As ever with the Hell Yeah crew, there is an interesting back-story to the label’s next release, the ambitiously titled Coast to Coast EP. Firstly, the title refers to the fact that Justin VanDerVolgen hails from the east and Doc Martin the west coast of America, but that’s not all…

The label boss first heard Alexander Robotnick’s Undicidisco*track in a set by Golf Channel associate *Justin Vandervolgen. He went to ask what it was and turns out the track had only been released digitally. Keen to give it the full release it deserved on wax, he fully licensed it and got a remix from the man who first played it, as presented here. So far it’s done well, with Running Back boss Gerd Janson playing it recently at P-Bar – of, course it went down a storm... and Beats In Space's Tim Sweeney shouting "This is the Jam"... wow

The track itself is seven minutes of playfully droning bass synths and boom-bap percussion. It’s alive with darting synth tweaks and twitches and races through outer space at an inviting pace, radiating good time vibes from start to finish.

It’s a similar story with the flip – Hell Yeah’s Marco heard one of his (and dance music in general) heroes, Doc Martin, playing the Florian Meindl's bass driven original mix and immediately wanted to give it a full release, but not before asking Doc for a remix.

That remix is released here and is a heavyweight, shuffling bit of house funk with a tight, knotted and tumbling bass refrain propping up soaring diva vocals and grainy, infectious claps. It’s a wavy and hugely inviting groove that has plenty of lip-curling attitude to it.

A fine release with a great backstory that comes complete with great vinyl artwork designed by Andrea Amaducci, this Coast to Coast EP is yet another fine weapon in the Hell Yeah cannon.

London artist, producer, DJ, label head and leader of a new generation of high-speed ravers, SHERELLE announces her eagerly-awaited debut EP, 160 Down The A406. Known for her work as a pioneering, high-octane DJ, the EP is the first time SHERELLE has officially released her own productions. 

The EP title track “160 Down The A406" is today available to stream and download. Fusing Sherelle’s love of high speed sounds with a weaving melody,  the song is a left turn from an artist known for high intensity sets, finding subtlety within speed, and the sound of one of modern dance music’s brightest mind’s subverting expectations.

SHERELLE kicked off 2021 with a New Balance campaign and a hotly anticipated set for Fabric with Hooversound artist Tim Reaper. Her residency on BBC Radio 1 has seen her champion cutting-edge dance music to a mainstream audience, whilst her Essential Mix was named the station’s best of the year in 2020; whilst Hooversound - the label she runs with longtime friend Apple Music Presenter Naina - has carved out a reputation for the freshest outputs of UK club culture through releases featuring Special Request, Tim Reaper, Hyroglifics, Sinistarr and Deft. 

The 160 Down The A406 announcement follows Sherelle’s news of the creation of BEAUTIFUL, a space for black and LGBTQI+ artists to give their music a home.

If 2020 was a break-out year for Sherelle, seeing her win countless awards and grow respect amongst her peers, 2021 is the year of her truly establishing herself as a new age icon in UK dance music and beyond.

Exclusive: HDSN - For My People

Paying tribute to his musical roots doesn't quite hit the nail on its head as Michael Bihler, better known under his artist moniker HDSN, seemingly works House Music's history and the story of its pioneers skill- and carefully into his four track comprising EP For My People – the 12th release on his label Nuthing But A Soul Thing. Without any doubt the opening and at the same time the EP's eponymous track For My People captures the vibe of early House days due to its intriguing deep chords in combination with a memorable piano-chord array that characterize the track's backbone. The track's message, the repetition of the spoken words, underlines of not to say highlights the initially mentioned tribute paying or homage to House Music's founding artists. Besides its groovey-character For My People peaks in a break that does away with clichés as it does not stimulate the (urgent) necessity of a predictable drop but holds in before an Acid-line is added to the track – unexpectedly yet magnificently remind one even more of the past without sounding like it. An instant classic.

HDSN's For My People EP was released on Nuthin But A Soul Thing on May 21st, 2021.

Chilean producer Massiande returns with another record on Phonica’s family of labels, with his new ‘Through The Walls’ EP landing on the deep house focused Karakul imprint this time round. 

Since his well-received ‘Freedom EP’ on Phonica White, Massiande has had a string of strong releases on Freerange, No Fuss and Midnight Riot, adding to an already formidable back-catalogue including 12”s for Housewax and M>O>S. 

‘Through The Walls’ may be his most accomplished project to date, with the level of production at a particular high, ranging from the crisp, punchy title track to the submerged dub techno of ‘Dub At The Beach’ and on to the melodic beauty of ‘I Remember When I First Met You’. He rounds the 12” off with ‘New Life’, another new classic sounding like a rediscovered anthem from yesteryear. We can see this 12” lingering in record bags for quite some time!

Sandboards drop their 'Nights Over Taieri' EP this week on Rinse. We've got the premiere of the title track below.

The Kiwi duo have been building huge momentum with releases on Feel My Bicep and Cold Tonic as well as working with Krystal Klear.

On their latest track, 'Nights Over Taieri', Sandboards deliver a massive piano driven cut of euphoric Italo house.

Speaking about it, the duo told DJ Mag, “Over the past couple of years we’ve kept a few tracks back to play exclusively at our shows, and they’ve always had an amazing reaction, so it’s really great to be able to release these with Rinse all together.”

Listen to the DJ Mag premiere of Sandboards’ 'Nights Over Taieri' above.

On his forthcoming debut album 'It's A Business Doing Pleasure With You', Panthera Krause exhibits his expertise and versatility as a songwriter and producer, without ever showing off, but always inviting the listener and dancer into his very own space of lighthearted and wryly, yet passionately grooving understanding of electronic music.
The album ultimately constitutes his signature sound, it is the epitome of Krause-ness. A cliché-free and self determined approach to production and musicianship. Today we bring you a first glorious taster in the form of NuDisco smasher 'Birthday Club'. A record that is set to take, what remains of, our summer by storm.
"It's A Business Doing Pleasure With You" is released November 15th 2019.
