STEVE PEPE

Random Numbers is proud to present the latest release of fellow Italian Steve Pepe, real name Manuel Cascone. After some brilliant EPs on Hivern Disc, Macadam Mambo and inside Out Records, we are honoured to have him over for the album that has already enchanted us.

"Arabia per Delfina" opens the dance with a languid sound, which slithers in slowly but persistently. Protagonist is a solitary synth whose bright and sensual frequencies rise from the darkness, lighting up the room like the sultry moon in the summer nights.
The Arabic influence is clear, supported both by the title and the sonic timbre: anything but stereotypical, is reinterpreted by Steve Pepe through his New Wave sensibility.
What follows, “Sospesissimo”, softens the initial intensity slightly through its wobbly and playful groove. Here the guitar strings seem to move in slow motion, conveying a slight feeling of dizziness. Elements from jazz and downtempo music are expertly arranged into a bizarre and synaesthetic choreography of gestures.
The percussions hinted in “Sospesissimo” become more insistent, almost unruly, in “El Pelusa”, which pushes us effortlessly towards a frenetic and liberating dance.
This cornucopia of Latin-infused sounds marks the contours of an iconic character, Diego Armando Maradona, AKA Mano de Dios, and culminates in a carnivalesque explosion of euphoria.
"Carpenter" enhances the peak reached by its predecessor with a more reserved and introspective verve, but no less fascinating. As a composition with oneiric nuances, deep volumes and chiaroscuro, "Carpenter" demonstrates the double-edged nature of this album and, consequently, the wide emotional spectrum that Steve Pepe manages to convey in his productions.

Almost sneaking up on us is “Verso”, with its classical violins and the fearless cacophony challenging the harmony of the track. Fearless is also Steve’s voice, which channels the intensity and excitement of a journey that’s about to begin, but whose destination is yet unknown.
A slight hint of existentialism comes into play just before we approach the next track, "ZimaNeta", which marks the end of this sonic journey.
Here it is again, that very same languidness grasped in the opening. If “Arabia for Delfina” lets us glimpse the moon, “Zimaneta” goes straight for the entire Milky Way with its multitude of glimmering dots. In this spacey exploration made of a thousand colors, all the musical elements encountered along the way are revealed once again for a final farewell.

PREMIERE⚡️Steve Pepe - Carpenter [Random Numbers]

A trio of hypnotic, shapeshifting grooves from Thomass Jackson that blur the lines between party and paranormal. Unpredictable yet always danceable.

Transcend into orbit with Uritorco Times. (Probably) an ode to Argentina’s most mystical peak, UFO synthesisers flash and bleep around a wonky bassline. The result is equal parts mystic ritual and late night mischief.

Sly yet crunchy Push Comes To Shove rides a killer bassline over off kilter percussion. Sleazy mechanical funk that teeters, entranced between tension and release.

Sonic Witchcraft ensues in Junk Be Gone as the shadowy yet playful bassline twists like smoke around the acid melody summoning rhythm from strangeness.

Junk Be Gone gets the Felix Dickinson treatment for the EP’s remix delivering an extra long rework that stays respectfully true to the original in all the right ways. Live acid bass envelops the original bassline whilst ever intensifying synth solos build to an epic crescendo.

Releases November 21, 2025

An intoxicating sound full of pulsating rhythms and enchanting melodies lands at the doors of Ben Jones 'Parallel Circuit' label, as DJ and producer extraordinaire t.na sees in the latest chapter in his upwardly mobile musical journey…

t.na, has been working his magic within the dance music scene for over 20 years. Originally from Manchester but now based in London, his stellar career began behind the decks, where his ability to join the dots between House, techno, electro, minimal, and breaks saw him play in some of the world’s most celebrated dancefloors. His curiosity with music production eventually developed into the founding of Pickled Music, along with affiliated labels Into the Woods, Afterwoods, Occult Vision, and Taste the Rainbow Records, which have all put out some top-quality dance records in the past few years. The curiosity wouldn’t end there, as t.na ventured into music production himself. Heavily inspired by the early 2000s tech house sound, t.na’s sound is one of sublime, progressive rhythms; thought provoking and considered melodies; and an overall atmosphere of joyous momentum, perfectly blending minimalist sensibilities with multi-faceted, layered features - all of which provide his music with lasting intrigue and with a profound sense of depth and meaning.

The ‘Ivan’ EP is yet another step onward, and as an experience, it is tailored perfectly for late-night dancefloor excursions and early sunrises. As soon as the title track begins, the anticipation goes sky high, with a rock solid beat interspersed with a bass note that bellows from the deep. Cosmic, technological sound effects add a certain complexion and feel up top, with a sprinkling of melodic features placed atop the mix with grace and feeling. The earworm of a mid-range key line is the winner here, perfectly finding its way into the heart of the track and propelling things forward. ‘Reeves’ comes next, and this number follows a similar trajectory to the opener. A pulsating beat provides the foundation for a hypnotic bass line to weave in between the grooves, as airy pads shift in the background. This number is all about the little things, with the softest of changes opening up the most exciting of new horizons.

Skyline Systems emerges from Australia with Escape Vector — four deeply elegant cuts rooted in the classic deep Detroit influenced sound. Stripped-back and refined, the producer crafts machine-driven landscapes where analog synths and drum machines intertwine with a hypnotic, subtly futuristic groove.

Warm, fluid basslines, shimmering metallic chords and a steady pulse invite both introspection and late-night dancefloor drift. Minimal yet immersive, Escape Vector distills the essence of Detroit’s deep house and electro heritage while adding a contemporary sense of space and precision.

Four tracks built for careful listening — and for getting lost under low lights.

Limited vinyl pressing coming soon via Baldo's Physical Education.

Four producers, four shades of motion: dubby pressure, sleek trance energy, and tripped-out house psychedelia built for the floor.
Our seventh release brings together versatile club cuts sitting between house and trance. Familiar faces return — Tifra, Gearmater (fka Abdul Raeva) — and newcomers Olsvangèr and Earth Trax, each adding their own weight to the release.

“Clubfoot” on A1 — precision disguised as ease. The Estonian duo deal in pressure, not excess: a thick, rolling bassline, a bubbling acid line, and dub-warmed undertones glowing beneath the surface. Soft, delayed chords drift in and out like vapour, grounding the track in that classic dub techno haze. Reborn under a new name, they sound recalibrated and ready — gears turning, momentum building.

“The Body Radiates” is Earth Trax at his most direct. High-speed 303s coil through off-world, high-definition textures — bright yet tightly controlled. Crisp, hard percussion keeps the pressure constant, while flickering vocal chops cut through the mix with a distinctly ’90s pulse. It moves with purpose, gliding through the breaks and tunnelling toward the peak.

A Flash! — and reality folds. On B1, Olsvangèr delivers a pristine, meditative trip: razor-sharp percussion, a bassline built to unspool the mind. It’s lean, focused, and quietly hallucinatory. Proof he’s fast becoming the go-to for tripped-out house.

“Monolith” by Tifra signals a bold return - a deep, club-ready roller that hums with fizzing percussion, trippy, widescreen FX and a lead washed in echo that keeps everything in motion. It’s crisp, transportive, and unmistakably Tifra. Keep your ears open — the full EP’s on the way.

PREMIERE: Olsvangèr - Flash!

Brooklyn-based producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist Bad Colours returns with his fourth LP ‘Promise’ on Bastard Jazz. Fusing house, proto-techno, soul, hip-hop, and UK garage, the album pairs hypnotic club rhythms with moments of personal reflection, exploring vulnerability, desire, and transformation. Inspired equally by the energy of underground dancefloors and the quiet moments in between, ‘Promise’ is both dancefloor fuel and headphone therapy.
Musically, ‘Promise’ is a vibrant journey through Bad Colours’ genre-blurring world. The title track kicks things off with an up-tempo, harp-driven house groove featuring rising UK harpist Rachel Kitchlew, layered with ghostly female vocal snippets. ‘We Never Choose’, featuring Life On Planets, is a catchy, filtered floor-filler that alternates between rap and smooth, soulful vocals. ‘Moment of Silence’ spotlights Brooklyn’s Brandon Markell Holmes, whose emotive delivery soars over an intimate, late-night rhythm, while ‘Freaks’ enlists early-2000s Brooklyn dance-rap legends Ninjasonik for a bass-heavy chugger powered by their rapid-fire flow. ‘Nightcap’ rides a funky bassline and crisp percussion with vocals from longtime collaborator Jarv Dee, and ‘Home’ closes the record on a piano-led, MAW-inspired groove, with Bad Colours delivering his own intimate spoken-word poetry.
The project marks another evolution for London-born, Maryland-raised, Brooklyn-based artist Ibe Soliman, whose career has seen him DJ alongside James Murphy, Mark Ronson, and Q-Tip, produce for the mighty Kendrick Lamar and Faith Evans, and collaborate with Korean rap megastar Jay Park. 

PREMIERE : Bad Colours - Home

The sidewalk was a map of memory.

As he moved through the blocks, the city pressed back. Narrow corridors of wind between towers funneled against his chest; the heat from subway grates rose up his legs; the pedestrian current forced his shoulders into constant negotiation. Every intersection was choreography—pause, pivot, slide through the gap before the light changed.

This was urban physicality. The fight for space amidst the concrete warzone which surrounded him.

Everyone was out for themselves.

Yuu Udagawa is remixed by Takuya Matsumoto on a new EP for Razor-N-Tape. A classy release pairs two singular producers and weaves a wicked tapestry for the dancefloor.
