🌌 C'mon Boy [Bandcamp]

Dam Swindle’s new ‘Backyard Galaxy’ EP is an ode to house music and the classic Swindle sound. 

It’s only been a few months since Dam Swindle released their highly acclaimed album “Open” and already the boys are back on Heist with a new release that takes you right back to the dancefloor. Where they’ve spent the better part of the last 3 years writing their album with all its sonic explorations and collabs, this new EP sees the duo return to their roots of club-ready house music. The ‘Backyard Galaxy’ EP comes with 4 high-energy house tracks made in their Amsterdam studio that have been road-tested all summer.

EP opener “Feel it much?” has all the ingredients of a classic Swindle heater, with warm pads, rich organic percussion and tons of soul. There’s a simple and effective vocal running throughout the track that blends nicely with the classic house elements and electronic textures that are layered throughout the track. There’s an effortless flow to this track and it comes as no surprise that it has been a highlight in their sets this summer. 

The EP title track ‘Backyard Galaxy’ is an up-tempo Latin-themed jam with a hint of old school techno.  The synth stabs hit you just right and the modulated vocal chops are a lovely boost for the build ups and add a touch of swing to a track that already has a tight  groove. Add to that a huge breakdown and drum roll and you’ve got yourself a track that’ll light up any dancefloor.

On the flip, we’re moving into garage territory with the shuffling vibes of ‘Rhythm Baby’. The current popularity of the genre is not missed on Dam Swindle, but when you look closely, you’ll see this track is full of elements that the duo have built their legacy on. The vocal chops, transposed key samples and swing are all on point and work just as well below, as above 130 bpm if speed is your thing.

The EP closes with the NY-style house cut ‘What you give’, which reminds us of Dam Swindle’s remix of Cinthie’s Heist hit ‘Won’t U take me’ with its lush organs and moody keys. It’s perhaps the most classic house track they’ve made in a long time and you can hear they had a great time recording this. It’s playful, vibey and catchy. Just the way we like it.  

Dam Swindle might have delivered one of the standout cross-over albums of 2025, but on this EP the message is clear: Once a househead, always a househead.

As always, enjoy the music and play it loud! 

Much love,

Feel it much?

Mike Sandcastle steps up for the eighth instalment on the Jolene Records imprint this October, comprising four original cuts from the UK artist.

Blackpool-born house producer Mike Sandcastle is fast emerging as one of the UK’s most distinctive new electronic voices, blending raw club energy with an intricately sampled, filter house aesthetic. Rooted in the vibrant sounds of classic house yet unafraid to experiment with modern techniques, Sandcastle channels the spirit of the underground into tracks that feel both timeless and forward-thinking and have found a home on the likes of Midnight Riot, The Discography Lessons, SHEE's Secret Society and of course Jolene where he returns here.

Leading the release is ‘Party With Me’, a five-minute excursion through disco licks, emotive vocals, choppy sample work and sweeping filters, intertwined with a bouncy bass groove and skippy rhythm section. ‘Love Takes Two’ follows next and fuses phased out sweeping synth lines and soaring vocals with plucked bass notes and a saturated drum groove.

‘When I’m With You’ opens the B-side and dives headfirst into choppy sample work as perfectly looped guitars, pitched vocal chants and driving low end intertwine with crisp percussion. ‘Whistle’ then concludes the EP on a deeper tip, laying focus on organic drum sounds, a snaking bass line, cinematic strings, jazzy melodies and a breathy spoken word vocal.

A new pulse from Athens — BROTEIN returns with “Rhythm of Paradise,” a radiant journey through rhythm, emotion, and groove.

The Greek duo blends analog warmth with modern club energy, weaving deep basslines, lush pad synths, and classic piano riffs into a timeless house flow. Capturing the soul of Mediterranean nightlife, the track celebrates rhythm as our common language — the heartbeat of every paradise we seek.

To possess less is to perceive more. The silence between possessions becomes a field of expansion where thought breathes and perception is honed. Through the geometry of words and the depth of wisdom, the universe is rewritten, not in things, but in understanding.

Deeppa Record is turning five with a superb two-part compilation, and this second half dives into deeper waters than the first. It comes from a mix of both longtime contributors and contemporary artists whose evolving sounds inspire the label's direction today. Lars Behrenroth remix kick off with a tender and vulnerable deep house sound and Christophe Salin's gets more physical but no less gooey with its lush pads and rubbery kicks. Elsewhere, Thierry Tomas layers up lush r&b vocals and warming synth hues, Darryl Baalki brings jazzy expression to his fulsome house grooves and Eloi's 'Take Your Time' is a dusty closer laced up with lovely pianos. This is house for mature dance floors.
