Gabu Records welcomes Berlin-based Austrian duo Foehn & Jerome with their latest EP, Off-Road Dreams. This four-track deep house release blends groove, nostalgia, and modern club energy, reinforcing their place in the underground scene.
Opening with Emser, shimmering pianos and hypnotic 80s funk grooves set an uplifting tone, transitioning into Golden Egg, a 90s-infused, slow-burning deep house journey. Dirtbike shifts into darker territory with old-school garage elements and a pulsing bassline, while Phassou closes the EP with high-energy, cascading nostalgic synths.
Active in Berlin’s underground since 2011, Foehn & Jerome have cultivated a community through their Perfumed Freedom events at Club der Visionaere. As they gear up for a new record label, Off-Road Dreams marks a key milestone. Released on Gabu Records, a hub for forward-thinking electronic music, the EP cements their innovative approach to deep house.

True to the label’s vision - championing deep sounds from the Middle East and beyond - this Various Artists release distills Gabu’s essence into six standout tracks. Baloo & Carlo open with Vera, a breezy, sunlit groove full of warmth and understated funk, setting the tone for what follows. Nail steps in with On The Corner, a moody, heads-down deep house roller with rich textures and hypnotic flair. Emanuele Barilli brings the bounce with Deep & Fun, playful yet grounded in groove, a perfect balance of dancefloor energy and musicality. On the back half, Horsemen’s Back Then rides in with nostalgic chords and crisp drums—an ode to classic house with a modern twist.

Gabu opens a new chapter with the launch of a fresh series, and the first release comes from none other than Dabous, the Riyadh-based producer making waves far beyond the Saudi underground. Known for his deep, hypnotic house and dub-infused sound, Dabous has already brought his energy to stages like MDL Beast Soundstorm, performing alongside global icons of the scene.

With Ceiling, he strips things down to their essence: mysterious pulses, heavy low-end echoes, and the kind of heady groove that lingers long after the last beat fades. It’s music that feels at once intimate and expansive, born from the underground, shaped for deep listeners, and carrying the unmistakable Gabu signature.

The series will launch first on Bandcamp, giving early supporters exclusive access, before rolling out across all major platforms in the months that follow.

Dabous - Ceiling

PREMIERE: Omar Fayyad - Rhythm & Chord

Gabu celebrates the sound of Saudi’s deeper underground. Gabu, a pan Arabic colloquial term for basement, is the home for deeper house, from the emotive to the downright filthiest of grooves, connecting house tribes from around the Middle East and the world.
