Arpy Brown returns to Toy Tonics with his 3rd EP ‘U Never Listen’ on the German powerhouse dance label. Having studied music at Goldsmiths in London, Robin Braum aka Arpy Brown is known for exploring the more playful side of house music and those genres around it, rich in instrumentation and variation. More performative than ever, ‘U Never Listen’ comes full of vocals, performed instruments, lively arpeggios, no samples, but racked with hooks. Having played and sung in bands all of his teenage years, Robin is picking up singing again on this record on title track ‘U Never Listen’ and ‘Maybe’. ‘Release Me’ features beautiful, multilayered vocals by Allysha Joy, known for her solo work on labels like Gondwana and First Word but also for being the voice of Australian cult outfit 30/70. It’s not the first time the two collaborate after Arpy Brown’s remix of 30/70’s ‘Tempted’ on Rhythm Section reached millions of plays across the world. The EP is also a product of Robin’s deep friendship with Arpy Brown founding member Avi Barath who co-wrote many of the songs.

Part of the core Toy Tonics crew alongside Barbara Boeing, Cody Currie, Kapote, Sam Ruffillo and Gee Lane (whose debut EP just dropped and was co-written and co-produced by Robin), Arpy Brown has been touring across Europe this year and a full Australia tour is lined up around the EP. ‘U Never Listen’ comes fresh off the heels of his collab EP ‘Into You’ with Amy Dabbs on Aus Music. Generally taking a communal approach to music, Robin has been hosting intimate nights with DJs from far across the electronic music ecosystem since 2019. Guest sets from the likes of Seb Wildblood, Jitwam, Rebecca Vasmant, Fouk, Amy Dabbs, Hidden Spheres, Will Saul and some of the scene's brightest new talents have made for some unmissable parties in London's and Berlin's cosiest venues. In line with this ethos, he also co-ran artist collective and record label Squareglass - a proudly established home for new artists coming out of South London.

Arpy Brown's work has seen regular support on radio stations worldwide incl. BBC Radio 1 and 6 by the likes of The Blessed Madonna, Sarah Story, Jamz Supernova and Danny Howard. His last Toy Tonics EP 'Nogueira' saw him on the cover of Spotify's Fresh Finds.

Taruun & Orika-Quell-(Mellon Place Records)

Sacred Pulse,  is a ceremonial deep house journey by Leeuwenstein, blending the hypnotic groove of deep house with the sacred energy of ritual music. Each track is a gateway weaving tribal percussion, deep basslines, mystical chants, and cosmic textures into a powerful ceremonial flow.
This album is designed for truffle and ayahuasca journeys, ecstatic dance, or anyone seeking a deep, transformative musical experience.
Feel the rhythm as it opens the circle, builds into sacred communion, and finally returns to silence a complete ritual on the dancefloor.
Let the pulse guide you.

Dirty Funk House from Colombia!
Felipe Gordon is new to the scene, but entering the house world now via Toy Tonics in a heavy way.
 In fact Felipe is throwing some of the biggest Underground House parties in Colombia along with his Nómada Records crew from Bogotá. And he is making tracks, too. Dirty bangers and  with a certain unique vibe. He used to play in bands before switching to samplers and getting addicted to old disco and house vinyl. 
His moody and raw tunes use samples of rare records. But selected carefully, adding his own Juno 60 or Moog synth chords (like on "Tell me something true“). Often using minor keys and lot of little noises and short spoken words by himself. Never clean, always musically special. Felipe Gordon might be new to the international dance scene, but for sure you gonna hear that name more frequently over the next years.
