DJ Ethanol makes his debut on QRUK with Test Press EP, a heavyweight, release that fuses elements of UKG, Breaks and Electro through a transatlantic lens. Originally from the underground scenes of North Carolina, and now based in Edinburgh, DJ Ethanol brings a rugged, textural sound shaped by free parties. The title track is a driving cut that layers industrial percussion, acid stabs and fractured vocal chops into something raw and unpredictable.

On remix duties is UK veteran UMT, whose decades-deep history in Garage and Breakbeat culture informs a stripped-back, sub-loaded take on the original. With recent support from the likes of DJ EZ, Quest and J:Kenzo, his remix lands somewhere between 2-step swing and minimal pressure, tailored for low-ceiling D-floors.

Berlin-based record label Woodland Creatures return with a sprawling remix compilation, ‘Rising Despite Circumstances: Remixed’, curated by London-based producer Adam Gillett...Our standout remix is Benito's version of ‘Like An Animal’. A downtempo voyage into dream house, space-echoed frequencies with dubbed-out drums. From the second minute, the remix spirals into a soft cyclone of memory triggered by a hypnosis of chord progressions, floating like a cumulus cloud.

For the label’s latest release, Oath is proud to welcome into the fold Art-Aud and Secret Rave founder and producer extraordinaire Kreggo, who serves up his one-of-a-kind blend of stylistically boundless sounds and evocative, thought-provoking atmospheres….

Since 2014, Kreggo has carved out a significant trajectory across electronic music, via both his signature productions and via the highly lauded Art-Aud imprint. His craft and vision are found throughout his productions, which weave elegantly from morphologic IDM and Acid numbers through to hypnotic, expressive Breaks, Bass and Techno. Stylistically, he allows the winds of change to flow through his music, with every release showcasing new motifs and ideals that align effortlessly with what came before. This continual building out of his sound has helped to craft a unique and progressively engaging musical universe, one that contains such intricacies and depth that it borders on the exquisite. His sound has seen him release on some of the most prominent labels going, including the likes of Furthur Electronix, Nottetempo, Nous’klaer Audio, and Clone, to name but a few. His helming of Art-Aud has overseen some extraordinary releases, which have often left trailblazing marks across the underground and are testament to his passion for building the imprint’s sound and identity.

‘Labi Inside’ comes with the drums and bass getting the pulses immediately racing. The groove skips and steps with glee, creating an immediately transfixing rhythm which the melodic features begin to wash over and occupy the in-between spaces. The track naturally evolves through time, with new percussive elements and emotive features worming their way into the mix. It's a groover that has such heart and soul intertwined deep within, and as the phases roll on and on, a sense of perpetuity kicks in as the track lingers long in the memory. ‘Obabi’ comes next, and like with the EP opener, this one unravels into life. A pulsating rhythmic undercurrent sets the stage for piercing, deep-set notes and hums, which interchange at will within a hypnotic melange. The mid-point breakdown allows the track to reset, before billowing back into life with its wondrous synergy intact.

Kreggo has always presented music that exudes warmth, ingenuity, and space for sonic evolution, and it's an approach that has served up some special moments within his production career. ‘Altro Mood’ is the latest incarnation of his sound, where rhythmic mazes interlock with enticing, deftly collected melodic features, with each track revamping and building upon one another. It's an auditory narrative that is as broad as it is concise, as bold as it is gentle, and as energised as it is meandering - and represents an experience that will linger long in the memory…..

New Delhi DJ and producer Venky continues to rise through the global underground with Show Me 
Love, a hi-NRG 2-track EP and his debut release for HE.SHE.THEY. Records, out the 21st of August. 
Show Me Love follows a string of career-defining moments for Venky. His tribal-infused 2024 
collaboration ‘Leleko’ with Janika Tenn climbed the Beatport charts, while recent track, ‘Keep It 
Strong’ with Parallel Voices increased the heat with its deep, emotive groove. His 2021 cut 
‘Clairevoyance’ on tastemaker imprint Dynamite Disco Club proved a turning point, cementing his 
place in India’s blossoming underground revival. 
Over the past few years, Venky has become one of India’s most trusted selectors, sharing booths with 
Spencer Brown, Because of Art, Just Her, Bebetta and gracing the decks at  venues across Delhi, 
Goa, Bangalore and beyond. His remixes (including 2021’ take on Roger Sanchez’s ‘Lost’) have drawn 
praise from heavyweights including Fatboy Slim, Benny Benassi, Catz 'N Dogz, Tita Lau, and Pretty 
Pink - along with a guest feature on Sanchez’s Release Yourself radio show. 
Rooted in the foundations of house and techno, Show Me Love marks a step into new sonic terrain 
and captures the hi-NRG spirit that has made Venky a standout in India’s electronic scene. Driven by 
crisp percussion, lush synths, and emotive vocal samples, the release reflects Venky’s growing 
reputation for dancefloor heat with depth. With his finely tuned sense of tension, groove and 
euphoric payoff, this is music made to move you - on summer rooftops, or late night city missions. 
Opening and title track ‘Show Me Love’ sees Venky push into harder, experimental territory. Blending 
cinematic strings with hard-edged synths and a stirring vocal hook, the track walks the line between 
tough and tender, showcasing his evolution as both a producer and performer. ‘Live In The Moment’ 
expands the emotional palette. Built on sharp vocal chops and a deep, bouncing low-end, it’s a track 
designed for connection - between friends, strangers, dancers. The EP also includes club-ready edits 
of both tracks. 
Venky says: 
“This EP is a real departure from my usual style. I was experimenting with new sounds, trying to 
recreate something I’d heard online, but it ended up evolving into something totally different. Each 
track has its own unique vibe for different moments on the dancefloor,  ‘Show Me Love’ brings fun, 
dreamy summer energy, while ‘Live In The Moment’ is dirtier, groovier, and built for peak time. 
They’re not your typical ‘Venky’ tracks at first listen, but they still carry the funky drums, catchy 
vocals, and sweet melodies I always try to include.” 
A regular presence at India’s underground clubs and festivals, Venky brings a sound that’s both 
classic and cutting-edge, rooted in house and techno but driven by global influences and local heart. 
With releases on 303lovers, Stealth Records, Simma Black already under his belt, and now 
HE.SHE.THEY., Show Me Love is Venky entering a pivotal new chapter, one that bridges the energy of 
India’s underground with the momentum of the international scene.

“The difference between a painter and a musician is one of time. A painter paints space, a musician composes time.” - Gertrude Stein
