Solid Grooves Records co-founder Michael Bibi partners alongside KinAhau for 'Different Side', featuring genre-spanning electronic duo Audio Bullys. 

Needing little introduction for both track and artists involved, Solid Grooves opens 2023 with one of the most highly anticipated ID requests from founder Michael Bibi's sets across the past 18 months. An instantly recognisable production which has soundtracked nights at The Grooves Motel at DC-10 through to ELOVATE events across the globe in London, New York, Buenos Aires and Tulum, early March finally sees the release of 'Different Sides' as Bibi partners with emerging Mexican DJ/producer and Solid Grooves artist Kinahau for the impactful 'Different Side' - featuring UK dance mainstays Audio Bullys.

Harnessing iconic vocal from Audio Bullys' 2003 single 'We Don't Care', Bibi and Kinahau transport things into a new realm across 'Different Sides', employing skippy drums, icy hats and a menacing bassline - coupled with a few signature percussion fills - for a peak-time anthem loaded with energy.

Solid Grooves Records co-founder PAWSA is back with 'Dog Days', his first material on the label for 2023.

Every time Solid Grooves Records co-founder PAWSA steps out on the label, it's an event that turns heads and brings global attention for a good reason. After returning alongside his partner-in-crime Michael Bibi for a very special Ibiza closing party, with both manning the decks at a jam-packed DC10 garden, he steps out on the main label for the first time this year, following the release of 2022's iconic 'Room Service (24 Hour Mix), and drops another certified anthem with 'Dog Days'.

Skippy and slick, with those signature touches and hooky vocal samples that give his productions that unmistakable groove, 'Dog Days' is another track you're going to be hearing a lot of following its release as the London favourite continues to prove exactly why he's one of the best in the game.

Delivering house-impact house music in his signature style for over a decade, Sidney Charles has mastered the craft of creating impactful productions that stand the test of time. And yet, the German favourite continues to evolve and build his sound - both in the studio with material released via a long-list of leading imprints and within his dynamic DJ sets across renowned institutions across the globe. Following appearances for the collective in Ibiza, the Hamburg-born talent now steps up with his first music on Solid Grooves as he reveals his latest single, 'No Way Out'.

Skippy, loaded with energy, and steeped in UK and US garage influences, the driving 'No Way Out' is a lively cut balancing soulful touches with heavy-hitting elements. Raw yet refined, it's got one of those grooves that's impossible not to move to.

SGR087 - Sidney Charles - No Way Out

Lady, pick it up it’s me calling
Let me, show ‘em all ‘bout the west
Homie, give it up if you ballin'
Homie, give it up for yourself  

Hey little mama with that tight dress on
I got a small proposition for you (ah, ah, ah, ah)
You look kinda sexy, got it going on
Here's what I want you to do
(Here's what I want you to do)
Come a little closer, let me see that thong
Let me slide this number to you (ah, ah, ah)
You can catch me in them streets with my blue khakis on
In my Chuck Taylors smoking blunts with my crew
(Gangsta walk)

Lady, pick it up it’s me calling
Let me, show ‘em all ‘bout the west
Homie, give it up if you ballin'
Homie, give it up for yourself  

Hi baby
Are you there?
Yeah I’m here
No you didn’t wake me up
Don’t worry I was up
I’m really sleepy though
I was up all night, thanks to you
Yeah, I miss you so much

It’s 6 in the morning, we still going strong
And we, ran out of weed at about two (oh no)
Must be the music, got these gangstas gone
(Must be the music)
I'm tryna play this funk down on you

Homie give it up if you ballin'
Homie give it up for yourself
Lady, pick it up it’s me calling
Let me, show ‘em all ‘bout the west   
(Hey, hey)

Lady, pick it up it’s me calling
Let me, show ‘em all ‘bout the west
Homie, give it up if you ballin'
Homie, give it up for yourself

Surging through the ranks of the house music scene, Mason Maynard has swiftly become a staple on lineups across the globe, from the iconic Club Space (Miami) to Mediahaven (Amsterdam) and The Warehouse Project (Manchester), sharing the stage with industry heavyweights like Joseph Capriati, Loco Dice, Hot Since 82 and many more. His continuous presence on BBC Radio 1 and sought-after summer residencies underline his influence, complemented by a growing repertoire of successful releases on renowned labels like Cuttin’ Headz, Saved, Kaluki, Sola, and his own Xscape imprint. Already announced to join label boss Jamie Jones this summer in Ibiza for Paradise at Amnesia, the UK talent first serves up a stunning three-tracker ‘XTC’ featuring a collab with HoneyLuv, plus a huge remix from Hot Creations’ leading man who steps out on home turf for the first time this year showcasing his trademark head-bopping groove. 

“This is a special release for me as it’s my third offering on Hot Creations so to also have a remix from Jamie makes it full circle. It’s cool to hear how my music has developed over the 3 releases. ‘XTC’ came from a studio session in London with HoneyLuv and what came from it was this fun and energetic track. ‘Fly Away’ however, is a hypnotic tale which has been a tool in my sets for a little while now.” - Mason Maynard 

Title track ‘XTC’ finds Maynard and HoneyLuv team up for a confident club groover with menacing vocal hooks and playful rhythms, infusing a retro essence into the track. Next, Jones crafts an exemplary, underground dubby take on the track, intertwining layered effects and hypnotic atmospherics for the ultimate dancefloor weapon. To close, ‘Fly Away’ is another twisted offering that comes with Maynard’s distinct blend of depth, melody and groove carefully designed with a futuristic feel.

If debuts are anything to go by, the return Across Boundaries on Up The Stuss is a guaranteed treat. A collaborative project born out of mutual passion and understanding between two close friends, Chris Stussy and Locklead’s joint guise has taken the house landscape by storm, and the pair are only one release into their exciting journey. Merging signature sonics with future-focused ideas, the project takes cues from its name and sees the pair bridge genres and influences to deliver a raw and impactful take on house music - something on show here with their sophomore offering, ‘Synergy’.

Created to showcase a deeper side to their diverse sound palettes and a project for the duo to express themselves differently to their own solo sets and productions, the latest five-track EP contains a kaleidoscope of sounds and textures to soundtrack moments from sunrise to sunset and beyond.

Another essential pick-up to tick off your want list.

Pumpin'

Whoa, babe
Oh-oh
Well, well, well, well, well
Oh, hmm

Someone to count on, in a world ever changin’
Here I am, stop where you’re standin’
What you need is a lover
A man to take over
Oh girl, don't look any further

Strange when you think of the chances
That we’d both be in a state of mind
Too cool to be careless
Looking for the right thing
Oh baby, don't look any further

Tonight we're gonna taste a little paradise
Rock me all night long
Daylight, 
I'll still be looking in your ebony eyes
And we'll go on and on and on

Someone to count on (Mmm-hmm...)
What you need is a lover 
To love you all over 
Oh baby, don't you look any further, further (oh)

Ohh, don’t ya, don’t ya, don’t ya, don’t ya
Don't you look any further

Tonight we're gonna taste a little paradise
Won't you rock me all night long
Daylight, I'll still be looking in your ebony eyes
And we'll go on and on and on and on

On and on and on and on

Day-o umba day-o, mombajee ai-o

Someone to count on (Mmm-hmm...)
What you need is a lover 
To love you all over 
Oh baby, don't you look any further, further

Jungle - All Of The Time (Chris Stussy Edit)

Balancing his jazz-influenced house explorations with a wealth of material aimed squarely at the floor, Italian DJ/producer Blackchild has been on a hot streak of late, with a series of impactful productions making serious global noise while also curating his growing label and event series NAIMA in unison. Fresh from his high-profile remix of house icon St. Germain, the Solid Grooves regular returns to his adopted label with arguably his biggest record to date, finally unveiling the heavily-requested and eagerly-awaited release of 'So Good (Heat Mix).

From the infectious sax melodies that have been hypnotising dancers around the globe to the slick, silky drums and the track's bumping low-ends, 'So Good (Heat Mix)' is a dopamine-drenched anthem that looks set to command dancefloors all summer long as Blackchild and Solid Grooves show out to serve up the goods once more.
