Release Date: July 25th, 2025
Info: RUTA unveils its second Various Artists compilation, Erre, a release rooted in club music experimentation and aligned with the label’s commitment to a transnational creative ethos. With contributors hailing from Colombia, Mexico, Ecuador, Germany, the U.S., China, U.K., and France, the compilation reads as a dispatch from a network of producers who share an intuitive understanding of rhythm-forward, bass-weighted dance music, no matter where they call home.
The tracklist offers a dynamic, shapeshifting palette: vocal-driven club tracks collide with broken rhythms, angular leftfield techno mutations, dembow-oriented tools, and even UK garage hybrids. No single genre binds it all together, only a sonic attitude marked by intensity, boldness, and a diasporic rhythmic fluency.
Erre is more than a showcase of tracks, it signals a maturation moment for RUTA, a label of Colombian origin operating from Germany, as it shapes its position within a more global, post-local club continuum. By drawing together both long-time collaborators and newer voices connected by a shared musical language, Erre builds not just a compilation, but an evolving platform for shared expression.

*PREMIERE* Pino Peña - Tulip (Off The Meds Vocal Edit)

Magugu & Le Motel - Bitter Better

Shai FM - Plume

Following his debut EP Foreign Exchange, Somatic Rituals co-founder returns to the label with Clepto Loop: a track shaped for high-energy club settings. Driven by hypnotic, hard-hitting kicks and sizzling, textured sound design, the track leans into a raw, functional aesthetic. Repetitive vocal fragments loop throughout, creating a sense of tension and propulsion that blurs the line between Techno and Bass. A pure DJ tool with personality — Somatic Rituals re-ups the energy with this stripped-back, bass-weighted belter.

All proceeds from this release will be donated directly to support the Abu Zereiq family in Gaza.

Kombé - Clepto Loop

For the first time ever, Berlin-based producers DJ Spit and Mathis Ruffing link up for a 4 track collaboration. Tekky, bass-heavy and built for sweaty floors, these cuts channel the pulse of the two like minded heads and push club systems to their limit.

Listen to "Mindbreaker" by Kendu Bari taken from "Drink For Your Machine" EP out on October 10th via Who's Susan

Pre-order: https://kendubari.bandcamp.com/album/drink-for-your-machine

Kendu Bari steps out on Who's Susan with his four headed monster, Drink for your Machine. The EP is bold, bass heavy and strongly influenced by cyberpunk nostalgia.

The Sann Odea co-owner, known for his weighty live performances, brings the same focused intensity to his DJ sets, recently heard at The Lot Radio in New York and during the legendary closing weekend of De School. We're very excited for this one as we believe that he is one of the most exciting voices in modern bass music.

So sit back and let your machine sip what it's been thirsting for.

NÜ PREMIERE : MinReCuliao x MATO - Soft Touch(CRTTR)

All Centre welcomes Helsinki-based producer Rizio to the roster for his debut on the label. After a breakout 2024 with his first EP on No Snakes and a recent standout appearance on YUKU’s Fresh Faces compilation, Rizio continues to refine his intricate, bass-heavy sound on the Hyperobject EP. Rizio merges geometric rhythms, warped textures and sub-aquatic bass with vaporous tonal movements.

Digital Spell sets the tone with discordant drones and pounding kicks, quickly locking into a mechanical yet hypnotic groove. Metallic accents and glitched textures scatter across the surface. Dubbed-out bass hits enter the mix as the track strikes a perfect balance between a heady atmosphere and a physical dancefloor cut.

The title track Hyperobject lurches forward with a mangled vocal loop and surging bassline, rising to feverish intensity before collapsing into a skeletal, broken-beat rhythm. Rizio’s dynamic sound design creates constant pressure and release, making this a devastating peak-time tool.

Closing track Channel Code emerges with a sub-heavy, atmospheric intro before launching into a high-tempo electro-inspired groove with dubby snares ricocheting through the mix. As the track morphs and grows, an elusive vocal hook slowly surfaces, anchoring the track as it evolves into a shadowy, late-night driver.

Hyperobject is available across all digital platforms from October 17th.

Hassan Abou Alam - Tool #22

129 BPM Funky 808 Breakbeat, "Music Soldier" Available @ https://undergrounddancemusic.bandcamp.com/album/music-soldier-3

Music Soldier

Hassan Abou Alam is one of Egypt’s musical exports, steadily publishing his work since 2008 on diverse labels such as Naive, Banoffee Pies, Rhythm Section, Casa Voyager and more.

Since 2008, Hassan has been playing around with his gear, forging multiple live performances. A hard to pin down sound that utilizes analog and digital instruments, a form of organized chaos that he portrays with extreme finesse—his Boiler Room set last year is testament to his genre bending capabilities. Through Red Bull’s RBMA Abou Alam was given a chance to mingle musically with the ancient people of Luxor. The result? A phenomenal live performance in Cairo two years ago fusing traditional folklore with electronica, successfully pinning him as one of Egypt’s most versatile musicians.

His sound as a DJ is constantly evolving, springing to life through the crevices of house, breaks, noise, bass, grime, techno and more.
