As you know, at Ocultismo we take a different approach than other labels. We are driven by a thirst for the new and are constantly seeking it. In our quest, we encountered an as yet undiscovered musician from Basel, and we are proud to unveil his very first EP. With his soulful and profound EP Telepathy Tapes, EZRA has created something timeless and wondrous — a work that fits seamlessly into our roster and resonates deeply with our identity. We are very excited to present this EP to you, completed with a remix by label boss Shiffer. Our heartfelt thanks also go to Kathrin Anka, who brought this release to life with her cover art and animations — adding her own touch of beauty to the whole.

DJ Pierre, Eddie Amador & Kathy Brown Return with Two New Versions of ‘House Music Always’.

Get Physical Music presents a brand-new two-track package of ‘House Music Always’, delivering fresh mixes that highlight the timeless synergy between DJ Pierre, Eddie Amador, and Kathy Brown. Following the earlier remix edition, this new release dives even deeper into the roots of classic house while offering two distinct interpretations built for today’s floors.

The ‘Original Mix’ opens with a classic piano-house riff, immediately setting an uplifting tone in true old-school fashion. Eddie Amador’s iconic acapella “Not everyone understands house music…”, sits at the center, guiding the track with its unmistakable presence. As the groove unfolds, warm organ lines and steady drums build toward Kathy Brown’s powerful gospel-infused vocals, creating a soulful, vibrant celebration of pure house heritage. This version honors everything foundational about the genre: piano, groove, voice, and spirit.

The ‘Sound Factory Mix’ shifts into a deeper, hypnotic territory. Driven by a more repetitive and dubby structure, it channels the energy of late-night floor endurance. Eddie’s spoken-word lines return in a more shadowy, loop-led form, while Kathy Brown’s vocals drift through the mix like a distant call. With its stripped-down pulse and rolling rhythms, this version offers a raw, club-focused take, perfect for DJs who want tension, momentum, and a timeless house atmosphere.

Together, the two mixes showcase the enduring chemistry of three legends. DJ Pierre, a founding figure of Chicago house, continues to push the genre forward with authenticity and innovation. Eddie Amador brings his unmistakable vocal presence, bridging decades of house wisdom. Kathy Brown, one of dance music’s most iconic voices, elevates the release with the power, emotion, and soul that only she can deliver.

‘House Music Always’ remains a statement of what the genre stands for: groove, unity, and a sound that never fades. These new versions reaffirm that message with style and class, ready for both classic house lovers and the next generation of dancers.

French producer Darlyn Vlys makes a striking return to Pets Recordings, following up his 2023 single 'Surrender' with a new two-track release... this time, in search of 'Salvation.'

The EP captures Vlys’ sharp sense for atmosphere and groove, balancing emotion with precision. Title track 'Salvation' channels a robotic electro pulse, its dark synths and throbbing basslines surging with controlled intensity... a dancefloor current designed to spark movement and tension in equal measure.

On the flip, 'Dominion' takes command with marching rhythms, growling low-end, and sharp percussive detail, cementing Vlys’ ability to merge human instinct with machine soul.

"I Need Nobody" by Gianet is included in "Reasons 04: Part III" VA compilation on Urged To Dance.
A raw burst of independence, inspired by sleepless nights in the studio and channeling the euphoria of a producer lost in sound, an aggressive, arpeggiated ride with experimental textures and a housy edge, imagining the dancefloor, feeling the goosebumps, and needing nothing but the music itself.

TOTAL 25… Another anniversary in a year that is already rich in anniversaries. For the 25th time, the Kompakt family is gathering for its annual rendezvous. Prick up your ears, here we go!

The latest boy band in town, POP VAMPIRES COLOGNE, opens the party with the enigmatic ‘Karianne’. SUPERPITCHER knows how to make a grand appearance, accompanied by high-calibre guests. His electro-pop treat ‘Pandora’s Box’ features Hot Chip’s ALEXIS TAYLOR​ on vocals.​ JÜRGEN PAAPE isn’t coming alone either, but with newcomer HELLA in tow. ‘Grace (A Tale)‘ once again shows our resident hit maker at his best. JÖRG BURGER also has a table companion, the extremely talented Irene Kalisvaart, and remixes himself on top of that. REINHARD VOIGT points out that money never sleeps and proceeds according to the motto: ’​Zahl an einem anderen Tag (Pay another day​)’. Our Brazilian whirlwind GUI BORATTO returns after a long absence with the banger ‘Panorama X-Press’. After careful consideration, ROBAG WRUHME has named his new track ‘Starsow Total’ and sings in the chorus with his family for the first time. WASSERMANN contributes an ultra-fat remix of Mayer’s ‘Brainwave Technology’, while MICHAEL MAYER himself marvels at the rare ‘Erdbeermond’. HARDT ANTOINE’s ‘Let Me Go’ really gets the party going again before WASSERMANN orders a large taxi and skips out on the bill.

See you again next year!
