Toothpick aka Swirl People step out with their newly entitled label Lost In The Swirls, which they have distilled to the more simple name L.I.T.S. Records. The Belgium-based project is an alias of Dimitri & Raoul and they bring fresh house sounds here even though this is a reissue of some classic 90s material. The title track has lush and bright summer pads over driving, tight kick drums. The opener 'May The Funk Be With You' has a classic UK flavour to it with woodpecker-like hits and dusty drum loops under some smart chord work. Last but not least is 'Naked Speedway' which has a warm bassline meandering below expansive chords that bring an early morning vibe. Good stuff.

When it comes to house music, RaOuL isn’t just a name — he’s a living legend. A true OG of the Belgian scene, RaOuL has been igniting dance floors from the iconic Food Club in Leuven & Brussels to clubs across 127+ cities worldwide with his signature groove.
From dropping underground bombs with Swirl People, to hosting the trailblazing Switch show on Studio Brussel, and running the influential Aroma Recordings label, RaOuL has helped define the sound of Belgian house music for decades.
But the journey doesn’t stop there. Always evolving, RaOuL has launched a fresh new imprint: L.I.T.S Records — short for Lost In The Swirls — a nod to his roots and a bold leap into a future full of unexpected twists, fresh grooves, and boundary-pushing sounds.
His passion burns brighter than ever. If his house is smothered with funk, soul, or boogie, RaOuL’s in it, on it, and making you move. This isn’t just music. It’s a mission. It’s a vibe. It’s RaOuL.
