Born in Peru and now based in Phoenix, Gio Lucca (ISO, Black Book, Deeperfect) is on a mission to make people dance and boogie, and the titled "Control" EP on La Zic is a testament to his commitment. With support from some of the industry’s best, such as Jamie Jones and Marco Carola, to name a few, Gio Lucca's ascent to the major stages seems to be inevitable and under... control.

Retro-house fat drums and funky disco jabs are the bread and butter on the lead track, while "Keep It Quiet" - in collaboration with Argentinian talent Julio Bravo - offers glitchy atmospheres, tight grooves, and deadly, pointy bass licks. The EP gets enriched by two remixes, with Proudly People delivering a rolling, tech version designed for the early hour moments on the terrace, while Lolu Menayed sets the tone with a dreamy, afterhours tool.

As Hot Creations celebrates its 15th anniversary in 2025, label co-founder Lee Foss makes a long-awaited return to the imprint for the first time in half a decade with a powerful new collaboration alongside Colorado-based talent GS5. Titled ‘In The Ghetto’, the two-track release sees one of the label’s originators link up with a standout new-school voice for a release that bridges eras, aesthetics, and dancefloors. 

“It’s always exciting to come back to the label that started it all for me,” says Foss. “Jamie and I put so much into Hot Creations in those early days, and it set up my career for so much success. ‘In The Ghetto’ feels like the perfect release to return with. It has some of the deep, soulful, and abstract elements that marked my early work on the label, merged with the modern, skippy, minimal and techy trademarks of today. GS5 is an exciting new artist from Denver who reached out with some cool demos and was interested in collaborating, and I knew as soon as we got to work that these would be perfect for HC.” 

Lead track ‘In The Ghetto’ hits with low-slung swagger and vibrant vocal energy, channelling a bass-heavy strut and hypnotic vocal loops that nod to early Hot Creations flavours while pushing into contemporary terrain. On the flip, ‘Hardest’ brings a tougher-edged groove and hazy late-night vibe, peppered with sharp percussion and warped vocal work to bring after-hours pressure. 

GS5 adds: “With Hot Natured being some of my earliest introductions to electronic music, this release means the world to me. Being given the opportunity to work with one of my biggest inspirations and to land this on his label with Jamie Jones is a dream come true.” 

A pioneering force in the evolution of modern house music, Lee Foss has left an indelible mark on global dance culture through his work as a producer, DJ, and label head. From shaping a new era with Hot Natured to launching his chart-topping Repopulate Mars imprint, Foss continues to set the tone across the scene, and his return arrives just days before he joins the Paradise family once again at UNVRS in Ibiza on 17th September. GS5, meanwhile, has been quickly rising through the ranks, making noise with releases on Hood Politics and Material Series and making appearances for Experts Only and range. With heavy support from both Hot Creations co-founders, he’s building a reputation as a name to know when it comes to talents causing a stir stateside.
