DGTL Records marks its fifth anniversary in style with ‘5YRS of DGTL Records’. The 14-track long player is released on April 16th as a 4x 12” vinyl set and drops digitally across 4 separate EP releases between February 18 and April 1, of which the first one features Mano Le Tough, Jimi Jules, Coloray and Tjade.
 
5YRS of DGTL Records is a perfect reflection of not just of the label itself but also its global event patron: headliners sitting equally alongside local talent and up-and-coming acts. Over the past five years, DGTL Records has grown into its own as a fully-fledged musical arm of the overall DGTL musical experience.

Mano Le Tough opens the release with the serene and heartfelt ‘Either 
Way’. He layers lighthearted guitar tabs, mesmerizing vocals and springy synths on each other to create a sublime affair that makes you reminisce and smile about the good things in life. Jimi Jules follows with ‘Anna Bolika’, a hypnotic and progressive track. It draws you in with constant chord progressions and mesmerizing sound 
design. Vocals are echoed cautiously to add to its ominous and eerie 
atmosphere. 

‘Polarity’ is Coloray's addition to the release. It features warm and granular synths, leaning towards the 8 bit retro synthwave sound, while rolling out a breakbeat drum pattern and heavy hitting kicks, with which he keeps the piece energetic and with a driving force throughout. Closing this first of four EP’s, Tjade presents ‘De Halve Maan’, a powerful tune for big rooms and big energy. Analogue synths, progressive bass lines and layers of melodic keys create a sense of revival and resurgence, with a hint of trance.

Ahead of @cook-strummer's ‘Berlin Gets Physical’, the artist serves up a fresh EP featuring three new cuts plus one - 'For Berlin' - which is taken from that much anticipated mix. 

Cook Strummer is maybe best known for his 'Rising' single on this label in 2020. It was followed up by some outstanding remixes in 2021 and now the superb new compilation ahead which sees Strummer dive deep in selecting a Berlin soundtrack for 2022. The original tracks here again showcase his mix of fresh rhythms, vocals and melodies with drum machines, guitars and synths which can take the form of anything from Berlin new wave to slow tech or deep tech. 

Opener 'Juste Passer' is a short but super sweet ambient piece with a heavy mood and soulful piano chords. They are elegant and poised but steeped in an all-consuming contemplation. The fantastic 'Let Go' then layers up nagging basslines with slowly percolating house drums. Up top are yearning, anguished vocals that are delivered in a emotive and beautiful style. It makes for a devastating emotional impact on a musical house groove. 'The Way You Feel' completes the EP with a funky bass guitar riff and slapping drums that get you on your toes. Here the vocal has a more playful and carefree feel to make for a brilliantly catchy tune. Last of all is 'For Berlin' which is taken from the forthcoming mix and pairs light, airy melodies with heavy and off-grid drums and hits. It has a DIY feel with retro 80s motifs and more rugged guitar lines that bring new wave influences next to the unique-sounding vocals. 

This is a top selection of very different tracks from Cook Strummer.

Ahead of the release of Cook Strummer's Berlin Gets Physical in September comes the first of two EPs from it. 

Berlin-based Cacao Records bosses and brotherly duo KEENE are behind the opening track. They are regulars on labels like Connected and have a deep and spiritual house sound. That is the case here with the dynamic drums and chunky bass of 'Ecoute' which comes with Afro vocals and loose, organic percussion. It's a fantastically atmospheric affair followed by a collaboration between two more Berlin based artists Los Cabra & Manuel Sahagun. 

They mix organic rhythms and electronic tension on labels like Bar 25 Music and Stil Vor Talent. Here, their 'Italian Groove' is a crisp tech house offering with snappy snares and tight drums. Once they have you locked in, a rugged bass synth signals take off while ever more lush and cosmic synths colour the airwaves. It's an expansive and high energy track to ignite any DJ set. 

This superb EP is a great taster of the full compilation to come.

Get Physical Music kicks off a new relationship with Greta Levska by signing up her first collaborative track with Trutopia. 

Lithuanian-born, London-raised Ibiza resident Greta Levska has a richly multicultural background that feeds into the music she makes and plays. She is someone who quickly rose up through the ranks on the White Isle this summer with energetic sets that cross a wide house and tech spectrum. Inspired by the likes of DMX Krew, Bugz In The Attic and Peggy Gou, Greta will follow up this first outing on Get Physical with more new music in 2023. 

'Lights Off' was made with Trutopia, two brothers from Swansea Wales who have been making underground moves on labels like Strictly Rhythm since 2015. It's an intense house cut with future-retro synths lashing about the mix over punchy drums. An echoing vocal swirls around the mix to bring the soul and after the atmospheric breakdown acid flashes up the ante and takes things to the next level. 

This is a fine first outing from Greta Levska with many more to come.

Phonk D is back on Exploited’s hallowed Black Jukebox series following the success of his #29 takeover earlier this year. You just can’t keep a good man down...

‘Let’s Shake’ leads the way with serious funk intent, mixing a thumping MJ-esque bassline with some of that late ‘70s / early ‘80s synth magic. Phasing guitar licks sidle up against spunky horn swells and sassy vocal blasts. It’s a track that has ‘party-starter’ written all over it.

‘Reality Dance’ is a chuggier beast, building slowly through looping guitar-and-bass plucks until a feel-good melody emerges. This low-slung, low-tempo groove is in no hurry to lay out its funky machinations, making for a perfect early-evening floor-filler as cocktail glasses clink and glitterballs bling.

‘Players Anthem’ chunks things up with conga-inflected groove and an arpeggiated bassline throb underpinning swooning female vocal harmonies. It rocks a simple arrangement that lets the groove do the talking, with sustained string notes adding an element of tension at the requisite moments.

‘No Limits’ sees Phonk D team up with old sparring partner Sascha Ciminiera for another hot collab. The bouncing off-beat groove pumps pleasingly in classic disco fashion, with a joyous mood built through Rhodesy chords and a scintillating synth line. Swelling horns are buried deep in the mix in the second half to help propel the track higher.
