaclepuss Rework) Frank Heinrich aka Reboot delivers a remix in typical and well- known manner. Groove, groove and again groove, a lot of love for drum arrangements, plus a bit of weird modulation on the vocal are making up this great remix. This piece doesn't have a loud eccentric nature but grabs your attention over time and is not going to leave you until it's over. This remix of Aaaron's 2016 classic seems to be perfect for a Dj Set of smooth transitions where you just get lost in groove and rhythm.

4. Florian Busse -Jamieja feat.Lisette Santiago (Stefano Ritteri Turkish Rave Remix) Stefano Ritteri's first appearance on connected comes with a lean neo disco infectious rave workout which is taking the original to a completely new place. Mainly carried by a funky bassline and classy drum machine patterns, the flute-like synthesizer introduces an unexpected oriental flair to this remix. It feels like a daring undertaking which comes out great in the end.

5. David Mayer -Movement (Moscoman Remix) Moscoman's twist on David's 2017 release is a piece of playfulness in every aspect. Mainly made of repetitive marimba and xylophone melodies and classic house piano chords, this remix is giving a modern, timeless touch to the original track. You could call it an uncontrolled madness or the creation of a wild summer anthem.

6. Stereo Mc's- Light At (Original Mix) The ever elusive Stereo Mc's provide a new original track to the package that is driven by a dirty 8bit beat and comes as a analogue deep journey. A continuous hihat-loop keeps you on the rail here, on your way through fading snyth textures that create a very special atmosphere. Vocalist Rob is twisting his vocals with a daring, eastern melodic edge paving the way to a long hypnotic breakdown.

7. Tigerskin,K.E.E.N.E ,Elli - Lust (David Mayer Remix) Having spent most of 2017 on dancefloors worldwide and at the top of any club charts, here it is on glorious vinyl. A real classic on connected which deserves to be rediscovered again this year.

Adam Pits, what's not to love. It was a pretty easy decision for us to call the remixes in for a record that had everyone wafting. Firstly, for those of you that missed out last time around we figured it'd be a nice touch to have the original mix of "International Wafter" to kick us off. As they say, if it's nice - play it twice. Label mainstay and pal from across the pond, Ciel, takes the title track and entices us down the rabbit hole. Layering it up with an eery vocal and simply - we love it. Over on the flip Roza Terenzi turns in her signature hedonistic blend of future squelch and thumping 5am elbow burners. It'll get you going. Our lad, Seb Wildblood closes out proceedings with almost a prime era *cough* Innervisions *cough* peak time, low end, percussive blinder. It's really great. We will continue to waft, regardless of the weather.

Motordiscs is a various artists record serie created by the people behind Garage. The parisian club was shut down during summer 2018 but its spirit continues with Motordiscs: Putting artists together and promoting independant electronic music has always been the credo and is now continuing on records.

The releases goes both digital and vinyl. Motordisc 2 features tracks from Sascha Funke, Modular Project, Massimiliano Pagliara, Concret & Cantor.

Our fifth release comes again in the form of a three track EP. This time delivered by Stefano Di Carlo. The Ep is reflective of the early Italian Progressive movement hailing from Rome and spreading into the rest of Italy. The movement was created mostly by Di Carlo and his accomplices after returning from London where they where living for some years, producing house and techno. This unique sound lays in the grey zone that was created coming back from London, experimenting the new sounds before eventually moving into Progressive and Hard Trance. Stefano first started working in music production studios back in the 80's where highly acclaimed producers in Rome found in him exceptional skills in compositions and arrangements. The skills can without doubt be heard through much of his discography and the wonderful EP he wrote for us.
