It's Later Than You Think

Stab Stealer

Since its inception in 2020, Italo Moderni’s energy, spirit and inspiration has been the dancefloor. The darkened bunkers of Belgium, the trembling speakers of Valencia, the warming dawn of Rimini, these influences have been the lifeblood. Solidifying this tireless effort, Mellow Bangers Vol 2 is the label’s most ambitious collection to date.

In celebration of the imprint’s fifth anniversary, fifteen artists gather with every single one united under a rallying cry. From across the globe, machinists have been drawn together to deliver a statement of acid and wave, of electro and synth with flourishes of italo. The shadowy fringes of the floor are well represented, audio artisans like Cyrk and Djedjotronic serving distorted drums and melodies dripping with menace. Brightening these tones are the likes of Lauer with his Balearic infusions or Gravedad Cinética’s otherworldly “Fake Atmosphere.” Amongst the litany of talent are musicians who have both inspired Italo Moderni as well as those who have appeared on the label. Antoni Maiovvi fits such a description, the sound sorcerer slicing beats through bittersweet bars in the immersive “Stopping Power.” Ceaselessly developing the Spanish scene, Iberian artists are rightly showcased. Madrid’s David Ponziano offers the cascading luminance of “In Search of Gold”, shimmering synthlines punctuated by breathy samples and pulsing percussion. New discoveries rub shoulders with established veterans, E-Bony’s bending and undulating “Brain U.F.O.” beside rising names like Ivan Pavletsov with the steely “No Future” and DjBoeing with the beaming joy of “Cheetah.”
Mellow Bangers Vol 2 is a breathless expression of the floor. A contemporary imagining of the racing rhythms and addictive hooks of the 1980s and 1990s. Fifteen works that summarise what Italo Moderni is and will continue to be.

PREMIERE: Shjva - Celestial Dub

Epicure Records is thrilled to present a new EP from Danish producer Wille.

At the intersection between sunny, happy, dark and trippy, you'll find Copenhagen native William 'Wille' Winding trucking along. The lifelong DJ and producer’s sound is a tapestry of seemingly disparate musical connections, from Italo and Acid House to Balearic Disco, driven by a self-professed mantra of "never second guessing yourself." This new release features three original tracks, each highlighting a different shade of his sound.

The opening track NDE On MTV is a radiant ode to the coming summer, a sun-soaked banger driven by infectious melodies and a bassline that instantly gets you moving. It captures the carefree energy of the season with a euphoric, dancefloor-ready vibe. Accompanying the original is a stunning piano mix that reimagines the track in a more introspective, trance-inflected light. The piano takes center stage, weaving through the melodies and opening up a dreamy emotional landscape.

The third original track, Jacque’s Vallet, dives into deeper territory, layering smooth pads and subtle textures over a silky groove. It’s the kind of track that fits effortlessly into any setting, equally powerful on a late-night dancefloor or during a solitary listening session.

Rounding out the release are three remixes that expand the EP’s reach even further.

Elfenberg, a name that needs no introduction, reworks the title track with his signature blend of acid and catchy progressive house, elevating it to peak-time energy.

French producer Margee brings a double dose of sunshine straight from the South of France with two reinterpretations, one leaning into his acid downtempo mastery and the other a dub version that’s both sensual and hypnotic, perfect for spring nights and long summer parties.

This EP is a celebration of versatility, warmth and dancefloor magic. An essential for the months ahead.

Epicureans from all over, let’s take a ride together !
