Gladstone Deluxe is one of the most exciting musicians in the US right now. They make futuristic, deep, percussive yet smooth techno, deep house and electro. They also play timbales in NYC queer and trans salsa band Las Mariquitas, and are a frequent collaborator with fellow East Coast sonic trailblazers Kiernan Laveaux, Johnny Zoloft, and Mira Mira. They have released on Black Techno Matters, Data Disk, Misc, Innocent Music, How Things Are Made, and now Fixed Rhythms is excited to add to the Gladstone lore with their new offering, “No Haterade EP”.

A1 “Cleanse” is zippy tech-y house…think groovy, up-beat, sexy, like something you’d hear in a Titonton Duvante set. A2 is a remix, “Teakup - Where’s My Snare (Gladstone Deluxe Remix)”. Now the EP takes a turn towards psychedelic electro. Spacey trippy vocal manipulations, swelling deep space gravitational waves swelling and resolving. The B side opens with the “No Haterade” track. Arpeggiated electro that slaps with swagger. The final track is a longer, 9 minute driving deep housey techno tune. A bass line that you never want to stop, luscious pads, brain-tingling pings, melodic percussive synth runs, and a touch of acid.

If Gladstone is not already on your radar, take heed! Big tunes here!

5 in the clip as we ready a special VA release. Multiple artist biz with a tracklist reading like a who’s who of contemporary tech house operators.

Starting to get the impression these guys all have hard drives bottomless with heaters. Couple of heads making hasty returns after recent EP releases from DJ Life and Boss Priester, while Argentinian newcomer Guile and Sydney donnies Mtty and Pistaccio make their debuts respectively. 

Administering some proper dancefloor torque throughout. Groove-forward gear deftly balancing playfulness, heft and trippier flourishes like it's effortless. 

Everything's fine-tuned for maximum impact. Sci-fi flourish, ominous portent, even a hint of new age Balearic for good measure. Something for everyone.

Asphalt DJ returns to Oddysee with another intoxicating 4-track formula, titled “Double O”. Operating on a solo tip this time around, the Berlin-based producer further expands his sonic palette and offers a versatile collection of steamy club workouts geared towards various stages of dancefloor functionality. The record seamlessly touches on seductive after-hours bounce, slices of late nite propulsion and flawless rhythmic explorations, while keeping firm footing in the 90 and 00’s sound spectrum.

With an eye on the ongoing terror inflicted upon the Palestinian people, we (artist & label) decided to donate all proceeds from this release to Save The Children - Gaza and West Bank Emergency.

BREAK BEAT

First issued on ROOM's Pangea compilation - a project designed to showcase Argentina's techno community - John Barsik's 'Tropics' remains a standout track. Working at a steady 130 BPM, Barsik builds the piece from a dry kick and understated hi-hats, then threads in rounded bass pulses and humid, bell-like synth tones. The arrangement grows patiently, adding percussive flickers and subtle reverb swells that hint at open-air nights as much as basement clubs.

The production is lean but assured: low frequencies stay firm while midrange textures breathe, giving the track both punch and space. There's no gimmickry; instead, Barsik relies on pacing and clarity to keep listeners engaged, dropping elements out for a short breakdown before the full rhythm locks back in. 'Tropics' isn't designed to shock but to sustain, offering DJs and home listeners alike a slice of Argentine techno that values craft, atmosphere, and a quietly propulsive groove.
