----------
'The back end of summer will see Italian DJ and producer Christopher Ledger inaugurate his own Hidden Folder label. A new and innovative project that will see Christopher enter uncharted territory embracing the versatility of his sound by releasing various strains of emotive house and progressive, entities which can also be found in his sets in recent times. The 001 release wanders through four distinct cuts from Ledger (one of those digital only), and in addition, there is a classy and uplifting remix from Danish producer C.K, a key member of the famous 2 Bit Crew. 

The opening track “Initialization” is constructed upon tight and punchy drum patterns, conversing perfectly with the elasticated bass line that drives the track. Melt in your mind synths glistening throughout. The aptly named “Lunar Empathy” enters the room next, an enormous energy is created by the Rome-based beatmaker. Dusty nostalgic drums and plucky bass change-ups make this a journey for the moments. 

“A Deeper Thought” leads the way on the B side, an intricately arranged quest, transcending its listener, but yet still moving the dance floor. A beautiful combination of depth and drive, a key component of Ledger’s current sound. C.K remixes “A Deeper Thought” steering it in a new direction, and inspirational house exploration looking to lift the vibe, oozing with feel-good energy. Sitting as a digital-only track is the irresistible groove, “Logical Form”, a playful and animated addition to the EP, which will sit comfortably within collections far and wide this year. 

Landing on wax with a limited press of 40 copies and on digital, Christopher embarks on an exciting new chapter of his career, further cementing himself as a stand-out producer of modern times, never shying away from straining the boundaries of his sound and implementing this all into his craft as a DJ.'

When DJ Life gives you lemons, press ‘em on vinyl. 4 zesty tech house nuggets bringing the swing and vitality in a big way.

Keeping it widescreen throughout and the percussion pulls focus. At times slick and sultry, at others more ominous and ill-tempered, we’re dishing out high-velocity dynamics across four distinct trax. Constantly nudging towards the peak-time, but with plenty of breathy sensuality and dappled melody as he flexes a detailed, sound-sensitive approach.

Drums, drums and more drums. You know the deal by now: direct torque in full effect as we traverse the rugged, funked-out and percussive. Plenty of trippy flourish for good measure too, from humid fusions of rainforest FX and hallucinatory detail to light trail synths punching through inky abyss.

It all recalls Terry Francis’ and his Housey Doingz project at the peak of their powers. Big stabs, big forward momentum. Think the golden era of their Wiggle parties circa 1999.

House it up !

House Flava - The Remixes welcomes @ohpeach & @iamcarista to the label for a special Remix Chunk Deluxe. Two slick and sexy sonic additions to Chunkers.

House Flava was a summer ’24 highlight and epitomised Cromby’s special touch in the studio, nominated for Track of the Year by DJ Mag, heavily supported on BBC Radio 1 and was a go-to for countless artists including Job Jobse, Chloe Caillet, NIKS, Moxie and Midland among many others.

“For myself and Cromby, plus all our friends – House Flava soundtrack pretty much all of 2024. As soon as Chris made it, he sent it to me and we immediately knew it belonged on the label. It was a Chunker. The record came out at the end of last summer, so we spiced it up with a couple of insane remixes from two of our favourite artists ahead of Summer 2025. I’m obsessed with both remixes and can’t stop playing them,” shares Sally.

A big supporter of the original, Canadian selector Peach brings bags of trippy energy to her ‘House Flava’ remix. Stripped back, pumping and full of low-end swing, this is simultaneously a classic tech house roller, that packs plenty of woozy tribal energy. “There is only one Peach, her energy, quirkiness and skills behind the decks and in her productions are unmatched. She’s taken a super sexy rolling take on the original which melts into your ears and out of the speakers.”

Dutch powerhouse Carista is next up on re-rub duties. The United Identities label founder takes this into eerie after-hours territory, with a dynamic cut marked by subterranean bass stabs and a sinister lead, while retaining sections of the original vox. Perfect for those long sessions when things go a little wonky. “Carista is an absolute power house. Her productions are heavy hitting, drum and acid focused bangers with a slick simplicity we love at Chunkers. Her remix is just that – heavy chunk has arrived!” Sally buzzes.
