Not just a beloved pair of artists come back to our ranks for this ERM128 - Ki Creighton & Makanan - but another two really huge DJs and producers have granted us the honor of remixing the duo. Paco Osuna and Yousef join elrow Music's roster of remixes with their own reinterpretation of this 'Lucid Dream EP', a four tracker EP with two originals by the pair and the two high-rolling remixes that starts with the track naming the EP.

'Lucid Dreams (Original Mix)' is an interesting work by Ki Creighton &Makanan, full of techy vibes, strong, tight percussion, a nice synth treatment that goes along the track and a remarkable vocal line by Shyam P. Paco Osuna reinterprets this track - 'Lucid Dreams (Paco Osuna Remix)' - giving it a techno twist, with a minimalist and repetitive progression, making an amazing use of the vocal line, turning the track into a total dancefloor killer thanks to the master use of the strings and the silence in certain moments of the track.

Then we have 'Black Heart (Original Mix)', a steadier and faster track in which Ki Creighton & Makanan make a great use of some bass sounds and wooden instruments, all combined with a great set of vocals that deepen the track along its overall vibe, closer to stronger and steadier rhythms, with a core progression that will tear up some dancefloors here and there. Finally, closing the EP is 'Black Heart (Yousef Circus Rework)', in which Circus' boss, Yousef, makes a more light-hearted track, with a techier progression, that comes closer to the house sound than the other tracks in this EP, deepening the vocal line, creating a clear breakdown by the middle of the song, and making this the most festive track of the bunch.

All in all, an amazing work by Ki Creighton & Makanan, that make a huge comeback to the label, that is rounded up by the astonishing reworks of two of the current heavyweights of the scene, Paco Osuna & Yousef. One of our most complete EPs to date! Don't miss it!

May is here, summer is closer and Ibiza is in the horizon for elrow Music and all of you, avid ravers, eager for dancing sounds! Your label of choice is back with another great debut in our ranks: British long lasting duo, Rhythm Masters. Reaching our EMR130th reference the lads deliver a great two tracker with remixes by Mele and our dear friend Andres Campo, adding extra dopeness to the overall result. Opening the EP is the title track, 'Bad Habit (Original Mix)', a track with a strong, tight percussion and echoing effects, that progresses adding more elements till introducing the looping vocal line, which gives the track a very distinctive character, resulting in a very danceable track. Melé, one of the new international DJ residents of the elrow brand, take on 'Bad Habit (Melé Remix)' comes after, in which the British artist uses a more minimalistic progression, a looser percussion with claps, and leaves the vocal loop in the background, turning the banger into a more transient track. Then we have the second original of the EP, 'Where's My Money (Original Mix)', that infuses us with the same danceable vibe of the first track, adding metallic, almost robotic FX, and a melody that appears by the middle of the track, with a ghetto kind of vocal loop, that turns almost into an extraterrestrial cry. Finally, closing this work we have 'Where's My Money (Andres Campo On The Groove Remix)', a track in which Andres Campo infuses the track with a more techno-like vibe, maintaining the focus around the vocal, and turning the progression into a more groovy and steady issue, with percussion loops and a powerful synth line that builds until breaking in true dancefloor madness, like in any elrow party. Big up for Rhythm Masters and the rest of the guys in this high rolling EP. and keep your eye and ears on us! As this summer will come packed with dancing surprises.

With May almost coming to an end, things have been hectic at elrow Music HQ. Not just Ibiza season is about to kick off (in fact, the opening is tomorrow, May 26th) in our favorite club of the island, Amnesia, but also there are several things that will forever change the way you see elrow Music in the future. Don't be afraid, we're just changing our images and logo, with a refreshed new image that we really hope you, our dear crowd, like.

To celebrate this overhauling, we have asked some of our dearest friends to remix our biggest tracks to date, creating this 'elrow Remixed vol. 1' series. In this delivery you'll be able to find three of our biggest tracks remixed by some of the hottest artists of the genre. These are Max Chapman's 'Body Jack' - our first #1 track in Beatport's general chart, supported by even bigger names as Carl Cox -, CAAL & Baum's 'Downtown Beat' - a major surprise for us, supported by artists ranging from Marco Carola to Dennis Ferrer -, and Ki Kreighton and Makanan's 'Trivial' - that not only blew Beatport, but also is the most streamed track of the label in Spotify -. For the occasion, we've chosen Franky Rizardo, Nathan Barato and Miguel Bastida to remix each of the tracks respectively, creating an unique blend of monstrous tech-house energy, each with a character of its own, creating an unique VA remix series, to be released next May 25th. Expect a second delivery, next July.

With all of the big news, a refreshed new image and yet more surprises to come in the following months, stay tuned for what is meant to be elrow Music's hottest summer to date!
