A total of 10 tracks and 11 artists with the one collaboration on the release, ARTCORE Miami Music Week 2025 will be released on Thursday the 3rd April. Whilst welcoming back artists on the VA who have already released on the label including Joel Bird and AD7USTMENT. This release focuses on a lot of new names to both the industry and label.

Ida Engberg needs no introduction, the Swedish producer and DJ began her career, at the age of 13 spinning vinyls. With a residency In Ibiza under her belt, and countless plays for Tomorrowland, Awakenings, Ultra Music Festival and more, she makes her debut on ARTCORE with opening track 'Free Your Mind'. Richly cinematic, meticulously designed and filled with frenetic urgency, the pacy melody soon succumbs to a chilling ambience which settles atop its low-end elements. 

Rising Italian DJ/producer, Giacomo Dianz and his track 'Feel The Sound Around.' A nervous inception that begins with a chattering, panning vocal becomes fraught with brittle snares, jittering cymbals as well as tripped out a chord progression that creeps alongside. 

Andrea Marino -also a member of Germany metal band Emigrate, which no doubt has influenced the use of his stings inspired industrial aggression on his track 'The Plug Pt 2'. Delivering a choice of hard-style flavours, he merges a twisted groove with a distorted vocal presence to add a tough groove to proceedings.

The mysterious and brand-new duo, Sinnerstraxx pay homage to ARTCORE's fanbase with their track 'Warriors'. A sample taken from the cult movie of the same name features heavily within a fervent psy-charged soundscape of twinkling, morphing melodics, and drilling LFO fills to produce an undoubtable club-ready weapon.

A career of 20 years, North Italian producer KAT3X, works with a hybrid DJ set of missing samples, loops and effects with Traktor and Ableton Live or CDJs, permitting him to create different sounds for every set. He has played alongside Chris Liebing, The Advent, Oscar Mulero, Speedy J and many more, plus runs his own label KATEXIS. His track 'Number' is an intriguingly strung-out rhythm that catches your attention from the off thanks to a jack-hammer bass that pummels aside an array of giddy rave motifs. 

AD7USTMENT is on hand with ‘Doberman’. The German producer who has released on labels including Planet Rhythm, Kneaded Pains, Suara and Odd Recordings. This new track brings the heat, and high-octane energy ARTCORE is known for. A frighteningly fierce composition, it features a rhythmic drive aside complex percussive elements to cause eyeball spinning velocity from beginning to end.

French DJ and head of OIZ Records, Onelas takes no prisoners with his menacing VA effort, 'Vicious Circle.' Following a piercing, drawn-out hoover synth that contorts and coerces itself into the beat comes at hunderous percussion, a disconcerting bleeping and a wave of abstract melodics to cause a state of continuing flux. His latest releases have been featured on NineTimesNine, Reckless, NowNow and Blackworks.

UK duo, Exceed from Manchester and Liverpool have coined their name for their ability to 'go beyond what is allowed or stipulated'. Signing tracks to NineTimesNine, doof, Barbed and Innergate, they make their debut on ARTCORE with 'Revelation'. Delivering a tightly pieced together number which incorporates a stirring synth and bass lead with breaks style percussive fills that rattle, roll and explode sporadically.

Welcoming back Joel Bird to the label, as his last release was on the last Miami VA in 2024, the London based young producer, is also training to be a commercial pilot! His track 'All I See Is Ochre' is a complex piece in which the narrative is told through smart measures of static pulses and blasts of phasers to present a cosmic rush of analogue wonder. With his music supported by KI/KI and Theo Nasa, we couldn't think of a better way to close out this release.

Premiere: TASSERY "Shifting Horizons" - Comme dans les films

Lola Cerise was always destined for a career in music. Growing up in France, a young Cerise would spend her formative years learning the piano before the lure of hard beats and illegal parties introduced her to a culture that would change her life forever. 

Renowned for her ability to seamlessly merge only the toughest of dance codes during her boundary pushing live sets, Lola Cerise’s music embodies her storied personal history comprehensively. It’s this impassioned energy that courses through her DNA that’s fuelled her music making earning her releases on Gomboc Records, Comme des les films, Khazad Records and Record Union as well as appearances on important channels such as, HÖR Berlin and BCCO. 

After performing on numerous line-ups together, Lola Cerise is now set to debut on Indira Paganotto’s formidable ARTCORE Records imprint with ‘I Don’t Speak German’ EP which will land on 15th May. 

Opening track, ‘Stop Stealing My Socks’ begins somewhat outlandishly with Lola Cerise packing a fantastically diverse palette of effects into an otherwise tense soundscape of charging drum fills and spaced-out pads that provide the foundations to this hallucinatory, shapeshifting melody. On ‘Less Cheese In My Raclette’, the wonderfully cartoonish energy continues as fierce breakdowns meet a mix of ‘downer’ synth lines that frivolously dance and skip whilst a whirring siren bass relentless churns beneath fierce, snappy and gnarling percussion. 

It’s clear that Lola Cerise’s has channelled her playful side into her debut ARTCORE EP as she forges on with the peculiar (but still incredibly fitting) track titles. When ‘Is That What You Wanted Mummy’ begins it brings with it an ‘edge of chaos’ suspense as unrestrained measures of high-octane, psy-infused techno rumble ominously whilst the arrival of a manic vocal sample busts opens the door to a cacophony of far out, low-end elements. As the EP tips into the second act, ‘EROTOMANIA’ emerges to a chorus of war-ready chanting whilst a fierce medley of thick kicks, pulsing bass and droning chord notes interrupt proceedings to form the track’s core before even more of the guttural vocal components that opened the track are reintroduced. A metallic, clunking opens ‘Humans Smell Rain Better Than Sharks’ before the track breaks and unfurls into a speedy but creeping composition defined by its spidery synth arrangements, coarse cymbals and ruggedly chopped vocal components. 

Closing out this ingenious off-centre EP is ‘You Look Ugly When You Drink Whiskey’ which urgently sets off using a combination of eccentric overtones, breathless vocal components and effervescent percussive drive that perilously thunders through a dramatic series of energy shifts to see out the release in a vibrant, off the wall style.

Earlier this year, ARTCORE took another bold step into a new and innovative direction with the first release of its DUO series. So far Avan7, Becker, Interactive Noise, Marhu, Valentinø, Giorgia Angiuli and BEC have all featured as part of this new concept – in which two artists are selected to feature on one EP.

ARTCORE DUO IV see’s CHRS and SUMIA join forces, with 2 tracks each to be released on the 5th June. CHRS, a Sicilian artist who is no stranger to the label, is also a resident and label manager of Phase 2. With shows this year in his home of Catania, Phase 2’s Festival as well as Hi Ibiza, his sound is trace, with groove and experimental touches, all elements he’ll add to an exciting remix planned for a historic artist later this year. 

SUMIA, also known as Turkey’s “Princess Of Hard Dance”, is the founder of charity event ‘Stronger Together’ and the Volx community Records owner. She says her sound is currently evolving, and this release leans more towards a trance/bounce direction, whilst she embarks on a new concept to perform her own tracks totally live during her DJ sets at some of her upcoming shows this summer in Rome, Serbia and Japan.

SUMIA opens the release with ‘Kill Mia’. An alarm like synth provides the foundation of the melody which begins with the classic ‘trill’ transition accompanied by rotating bass notes, shotgun claps and whispering vocals.

CHRS employs the incredible vocals from Revia on ‘Missing Pieces’. The track showcases his trademark sound, with a pacy concoction of supercharged percussive power and thrumming pad effects open before the soulful vocals begin to flow to provide nuance, whilst a potent core of dramatic synth fills rumble coldly beneath.

SUMIA didn’t earn her title of her ‘Hardcore Princess’ by accident. On ‘Fisiltiar’, she expertly fuses fierce bass chops and imposing drums with a reverberating, siren like effect. But, out of almost nowhere, a charming stringed chorus intercepts before the melody takes its final drop and bursts with shockwaves of electric musicality.

CHRS closes the release with ‘Inside The Heart’. A venture into drum n bass / neurofunk territory, offering an adrenaline fuelled ride through a counter-current of amen drum patterns, melancholic stabs and serene, euphonious vocal elements. A beautifully linear soundscape that delivers a whole new and welcome audio experience for the ARTCORE faithful. 

ARTCORE DUO IV featuring tracks from SUMIA and CHRS will be released on ARTCORE on the 5th June.

In 2022, Indira Paganotto established ARTCORE with a clear vision in mind. The primary aim behind creating this label was to acknowledge and elevate the unique sound associated with Indira, which, until then, had not found a suitable representation in any existing label. It's widely recognized that this distinctive sound has been gaining rapid popularity and is finally receiving the recognition it rightfully deserves.

However, it's essential to note that ARTCORE will not be confined to a single genre. Instead, the emphasis will be on preserving authenticity and ensuring high-quality musical output. The label will serve as a platform that celebrates artistic expression, relevance, and musical heritage. Also, ARTCORE enables the opportunity for artists to be mentored directly by Indira is at the core of ARTCORE.
