Life and Death founder Manfredi Romano aka DJ Tennis debuts on Aus with ‘Repeater’ - here he delves deep into his own cosmos creating two cuts that are uniquely spacey whilst playful and powerful. DJ Seinfeld needs no introduction. His DJ Kicks mix and debut album for Ninja Tune have both been critically acclaimed. His ravey mix of 'Repeater' is a tension builder, his version simmers away for seven minutes patiently dropping metallic stabs and detroit fm synths licks. Manfredi’s career spans over two decades as agent, manager, promoter, label owner, dj and producer. His releases are few and far between so, it’s an honour for him to trust us with his art.

House of Disco is a label run by Magnier and is dedicated to unearthing joy for your neglected earlobes. Next up comes something a little different for HOD by Athlete Whippet with their ‘Talk About This Love EP’.
Athlete Whippet are renowned for cleverly fusing different musical influences into timeless contemporary jams. Spread across Berlin and London, they’ve become an integral part of both cities’ scenes with releases and remixes for Toy Tonics, Rhythm Section and Kitsuné Musique.  They co-run the artist collective and record label Squareglass - an established home for rising talent coming out of South London, with a roster that has included Seb Wildblood, Hidden Spheres, Jitwam, Glenn Astro & Will Saul.  Their releases have had reworks from Ross from Friends, Baltra and Max Graef, and following a lockdown season with shows on Balamii, Rinse FM, HÖR and Worldwide FM, the duo ended 2021 with European tour dates alongside Session Victim, Dan Shake, Paula Tape, and COEO.
On ‘Talk About This Love’ the London/Berlin duo draw you in with dreamy pads and submerged vocals and a quiet energy that holds you and you just don’t want to let go. Their second original ‘Dreams of Being Alone’ channels that same energy but with a touch more enthusiasm and joy. Skittering and splashy drum programming is offset by the playfulness of marimba-esque synths which plant your feet firmly in the sand of a lonely beach. 
Austrian maverick, Demuja takes ‘Dreams of Being Alone’ and whips you off that beach and onto the sweaty dancefloor adding a tougher four/four approach with punchy strings to get the floor swinging but keeping the marimba front and centre. London’s Aroop Roy steps in to tackle ‘Talk About This Love’ and as expected, this versatile producer has gone his own way adding.

‘Horizon’ is the first track to surface publicly from the project, a pop-electronic ballad with a positive message, the opening of the live show and the beginning of the story. Across its nine-minute duration
‘Horizon’ meanders through psychedelic, circling synth lines, elongated sub bass tones, intricately intertwined stab sequences, airy vocal chants and dubbed out chords which all ebb and flow around a sturdy rhythmic foundation.

@merahabiii gears up to release a brand new four-track record, 'Relax Into Yourself', landing on April 6 via Morning Raga Records. 'Midnight To Dawn' is the second single to land ahead of the record's release featuring vocalist @maria_uzor.

"The track is about finding escapism from everyday life whilst trying to be at one with yourself," says Mera Bhai. "Musically, the verses and choruses are a metaphor for control and release, whilst Maria's lyrics narrate the dreamlike and euphoric state of release throughout."

"The message feels especially universal at this point in time with so much chaos going on in the world running alongside hyper-capitalism and crazy global politics. It feels like everyone is looking for some kind of escape."

Surprise

"Your Friend" is a debut single and EP by Thanksmate, a duo from Naples being together for 11 years and founders of cult party Soul Express. Thanks to "It's a Pleasure" they have finally found space to give birth to a record son of a continuous research and constant work in night life. ‘Your Friend’ is a time travel that gathers and releases the whole essence of Thanksmate. From early 2000 cult vocals passing through "European" sounds made of essential dreamy synth drums. A full set of sound combinations that immediately refer to the rave scene. A tribute to a not-too-distant time that has rediscovered today its primordial charm, love for the track and passion for the bass drum.

All tracks Written and Produced by Fabio Agostini and Marco Palomba aka Thanksmate. 
Mixed by Raffaele "Whodamanny" Arcella. 
Recorded at Limewalk Studios, Napoli. 
Mastering by LOPAZZ.
