We met @l-eese at Listen Festival in Brussels. We were already playing her tunes on @yukumusic for some time, but it was her Live show that really throw us off our seats. We went to giver props after the show and our vibes just clicked. “—Hey, we saw your gig, and it was amazing! We danced our legs of!”, we said. “—Yeah! I saw you!”, she said with a smile. That’s all it takes.

Leese is a Brussels-based producer and DJ who’s been getting buzz for her sound - rooted in Bass Music and pulling percussive influences from breakbeat and tribal.

“Aasma” draws from Drum & Bass, fast Electro and Deconstructed Club. 3 intense tracks of fast broken beats with vocal samples and sprinkles of melody “Aziza” starts with a jackhammer-like rhythm over a half- step beat, before a wailing siren and sprinkles of Baile Funk vocals take over. “Sarma” has a more subdued and hypnotic feel that builds into a rush of trance-y synths. On “Astrakka”, Leese collaborates with @ravlsncld to produce a 145 BPM banger, with heavy rolling kicks and metallic percussion.

“This EP feels a little special. Slowly but surely, I’m finding my way back to more melodic, more “musical” vibes, and that’s the spirit that shaped this project. It also marks my second collaboration with my friend RAVL—a creative connection that keeps evolving and surprising me.”

Early Reflex continues its Eyes series with a powerful return from Brooklyn-based producer
Sobolik, whose distinctive and emotionally resonant club music first landed on the imprint with
Opening track “Sandbox” is a hypnotic roller driven by a constant mantric bass and led by
ethereal, airy synths. The piece flows with emotional clarity, balancing softness and propulsion in
equal measure—an entrancing meditation through rhythm and texture.
On the flip, “Turning Back” explores a darker, more angular energy. Grime-inflected and
basslines. The track moves with restrained intensity, echoing internal shifts and the slow
untangling of anxious loops.
With Eyes III, Sobolik expands on their singular voice within experimental club music, continuing
Early Reflex’s commitment to foregrounding emotionally charged, forward-thinking sonic work.

‘Eyes III’ is available on all platforms starting from Friday 1st August 2025.

Chute Libre is ratio/club's first compilation. 15 artists from all over France deliver 13 tracks that float between raw rhythms, light layers and contrasting textures. A dive into electronic productions, where styles and eras slip, cross and hybridise. Sometimes danceable, sometimes abstract, but always outside the box. Take a deep breath, let yourself be sucked into the void - and go into freefall.

D.C. native Ovid returns to Cork imprint Flood for a third time with his latest EP, ‘The Palace’. 

A follow on from 2022’s ‘Stone Coaster’, the New York based artist returns to form with his uncompromising hybrid of funky and hard drum across 4 original tracks, plus a further remix from Shai FM on ‘Crawl Out’.

The release also sees Flood founders Doubt and Tension collaborate with Ovid for a second time on ‘The Palace Pt. 2’, reigniting a three-way collision of sharp, forward facing club drum. 

Our featured premiere, ‘North From Here’, blurs the lines between mechanical and traditional sounds, fizzing with industrial melodies and effects alongside anthemic percussive builds and foundations.

The EP drops in full on July 31st here: https://ovidmusick.bandcamp.com/album/the-palace

PREMIERE: Ovid - North From Here (Flood)

Baltimore-born, Brooklyn-based, BIG J herself -- JIALING (@pbnstrawberryjam) joins forces with Sorry Records for a floorshaking 4-track exploration of everything from big room latin hard house to queer vocal slammers, and plenty of breaks and bass in between.

I met Jialing on New Years Eve Eve 2021 at Bossa here in Brooklyn. It was like 2am on a Thursday night, mid-way through "Breaks in America" - our first ever dedicated breaks night with our friend SWAP MEET! and Kindergarten Records/Sorry favorite Drummy b2b myself. I've got a distinct memory of Jialing introducing herself and saying "I came because you said breaks! I love breaks!" I remember being struck by her unpretentious enthusiasm (especially considering she was still based in Baltimore back then and was routinely making the trek to NYC for local club nights like ours).

Since that night, JIALING's been a wonderfully ever present figure on the NYC dancefloor and in our lives. Named one of “The Top 25 Producers Who Defined the Year 2024” by Mixmag, she's done incredible work via self-releases in addition to stellar recent releases on Local Action's Clasico Records (FREAKY HORNS, WHISTLE TIP with Farsight, and this WTCHCRFT + Sister Zo featuring remix record), Gallegos' Room Service imprint, and the new gen Baltimore club label WOE she runs alongside Kade Young. She’s remixed folks like Seimei (on Sorry!), Honey B, and nextdimensional — as well as played clubs like Nowadays, Marble Bar, Public Records, Good Room, Paragon, Dalston Superstore, Venue M.O.T., Mansions, and beyond.

J literally lives two blocks down the street from me and I'm so happy to finally do a proper Sorry Records release with her here. WUPS! is the sound of JIALING at her most immediate, playing with some major source material from the last forty odd years of dance music history; touching on sounds from the Paradise Garage to the Loft (“Don’t Go Lose It Baby”) Frankie Knuckles at The Warehouse (“Let No Man Put Asunder”), and Junior Vasquez’s Arena at the Palladium (“Cunty”).

Another certified Sorry Records Big Room Trojan Horse release, WUPS! finds JIALING at the height of her power and has already been tearing up dancefloors like The Carry Nation & WRECKED’s massive Get Wrecked & Carry Pride party this June.

WUPS! also features original artwork by our friend SWAP MEET! and masters by Danny Goliger (3024, Magic City, Scuffed Recordings).
