He’s back! 18 months have passed since he helped Holic Trax launch with the evergreen ‘Danceaholics’ EP, Mr G returns to Tomoki Tamura’s label with another session of insatiable tech soul. 
One of the most venerated men in techno, Colin McBean paints from a strictly timeless sound palette. Refusing to kowtow to any trends or fads, both he and his collection of analogue hardware have remained highly relevant and well respected for almost 15 years. Naturally this latest EP is no exception. 
We kick off with ‘A G Moment’. Strutting with Detroitian distinction, the groove is awash with thick woozy chords. Instantly captivating, they set the foundations for the dual vocal trickery that follows as the lead loop is complemented by swooning ‘oohs’ in the background. Undiluted galvanised soul, it’s G at his most playful and sonically seductive.
‘So Get Down’ follows with percussive panache. A forthright fusion of thundering kicks and rolling bongos, we’re soon introduced to a cheeky snippet of a very well-known vocal. Guaranteeing that your floor will ride on time, every time, the beautiful simplicity and solidity of this is matchless. 
A firing funk finale, ‘Whant It’ closes the show. Swaggering with full flavoured drum dynamics, Mr G’s trademark hip-shaking infectiousness is in full effect. With just enough space in the swinging rhythm to introduce a sexy, purring vocal and icy star-gazing pads, it’s yet another sensuous showdown.
Another sweat-inducing session from Holic Trax and another exemplary exercise in classic contemporary techno from M G: have yourself ‘A G Moment’ today.

A2 We Can't Stop
B1 Ishine Ushine
B2 We can't stop (Shonky edit) - Vinyl Only

Digi only - Robert Dietz & Tuccillo - Juice (Shonky edit)

The next EP on Holic Trax, limited to 500 coloured vinyl, is a collaboration from Running Back & Desolat man Robert Dietz and Ibiza based house talent Tuccillo complete with a edit from Frenchman and Apollonia member, Shonky.
Robert Dietz has long been crafting essential tech house and minimal grooves on Desolat as well as his own labels, and Tuccillo has recently shot to fame off the back of EPs on labels like 2020Vision and Holic Trax. Together they are a hugely talented pairing as the three original tracks here prove.
Kicking off the EP is ‘Juice’, an amped up and full-blooded house cut with rattling metallic percussion,loopy sub bass and plenty of dancing potential. It’s quick, a little trippy and certainly engaging. Next up, ‘We Can’t Stop’ is less intense, but is still built on warm rubbery kick drums. Sharp edged percussive ticks help drive the thing along and act as little hooks that you cant help but latch onto.
Searching synths span the track’s horizon at the mid point and when it kicks once again there’s analien air to the thing that makes it a little bit spooky.
‘Ishine Ushine’ is a much more broken beat and playful affair, with tumbling drums and percussion,party starting horns and more loopy bass all coalescing into a funky, fun bit of house music.Last but not least, Shonky re-works ‘We Can’t Stop’ into a sleek, seductive and trance inducing house number with a constant groove that really pulls you in. It’s textbook Shonky and rounds out the vinyl in some style. Buy the EP digitally and you’ll also get a Shonky rework of ‘Juice’ that is fat, urgent, and
intricately groove driven. 
This dream team paring doesn’t disappoint!

Rick Wade is one of Detroit and house music's most consistent performers. He is a master of crafting tools that never miss on the floor but also have the sort of character that means they endure across the ages and remain impervious to passing trends. Art Is The Place has his latest, and it opens with the angelic vocals of 'Level Up' over a whimsical groove, then 'Big Ha Blues' gets more deep and zoned out with pillowy pads and wet claps. 'Intrusive Emotions' has a more grinding low end but stays slow and is softened by jazz keys, then 'Bitter Sweet brings some dust and grit. Another faultless outing from Wade.

Radio Pager Episode 62 - Apua

Across six tracks, a dream unfurls into sound – patterns emerging like scattered water droplets, a flowing dance of chance and texture.
For Turmalin Dub, Tom of Terram (an alias of Tom Sprenger, one half of Hektisch Sprengen) teams up with Listensport. This EP flourishes in the fertile space between the organic and the synthetic, where textures breathe and rhythms pulse like living beings. It is shaped by five original creations and a ’90s-inspired French Dreamspell house remix by RAMZi, carrying the timeless spirit of the dancefloor.

Turmalin Dub stands as a musical crystal, refracting light into deep colour and pulse; a fortress for the spirited and unconventional, an elegant tapestry of sound. The opening track weaves psychedelic hues with Balearic warmth, dubwise basslines, and whispers of slippery roots-reggae dub. Trance-inflected echoes flow together like water: from immersive ambient waves to intricate patterns and softly blurred dub techno. The release closes with Spirit, a track echoing the warmth and sway of trancehall, bridging introspective moments and the kinetic energy of a floor in motion.

PREMIERE: Tom of Terram - Hasaru [Terra Magica Rec.]

https://www.rushhour.nl/record/vinyl/acid-reaction

„Acid Reaction“ is the first in a series of new releases by Danilo Plessow (MCDE). After having recently spent a lot of studio time recording bands for his disco-focused label Space Grapes, this marks a return to electronic music. Releasing on Rush Hour in mid-November!

The title Rude Futures serves as a meta commentary on the realities of the modern digital age, the dawn of AI and its impact on art and society. Musically, it's a darker, more twisted turn to Danilo’s studio experiments - with a nod to early house and techno.

Acid Reaction (The Journey Mix)

Artist: Sourires
Title: To Be Leaving

Label: Saint Wax

Sourires is back on Saint Wax. This time with a mix of fresh sounds and disco references on one side.
On the other, he delights us with the soul samples and old school beats that set him apart. 
To be leaving is a must-have album if you want to be transported in an instant from a dimly lit aperitif to a sparkling dance floor.

Premiere | Sourires - Hard Days (SW012)

Recorded in 2017, Strange finds Gideon Jackson in full flow, bumpy, melodic, and raw slices of tech house that showcase the sound he helped shape in London’s underground.

We’re putting this mix out now to mark something special: Gideon’s long-awaited return to the decks, first at Archivio presents Wiggle (H0L0, NYC – Oct 18) and then at Wiggle (Gaffe, London – Nov 1). The mix is both a snapshot of where he came from and a taste of the roots he’ll be digging back into for these shows.

A reminder of why his name is woven into the early fabric of London’s tech house movement, and why we’re so excited to welcome him back.

Gideon Jackson - Strange Mix (2017)

It’s a sunny morning of October the 12th,  2024. Right after blissful with attitude @Lamache, the closing service was handed over to THAT duo of locals - @aisteregina & @donatas_chipak. They were not rushing to finish the ceremony, and luckily, here is the recording. The morning was fun, and no signs of stopping were prescribed.

Artist: Tomoki Tamura
Title: Three Thousand Stars EP
Label: Holic Trax
Cat. No. HT020

A1 Three Thousand Stars
A2 Three Thousand dub
A3 Keypella 4 U
B1 Room 202
B2 NY Bassworks - Vinyl Only

To mark the 20th release on essential house label Holic Trax, boss man Tomoki Tamura steps up wth his first solo outing on the imprint. Coming on vinyl and digital, one of the cuts is a sample for you to use on your own tracks that you can then fire back to the label.
Founded in 2012, this go-to label is run by London based Japanese DJ and producer Tomoki, who has A&Red some rock solid, no nonsense house music from artists like Mr G, Rick Wade, Tuccillo, Keita Sano and many other key talents. Now he impresses with four of his own firing cuts which will hopefully be the first of many.
The title track gets things underway with big flabby bass underpinning trippy synth details and loopy drums. It is a straight up house jam that is deep and driving, sprinkled with twinkling melody and will make a big impact in any set. An even more stripped back and direct dub version is included for those who like it deep and playful. The absorbing ‘Keypella 4 U’ is a spooky thirty-second synth sample that is fluid and cosmic, and can be used in your own music in anyway you like.
The creepy ‘Room 202’ is an atmospheric number with sci-fi sounds and deep space synths all unfolding over a machine drum line and forceful kicks. It is back room dancing dynamite that will make anyone sweat. Last but not least, standout vinyl only treat ‘NY Bassworks’ is a skipping, percussive house number with wonky sine waves and crisp hits all jacking you into a groove.
This is another faultless releases on Holic Trax that will win the boss and his label many new fans as a result.

A1. Do It
A2. What Row (Vinyl Only)
B1. To Ray
*Digital Only. You Know

Tomoki Tamura’s Holic Trax label has long been renowned as a canny exporter of clued in house and techno. Their latest continues in this regard, as Tamura again calls on a series of renowned label friends to bring the heat. With names such as Mr.G, Satoshi Tommie and Tuccillo all appearing it here alongside Tamura himself, it’s no surprise that this 3 x vinyl record, celebrating 5 years of the label, is filled with drama and high points throughout.
This is immediately obvious from Mr.G’s “Soba Shioyaki”. Titled in homage to the label’s Japanese heritage, it’s a dark and dexterous workout that marks another high point in a career filled with big records. Deep but tough, it’s a perfect of why the tech house master is so revered in underground circles. G’s “Komorebi” puts a tough emphasis on the drums, as well as a weaving, subtle baseline that adds a further dynamic to his work here. 
HT24 comes from Satoshi Tommiie & Tuccillo, two producers whose sounds are perfectly suited to Holic’s output. Their four-track contribution starts with “Do It”, a spiky catchy number that’s exciting from the off. “What Row” sees the boys inject some added funk into the equation, before “To Ray” ups the intensity with a raw, pulverising aesthetic that takes no prisoners. Wrapping up their side of the bargain is the digital only “You Know”, a real bumper of a track with Chicago-inspired synth stabs that help bring it to higher planes.
It’s the left to Tamura himself to close the offering via HT25. A1, the appropriately named “5ive Years’ is a techno workout of the type that’s notable for its off-kilter motifs and a stubborn, industrial feel. Unforgiving and full of atmosphere, it’s the sign of a producer who clearly knows his way around he mixing deck. “Polyphonic Six” displays the producer’s more introspective sound thanks to a melancholic perspective that’s hard not to embrace. All things told, this is a wonderfully diverse package from Tamura & co. Here’s to the next 5!
