James Pepper and Love Affair Unveil Debut Collaboration: "Dream"


James Pepper, the renowned DJ and producer, is thrilled to announce his hotly-anticipated collaboration with the Trance specialist Love Affair. The debut track, "Dream," is a cutting-edge fusion of House and Techno.


"Dream" is the result of two innovators coming together to break boundaries and push the limits of electronic music. The track's mesmerising synths and driving basslines transport listeners on a journey through the intensity of the Techno sound and into the expansive, uplifting vibes of House.


James Pepper comments, "We have been sitting on this track for a while and didn’t know what we wanted to do with it. After seeing it go somewhat viral on TikTok we decided now is probably the time. We wanted to create something that was true to both of our sounds but also went beyond what we have done before. The result is a track that combines the energy and intensity of Techno with the euphoria and transcendence of House music. We can't wait for people to hear it!"


Having played at some of the most iconic venues and festivals across Australia, James Pepper is one of the most respected and exciting names in the electronic dance music scene. Love Affair is an illustrious duo featuring JP, with a reputation for delivering electrifying performances full of high tempo track with the dance floor in mind.


"Dream" is the first release from James Pepper and Love Affair's collaborative project, and showcases the electrifying sound the two producers have crafted together. The track is set to drop on all major platforms.

At last, we get doused from the source; four priors of reissued gems and newer beauts now land us at the quintus maximus: the inaugural Spray on Spray. It’s large and in charge, as we pull back the velvety curtain to reaffirm the exquisite curator is just-as-exquisite a melody maker. OT Rails adjusts the prog antenna to broadcast 3 anthems from the great big dance satellite in the sky, including a collaboration with French cuties Baraka. You’ve had your trad, now dance!

The title track struts along its psychedelic catwalk with a sexy house swagger, unlocking a wobbly stack of pineal-tickling melodies en route. The angels soon sing in positiva harmony, before the piano-lude calls for a tight embrace with those closest to you on the dancefloor. Raise those hands aloft, you know what’s coming; that hard house’d snare roll soon erupts and, before you know it, you’re soaring like the white dove you are. Why does it feel so good?

Spray then switches channel to Ceathair, coaxing the prog spirit from the motherland as the psilocybinised breaks wisp through the undergrowth. The vibe is bouncy, as the diva croons and bassline sings, before the vista opens and the sprayed piper summons you home. Open that third eye, súil eile.
Our swan song is reserved for Baraka and Spray, conjoining their tech trance powers on Think Of Me. The trio up the pace for the grand finale, rolling the tight groove from the off while igniting its hybridised trance rump with hypnotic fervour. The friendly mantra floats heavenly above throughout, absorbing you in a semi-lucid ecstatic state. It’s a whirlwind of dancefloor energy from beginning to end, and Spray wouldn’t have it any other way.

Alas, the long awaited Spriitzz Remix of Regularfantasy’s “So Sweet”. Spriittzz, otherwise known as Spray, the Irish producer with a magic touch of je ne sais quois. Spriitzz and Regularfantasy teamed up to make this dreamy dancefloor zinger to satisfy your mind and body. What genre is it? Some might say pop-inspired ‘90s house, meets progressive house, but you can’t really put a finger on it. “So Sweet”s futuristic nostalgia will have you running to the dancefloor and jumping for joy. The track originally came out on Regularfantasy’s EP “New Glow” in 2022, and it’s taken only a couple of years to cook up this tasty treat. Sit back, relax and get yourself a copy of this for your personal devices to enjoy at the club or off grid. Someone said they heard it while on LSD and said it was life-changing. Official release date Feb 23.
