Dam Swindle, Makèz, DJ Sneak, Elisa Elisa and more show you why The Round Up part 11 is a must-have for deephouse lovers.

2024 saw the return of real deep house to the clubs and with label hits like Makèz & Life on Planet’s release Running from the noise, Crackazat’s euphoric track ‘In the sky’ and Dam Swindle’s soulful bumper ‘Forever and Ever’, we know that there’s some serious heat available for this year’s Round Up.

We’re going into the 11th year of our annual remixes and we’ve got some tasty & unexpected combinations of artists. One of the highlights on this release is definitely Fouk’s remix of Elisa Elisa’s banger ‘Whistle me’. The original quickly gained support from many of the leading women in dance such as Shanti Celeste & Saoirse and we’ve now got Dutch duo Fouk with one of their best remixes in years by doing a complete flip on the warehouse vibe of the original. Their version is full of tropical whistles and percussion and cleverly detunes Elisa’s own vocal to match their style witha laid-back mood and heartwarming chords. This is the kind of track that transports you straight to a sunny beach where sunsets are the highlight of the day and dancing in the sand is all you wanna do.

Dam Swindle choose to remix DJ Sneak’s dark ghetto’esque track ‘I can tell you what you want’ and have turned it into a peak time garage monster with classic 909 elements, catchy vocal chops and a lead that soars through the track with relentless energy. This is the kind of track that gets any house party going with it’s immediacy and extremely effective arrangement.

On the other side of the spectrum, there’s Kaap’s remix of Crackazat DJ Sneak’s remix of Makèz that show you just how lush deep house can be with dubby elements, beautiful synth work. Perfect for the warm up and after hours!

Makèz shows us why they’re one of the most exciting producers coming out of The Netherlands at the moment with their uplifting remix of Dam Swindle’s gospel-house tune ‘Forever and Ever’. Crackazat’s synth wizardry is evident on his summery remix of Fouk’s latin-inspired jam ‘Tapioca. Lastly we see Elisa Elisa show her signature big room & warehouse style as she turns last year’s festival hit by Kaap ‘Sereen’ into a bleepy acid affair.

There’s always a huge amount of support on the Round Up series from all across the board on radio, streaming Dj’s alike and this edition will be no different!

The Roundup part 11 is a showcase of the family we’ve carefully built with Heist and we’re proud to show you these reinterpretations of some of our favorite tracks of last year.

Have fun dancing to these and share the love,

Lars & Maarten

I need you is the second single for Dam Swindle’s album ‘Open’ and has the Dutch house masters in top form with a track that hints to modern UKG and crossover electronica acts like Barry can’t Swim. The hook from the lead is massive and the looped vocals of Haile Supreme (recently called the Ethiopian Curtis Mayfield by Timbaland) will stay in your head long after the song is over. With huge support for the first single Girl, this new single will surely build the hype towards the full album.

Cody Currie & Kapote together in the studio! Delivering a 4 track EP that connects proto-disco, neo soul, Chicago house beats and jazz funk in a very spontaneous, super catchy way.
Cody, the London multi-talent musician, and Kapote, the Berlin-based creative head of Toy Tonics have a lot in common. Both come from studying jazz, knowing different instruments, having played in bands, and at the same time being DJs with a huge passion and the skill to rock thousands of people every weekend at the Toy Tonics Jams with a wild mix of different music. They have what we call THE VIBE. Soulful, catchy, intense. When they play records at a party and when they work on tracks. Both play keyboards, bass, guitar, and drums. Both sing. And both have funny nicknames that journalists gave them: Cody Currie was called “the Tom Misch of House music” and Kapote the “Wes Anderson of electronic music”. Makes us laugh but also fits well. And yes: Both are a bit crazy... like every extremely talented musician.
