Sometimes, when talking about musicians who chose to remain faceless it’s easier [read: simpler] to just start with the facts. Much respected in house and techno circles, ItaloJohnson are a Berlin based trio who release what they call ‘functional sketches’ that combine their own array of influences with a very un-complex formula; on vinyl and on their own label. They have, so far, unleashed eight stamped platter transmissions, which have all been released with the same minimal fanfare but, as their sparse and monochrome website states: “ItaloJohnson is in no way trying to reinvent the wheel, rather trying to create reduced and functional sketches which can carry emotions through a DJ and dancefloor oriented sound.”

Seemingly more than aware of their place and the impact the music they produce and release is having in certain club spaces, they’ll be appearing at WetYourSelf’s Bank Holiday celebration on Sunday 24th August in Room One alongside the WYS! Residents Cormac, Peter Pixzel and Jacob Husley. Ahead of their appearance they’ve crafted a thoughtfully rugged and essential promotional mix that will undoubtedly go a long way to learn you way more about their outlook and their music than this fact-found introduction ever could…

041 - Dam Swindle - fabric podcast

Amsterdam natives Maarten Smeets and Lars Dales, aka Dam Swindle, unveil their third long-player with the release of a new track, the first to be shared from the upcoming album, ‘Open’ - out on 30 May 2025 via Heist Recordings.

The new album sees the acclaimed duo dive far beyond the deep sonic waters they’re most known for, exploring lower tempos, synthwave, hip-house, and ambient across fourteen tracks. With a gestation period that traces back several years, ‘Open’ is their most intimate and personal body of work thus far, birthed during a time of self-reflection away from touring and personal transformation as individuals.

“We felt the need to tell a very personal story through our music as a translation of our personal development in the past years. We also wanted to make music without a specific goal in mind; We simply wanted to create. By taking away the grid of dance music and any expectations of what a Dam Swindle song should sound like, the creativity started to flow naturally with songs in many different styles and tempos. The result is an album that feels refreshing and uplifting and still very much true to the heart and soul of our sound.” - Dam Swindle, January 2025.

While the trademark Dam Swindle four-to-the-floor beats are still ever-present on tracks like ‘The Present Is Always Perfect’, ‘I Need You’, and ‘Is This Love?’, it’s the gentle waves of synths on opener ‘Home’, the contemplative piano chords of ‘Bloom’ featuring Joep Beving, and the lo-fi ambience of ‘It’s Okay, I Can Wait’ that showcase a melancholic, ethereal sensibility previously uncharted by the duo. Collaborations with vocalists such as NYC’s Haile Supreme on ‘Not Enough’ and Neo-soul singer Faye Meana on ‘Girl’ expertly find room in between the dancefloor and home listening sessions, and a clear standout on the LP is the title cut where message-heavy rapped vocals from UK artist Samson ebb and flow amongst iridescent grooves.

Under the helm of Maarten and Lars’ adept A&R, their Heist imprint has become a beloved home for house heads of both schools old and new, platforming some of dance music’s biggest names from Cinthie to DJ Sneak as well as the musical dawnings of artists such as Kassian and Makèz. The Dam Swindle alias has achieved house music royalty-like status across a storied 15-year career that includes two critically lauded full-lengths, collaborations with the likes of Tom Misch and Kerri Chandler, and a globetrotting touring schedule. This album stands as their most profoundly personal work of art to date, and they can’t wait to share it with you.

2.Dam Swindle - Forever and Ever (Makèz Remix)
3.Kaap - Sereen (Elisa Elisa Remix)
4.DJ Sneak - I Can Tell You What You Want (Dam Swindle Remix)
5.Fouk - Tapioca (Crackazat Remix)
6.Makèz - Running from the Noise Feat. Life On Planets (DJ Sneak Dub)
7. Crackazat - In the Sky (Kaap Remix)

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

Detroit Swindle - Promomix - METRO

It was in 2011 that Dutch pair Lars Dales and Maarten Smeets quickly broke through in the electronic music scene. Since then they have become known for their widescreen approach to making and playing club-ready grooves. From deep to disco, tech to soul, they join the dots between the past and the present with their own sense of storytelling and do so in clubs around the world, as well as in their studio. House might be the root of the Dam Swindle sound, but it takes nourishment from a much wider world of music. 

Still now, their breakthrough tunes such as ‘The Wrap Around’ and ‘The Break Up’ receive countless plays on dancefloors all over the world and the duo has made timeless music such as their 2023 disco-house bomb ‘ That’s right’ and 90’s throwback banger ‘Allright – just a tribute’ that became one of the hits of the 2024 festival summer. Dam Swindle has built a trademark sound, while still evolving and maturing their craft in various musical niches. Their landmark 2018 album High Life shows a broad musicality from the duo and this is even more so on their highly anticipated 2025 long player ‘Open’.  ‘Open’ features countless collaborations with high-profile artists such as Dutch pianist Joep Beving and New York-based Ethiopian vocalist Haile Supreme, and sees the duo flex their sound from ambient electronica to synthwave, hiphouse and more. 

Since 2013, the pair has also established their record label Heist Recordings as one of the key independent labels for underground dance music, while also releasing music on other underground mainstays such as Aus Music and Classic Music Company. Heist is more than just a label, though - it is a breeding ground for talents old and new; somewhere talent is nurtured and allowed to develop. Label showcases and special projects such as the yearly Roundup EP; where all artists from the past 12 months remix each other after a random selection process, furthers the family vibe and helps Heist stand out from crowd. Artists such as Cinthie, DJ Sneak, Crackazat, Tesfa Williams, Makèz, Pépé Bradock, Matthew Herbert, Ge-Ology, Byron the Aquarius and many more have all contributed, proving that it is a place for unrestrained creatives to be free with their own sonic visions. The label looks as good as it sounds, too, thanks to visual artist Bas Koopmans's standout artwork designs. 
 
Proof of Dam Swindle's widescreen approach to production is their long and talented list of collaborators, which includes the likes of acclaimed musician Tom Misch, US talent Seven Davis Jr., instrumental collective Jungle by Night, plus Marc de Clive-Lowe, Jitwam and Lorenz Rhode. Next to their own originals, a broad spectrum of artists have asked Dam Swindle for some of their special remix magic: on labels like Strut and Soundway they have reworked the legendary Pat Thomas, aka the ‘Golden voice of Africa,' and gave his single ‘Yamona’ a contemporary electronic edge, as well as The Mauskovic Dance Band’s track ‘Space Drum Machine’ and plenty more artists like Kerri Chandler, Mayer Hawthorne and Tom Misch. As their talent for bridging genres from all over the world continues to attract global attention, high-profile projects keep rolling in from all points on the musical globe. 

Dam Swindle are famously avid collectors of both old and new records, and it shows in their DJ sets, which keep you on your toes as they move freely through the broad world of house music with skillfully blended moods of soulful techno, acid, breaks, disco and more, all to create those special moments that crowds never forget. It is for that reason that their name has become a real stamp of authority and invention in the dance music world. Whatever they do, then, this pair do with irresistible charm.
