Looking out the window at the clouds in the sky on a stormy day after the Brexit vote and the election of Trump, FLOTSZAM was listening to Joni Mitchell “Both Sides Now” on her phone in the bath. As politicians who lied and divided people won, the political climate had combined with a personal crisis, surrounding her in darkness. Half underwater she tried to find hope in music and the sky. Mitchell’s clouds felt the same as hers as she had an idea, hit record and wrote “Under the Same Sky”.

Influenced by Trip Hop artists Portishead and Massive Attack, this song is a downtempo electronic and chill.

Under the Same Sky

‘King’ is the fourth single from FHUR's upcoming EP 'Dreamy, Drowsy, Sweet, Narcotic'. The self-defined not-song-of-the-summer bop features FHUR’s characteristic dark and moody ambience and blends it with an infectious reggaeton beat.

Damian Lazarus Feat. Jojo Abot  - Warrior Dance (Raxon Remix)

Hannah Wants returns to Defected with the emotionally resonant ‘Hold Me’, co-written by featuring vocalist, frequent collaborator and good friend ARA. The release follows the major success of their previous Defected single ‘The One’ in 2023, which conquered radio stations and received extensive club play across the UK thanks to its infectious hook and haunting vocals. Described by Hannah as ‘her favourite record to date’, the production and lyrics of ‘Hold Me’ come together to create cathartic release for the DJ - showcasing the sound of an artist who advocates fiercely for music with meaning alongside her reputation for making bass-heavy rollers built for the club.

Since its inception in 2020, Italo Moderni’s energy, spirit and inspiration has been the dancefloor. The darkened bunkers of Belgium, the trembling speakers of Valencia, the warming dawn of Rimini, these influences have been the lifeblood. Solidifying this tireless effort, Mellow Bangers Vol 2 is the label’s most ambitious collection to date.
In celebration of the imprint’s fifth anniversary, fifteen artists gather with every single one united under a rallying cry. From across the globe, machinists have been drawn together to deliver a statement of acid and wave, of electro and synth with flourishes of italo. The shadowy fringes of the floor are well represented, audio artisans like Cyrk and Djedjotronic serving distorted drums and melodies dripping with menace. Brightening these tones are the likes of Lauer with his Balearic infusions or Gravedad Cinética’s otherworldly “Fake Atmosphere.” Amongst the litany of talent are musicians who have both inspired Italo Moderni as well as those who have appeared on the label. Antoni Maiovvi fits such a description, the sound sorcerer slicing beats through bittersweet bars in the immersive “Stopping Power.” Ceaselessly developing the Spanish scene, Iberian artists are rightly showcased. Madrid’s David Poziano offers the cascading luminance of “In Search of Gold”, shimmering synthlines punctuated by breathy samples and pulsing percussion. New discoveries rub shoulders with established veterans, E-Bony’s bending and undulating “Brain U.F.O.” beside rising names like Ivan Pavletsov with the steely “No Future” and DjBoeing with the beaming joy of “Cheetah.”
Mellow Bangers Vol 2 is a breathless expression of the floor. A contemporary imagining of the racing rhythms and addictive hooks of the 1980s and 1990s. Fifteen works that summarise what Italo Moderni is and will continue to be.

PREMIERE: Lauer - We Could Be [ITALO MODERNI]

Your Love (Jody Wisternoff & James Grant Remix)

Following the release of his high-energy Kaskade EP earlier this year, Schiela returns to Correspondant with two standout cuts that channel peak-time tension and emotive release in equal measure. Who We Are is bold and direct, built for impact without losing its sense of detail. Been A Long Trip leans into a more reflective mood, driven by a vocal that captures the glow of a perfect night coming to a close. Remixes come from James Pepper, Kim Ann Foxman and CC:DISCO!, each reworking the originals with their own signature touch. Vibrant, confident and full of movement, this is Schiela in his stride.
