Italian duo Dirty Channels make their Glitterbox debut following several standout DJ sets playing for the party, and the disco house track 'Make You Cry' aligns perfectly with the label's catalogue of dancefloor gems. The pair, comprised of Take It Easy label residents Davide Le Merlus and Simone Giudici, utilise classic production techniques to great effect and this release is no exception. Short, sampled loops are manipulated with ease, generating energy as a sidechained 4x4 kick transports you to an Italian all-night disco.

Two decades after this seminal classic swept over Europe, topping the UK Singles chart and charting in the Netherlands, New Zealand, Finland and Ireland, The Shapeshifters aka Simon Marlin is back with a VIP edit of 'Lola's Theme'. This reimagining, previously made as an exclusive for The Shapeshifters' DJ sets, celebrates all that made the original so iconic; brassy vocals and a disco sensibility challenged the status quo while remaining universally appealing. Now Glitterbox have acquired the rights, this version updates the classic with the club in mind, while remaining an anthem of love, acceptance, and equality.

Bouncy, cool and addictive, 'Piano Pump' from Berlin's Superlover first filled floors in 2019, blending house and Italo disco for an understated record with international appeal. The certified tune then caught the attention of the Italian duo NiCe7, who over the years have released on Crosstown Rebels, Snatch! and DFTD, building an impressive collection of remixes with tracks from Claptone and Jon Cutler among many others, as well as collaborating frequently with fellow Italian duo Dirty Channels. Now the pair disco-fy 'Piano Pump' with an exclusive Glitterbox remix, retaining the original's juicy charm while updating the track for modern soul-seekers who yearn for the dancefloor.

Glitterbox Radio Show 402: New Years Special

A multifaceted artist, who over his career has traversed between singer-songwriter, hit producer, DJ and curator, Ben Westbeech now debuts on Glitterbox Recordings with a fully realised and fresh artistic vision. From the release of his mature debut album Welcome to the Best Years of Your Life for Gilles Peterson’s Brownswood label, to his chart-topping club records as Breach, and work as The Vision on Defected, his latest work sees Ben step back from his frontman role to spotlight new vocal talent. One of the artists who caught his eye was captivating UK talent RAHH, perhaps best known for her chart-topping release with Prospa ‘This Rhythm’ on Circoloco Recordings in 2024. Born out of a series of sessions at Defected’s London studios, this striking label debut ‘Times Are Changing’ is a manifestation of Ben’s long-held career reputation as a magnet for talent, as RAHH’s flawless vocal and the considered songwriting bewitches listeners. With a combination of jazzy bass, its journey-like arrangement and additional vocals from inimitable Detroit trio Dames Brownq, the uplifting and anthemic qualities of ‘Times Are Changing’ are undeniable. And this is just the start for Ben Westbeech and Glitterbox.

Nightlife authority Alan Dixon reimagines a defining house classic on Glitterbox, ‘Infinity’ by Infinity Ink. A firm friend of Glitterbox, the producer, DJ and label founder’s previous label outings include ‘Sunday Stomper’ with Will Tramp and ‘Nothing But Happiness’, with the latter receiving much play from Danny Krivit, Folamour and Dave Lee (JN). His relationship with the London label continues to grow in 2025, with upcoming sets at fabric in London for sister label Defected, their flagship festival in Croatia plus an impressive Ibiza showing planned for the summer… Originally released in 2012 by Luca Cazal and Ali Love as Infinity Ink, ‘Infinity’ would quickly become a standout record from the second ‘golden-era of house’ in the 2010s; now Alan Dixon adds an explosive, synth-laden verve to the seminal classic for a Glitterbox release built for modern dancefloors.

One of French electronic music’s most revered names, The Reflex debuts on Glitterbox with the long-awaited ID ‘Weekend’. The now London-based producer, DJ and remixer is widely celebrated for his ‘revisions’, deep diving into the stems of tracks and re-building them from the ground up. He has added his signature to hundreds of classic tracks from A-list artists, clocking in over 100 million streams and earning him major respect from the scene’s very best - including Nile Rogers, Disclosure, Mousse T., Gilles Peterson and famed ‘Thriller’ songwriter Rod Temperton to name a very small few. Originally debuted in December 2018 as a rough demo in The Reflex’s ‘Mastertapes' series, ‘Weekend’ quickly became a reliable secret weapon for his DJ sets across the globe – soon to include Glitterbox’s summer season at Hï Ibiza and the label’s stage at Defected Malta in 2025. His most requested track ever, ‘Weekend’ was created with Scottish producer and long-time friend Johnny Copland who lends his multi-instrumental talents to the record; with its incredibly catchy hooks and undeniable feel-good vibes, The Reflex’s ‘Weekend’ is now finally released unto the world.

What is there to say about an iconic track like ‘Lola’s Theme’; a song that has transcended time, genres and trends since it was released in 2004. Thirteen years later and still sounding as relevant as ever, The Shapeshifters present a fresh Recut especially for the burgeoning Glitterbox Recordings imprint. 

The ‘Recut’ itself, from The Shapeshifters themselves (aka Max Reich and Simon Marlin) is a tougher club version which comes along with a ‘Radio Edit’. Purple Disco Machine gives his customary blissed-out disco vibes, amped up by sumptuously saturated instrumentals and a live, festival feel. German producer Superlover, who is a familiar face on labels such as Suara and Mother, gets creative with the bassline, producing a deeper-reaching remix that still maintains the euphoric feel. Finally, Dr Packer adds instrumentation, filtering the vocal to create the nostalgic, early 2000s feel, brought to a climax by a textbook keyboard solo. Recruiting two seasoned masters of the disco edit and Glitterbox favourites Dr Packer and Purple Disco Machine as well as king of tight grooves Superlover, ‘Lola’s Theme Recut’ is the perfect 2017 update to a timeless work of art.

Defected Croatia Sessions - The Shapeshifters Ep.04

Rarely does an artist pay homage to the classics like Dimitri From Paris. The Grammy nominated producer, remixer, composer and DJ has made every one of his repertoire of reworks sound effortless; no mean feat when the original tracks are by the likes of Disco’s greatest musicians. He has a long history of remixing classic records, starting in the late 80s and culminating in this achievement of a lifetime, ‘Dimitri From Paris presents Le CHIC Remix’.


This 20-track album features three brand new remixes alongside the much-loved essentials all brilliantly remastered for 2018, tracks that have resonated with artists from Frankie Knuckles to Disclosure, Gilles Peterson to Mark Ronson. Alongside the remixes are instrumentals of each (four of which are previously unreleased), for the ultimate bumper pack. For this project Dimitri was entrusted to use the original studio masters from circa 1978 - 1980 that feature all of the individually recorded musical and vocal elements. The songs have been respectfully remastered, unveiling never-before-heard performances, turning the spotlight on the beautiful orchestrations of one the most unique and highly-revered production duos of the Disco era and beyond; Nile Rodgers & Bernard Edwards, along with their CHIC Organization of musicians. 
Kicking off with the unmistakeable CHIC staple ‘Le Freak’, Dimitri’s timeless remix making the exquisite instrumental harmonies shine like only Dimitri can, the album delves next into ‘Lost In Music’ and CHIC’s classic ‘I Want Your Love’. Norma Jean Wright’s life-affirming ‘Saturday’, written by CHIC along with Robert L Cotter in 1978, has been remixed by Dimitri to cinematic proportions, the climax of many of his DJ sets. Sister Sledge’s ‘He’s The Greatest Dancer’ is given the Dimitri treatment with a new extended mix, drawing out the string motifs, showcasing unheard sections from the original master tapes, sounding better than ever. Further exclusives include ‘My Forbidden Lover’ and another Sister Sledge masterpiece, ‘Got To Love Somebody’ with cowbell and horns resplendent. More highlights include a new remaster of Sister Sledge’s evergreen ‘Thinking Of You’ and the final track, an underdog from French chanson singer turned one-time Disco act, Sheila & B. Devotion ‘Your Love Is Good’, a euphoric high to close on and another track using elements from never-heard-before recorded outtakes.

Through Disco grooves and meticulously reverent production, ‘Dimitri From Paris presents Le CHIC Remix’ gets to the heart of why CHIC’s music remains so universally relevant, underlining the enduring cultural significance of dance music in its most unabashed form. This album is a demonstration of how captivating the sound of a full orchestra of musicians can be, compared to today’s largely computer generated offerings, celebrating the eternally endearing qualities of some of CHIC’s best-selling productions, not to mention, for over 40 years, the unquestionable power of a great Disco record.
