Dropping in with our first release and VA of 2022, NoZzo Music's family gathering 'The NoZzo's' is back for its third instalment, inviting a host of incredible Tech House talent from around the globe. The VA is splitted into Part 1 and Part 2, both coming out in February.

Leading the way, label bosses Tomi&Kesh collab with Gustaff. 'YYY' sees the duo and Gustaff churn out an archetypal NoZzo jam, driven by tonal rhythmic percs and subtle synth licks.

Dee No's 'I'm Not A DJ' follows, keeping the velocity high with heavyset drum work and roaring sub-bass. 

'Retro' takes things a touch deeper as Juan Dragster forges a rolling hotbed of rhythm, timbre and feeling. A concoction of undeniably danceable elements! 

Milos Pesovic's 'Ze Moon' reintroduces a heavy stomp. Deep and dense beats drive the bulk of the track whilst a subtle layer of tonal percs ripple along behind creative vocal constructions.

Raized closes the first part of the VA on a bang with 'Loves Gonna Get You', taking no prisoners with a heavyweight number. Swinging drums and huge bass frequencies pump throughout, whilst an energetic vocal glides between stirring melodies and mammoth drops.

Dutch talent Secnd returns to NoZzo Music for a full label debut with his ‘Pop Up Shot’ EP.

Following several impressive showings on previous NoZzo Music releases, Netherlands-based DJ/Producer Secnd is back on Tomi & Kesh’s increasingly popular label outfit with his first solo EP, enlisting Miami’s Slugg on remix duties for the b-side, ‘Get Groovy’. 

Kicking things off with the title cut, ‘Pop Up Shot’ comes in hot with an onslaught of percussive-heavy tech flavours. Building around weighty rolling drums and a huge sub-bass melody, its bright textures, vocal shots and subtle melodies pave the way for an ebb and flow of upbeat terrace vibes from start to finish.

‘Get Groovy’ comes next, serving a slightly stripped-back persona with an emphasis on (you guessed it) groove. Swaying rhythms bounce over the top of resonant harmonies and playful vox chops to carve out a silky underground vibe-builder. 

Slugg follows up with his spin on ‘Get Groovy’, turning in a jazzier, chunkier rendition of the original, flooded with endless layers of nonchalant percussive drive. Orbiting a centrepiece saxophone sample, it’s a show of sophisticated class from the word go.

‘Tell You’ closes the release with another stripped-back dancefloor-pleaser. Another combo of crisp drums and rippling percussive playfulness combines with a rolling bassline and tonal injections throughout to deliver an endlessly danceable mood-setter. 

Secnd’s ‘Pop Up Shot’ EP is available from 21st April 2023 via NoZzo Music.
