Made By Pete joins forces with Mexican trio Secret Echoes on ‘In My Head’ to celebrate the launch of his new label Life In Colour.

“The colour in our lives comes from our experiences. Sometimes happy and joyful, sometimes sad or challenging. It’s the variety that keeps things interesting and challenges us to develop our own stories. Making music or any type of art is an expression of ourselves in that moment, we never quite know what is going to come out at any given time. Life In Colour is about celebrating this creative chaos and embracing it.” MBP

‘In My Head’ sees Made By Pete collaborate with live act Secret Echoes. Both artists picked up coveted ‘Essential New Tunes’ from Pete Tong on BBC Radio 1 in 2024 and their collaboration is a great example of two styles combining to create something unexpected and fresh.

After his Realife EP in 2023, Yost Koen returns with Untold Stories — a three-track escape made for golden hours and late-night drives. “Stupid Things” opens the EP like a trusted friend - heartfelt, honest and made to stick with you. The vocals guide you through every twist of your summer adventure, straight to the heart. "West You" captures that electric feeling just before summer hits — the sky opens up, plans unfold and everything feels possible. "Untold Stories" closes it out with those signature soft, floating vocals that wrap around you like a breeze, carrying you through sunsets, memories and everything in between.

FTTF 44 opens with "The Groover" by Doriann & Wave Wave - tight, punchy and straight to the point. The vocal cuts ride a deep, rolling bassline that instantly locks you in. Kiko & Olivier Giacomotto's "Bounce" keeps things moving with a chunky groove and bright stabs, giving it that classic, floor-focused tension. Roman Kyn's "Offset" dips things into deeper waters - warm bass, floating synths and a stripped-back vibe that stretches time a little. Willis closes it out with "Lifeline," a darker, cheeky cut with attitude in the low-end and just enough emotion to leave a mark. Raw, moody and built for the dancefloor -  this EP doesn't waste a second

After a string of acclaimed releases on Diynamic, Johannes Brecht returns with his latest offering: "♡☮EP" – a two-track exploration of emotion, groove, and sonic detail.
Opening with "Dreamin'", Brecht delivers a deep, melancholic journey that floats between melodic-house and deep-house. Lush synth textures and introspective tones create a dreamlike atmosphere.
"Not My Feelin'", is shifting the mood with a driving tech-house groove combined with a laid-back male vocal.
It's rhythmically sharp, emotionally restrained, yet undeniably hypnotic – the kind of track that turns heads without raising its voice.

ICONYC continues its curatorial stride with Unfold, a four-track offering from Cologne-based trio Diode Eins. Including a collaboration with the inimitable Paul Brenning, Unfold tears down walls in favor of raw expression in a state-of-the-art EP that finds Julien Hecker, Jerome Tiaden, and Jannis Klimpel presenting a studied yet emotive exploration of post-club aesthetics, balancing rhythmic heft with experimental nuance.

Biding their time, Diode Eins & Paul Brenning welcome us into "What We Shared" with a boisterous introduction as heavy-handed drumming and winding gears stomp across barren grounds. With tension now settling in, a strobbing low-end pulse takes over, thrusting us down a cavernous spiral as Brenning's stunning vocals cascade around us, lingering in the darkness of our past. Now, tightly wrapped in its allure, we fall deeper inside "What We Shared", offsetting a chain reaction that sees the piece reconfigure itself through a corrosive chemical process for a harrowing contrast in an avant-garde centerpiece.

For our second act, Diode Eins keeps us at the edge of our seats with the ever-shifting "Ain't You". Complex and defiant from the first bar, this creation builds on scattered pieces and left-fielded machinery. Solidifying an intricate framework, the Cologne-based outfit proceeds to deploy a myriad of tantalizing passageways where elements come in and out of frame for a surreal experience. From sultry vocal ad-libs, to angelical swells, and on to razor-sharp alarms and gated pianos, "Ain't You" challenges the finges of club music in a heady and narcotic take on the future. 

This assertive performance continues with "Tambor", where raw energy takes the wheel. Portuguese vocal lines cut through an asymmetrical drum pattern, and a snarling bassline injects urgency into the mix. There's a tension between the human and the machine here, a sense of conflict that plays out across jagged rhythms and looping refrains. In its protest-like momentum, Tambor channels the spirit of resistance via club architecture.

Completing our cinematic dystopian exploration, Diode Eins presents us with the skitterish "Breaking Veils". Delicate, yet granitic, this final cut evokes black holes washing over us as it unfurls over broken shards. Meanwhile, iridescent atmospheres sway and move in mysterious ways before dissipating into the ether as gated vocals step under the limelight. Deeper in our trance, sharp guitar lines draw otherworldly figures in the air, while entropy runs its course, providing a magnificent finale for a record that defies notions with every chord.
