PREMIERE: Zuke - How We Met

New Zealand artist @HarryCharles unveils ‘Visions Of Red’, his debut single for Loop Electronic, the newly launched sub-label of Loop Recordings Aot(ear)oa. Taken from his forthcoming sophomore album MOVEMENT, the track is a richly textured blend of downtempo and organic house, showcasing Harry’s continued exploration of emotive, groove-centric beats and his growth as a producer and live performer.

MOVEMENT, set for release in May 2025, marks Harry’s first full-length album since returning to Aotearoa after years of artistic growth in Berlin. Known for his seamless fusion of live guitar, soulful vocals, and electronic production, Harry's work on this album reflects his deep connection to both his roots and the transformative journey he's experienced abroad.

“The more I grow as an artist, the more I want to evolve into something new. There's a lot that's familiar about this song to me, and there's a fresh feel to it as well - a sign of evolution and a deeper dive into the heart and sound of a dance floor groove,” Harry shares.

Inspired by countless festival dancefloors across Australasia and Europe, 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang' is a high-energy DJ weapon that blends the spirit of disco with the edge of alternative house and techno.

Taken from the forthcoming Loose Change EP, Sanoi begins the year with a collaborative bang, teaming up with fellow DJ/producer @boznich13 for "Chill Bill".

"'Chill Bill' was created over a couple of days with Boznich," says Sanoi. "Our idea was to write something that doesn’t lean into the big dramatic buildups and drops dominating dancefloors today. Instead, we aimed for something that carries a certain ‘cool’ while still driving hard and full of energy."

‘We Belong’ is the brand new waiata created especially for Te Matatini o Te Kāhui Maunga 2025. Commissioned by Te Matatini, the official song has been created by Corrella and L.A.B, a song which emphasises the collective strength and spiritual unity represented by the event and the host iwi. 

The biennial Te Matatini national kapa haka festival is the largest celebration of Māori performing arts excellence in the world. ‘We Belong’ will serve as the soundtrack to this installment of Te Matatini.

The waiata is a collaboration between two of New Zealand’s most popular acts, Corrella and L.A.B. Featuring vocals led by Joel Shadbolt (L.A.B) and Pipiwharauroa & Ngawaiwera Campbell (Corrella), the waiata embraces the feeling of unity and togetherness which Te Matatini brings, with the track being started in Te Whanganui-a-Tara / Wellington, before being completed in Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland.

This new imagining of ‘Heart of Glass’ is a fusion of pulsating reggae beats with Blondie’s classic vocals, creating a fresh and vibrant take on a song that defined a generation. The track combines the unmistakable vocals from the iconic Debbie Harry with a group of musicians from the vibrant musical metropolis of Kingston, Jamaica. Captured by a band who have played with the likes of Ziggy Marley, Peter Tosh, Sly & Robbie, Wyclef Jean and many more, this version of ‘Heart Of Glass’ gives the classic a new sunshine-soaked feeling.

“‘B.' takes on a slightly thunderous feel, echoing the sound that initially inspired me to create electronic music. It’s a nod to the moody, downtempo vibes I fell in love with during my time in Berlin, hence the name." - Harry Charles. 

@HarryCharles returns in 2025 with the moody downtempo single ‘B’, from his forthcoming album, MOVEMENT. Set for release in March 2025, MOVEMENT captures the multifaceted nature of Harry Charles' artistic journey. Drawing on years of experience as a guitarist, songwriter, and producer, the album weaves together diverse influences and showcases the evolution of his sound since returning to New Zealand from Berlin. With ‘B’", listeners are invited to continue the immersive journey toward one of the year’s most anticipated electronic albums.

https://ffm.to/blessing-remix

Acclaimed drum & bass duo @Talimusic & Chiccoreli (@liquidlowdown) deliver a fresh remix of ‘Blessing’. The new version maintains the festival-ready vocals from Sianne, while taking the drum & bass sound down the liquid route.

Lush strings and warm piano chords set the mood from the outset, with Sianne’s vocals front and center. As the track builds, it drops into a heavy-hitting blend of punchy drums and gritty bass - retaining its dancefloor energy while adding emotional depth.

As two of Aotearoa’s leading drum & bass artists, MC Tali & DJ Chiccoreli bring years of experience to this release. Their chemistry as both performers and producers has seen them grace stages at major festivals around the globe. While both have a strong catalogue of solo releases, ‘Blessing’ marks their first studio collaboration, with more music on the horizon that continues to explore their rich, signature sound.

 ‘As I Lay Me Down (When the Sun Comes Out Again)’ - a sun-soaked reggae reimagining of Sophie B. Hawkins’ 1995 classic. The track is the latest single from Classic Hits In A Reggae Groove, a bold project pairing iconic vocalists with Jamaica’s finest musicians to breathe new life into legendary songs with an authentic reggae feel.

Hawkins re-recorded her vocals for the track, delivering a modern yet performance that perfectly complements the laid-back groove, skanking guitars, and soaring horns of the all-star reggae band. “I love this version of ‘As I Lay Me Down’ — it fits my mood, my joy of being alive on our planet at this time,” says Hawkins. “What the band do with my music makes me smile, and I’m so happy to share it with you.”

Recorded in Jamaica with full artist involvement, the album features reggae royalty — musicians who’ve performed with the likes of Ziggy Marley, Peter Tosh, and Wyclef Jean. Classic Hits In A Reggae Groove delivers timeless classics with a warm, rootsy twist that feels both fresh and deeply grounded in tradition.

Classic Hits In A Reggae Groove presents the latest release from their upcoming album, a new imagining of Tanita Tikaram’s iconic track ‘Twist In My Sobriety’. Kingston Sound System have taken a re-recorded vocal from Tikaram and created a soulful reggae version of the classic.

A collection of Jamaica’s finest musicians, Kingston Sound System have taken the synth-driven original, and given it a new sun-soaked interpretation. The synths are replaced by horns and keys combining, with Tikaram’s breathy vocals perfectly complimenting the laid-back reggae instrumentation. A modern brooding vocal take from Tikaram lends new life to the recording, working hand in hand with a slower reggae tempo to the original.

"Kingston Sound System have fun bringing their reggae vibes to classic tracks by artists including Blondie, and The B-52’s. Now they’ve got their hands on ‘Twist’, I can’t wait for people to check it out!” - Tanita Tikaram

New Zealand producer @HarryCharles follows up his sophomore album MOVEMENT with the new track 'The Luck', which marks a shift towards a more energetic and uplifting direction.

‘The Luck’ blends hook-laden melodies and bright synth layers with a driving deep house groove. It’s a clear evolution from the downtempo, organic moods of MOVEMENT, and signals a bold new chapter for Harry’s sound.

Blending deep, chugging Afro house rhythms with the grit of old-school soul, ‘Try It’ layers hypnotic percussion and a rolling low-end beneath pitched-up, boom-bap-inspired vocal samples. The result is a striking balance of crate-digging nostalgia and modern dancefloor energy, music designed to move bodies while sparking recognition in heads who know.

Due for release in late 2025, Augenblick is a 19-track journey through ambient textures and lo-fi beats.

Wellington-based producer Zuke returns with a new rework from his acclaimed debut album Come Closer (Dec 2024), a fresh take on the album’s downtempo gem ‘How We Met’, remixed alongside long-time collaborator Dylan C.

Where the original drifted with haunting Rhodes chords and a deep, meditative atmosphere, the Dylan C & Zuke Remix drives the track towards the dancefloor. Lifting the tempo, the duo reshape it into a hypnotic organic house groover, with inspired elements of acid house & dub echoes.

This marks the first official release for Dylan C & Zuke , a pairing well-known for their hybrid live/DJ performances across New Zealand festivals and club shows over the past six years. The remix captures the essence of those sets: deep, melodic, and immersive, yet always underpinned by energy and movement.
