Back to where it all began! For the first time since 2018, we’re bringing back the split EP format—the one that kickstarted our journey. This format holds a special place in our hearts, as it perfectly embodies our mission: to give a platform to emerging artists and spread the fresh energy they bring to the scene.

This release brings together Yesca and HATT.D, two artists we first connected with through our Happy House compilations, now delivering a full-length statement of their own.

Across six tracks, HT25 is crafted for the dancefloor—built for peak-time sets, open-air moments, and the raw energy of festival season.

Out May 23rd on vinyl and digital.

Quarterhead are back alongside CRSTPHR & James Chatburn to continue the momentum behind their recent single ‘Summer Day‘ by reshaping it into a high-energy, dance floor-ready hit titled ‘Summer Night’. They have retained the main elements of the original while also revamping it with extra bass and energy to match the excitement felt as the daytime descends into nighttime. 

Quarterhead is a diamond-awarded DJ/writer/producer duo consisting of multi-instrumentalists Josh Tapen and Janik Riegert from Germany.

Their works include songs with HUGEL, Kygo, Ian Asher, Matt Sassari, Nelly Furtado, Cheat Codes, Ofenbach, Ella Henderson, Robin Schulz, ATB, Felix Jaehn, Alle Farben, Gabry Ponte, Miggy Dela Rosa and many more.

Mallin follows up his killer collab with Sam Dexter with another one of his classic deep house "lullabies." For this release, he teams up with Kevin McKay (something they have done before, back in 2020). The two of them enlist the vocal talents of Brazilian chanteuse Nyla and deliver a beautiful, original, deep house groove. Luscious Rhodes and a subtle, bumping bass form the backing for NYLA's heart-stopping top line. Add in layers of lilting percussion and some sparkling synth sprinkles, and you have a perfect Ibizan sunset anthem. Gorgeous.

Max Chapman and Mischief deliver the Terrace Mix of their Defected debut ‘Whisper’ with Rag’N’Bone Man. Released in July 2025, ‘Whisper’ quickly hit half a million streams while making a splash in Australia with impressive support on Double J Radio. Now the producers, and good friends, Max Chapman and Mischief deliver a summery dub that spotlights the original’s brassy live instrumentation over a lively and wonky sub bass.
