The ever-reliable FCL aka Belgian house heroes San Soda and Red D are back on the block with this remastered remix package of ‘Can We Try’.

It’s a soul-drenched dancefloor meditation that taps into the timeless tension of love and longing.  With its raw vocal hooks (courtesy of Lady Linn), analog warmth, and stripped-down groove, the original cut is pure FCL: emotionally rich, effortlessly deep, and aimed straight at discerning dance floors.

Bringing fresh heat to the 2014 original, three heavyweights of house and techno step in for remix duties—each reworking the track in their own signature style. First up, Jimpster injects his trademark deep, jazzy finesse, flipping ‘Can We Try’ into a swirling, soulful roller—lush pads, Moog flourishes, and enough swing to keep bodies moving and hearts locked in.

Ben Hixon, the Dallas-based underground wizard, lays down a chunky, hardware-heavy rework full of crunchy drums and woozy funk.  It's lo-fi soul with hi-fi intent. Deetron closes it out with a peak-time bomb—big room pressure, hypnotic bass, intense stabs and the kind of tension-release dynamics that only a true craftsman can deliver.

‘Can We Try’ is a reminder that dance music doesn’t’t need to shout to speak volumes. With this return, FCL prove that their music can truly stand the test of time, sounding as fresh today as when it first dropped over a decade ago.  Lovingly remastered by the man with the golden ears Atjazz!

PREMIERE: FCL - Can We Try Ft. Lady Linn [Jimpster Remix]

Since Good Vibrations Music doesn't release much on vinyl these days, the Bristol-based label's occasional compilation style EPs are a genuine must-check. McCabe naturally features prominently throughout. He begins by joining forces with Black Sonix to rework 'Rise' by the Matsiko World Orphan Choir's 'Rise', wrapping dreamy pads, twinkling piano improvisations and heady Rhodes solos around a tactile Latin house groove, before going solo and a rich and soulful rework of Missfly and David Bailey's 'Baby Don't Make Me Wait'. Over on side B, McCabe and Ellis Dee doff a cap to classic US garage on a wonderfully deep dub of 'Got It Bad', before Last Nubian steals the show with the soulful broken beat brilliance of 'Dance Together'.

Anchored firmly within the genre of House, he aims to explore many of the genre’s core fundamentals, with a particular focus on injecting Jazz motifs in all the right places.

Mike Nasty - Passion

Berlin-Hamburg duo Session Victim bring their celebrated Sidequests trilogy to a close with Chapter Three on Delusions Of Grandeur, wrapping up the series in signature style—full of warmth, groove and left-of-center touches that remind us why their music has remained so enduring over nearly two decades. Once again blurring the lines between live instrumentation, crate-digging textures and deep house aesthetics, the record feels like both a culmination and a new beginning.

Opening the A-side, Too Soft To Be Loud (Ian Pooley Remix) finds German house pioneer Ian Pooley reworking the original into a sleek, floor-focused roller. Shuffling drums, glowing synth pads, and that distinctive Pooley touch elevate the track into prime late-night territory, striking a balance between hypnotic subtlety and groove-driven energy.

PREMIERE: Session Victim - Too Soft To Be Loud [Ian Pooley Remix]

Label of the moment Space Grapes Records was born out of a late-night studio session with Another Taste band members and their co-producer Danilo Plessow, MCDE. Now headed up by Bobby van Putten and Plessow, dynamic Dutch funk collective Another Taste return in the spring of 2026 with their second full length album on the imprint; another must-have collection of tasteful original boogie, funk, and obscure disco that is full of heart and soul and lovingly recorded live to tape.

After lighting up clubs like KOKO, The Jazz Café, Tresor, New Morning, and festivals Love Supreme, Lost Village, Nuits Sonores, Hamburg Jazz, Lowlands, and ADE, Another Taste has surfaced from the studio with an arsenal of seriously heavy weapons. The album showcases Another Taste’s collective at full strength: Barend Lippens, Bobby van Putten, Bob Roche, Teun van Zoggel, Sarina Voorn, Diogo Carvalho, and Florian Verhagen. Together they summon a sound that is electrifying, communal, and unmistakably theirs! The album sees them joined by Arp Frique and the Perpetual Singers and is bolstered throughout by a dedicated brass section.

First out of the gate is the sweet soul funk jam ‘Run Into Love’.
SO GOOD!!!

PREMIERE: Another Taste - Run Into Love

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, 
Heist HQ

PREMIERE: J.D. Finburg - 2 Juicy [Disco Dubz Vol.2]

Following years spent contributing killer EPS to Dam Swindle's Heist Recordings, Outplay founders Fouk (AKA Daniel Leeseman and Hans Peeman) make their debut on Jimpster and Tom Roberts' Freerange Records imprint. The Dutch duo sets the tone with title track 'Get It Done', where jaunty piano stabs, warming chords, disco strings and heady vocal snippets and a chunky bassline dance atop a s chunky bassline and swinging, loose-limbed garage-house groove, before unfurling the string-drenched and emotive beauty of 'Floating'. On side B we get two takes on breezy and colourful deep house number 'Neon Flight': a fine, constantly building 'Club Mix', and the deeper and more musically expansive beauty of the 'First Light' take.
