When We Were Young

Amsterdam producer and DJ duo Makèz re-unite with LA vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Life on Planets for their next Classic outing, ‘Give It Life’. The frequent collaborators have made waves together since first track ‘Downstream’ drew the attention of tastemakers like Louie Vega, The Martinez Brothers, and Mr. G, with follow-up track ‘Running From The Noise’ appearing on Makèz’s 2024 EP Midnight Time. The Dutch duo have since found a second home on Luke Solomon’s Classic imprint, with 2025 release ‘Loosen Your Bones’ with London MC Pinty receiving club support from Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig and Jamie Jones. Meanwhile, Life on Planets’ 2025 Defected release with house titan Butch, ‘Get High With You’, has further cemented his status as one of dance music’s most in-demand vocalists. Together the artists and friends present ‘Give It Life’ on Classic, a club-ready groover characterised by Makèz’s piano grooves and off-kilter stabs juxtaposed with Life on Planets’ smooth vocals and lyrical chill.

London-based artist Hilit Kolet returns to Rekids, collaborating with New York’s The Illustrous Blacks, the project formed by Manchildblack and Monstah Black, for the ‘Transatlantic Kiki’ EP, landing 29th August 2025 via Radio Slave’s Rekids. Legendary father-daughter duo Floorplan remix the single, with the release following up Kolet’s 2024 ‘Snap Talk’ EP, which won support from artists like Dam Swindle, Chloé Caillet, Bradley Zero, and more.

“This record is pure, bottled fun - a sassy shout-out to the twin cities that define club culture. The Illustrious Blacks' vocals were a producer's dream, so the edgier 'First Class Mix' just had to happen. To then receive a remix from Floorplan is a massive honour; their interpretation is a masterclass, and I'm thrilled to share it.”
– Hilit Kolet

“ 'Transatlantic Kiki' was written in celebration of the iconic nightlife of two of our favorite cities in the world, NYC and London. It also serves as a tribute to our instant musical connection to Hilit.”
– The Illustrious Blacks

With lyrics that connect London and New York, ‘Transatlantic Kiki’ is a tough, funk-fueled roller true to Hilit Kolet’s signature production style, infused with an unmatchable personality via The Illustrous Blacks’ playful, vogue-like vocals. It’s hypnotic, bold, and irresistible, with the pair supplying a loopy ‘First Class’ mix that introduces vocal elements not featured in the original, amplifying the track’s qualities to hit even harder, and works the dancefloor into a sweat.

Robert and Lyric Hood, known together as Floorplan, remix Hilit Kolet & The Illustrous Blacks’ ‘Transatlantic Kiki’. Equally infectious as the original, they transform its rhythm into a drummy late-night cut. Stabs and vocal chops ride the groove, culminating in a proper lose-yourself-in-the-dance House cut that also comes with an instrumental version.

London’s Hilit Kolet came up through the former Soho Black Market Records shop, and has since become synonymous with the city’s House scene via releases on Defected, Snatch!, Domino, and Rekids, with a #1 debut on Music Week’s Upfront Club Chart and support from BBC Radio 1, Jamie Jones, HAAi, Skream, and more. NYC duo The Illustrious Blacks, comprising Manchildblack and Monstah Black, blend Afro-Electro, Funk, Disco, and House across releases on Soul Clap, Classic Music Company, and Defected, as well as collaborations with artists such as Osunlade, DJ Minx, Seven Davis Jr., and David Morales.

@djtennisdjtennis expands the universe of his recent single 'Playa Paradiso' featuring vocals by chart-topping artist @elizarosemusic with a brand new 'Club Mix' on @lifeanddeath.

The new version retools 'Playa Paradiso' into a darker, longer-burning version, stripping back the sun-kissed gloss of the original, elongating the groove, making way for the thumping, carnal low-end - a hypnotic take that trades coastal charm for heady club elevation.

Austria’s Uncertain arrives on Rekids' REK’D label for the first time with the ‘Nasty House’ EP 19th September 2025. He follows up his 2024 ‘Praise’ album on the Techno-focused RSPX sibling label, alongside several EPs since his debut in 2022.

For ‘Nasty House’, he turns the clock back to his 90s House roots, before his signature, drummy Techno sounds as Boriqua Tribez in the 2000s and later Uncertain project.

‘Nasty’ is up first, a tough beat underpinning deep, swishing synths which thread along the bassline while classic House elements subtly rear their head throughout.

‘Push’ continues, slightly more jacking, but equally classy, fusing lush chords with expert, old-school sampling.

Active since 1989 as Boriqua Tribez and known as Uncertain since 2018, he has made a name for himself with diverse productions that have made him one of Beatport’s top-selling Techno artists, while his fast-paced three-deck mixing and dancefloor storytelling fuel his tours abroad. Across the last three decades, he’s worked on countless releases on labels like Truncate, Beard Man, Illegal Alien, and Mind Medizin.

Matt Edwards launched REK’D in October 2024 to release no-nonsense House music without the limitations of parent label Rekids. It has released dancefloor-ready EPs from artists such as St. David, DCLVIII OFC, James Juke, James Curd, Ketiov, and more.
