Desolat label boss Loco Dice has been playing unreleased tracks by Italian pair Alex Rubia & Maiki for a while, and now he signs them up for their first full release on the label.
This Milanese duo came together in 2016 and serve up innovative tech house with driving rhythms and smart vocals. They are residents at the Youth party in Milan and have a broad and varied DJ sound that is suitable for any party. This EP is influenced by their knowledge of hip hop and old school sounds, a passion for low frequencies and 909 and 808 drums.
Opener "Push Up" featuring Shawnecy is a robust track with hypnotic pads and a pressing groove that destroys the floor whilst a dark, filtered vocal repeats over and over. An excellent instrumental is also included for more physical moments in the night.
Then comes the brilliantly chunky "Loud!", with a super strong and driving groove. It has fat toms and blasted bass that brings a raw old school vibe. Combined with wild synth lines and sleazy vocals and cow bells, it’s another high impact tune.
Lastly, "My Baby is Back" is based on a voice which the two artists “fell completely in love with during their studio sessions”. The heavyweight tune is built around a powerful bass sound, with ticking percussion and bulky kicks that force you to dance.
This is a high octane EP that is destined to leave a mark on anyone who hears it.

Alex è uno dei talenti di spicco della scena Tech house/Minimal italiana. Dopo l'esordio con Loco Dice al Cocoricò di Riccione, il dj/produttore milanese si è confermato anche all’estero suonando per ben due volte al “Destino Pacha” di Ibiza. Forte della sua influenza nella città natale, non solo per essere uno dei resident di “Amnesia Milano”, ma sopratutto per aver aperto nuovamente il set a Dice al “Fabrique Milano” e rappresentato proprio il marchio del celebre artista “Seran Bendecidos”, al recente Pop Up Store nel centro storico della città della madonnina. 
L’attenzione sul giovane produttore è arrivata non solo dopo l’uscita su “Desolat Music” ma anche grazie ai suoi dischi: "Abracadabra", collaborazione tra il noto rapper americano Future e il trapper Sfera Ebbasta, e della collaborazione di quest’ultimo con Shiva “Alleluia”.
Le sue sonorità lasciano un'impronta indelebile nel mercato, dato l’accurata selezione dei suoi set, portando vibrazioni Soul/Jazz mischiati a vocal ricercati House & Hip Hop. 
Proprio per questo è stato scelto per aprire i set ad artisti come: Mochakk, Gordo, Cloone, Patrick Topping e molti altri big della scena.

Le sue produzioni vantano supporti da artisti del calibro di: Marco Carola, Dj Shablo, Paco Osuna, Wade, Joey Daniel, Cuartero, William Djoko, Silvie Loto & more…

Not so long ago two great friends left the country where they lived and moved to Brooklyn, NY. There they re-builded their studio, produced new tracks far away from day-in day-out madness of the life they left behind for a while.
In this creative and intimate isolation the idea of the label came up – just like the next step to be taken in their intense relation. In July 2007 this idea became reality when Desolat was born.

Desolat is now a Düsseldorf-based label founded by Loco Dice and Martin Buttrich. Both Dice and Buttrich had a long-standing artistic career in music before they decided to take a challenge and create a platform to release music they like independently and fast.
