Cahoots Records continues their beloved artist series with Guy Johnson. After releasing a crowd favorite 'Chavanu' on their last V/A record, his Borneo Bongo EP packs four drops, each reinforcing his unique style. Guy's release represents a dark and mysterious journey, deep in the jungles of Borneo.

"Behind the breathing grass 
When the night whispers
There are blaring sounds
And shouts of all hues
The dawn is red tiger camo 
We're lost in mother nature 
Borneo bongo has been awaken 
Transcend the jungle of danger"

Cahoots Records Volume 2 explores unchartered house frontiers with new and profound tracks from Volta Cab, Ange Siddhar, Jeremy Juno and Mulla. With their sophomore release, Cahoots makes room around the campfire to welcome new artists who have traveled from distant sonic realms, bringing their deluxe-deep and hard-hitting beats. 

A powerful Dutch artist, Mulla, closes out Volume 2 with 'Smack Back', a raw and stripped back basement anthem. Inspired by classic house and techno, Mulla's clattering snares and cymbals pack a punch as Smack Back's sub-heavy bassline gives warmth and life to the groove. Mulla has emerged as an integral factor in the current underground house scene in Amsterdam by piloting the Natives and Kreativ nights at clubs including Studio 80 and Chicago Social Club. Mulla is also co-founder of the Nomads Festival and helps run Kreativ Amsterdam, a prominent booking and creative production agency.
