Dutch talent Secnd returns to NoZzo Music for a full label debut with his ‘Pop Up Shot’ EP.

Following several impressive showings on previous NoZzo Music releases, Netherlands-based DJ/Producer Secnd is back on Tomi & Kesh’s increasingly popular label outfit with his first solo EP, enlisting Miami’s Slugg on remix duties for the b-side, ‘Get Groovy’. 

Kicking things off with the title cut, ‘Pop Up Shot’ comes in hot with an onslaught of percussive-heavy tech flavours. Building around weighty rolling drums and a huge sub-bass melody, its bright textures, vocal shots and subtle melodies pave the way for an ebb and flow of upbeat terrace vibes from start to finish.

‘Get Groovy’ comes next, serving a slightly stripped-back persona with an emphasis on (you guessed it) groove. Swaying rhythms bounce over the top of resonant harmonies and playful vox chops to carve out a silky underground vibe-builder. 

Slugg follows up with his spin on ‘Get Groovy’, turning in a jazzier, chunkier rendition of the original, flooded with endless layers of nonchalant percussive drive. Orbiting a centrepiece saxophone sample, it’s a show of sophisticated class from the word go.

‘Tell You’ closes the release with another stripped-back dancefloor-pleaser. Another combo of crisp drums and rippling percussive playfulness combines with a rolling bassline and tonal injections throughout to deliver an endlessly danceable mood-setter. 

Secnd’s ‘Pop Up Shot’ EP is available from 21st April 2023 via NoZzo Music.

Welcome back to Miami! From the raw basement and brutal stabs of Nicole Fiallo & Matthew James's 'Make You Dance' and thunderous, rolling bassline of Charlie De Ville's 'Circulate', this is a breathless, frenetic collection of tech house gems. A.D.'s 'Break A Sweat' is a sultry ghetto house gem, while HVRST's 'Pulse Rate' seethes with a bubbling, barely restrained intensity. And naturally there's a new cut from Doc Brown himself, whose 'Shine' is a beautifully subtle masterclass in building tension through intricate percussion and half-whispered vocals. This release is more than just a collection of tracks; it's a reflection of the enduring spirit of electronic music & the vibrant culture of Miami's dance music community. Now, let's celebrate!
