Do As You Please return with their 4th label release in the shape of volume 1 of their annual compilation series, entitled “With Us”.

DAYP continue to champion their ethos of delivering tasteful, experimental and forward thinking music whilst supporting up and coming talent from the UK and beyond.

Over 9 tracks, the compilation explores timbral possibilities within house, acid, tech house, breakbeat, big beat and electro. The impactful, varied and dynamic collection of work embodies what Do As You Please is and strives to be as a label and music brand. 

The artists and label have defied the setbacks of the pandemic, coming together to showcase their slice of lockdown history in artistic form. As the world craves a renaissance of culture, on the cusp of an impending summer of love, this developing collective is showing signs of a prosperous future and being an important cog in defining an era of British dance music.

Premiere : Dave - Innamoratevi (Bandcamp Exclusive)

To mark this pivotal half decade anniversary, Manchester brand Do As You Please are launching an eight track VA compilation, trail-blazing some of Manchester's hottest prospects in electronic music. The release celebrates and redefines the label's sound, building the foundations for a powerhouse of talent. 

Shining a light on the North’s hotbed of innovative artistry and culture, and maintaining the brand’s ethos to nurture grassroots talent, all eight tracks on the release come from local producers. Do As You Please has called upon friends new and old to curate a collection of music that’s ready for a world stage.

The sound of the compilation is dynamic and doused in character and groove. Each track showcases the artist’s prowess within the sub-genre they’ve explored. Running through the release is a leading-edge UK and European deep & tech house sound, with Mica (UK)’s beautiful & deep “There’s Ya Dip”, Haze’s fun-loving but cool-as-they-come “Gelato”, and Moiser & Haze’s underground roller “Rula”. 

Swales’ “Forgiveness” provides a progressive, peak time, acid tinged masterpiece, affirming that the young producer’s devotion to his craft is paying dividends aplenty.  

 DAYP resident Rhodri’s “World Rhythm'' exquisitely flies the flag for the classic US house & techno sound, echoing the foundations of Manchester’s electronic scene.. An unrelenting, percussive piano groover giving a nod to the pioneering fathers of Chicago and Detroit.

Joe Roche’s candid approach to a driving dancefloor weapon with “Who’s This?”, is reminiscent of early Patrick Topping, with added underground acid appeal.

Samo Lung returns to the label with “Turbo Uber from TWH to DBA”. Sam’s seasoned ability and expertise shine throughout this track. A Nu-Trance acid pumper, purpose built for Manchester’s Strange Quarter venues - The White Hotel and Derby Brewery Arms, exactly what it says on the tin! 


Leeds’ event outfit, Limit’s boss Rowland (UK) closes the compilation with “Chaos Engine” - a journey best experienced locked in from start to finish. Hypnotic house music at its best with forward thinking ideology, arrangement and sound design.

Max Bellis - The Psychedelic Movement (P021)

Rolling into their 6th year, Manchester’s Do As You Please welcome back brand-head, Joe Roche, for his first EP since 2022.

Life since lockdown has seen Roche performing 150 gigs per year at home and abroad. Alongside supporting the Manchester DJ scene through his work with Reform Radio, and hosting regular events across the city, Joe has been working quietly on redefining his sound.

The first instalment comes in the form of DAYP:003, named after a new member of the DAYP family - Chunks the Maine Coon cat.

Chonk EP delivers a tasteful yet familiar sound palate, spanning peak-time main room to summertime terrace, exhibiting Roche’s signature sound design, versatility and fun-loving approach to house music.

Let’s Go maintains Joe’s anthemic, 90s infused production style, delivering blistering 909 drums, classic house piano and Detroit vocals. Chonk explores a blend of acid house, garage and electro, with focus on playful sound design and a mischievous disposition. The third track, Serious delivers an accessible and timeless deep house vibe, suitable for parties day and night. Finally, More Monie is a DC10 terrace ready, hip-house groover.

Over a year in the making, a strong offering from the returning producer.
