Sprout presents some exciting new remixes of label favourite, Criss Sources’ 2005 monster hit, Hugs N Kisses.

To say a track like this can make a career, really isn’t the platitude you think. It was certainly career-defining, but came at just the right time after years of hard work. Coming up to three decades at the pinnacle of the industry goes to show how far removed from the idea of the one-trick pony Criss Source truly is. His legacy spans multiple genres and many high performing labels, including Harthouse, Parquet and Beat Boutique

Nearly 30 years of soundtracking dancefloors across the world, and building a back catalogue arsenal of club bombs to rival any of his peers. Originally released in December of 2004, Hug’s N Kisses became one of the most played tracks for the next 4 years. A true club anthem supported by everyone from DJ Hell and Carl Cox right through to John Digweed and Nick Warren. Presented here with fresh remixes for 2025 by Peter Makto and Riko & Gugga, new life is injected into one of clubland's most enduring moments.

Peter Makto’s mix opens innocently enough, building tension over the first half of the track, steadily adding percussion and deep bass and muted arps. Everything unleashes in the main break, filters open the energy turns up to 11 and the dancefloor explodes in melody, and joyous excitement.

Riko & Gugga hit the ground running with a Bladerunner-esque bass and galloping percussion before acid shots and crazy psy-trance fx drive the floor wild. Aimed squarely at the peak-time, this is one secret weapon you deploy with great care. Once you set this one off theres no going back!

<p>After their appearance on our &#8220;Abilities&#8221; compilation, Steam Shape come out swinging with four shadowy tracks. &#8220;Output&#8221; is up first, with hypnotic electronics clearing the way for grand stabs and melodic riffs over a grinding rhythm section. &#8220;Eris&#8221; picks up from there and whips out the looped-out vocals, as acidic phrases and shattering sub-bass interlock effortlessly with the rocksteady drumset. The title tracks&#8217;s rumbling low-end provides the perfect backdrop for creeping synthesis and tasty, staccato chords which ultimately lead us to the closing &#8220;Predestination&#8221; where we are introduced to frantic claps, unfolding synths and haunting phrases.</p>

Electrobirds EP

Maksim Dark - Electrobirds (Original Mix)-Octopus Black Label - OCTBLK039

Sian´s Capital Crimewave LP broke a lot of rules on its release. Hot track playlisted on both iTunes and Spotify, and receiving unanimous praise in the press - the LP featured a dizzying blend of Dub, Techno, Hip Hop and Acid: ballsy, unapologetically eclectic and ruthless in its execution. For the remix pack we looked hard into the current state of affairs and chose some purely unique and fearless artists who all had one thing in common: a clear signature sound that defines their entire body of work. Featuring the high art dance floor freakiness of Lee Van Dowski; the low slung, post-soviet mechanics of Maksim Dark; Japanese new-school perfectionism from Hoshina Anniversary and of course the sheer, raw energy blast that is Black Asteroid.

Justin James is set to release a full remix package from his debut LP, 'Compile,' featuring remix contributions from an all-star line-up of techno heavyweights. This offering appropriately named Compile [revisited] includes twelve unique interpretations of Compile’s originals from visionaries such as Sudo, Raul Facio, Jorge Ciccioli, Elmar Strathe, Joop Junior, Sean Random, Nathan Jonson, Ataxia, Fer BR, Florian Frings, Click Box, and 4Yo4U.  

Released on refused. last year, James' first artist album titled 'Compile' ignited the sacred techno culture. The twelve hard hitting original productions demonstrated Justin's high regard within the realms of the underground music world. Each track embodies Justin's production precision and ability to deliver powerful percussion propelled by driving basslines which have become authentic signatures of his work. This sonically encapsulating album paid true homage to Justin's craft, further cementing his stamp on the glorious genre of techno.
