Toy Tonics ITALOMANIA Vol. 2  is a compilation dedicated to NEW ITALIAN DISCO (Not Italo Disco.)  13 young contemporary Italian producers made new organic disco, indie dance, avant pop and house tracks with Italian vocals. 

Everything on this compilation has been produced in 2023. 
Fresh dance music by Italian indie electronic star M¥SS KETA together with DJ Severino (of Horse Meat Disco) and newcomers Sam Ruffillo, Fimiani, Magou, Tommiboy, Daniel Monaco, Giovanni d'Amico. And new music by artists Stump Valley (from Dekmantel), Munk (Gomma records), Rodion (Slow Motion Records) and DJ legend Lele Sacchi.
 The ITALOMANIA compilation was initiated by Toy Tonics boss Kapote. The idea is to show the status of Italian Disco of today. It’s like a „manifesto“!
Kapote invited the most relevant Italian producers to make new tracks with Italian vocals and show different styles of modern Italian disco, dance and house music with Italian vocals. 

Album released 20.09.24

French lad THEOS is back with Dansu, fresh from smashing our party, with a lush two-tracker made for sunny days and smokey basements.

Wake Me Up is a smooth, soul-drenched roller featuring vocals from El Rod, where THEOS does his things on the keys, shelling proper feel-good vibes. B-side 'The One You Love' keeps it deep and jazzy, with that signature THEOS groove - one for the heads and the dancers alike.

Pure vibes, no filler.

THEOS - Wake Me Up (feat. El Rod) [Extended Mix]

R.i.O. welcomes a member. Straight in full length. An album created by Dorsten, North-Rhine-Westfalia based producer Aroma Von Troisdorf - a man who refuses to be put in a box. Unlike others, who politely stay in one lane, he is a tuneful shape shifter. Already his 2021 debut on the Cologne based label Papercup Records smashed Krautrock, Synth-pop, Electro, Ambient, and dub together. His 2023 and 2024 Papercup Ep’s "Buttergolem" and "Rodeln am Rhein" added Italo-Disco, Synth-pop and a drop of experimental Electro to his versatility. Now eight new creations, brilliantly composed, yet - even in odd flashes - effortlessly catchy. They bring once more a stylistic melting pot, now enlarged with The Cure-ish dreamscapes, stretching over guitar riffs and bass grooves, like in the closing ambient-folk star “Zeiten” or the dreamy opening track “Fog Frog Green”. There is the motorik krautrock pulse of “Osmopower”, that boogies heavy in drum machine hypnosis under Aroma’s entrancing new-wave vocals. Tunes like “Dreams Unfold” or “Amplify Shrooms” are likewise propulsive, each one psyching in its very own rhythmic sector. More voices are present too. In the two-minute manic preacher “Colas”, were Togolese rapper and political activist Yao Bobby chants edgy. Or in “Closer”, where singer Aprico sends spoken-word trances echoing through the cosmic jacking. And there is “Lovers Lake”, a hypnotic drift of witchy vocals, bluesy chords, and endless synthscapes, that makes you swim on your feed. Shift the shapes, “Blaumilch” opens the gates.

Premiere: Frag Maddin, ROTSCH - Touch Me [Human Machine Wisdom]

The new EP “Touch Me” by Frag Maddin & ROTSCH (out November 14th, 2025 via Human Machine Wisdom) was conceived as a raw homage to the origins of Jacking House.

In late-night studio sessions, the duo dug deep into the Chicago basement spirit that first ignited the global House movement, stripping the sound back to its essentials while recharging it with modern club energy. But “Touch Me” is more than just a nod to tradition. In an era dominated by AI, algorithms, and polished productions, the track is a reminder of the power of human connection. Frag Maddin & ROTSCH deliberately went for something primal and physical, music that doesn’t just move the ears but touches the body. The collaboration itself was equally organic.

What started as an experimental jam quickly evolved into a raw club weapon, with both artists feeding off each other’s energy and capturing lightning in a bottle. That spontaneity, that shared spark, is embedded in every track. For Frag Maddin & ROTSCH, House music is more than entertainment , it’s ritual. “Touch Me” was designed as a trigger for that collective experience, a moment where strangers on the floor become a community, moving in sync. It’s a track that connects past and future, human and machine, body and soul.

PREMIERE: Frag Maddin, ROTSCH - Keep it Underground [Human Machine Wisdom]

Frag Maddin has released EPs and remixes on some of the most respected labels in contemporary house and techno, including DVS1’s Mistress Recordings, Kerri Chandler’s Madhouse Records, 2000 and One’s Area Remote, George Morel’s Groove On, Waze & Odyssey’s W&O Street Tracks, Kevin McKay’s Glasgow Underground and Riva Starr’s Snatch! Records, among many others. His productions are characterised by a deep respect for the genre’s roots, combined with a modern, emotionally nuanced and often hypnotic approach to rhythm and groove.

For Frag Maddin, true art does not exist solely in the finished piece. It is born in the fleeting, almost intangible moment in which the artist becomes fully surrendered to a creative impulse - a state that draws him back to his personal Nullpunkt. In this space, ideas flow freely, where intuition and emotion merge and thought dissolves into instinct. It is here that the authentic essence of creation emerges: unfiltered, honest and raw.

When the artist succeeds in holding onto this Nullpunkt as a point of reference throughout the creative process, the final work transforms into something more than a track or a tool for the dance floor. It becomes a homage to that moment of pure presence - a sonic imprint of a state of being. This philosophy is at the heart of Frag Maddin’s artistic identity and flows through every release, every performance and every moment spent behind the machines.

Deeper House Podcast #55 - Frag Maddin

@fmn-live

releasing EPs and Remixes on renowned labels such as DVS1’s Mistress Recordings, Kerri Chandler’s Madhouse Records, 2000 and One’s Area Remote, George Morel’s Groove On, Waze & Odyssey’s „W&O Street Tracks“, Kevin McKay's "Glasgow Underground", Riva Starr‘s „Snatch Records“ and many more. 

True Art is not only the product in itself, but more than that it is also the ephemeral moment in which the artist is possessed by a creative impulse that brings them back to their "Nullpunkt". Ideas flow in a merging of creativity and emotion without the artist trying to think... When the artist manages to retain the "Nullpunkt" as the frame of reference in his artwork, that is what Frag Maddin understands as true art. The product becomes a hommage to that moment.
