For their 18th vinyl release, Hard Fist welcomes Guadalajara-based producers Vongold and Fargo Devianti in the family, including an impressive remix by Jennifer Cardini and Damon Jee.

Dj, producers and performers, the Mexican duo releases collabs on Correspondant, Hard Fist, Rotten City, Her Majesty’s Ship and more. Vongold is all about low-tempo dark disco, anxious lyrics over bass lines and hundred vocal gems ; while Fargo Devianti is a magician mixing guitars, synthesizers, drums and voodoo percussion.

“Taste of Butter” is their first full EP together. Vongold's haunted vocals stress Fargo Devianti hypnotic percussion. Together they create a psychedelic journey into mind landscapes with eclectic influences like avant-garde rock, post-punk, krautrock and darkwave sprinkled by psych-folk eastern melodies and ritual percussions. This EP is probably the most rock and new-wave oriented ever released on Hard Fist.

To conclude, Jennifer Cardini and Damon Jee brought a powerful remix influenced by Detroit's electro and breakbeat roots. Once mixed with the trippy sounds of the original version, it opens a fresh new door into the field of “dancefloor killer” music.

PREMIERE:  Fargo Devianti & Vongold - Taste Of Butter [HARD FIST]

Let's go on a trip through the Bizzarro Universe.

The Hamburg-based producer couple Bizzarro Universe is back on Verflixt Music for their third release. "Speed of Light" is a perfect rollin’ space track. The Bizzarros prove their sense for the dancefloor with a track for the peak time. Keeping the Italo vibes, they delight an uncompromising piece. The female robotic voice in the breaks lets no clue, that you're on a flight through space & time, and the drop comes in like your spaceship hits Speed of Light: Powerful and with a Big Bang.
  
Remix action comes from Louis de Tomaso (Ritmo Fatale) and David Body (Melopee Records, Exploited). Louis gives us a more trancy vision, with slightly 90s influences and those synth melodies he likes. David delivers a more Italo House version with a softer piano synth, perfect for the late summer! 

Smile on your lips; the space party continues!

PREMIERE: Bizzarro Universe - Speed Of Light (Louis De Tomaso Remix)

‘Ghost of Arms’, the dark synth-pop jewel from @cursesforever & @terr_music is about to get the remix treatment thanks to an exciting line up!

Paris-born composer, orchestrator and Musique Concretist @wladimirschall delivers a beautiful and fascinating stripped-down interpretation.
Built around an infectious hazy melody and ethereal guitar chords, in that melancholic setting, Terr's reflections on lost love resonates even deeper.

South Korean producer and dj @shubostar speeds up the pace a bit with her synth-driven, Italo inspired remix. Now draped in her signature cosmic sound, Terr vocals are more moving than ever, Curses soothing guitar action are floating all around, all of it invoking the bitter-sweet melancholy of a reflective night ride.

"I am a total 80’s kid, and I remember when the song came out, and I heard it on the radio. My uncle grabbed me and spun me around to the sound, and from then on, this song stuck with me until now. Whenever I hear the original track, I sing along and spin myself around for the fun of it. I love the happy vibe to it and the very positive driving power of it. With the re-edit, I wanted to keep the original vibe and the key elements to make it still very clearly recognizable over the time of the track, revealing the main vocals rather late, teasing the listener and sending him on a mind journey.” The track was produced with the support of Julian Laping aka https://soundcloud.com/toneaffair

While spinning right round, https://soundcloud.com/st-ahler aims to spread joy by creating lofty and floating disco & indie dance sounds. Moving from Singapore to Berlin in 2014, Stahler discovered the decks in an escalated night of synth spaceships and black matter gravity forces. Shortly after, he began playing DJ sets at intimate events & house parties before he started to make hoofers hover at bigger parties and events, ranging from art exhibitions to clubs and festival stages. His melodic indie dance sets are appreciated for their danceable yet wobbly and deep sounds infused with tasteful influences from the lively 80s, banging Italo Disco and solid dark disco tunes, covering wide electronic frequency terrains.

Collaborating previously on DGTL, having known each other for years, Dutch brother duo Parallelle and France’s Nicolas Masseyeff have created a partnership within the studio that clicks. Parallelle are multi-instrumentalists, composers, producers and Klassified Records owners with a hybrid sound that mixes up electronica, electro-jazz and underground house, while Masseyeff is equally accomplished and draws on minimalism, jazz, new wave, Detroit and Chicago when crafting his signature sound on the likes of Systematic Recordings and Diversions Music. Linking up again, the three talents combine for a first outing on Crosstown Rebels with ‘Renegade’.

Thomas of Parallelle says, “We have created a very complementary, fun and fluid creative flow when together in the studio. We like to keep a renegade mindset and always look for a dirty groove.” And that shows across these latest creations.

Up first is title track ‘Renegade’, a deep mid-tempo house shuffler. The drums are elegant and airy, with bright chords and a rasping baseline. It’s a real mood builder with dramatic synth sweeps that brings a sense of class to the dance floor.

Israeli artists Adam Ten & Mita Gami have been a creative force for the last couple of years, and their ‘High On’ EP on Crosstown Rebels last year gained huge success, defining a new movement of psychedelic house sounds. Their remix of ‘Renegade’ offers a slowly unfolding masterclass with moving melodies and modulated synths casting a captivating spell.

Last of all is ‘Bandidos’, another deep and subtle track infused with rich synth work. The bright lines and deft pads are lithe and loose over the underlapping drums, encouraging you to gaze in awe as you get lost in the mellifluous groove.

Damian Lazarus presents the sixth volume of his Crosstown Rebels SPIRITS compilation series, boasting an impressive lineup of Lauren Lane, Cristina Lazic, AJ Christou, TMPLE and more.

Since its debut in 2017, Damian Lazarus’ annual ‘SPIRITS’ series on Crosstown Rebels has been a beacon for breakthrough artists, setting the label’s agenda for the year ahead. The sixth instalment in February is another meticulously curated lineup with ‘SPIRITS VI’ featuring a blend of new and recognisable talents, including Lauren Lane, Cristina Lazic, Iñigo Vontier, AJ Christou and many more.

London-based talent Cameron Jack kicks off what looks set to be a breakout year with ‘The Vision’, a bubbly and tropical cut with cosmic synths and loose, jumbled rhythms. Chris Bowl then brings his emotional style to the deep, rolling beats and fresh melodies of ‘Silent Plain’, while NY-born, LA-based house tastemaker Lauren Lane layers in smoky pads and tender whispers to her sublime deep house cut, ‘Fair Game.’ Next, German talent and Degree Records head Marc Lenz brings darker vibes to his track ‘People Are People’, while Rebellion artist Cristina Lazic and previous Lazarus collaborator Leia Contois combine for the alluring vocal soul and gritty minimal drums of ‘So Deep’.

Mexican Iñigo Vontier is a pioneer in his homeland after crafting a global reputation, and his twisted synths, shiny textures and steely drums on ‘That Trippy Sound’ prove why as they work you into a trance. Next is influential Manchester-based DJ/producer AJ Christou, who has released on the likes of Hot Creations and Cuttin’ Headz. His track ‘Back & Forth’ brings an infectious groove with plenty of flair and catchy drum funk, before TMPLE shuts things down with the deft, airy grooves and floating bass of ‘The Girl In The Room’, complete with its tender male vocals.

At the forefront of electronic innovation, Crosstown Rebels stands as a pivotal platform and record label, reflecting the genre’s diversity and housing an impressive roster that includes renowned artists and household names like Art Department, Maceo Plex, and Jamie Jones. With sub-labels Rebellion and Secret Teachings in tow, the imprint consistently and continuously expands its musical canvas, creating an immersive landscape for leading and emerging talents to thrive.

Here at Bordello, the hot season has already arrived. Championing this warmth is Italy’s very own Hey Cabrera! The Turin based dynamo melds elements of electro disco, italo and house to create a uniquely aromatic blend of dancefloor joy. Clean drum patterns, claps and hi-hats are at the foundation of “Italo Void”. From these percussion points, a bold and ensnaring melody takes flight; glimmering synthlines shining from beginning to end. Fellow Bordello mainstay, Lauer arrives to bring his own analogue sound to the title piece. Accentuating that irrepressible tune, piano keys give extra ballast with a touch of late evening romance as we wait for the sun to come up. The flip transports us to Scandinavia for some unrequited love. Although “Forelskelse” may mean unexplored passions, this track is brimming with emotions. Burning with a smouldering energy, ingredients from disco to house combine to produce a wonderfully uplifting work. David Bay, of Zissou Records fame, closes with his interpretation of “Forelskelse”. A measured introduction gives way to those addictive notes of the original, Bay stripping back the samples to allow the instruments to sing. A soundtrack to see us into a magical summer.

PREMIERE: Hey Cabrera! - Italo Void (Lauer Remix) [BORDELLO A PARIGI]

BUY : https://feinstoff.bandcamp.com/album/laion-hand-hand-paw-ep

Laion touches down on Feinstoff with a sublime four-tracker that channels the sleek allure of Italo, the sun-drenched moods of early ’90s house, and a sprinkle of rave.
Opening with Hand Hand Paw, an irresistibly hooky bassline slides in early and takes hold, driving high-octane momentum with a glint of trance in its DNA, where rave energy fuses with crisp, Neo-Italo vibes. Built with the floor in mind, it pushes towards an acid-laced finale that seals the deal.
Doctr steps up for the remix, zeroing in on the original’s addictive bassline and letting it dominate the space. A commanding, stomping groove takes hold, stripped back to pure power, with precision layers and sharp dynamics showing Doctr in top form.
JYF shifts the mood into brighter territory, a dominating bassline carrying a French disco shimmer. Major and seventh notes add warmth and lift, while snare rolls build the tension toward a drop that slides in smooth and keeps the floor locked.
Closing with Spinelli Spielloni, the EP returns to darker terrain. An off-beat bass drives shadowy Neo-Italo vibes, stabbing chords slice through the mix, and harmonizing gated synths wrap the groove in a hypnotic grip.

Feinstoff’s Free DL series welcomes Nackley, who reimagines Roxette’s “The Look” as a proper chugger with a sly club-ready twist. Originally a 1989 chart-topper that rocketed the Swedish duo to global fame, the song’s unmistakable hook still lingers with seductive pull. Nackley channels that energy into something darker, heavier, and built for long, late-night floors.

And in case you’re wondering, the shirt says it all: stop asking, he doesn’t make porn, but he does make tracks.

A standout collaboration between G L’e P and ELIEZER, created under their shared moniker Laze, delivers a sound that’s raw, unfiltered, and undeniably magnetic. While each artist is celebrated for their unique sonic identity, together they create something that cuts through the noise -  a genre-bending fusion that feels both timeless and sharp-edged.

The result is a track designed not just to be heard, but felt, raw, infectious, and built for the dance floor. It's a love letter to sweaty clubs, sunrise festival sets, and those transcendent moments shared on packed floors by true music heads.

G L’e P reflects on the track’s inspiration:
"For me, Disco never died."

The track draws its heartbeat from "Walk the Night" by the Skatt Brothers — a seminal moment for G L’e P. He first discovered it through “A History feat. Julian Mitchell”, a track that introduced him to the guitar riff that hit differently — something clicked instantly. That influence became the foundation for what would become a bold new chapter in his sound.

Melopee is proud to present you their third RETROFUTUR compilation, including 6 tracks by their most regular artists.
 
Endrik Schroeder opens the ball with the pure warehouse banger "Automated" ! The track's sonic intensity never falters, driven by a relentless rhythmic structure and saturated synthetic textures. The modulated layers and the syncopated break recreate the visceral urgency worthy of the underground raves of the 90s.
 
With "Happy End," Brandski distils a contagious euphoria, designed to set the dancefloor ablaze with collective joy. A leading figure of the Italian-French new wave, he creates a track as jubilant as it is unstoppable, where rhythmic mastery flirts with festive instinct. An invitation to luminous abandon: arms raised, shared smiles, communion guaranteed.
 
With "Eldorado" John Lord Fonda reaffirms his status as a key ambassador of French techno on the international scene. The track unfolds a relentless, extremely tense groove, where darkness becomes driving tension. A rigorous, almost martial sound signature, serving an uncompromising vision.
 
"White Light" by Panthera is a polished track that transports us on a euphoric journey. The heavy, incisive kick blends with atmospheric layers and heady arpeggios, creating a constant tension that culminates in thunderous drops. The whole thing is supported by a deep, vibrant bassline, typical of the 90s rave scene.
 
Once again, Berlin's My Secret Playground stands out as the architect of a muscular German nu-disco, flirting with the boundaries of techno. "Don't Panic" combines percussive pulses and dark tension, while distilling subtle reminiscences of the disco aesthetic. A masterful sonic hybrid, between retro hedonism and contemporary intensity.
 
Club Mayz delivers a masterful closing performance with "Tonight I Have To Hide", an electro track fueled by the raw heritage of Detroit techno and the dark textures of EBM. The track combines dramatic tension and synthetic precision in a nocturnal and introspective aesthetic.

lunatic, let’s welcome them to come with us to niset–
our merry married headland.
let’s give them their desired reaction,
as this is our servitude.
crimson rain already comes down,
like automated imprints on our pin art screen.
far above, the stand asks if they can get even higher,
while we clowns from villarriba play on tres cuerdas.
we raise to the power of the third dimension,
until the dusk of the last synthetic sunset.
with your last intriguing monologue,
we are harmony in stereo.
when others think this is no joy for us,
we just want to let the kids play–
in that land they only know from toys”r”us.
when all we love could soon be gone,
we continue our shift that dyes your hair with neon drift,
as the men in gray from villariba chant in choir–it’s an adicción de amor.
when we play our vapor games,
we spend one night in the house of consciousness.
we ask them if they wanna try; they will wonder if they were smoking turchese,
when we are already dancing like muffins.
our legs melt down like dough from that nut company’s ad that said:
first we take manhattan, then we bake berlin.
when the men in gray from villabajo still claim that it's a sin,
we know how anyone’s ultra fairy of surreality’s circus emerges from within.

Sarah Wild’s Afterglow taps into a history of piano-led rave euphoria without leaning on nostalgia, nodding to blurry heads-down memories while keeping the arrangement lean and the sentiment fresh.

The drums are crisp, the bassline warm, and the hook lands with just enough shimmer to lift a room rather than flood it. Feelings of of the peak years cast anew for one more night. The production hits all the right notes, subtle vox work and neat fills keeping the tension pulling you along. Vhyce trims the edges and adds a slick, late-night glide to the rhythm, tighter phrasing, more slipstream than surge, nudging it into a streamlined pocket that sits neatly between what you expect from a remix, and something a little more.

Both versions drive that emotive sound: the piano-lead hands-up moments we all long for, and a low end that translates on bigger rigs. These are the kind of cuts that makes a crowd feel like the night’s still just getting started, a steady lift all the way to impressive heights rather than a stunt drop that keeps bodies close to the booth as the lights come up.

The morning shines brighter than ever, the world bathed in a flickering glow. The city races forward at its relentless pace, and you yield to the rush, lost in the beauty of the moment. Afterglow.

lunatic, be prepared, she will say: ich bin der liebling der götter,
while you ask me whether we are already about to decay.
in this manic world, we still desire to call the ball.
in our collective grave, we still invite them to this panic rave.
this will make them go haywire–
they will even end up calling it tripwire–
while reflecting on past deeds during the eternal afterglow.
you said: i do it for you, send me those silver sparks, 
so this g/rave hosts another cyberdance.
were we lost in translation? 
calling both our pet iguana and our diamond ring yuwana?
asking ourselves with our backhead-stored french: mais qui es-tu?
wait, we are still decades full of decadance, we are still strong, we are still vampires.
listen, she said: no matter whether it’s heiss oder kalt outside,
we remain dancers in the dark,
no matter whether we are only fed on bitters and bread,
we keep on going in those dark rooms in the basements, in our sanguine lust.
this tricks them into their wildest minddance,
while she says: es wird so schön wie es niemals war.
yes, war is war, love is love, we dance forever. 
we bet our souls on black, we bet all or nothing.
we will defend our queen, no one will steal from her, 
and, for her, we are der räuber und der prinz.
every single one of us can at least say: she is the one i love,
and this is how it’s always gonna be.
when it’s getting cold outside but sweat still drops like tears in the rain,
they should not tell her that they will not come, 
she will notice it and tell them: 
ach, immer noch die alte leier, mann!?

FEINCAST XLVIII: Captain Mustache

Get Physical Music presents Silver Sparks, a magnetic collaboration between Maltese maestro Carl Bee, UK production collective mOat, and vocalist Kyozo — a dark, driving Indie Dance track illuminated by flashes of Disco-inspired energy.

Out November 7, 2025, Silver Sparks evokes the nocturnal allure of vintage analog sound — weaving pulsing basslines, lush synth progressions, and shadowy melodies beneath Kyozo’s haunting vocal performance. The track unfolds with cinematic tension and emotional drive, blending nostalgic warmth with modern production flair. The result is both retro and forward-looking — a moody, melodic journey built for neon-lit nights and deep, late-hour dancefloors.

Carl Bee, one of Malta’s most accomplished electronic artists, continues his momentum following major releases on Diynamic, Spectrum, Atlant, and Armada. His productions have earned support from global heavyweights like Solomun, Carl Cox, Joris Voorn, and Pete Tong — with his Diynamic hit Sinfonia named an Essential New Tune on BBC Radio 1.

mOat, the enigmatic UK collective, bring their signature depth and cinematic production style, known for releases on Diynamic, Aus, and Armada, and remixes from legends like Âme, DJ Tennis, and Gerd Janson. Their sound fuses emotional resonance with club energy — a perfect complement to Carl Bee’s driving rhythms.

Tying it all together is Kyozo, whose ethereal voice and conceptual artistry add a spiritual layer to the release — transforming Silver Sparks into something more than a dance track: a moment of connection between light, sound, and emotion.

Out November 7 on Get Physical Music — Silver Sparks ignites the night with dark allure, disco shimmer, and pure forward motion.

For the first time, Endrik Schroeder and The Hacker have joined forces. Their unique sounds and styles have combined seamlessly to produce a 12” that draws on their own musical histories. The title track pulls the listener into a darkened sweaty basement, a space where neon lights leer and quivering speakers vibrate. Melting elements of new beat and rave revelry, the track is bawdy and bold. Robotic samples cut through siren blasts, clean snare rolls skidding in thick basslines and creamy breaks. Two remixes follow, both care of fellow French producer: Back From The Wave. First up is the “Breaky Remix”. Adhering to the club origins of the source material, this remake sends melodies ever higher as drums lift elated lines to the stern refrain of “Emergency”. The “Indie Remix” closes. The glowsticks are sheathed in this version, instead it is the soaring keys that are given the limelight with beats bolstered for extra bite. Three tracks set to delight and ignite dancefloors.

As the ‘For Real’ album continues to resonate across clubs and festivals, iconic electronic duo Booka Shade unveil the next instalment of their LP remix series on Blaufield Music. This latest drop features two fresh interpretations: Sainte Vie’s rework of ‘Glare’ and Leena Punks’ take on ‘Broken Glass’, both delivering distinct perspectives on standout moments from the LP. 

Mexican-born, Miami-based producer Sainte Vie (Pablo Piña) transforms ‘Glare’ with his blend of melodic sonics, diverse textures, and emotionally charged energy. Drawing on his extensive experience as a producer, sound engineer, and live performer at festivals such as Burning Man and Coachella, he infuses the track with driving rhythms and cinematic layers - bridging the gap between emotive storytelling and floor-filling energy. 

London-based Leena Punks turns her attention to ‘Broken Glass’, offering a vibrant, melodic house-infused interpretation. Since emerging in 2020, Leena has rapidly built a global following with her dynamic approach, earning support from artists such as Armin Van Buuren, Korolova, and Gorgon City. Her remix balances driving lead synths with intricate subtleties, reimagining the original track while preserving its emotional core, making it equally suited for peak-time festival sets and late-night club rooms. 

The release marks another chapter in Booka Shade’s ongoing ‘For Real’ remix series, highlighting both established and rising talent within the global electronic music community.

ITALO TANZ Records is a side sublabel of Golden Soul Records. It was created by James Rod and reflects his fascination for the darker and more cosmic currents of Italodisco, Hi Energy and space oriented club music.

James Rod, born Jaime Rodríguez Navarro in Extremadura and now based in Berlin, has built a reputation as a producer and DJ with a distinct melodic touch. His work moves between Italo, nu disco, house and future disco. Golden Soul Records became his home for warm, synth driven disco and left field rhythm structures. ITALO TANZ Records grew out of his wish to explore a more nocturnal identity. It became the place where he channels the intensity of classic drum machine energy, the pull of retro futuristic arpeggios, and the atmosphere of deep cosmic club culture.

ITALO TANZ Records stands for a sound that feels nostalgic yet forward leaning. It is a label for people who want to experience the mysterious side of Italo. The music invites the listener into a space where neon light meets starlit tension and where the essence of the eighties merges with a darker and more hypnotic interpretation of Hi Energy.

James Rod - Italoromatico (Kay-Chi Remix) [Italo Tanz]

A storm is brewing on Espacio Cielo. With Hurricane EP, TDWS (Ted Williams) channels the restless pulse of futuristic indie dance into a collection that feels both cinematic and built for late-night floors. Melodic and sharp, his sound bridges the nostalgia of Italo disco with a forward-looking energy that refuses to stand still.

The title cut Hurricane leads the charge with soaring synth lines and an emotional core that lingers long after the drop. Blackbird and Pursuit expand the spectrum, tracing new sonic horizons where driving basslines and textural details converge in hypnotic motion.

On remix duties, Parissior tears the original apart and rebuilds it at a higher speed. Distorted, raw, and unapologetically wild, his version of Hurricane pushes the EP into darker and more explosive territory.

TDWS - Hurricane (Parissior Remix)

BACK FROM THE WAVE returns to Space Factory with Tokyo Dream. The title piece drifts between Drexciya inflections and Detroit depth, a mix of cold precision and quiet romance. Strub follows with a darker energy that leans into EBM tension and a raw cold wave vocal texture. 

Changement D’Époque closes the release in collaboration with UMATIK. 
The track carries a driving dancefloor pulse and a reflective mood that unfolds with the distinctive touch of The Hacker.

Back From The Wave & Umatik - Changement d'Epoque

Protocol Exchange delivers a sharp fusion of techno, EBM, and trance, infused with futuristic sound design.

Equal parts raw and atmospheric, the track channels the energy of a high-intensity system booting into overdrive — immersive, hypnotic, and built for both the dancefloor and deep introspective moments.

With this release, Vaälha pushes his sonic identity further into a cutting-edge, cyber-industrial direction, sculpting a world where human emotion meets mechanical signal flow.

French born, Berlin based ELECTROSEXUAL was a key voice in shaping the French electroclash sound alongside peers like Miss Kittin, The Hacker, and Vitalic. He has also worked alongside artists such as Peaches, David Carretta, and Hanin Elias from Atari Teenage Riot over the last 20 years as a songwriter, composer, arranger, and musician. He has a famously raw analogue sound and has performed at the scene's most cult clubs. This new single lands soon after a remix for Captain Mustache on Mobilee Records and ahead of opening for KOMPROMAT (aka Vitalic and Rebekah Warrior)'s sold out show in Berlin this December.

The superb Like That captures ELECTROSEXUAL and vocalist Nicky Miller's shared vision of modern club culture. They wrote it spontaneously as a live performance, and it's political, emotional, and liberating as their chemistry merges sharp electronic production with Miller’s haunting vocal presence. Acid lines flash, serrated synths bring sharp angles, and slapping drums demand a physical response.

On remix duty is UK synth duo Hence, led by Daryl Bamonte, who worked extensively with Depeche Mode and The Cure, and who ELECTROSEXUAL has recently remixed. Their version is more stripped back, featuring a moody bassline and stark synth notes that bring a chilly futurism alongside steamy vocal sounds.

Next is Aquatic Love feat. Nicky Miller, another 303 soaked workout with steely drums and austere textures brought to life by steamy and intimate vocal whispers. It is bold and edgy for strobe lit floors.

Completing the release is Lèvres Roses Version de Nuit, a hypnotic and acid driven rework of the underground favourite that amps up the raw intensity and nocturnal allure.

Electrosexual - Like That feat. Nicky Miller


The French duo Kimshies, hailing from Lille and Paris, unveil their first EP on Polaris, marking the label’s 37th release. Longtime fixtures on Polaris’ radar, the pair deliver an explosive two-tracker blending analogue warmth, retro flair, and pure club energy. Following acclaimed outings on Dust & Blood and Roam Recordings, they continue to refine a sound driven by raw groove and sonic intensity. 

The title track, “Smacking the Beat”, kicks in with crisp drum machines, a thick analog bassline, and robotic vocal hooks that drive its irresistible groove. Distorted synths and shimmering arpeggios give it a vintage edge, while its evolving structure fuels peak-time intensity and late-night euphoria. 

On the flip, “Orgastic” explores deeper territory with a pulsating bassline, hazy vocals, and hypnotic tension. Layers of filtered synths and precise percussion create a sensual, immersive atmosphere, proof of Kimshies’ ability to fuse energy and emotion with finesse. 

With this debut, Kimshies affirm their identity on Polaris, vibrant, organic, and unapologetically alive.

No stranger to the music world, Man Power makes a powerful first appearance on Riotvan, and what a debut it is. Deep, Detroit-tinged, and playfully intricate, the EP moves far beyond a simple continuation of his previous work Iteration.

Adding extra depth, two exceptional artists also make their Riotvan debut with standout remixes. Jordan Nocturne delivers a masterclass in club functionality. No big-room dramatics, just pure, precision-built warehouse energy. Meanwhile, Inigo Vontier takes things into his own tripped-out orbit, propelling dancers into interstellar motion.

From start to finish, this release is serious dancefloor business, charged with that signature Riotvan playfulness we can’t get enough of.

Samo Records is excited to welcome the Italian trio F.U.R.O. to the label! They deliver three original tracks that blur the lines between post-punk, cold wave, and leftfield electronics. Each one pushing its own distinct energy and direction.

On remix duties, Italo Brutalo reimagines the title track into a peak-time rave weapon, injecting touches of acid and elevating the already powerful vocals.

The “Hooked” EP drops December 5th on all digital platforms.
