After a brief lockdown-prompted hiatus - Duncan Forbes and his new 49North imprint, return for their 3rd outing... a 4-track EP, made up of 2 DF originals and a remix of each. One from the universally revered UK House & Techno don, Mr G; and the other courtesy of Pépe - without doubt one of the most in-demand artists on the underground right now.

The neon-lit, analogue House of 'Bluer Than Blue' kicks things off - it's liquid melodies and propulsive rhythm reeling you right in from the get-go.

'The Next Step' meanwhile, is a vast and sonoros, breakbeat-driven beast - chocked full of otherwordly atmosphere and an alluring sense of the mystical.

Close pal and DF collaborator - Mr G, then takes the shimmering, multi-color heart of 'Bluer Than Blue' and distills it down into one super-tight, bare-bones, swing-loaded roller; topped off with a seductive whispered vocal, skating rides and a perfectly-poised low-end lead.

That is before Pépe wraps things up with his unique spin on 'The Next Step'; for which he keeps the signature mood more or less intact - but brings a more euphoric, wide-eyed optimism to proceedings, as well as an inspired ethereal-meets-junglist central character.

PREMIERE: Duncan Forbes - The Next Step (Pépe's 'Find Courage From Fear' Version)

We’re so excited to announce our next release on Radical New Theory from none other than  LUXE. 
Her debut EP ‘Belonging’ caught our attention a few months ago and we haven’t stopped playing it since. 

It’s been amazing having already had support from 6music with several plays of A83 from Mary Anne Hobbs over the last week. 
LUXE’s first release on RNT is off to a flying start and we’re so excited for what the future holds for her. 

LUXE - Belonging ep is available now, across all platforms as well as a vinyl pre order on our bandcamp page.
