Welcome to the 20th label release for @PuzzleProjectsMusic brought to us by Italian 🇮🇹 producer Ranka & British 🇬🇧 producer Ben Spalding.

After the triumphant ‘The Ego Death’ EP with @RonaldChristoph, label boss @BenSpaldingOfficial returns to @PuzzleProjectsMusic with another dynamite dancefloor collaboration, this time teaming up in an electric partnership with promising Italian artist Ranka.

Their first offering is the original deep slice of acid mind-melt titled '9AM Madness.'

The deceptively simple track is an immediate winner, combining a perfect reverb-heavy beat, a neatly filtered tribal conga line, and delay-laden disco claps, '9AM Madness' properly announces itself after 90 seconds with an acid flex and sizzling hi-hats. And it's some entrance, thanks to that bassbin-wobbling, almost narcotic bassline. 

From there the intensity slowly builds through spoken word snippets and cleverly panned percussion creating a wonderfully hypnotic deep groove. The artful suspense finally gives way to a truly hedonistic breakdown: all sunrise melodies, dropped beats, and that slamming acid break creating a euphoric hands-in-the-air crescendo. 

Straddling the genre gap between tech-house, deep house, and acid, the aptly named '9AM Madness' is perfect sunrise material for the wide-awake and wonky club. But thanks to its restrained structure, it's equally adaptable as a set opener or a mid-set thumper. 

With support from some of the major heavyweights in the scene, 9AM Madness will without question, be a main fix in track libraries of the tech & deep house scene.

Stay focused for the next release which sees a return for Dan Ros with a solo single showcasing his unique deep tech house style.

Welcome to the 22ND label release for @PuzzleProjectsMusic brought to us by Italian 🇮🇹 producer @FlavioMPMusic & British 🇬🇧 producer @BenSpaldingOfficial.

PuzzleProjectsMusic continues its prolific run with this potent double trouble package featuring label head Ben Spalding and Italian dynamo Flavio MP. The PuzzleProjectsMusic & @HOT-GROOVERS label boss has been on fire through 2021 with a consistent series of @Beatport top 100 releases in their respective genres, alongside overseeing the rapid growth of the two labels and the talented collective of artists which has led to critical acclaim from publications such as DJ Mag and support from major artists across the genres of Disco, House & Techno worldwide.

Flavio MP – now heavily involved with both labels is a seasoned artist, who has travelled the globe to play at iconic events such as Love Parade, featuring alongside some of the world’s best-known underground acts. Together they have produced a double-header that features two unusual, yet exquisitely produced dance floor weapons. 

The release kicks off with 'Funkster', a hard-hitting tech-house stomper with hefty beats and an equally meaty bassline. An extended intro builds the tension sky high before descending into a dense, powerful cut. Fans of hugely popular US series Breaking Bad will recognise the samples, which are amplified by the murky rolling atmosphere. Razor-sharp percussion slices through the thick low end, warped laughter and, vocals join drum rolls to pump the track full of energy. Ben and Flavio utilising key design elements to keep the energy and tension ebbing and flowing throughout, to great effect. 

On the flipside, we have 'Stop Talking', which uses sampled dialogue from another iconic character - Tony Montana from Scarface. The morose atmosphere complements the infamous lines uttered by Al Pacino, nasty b-line throbs and the snares and hi-hats percolate in the top end. Again, Ben and Flavio take an unorthodox approach with this track, avoiding predictable linear programming to enliven the cut with fresh energy. Get ready for the switch up midway through, as the rhythm shifts and morphs into new territory. 

With two cuts that ooze originality and playfulness, both telling a story from start to end, Ben Spalding and Flavio MP have crafted an EP that is sure to inject fresh energy into the dance floor. Refusing to play by the rules, they have carved out their distinct niche and as we speak, they work on more material.

Next up on PuzzleProjectsMusic sees the rampant Mexican tech house talent @FernandoArceMusic team up with @BenSpaldingOfficial for the very tasty summer tech house bomb ‘Rude Groove.’

Welcome to the 23RD label release for @PuzzleProjectsMusic brought to us by British 🇬🇧 producer @BenSpaldingOfficial and Mexican 🇮🇹 Producer @FernandoArceMusic.

Straight off the back of their DJ Mag Spain print and digital feature on the label, @PuzzleProjectsMusic continues to flourish and impress with each new diverse release, this time we get a smoking hot serving of sumptuous tech house courtesy of label head Ben Spalding 🇬🇧 and PPM family member Fernando Acre 🇮🇹 with mastering by German wizard @ChristianBurkhardt.

‘Rude Groove’ is an absolute belter with sophisticated drum programming and a rumbling bassline that rolls along at a deceptively fervent pace. The overall feeling is grimy and lascivious with an outrageously hypnotic woodblock giving raw rhythm and vocals given a church hall vibe that works perfectly taking the crowd up to peak-time or entering the deeper part of the night.

The low end is morose and gives the whole track its ‘dirty’ feel. A huge breakdown around the two-minute mark injects the cut with irresistible energy, while the beats pump and bass rolls out with vigour. 

The song stands its own without question but has also been deliberately mapped out for live improvisation with samples and acapellas to be added and for DJs to get creative with it.

Next up sees @RonaldChristoph return to the label with his long-awaited next co-production with @BenSpaldingOfficial – the release being the monster peak-time techno banger ‘Lost Soul’.

Welcome to the 24TH label release for @PuzzleProjectsMusic brought to us by German Producer @RonaldChristoph & British producer @BenSpaldingOfficial.

After their debut release together - The Ego Death EP receiving critical acclaim from the cream of the scene, the pair return to PuzzleProjectsMusic with their next release - the single ‘Lost Soul’.

‘Lost Soul’ (PPM0039) is a narcotic, sleazy cut made for all the late-night lurkers. This one has sweet yet emotive vocals from Ronald uniquely combined with a nasty bassline and hypnotic rhythms worthy of the sweaty basement at Turnmills. It evokes images of that peak-time of the night when all inhibitions have been shed and the ravers are united as one, no phones, no posing, lost souls enthralled with the music. 

Unusual effects are incorporated, such as a clipped saxophone and trippy vocal edits to add depth and nuance to the track. As it progresses, the vibrancy increases steadily, with considerate production techniques adding subtle elements and the vocals evolving into an extended volley of lyrics.

A trademark Spalding and Christoph breakdown ensues, before we’re thrown back into the mix with crisp hi-hats joining the fray. The unashamedly big room track is yet another high-quality firecracker, expertly-produced ready for a big system and hungry ravers.

The future will see the pair deliver more powerful tracks that have been in the works over the last year.

Next up on @PuzzleProjectsMusic sees an exciting debut on the label for trailblazing Mexican Artist @Hotmood with a killer three-track EP featuring a superb remix from the rising Parisian star @FunkeeSoundsMusic.

Ben Spalding, an endlessly creative DJ, producer and record label owner, is the man behind the PuzzleProjectsGroup.

PuzzleProjectsGroup is home to a number of mini brands dedicated to creative industries and creative arts. These include a 360-degree artist agency, the hugely successful online artist feature series & record label PuzzleProjectsMusic, plus the rapidly growing Nomadic party concept Puzzled. Underpinning all his work is Ben’s love and support for the underground music scene & the artists within it.

A Londoner now based in Norway, Ben has managed & performed at music events in 35 countries since 2012 including Coachella in California. As well as playing countless traditional parties in bars, clubs and beaches, he has DJ’d less conventional venues including abandoned rooftops, multi-storey car parks and boats. 2019 proved to be a huge year for Ben as solo act bookings and Puzzled shows took him on a 19-country world tour in nine months, playing sell-out shows across Europe, Asia & Australia.

While 2020’s schedule has been put on hold due to the Coronavirus pandemic, plans are in place for a 2021 American tour including eight Puzzled shows in eight states alongside PuzzleProjectsMusic artists. Plus solo gigs either side in Mexico and Canada with repeat Europe & Asia tours to follow later in 2021.

Musically, Ben grew up on a diet of Motown, Soul and Disco from his Mum and classical music via his Dad, while in his teenage years he discovered the raw power of Hip Hop and Drum’n’Bass. His 20s were then a riot of Disco, House and Techno.

That musical upbringing informs his DJ sets. Ben doesn’t stick to one genre, preferring to play lengthy sets, starting with slow, soulful Boogie & beatdown classics and edits, moving into infectious Disco, Nu-disco and House territory before upping the tempo with various shades of deep, high-energy instrumental-led House and driving, hypnotic Techno. But like all good artists, Ben can adapt to every crowd, show and venue.

He meticulously hunts for lost classics and lesser-known productions. And adds depth and layers to his sets via acapellas, samples, film clips & other found sounds alongside a unique sample library recorded by bands, artists and musicians.

The musical journey is set to expand even further in the next year, with Ben releasing music under his own name and his pseudonym ‘Professor Puzzle’ plus an ongoing collaboration with one of Berlin’s top producers.

Welcome to the 13th label release for @PuzzleProjectsMusic.

Aimed squarely at the dance floor & with mastering by @Christian-Burkhardt & @JanDriver, the latest PuzzleProjectsMusic release comes in the form of a fully original debut release from label head - UK 🇬🇧 producer @BenSpaldingOfficial & @RonaldChristoph- the renowned German 🇩🇪 musician and producer.

The duo struck up a prolific partnership, with a number of tracks produced in just a few days of studio time. The creative chemistry led to a batch of cuts that project visceral energy, designed to get people moving. With particular attention given to the sound design, these tunes are ideal for massive rigs. These are weapons-grade rave tracks full of dynamism and energy lingering between Acid House & Detroit Techno.

First up is 'Thumper' (PPM0022) which lets us know exactly what this release is all about - the rave. As the title suggests this one stomps all over the dance floor, early rave influences pulsate through its bloodstream, with a slammin' bassline, adding in a streetwise vocal sample and inject riotous energy with an unusual, yet highly effective breakdown. 

Next up is 'Burning It Down' (PPM0023), which ensnares you from the off with its alluring bassline. A sensual, acid-flecked cut, 'Burning It Down' features two distinct vocals, one male and one female, both describing a 'dance floor made of matches'. Later, the male voice narrates a late-night tale, as old school piano keys pepper the background. It's a wildly infectious start to the release with persuasive energy and rhythmic arrangement designed to put you into a state of musical hypnosis.

Ben Spalding and Ronald Christoph have cultivated a fruitful relationship in the studio, combining their respective experience and creativity to produce absolute dynamite. They have bonded with each other to maximum effect and blending their best ideas to create truly unique original grooves. Straight-up club vibes for diehard ravers. 

Expect big things to come from this pair in the coming years.
