@humanpitch welcomes @cola-ren to the label with 'Mekong Ballad', the Guangzhou-based artist’s first record to feature her own vocals.

Across six ambient compositions, fragments of memory surface: a fallen fruit, a whispering current, the haze of moonlight over an estuary - both a meditation on water and a journey into states of weightlessness and belonging.

I Want What I Want

Since its inception, Klasse Wrecks has always flirted with rap music flavours. Whether it’s Luca Lozano’s DJ Cabbage alter ego or the raw beats of the Grafiti Tapes series. Both label owners are big rap fans, with one (Mr. Ho) even being an ex-DMC scratch champ.

It makes sense then that the last release from KW in 2025 is the heavily Memphis-inspired ‘Straight From Hell’ EP, brought to you by the two mysterious producers DJ Skelet and Grim Phunk.

To use the term ‘stripped down’ would be an overstatement in regards to this EP, skeletal drums, booming kicks and frantic vocal loops done right make for a simple yet perfect mix. Tape hiss, MPC crunch and catchy loops are all integral to the vibe and music, tracks keep to a punchy 3-4 minutes and are interspersed by dreamy bonus beats just like in the old days.

DJ SKELET - DEMONS TAKING OVER ME

Hello, it's me again

Retro-futurist duo Group Modular presents the second release in its new 7inch series, powered by Confused Machines and Delights labels.
On their new double-sider "Hecker/Sharon" Mule Driver and Markey Funk share their fascination with the late 20th century brutalist architecture and explore themes of geometric patterns, urbanistic utopia and its inevitable decay. 
Inspired by the sound of early 80s Bruton library, slow and gentle "Sharon" paints a melancholic and alienated picture of a late-night residential area.

PREMIERE : Group Modular - Sharon

Manchester based Hidden Spheres is a Rhythm Section mainstay for a reason: having already released 3 EPs on the label, he has developed his sound and fully emerged into a flow state. His residency at Public Records has enabled him to mould an EP perfect for any dancefloor, perfecting a Detroit indebted House style with influences from early Kerri Chandler and Ron Trent perfect for those heads down, hands-up moments. 

Delivering 5 tracks that master dancefloor tension, it's difficult to pick a stand out. “Come On, Yeh” harks back to the New Jersey House sound with dubby organ chord stabs and punchy 909 drums and a sublime bongo loop. “Don’t You Wanna” welcomes the house dancers, with a low-slung, heavily swung groove, resampled pads, and a deep spoken refrain that gives the track its title. Kicking off the B-side “Get Down” hits the subs, with unmistakably phat bass, moody strings and broad use of the iconic M1 organ bass patch “Organ2”. Followed by “I Feel Good” brings police sirens, 808s and swirling pads, to a glorious Deep House tune with a top chime motif that keeps the party moving. The final track of the B side, “You Don’t Know”, takes things down a notch, but maintaining the sublime tension with classic house piano chords and another wicked percussive loop.

Hidden Spheres has returned to his unadulterated House roots, with an EP that stays true to the classic sound. He has shaped an awesome body of work with character from deep spoken word samples, perfect use of dub sirens and grooves that can give any club a reason to invest in bigger subwoofers.
