3. Kaap - Sereen (Elisa Elisa remix)
4. DJ Sneak - I can tell you what you want (Dam Swindle remix)
5. Fouk - Tapioca (Crackazat remix)
6. Makèz - Running from the noise feat. Life On Planets (DJ Sneak dub)
7. Crackazat - In the sky (Kaap remix)

Dam Swindle, Makèz, DJ Sneak, Elisa Elisa and more show you why The Round Up part 11 is a must-have for deephouse lovers.   

2024 saw the return of real deep house to the clubs and with label hits like Makèz & Life on Planet’s release Running from the noise, Crackazat’s euphoric track ‘In the sky’ and Dam Swindle’s soulful bumper ‘Forever and Ever’, we know that there’s some serious heat available for this year’s Round Up.  

We’re going into the 11th year of our annual remixes and we’ve got some tasty & unexpected combinations of artists. One of the highlights on this release is definitely Fouk’s remix of Elisa Elisa’s banger ‘Whistle me’. The original quickly gained support from many of the leading women in dance such as Shanti Celeste & Saoirse and we’ve now got Dutch duo Fouk with one of their best remixes in years by doing a complete flip on the warehouse vibe of the original. Their version is full of tropical whistles and percussion and cleverly detunes Elisa’s own vocal to match their style with a laid-back mood and heartwarming chords. This is the kind of track that transports you straight to a sunny beach where sunsets are the highlight of the day and dancing in the sand is all you wanna do. 

Dam Swindle choose to remix DJ Sneak’s dark ghetto’esque track ‘I can tell you what you want’ and have turned it into a peak time garage monster with classic 909 elements, catchy vocal chops and a lead that soars through the track with relentless energy. This is the kind of track that gets any house party going with it’s immediacy and extremely effective arrangement.  

On the other side of the spectrum, there’s Kaap’s remix of Crackazat DJ Sneak’s remix of Makèz that show you just how lush deep house can be with dubby elements, beautiful synth work. Perfect for the warm up and after hours! 

Makèz shows us why they’re one of the most exciting producers coming out of The Netherlands at the moment with their uplifting remix of Dam Swindle’s gospel-house tune ‘Forever and Ever’.  Crackazat’s synth wizardry is evident on his summery remix of Fouk’s latin-inspired jam ‘Tapioca. Lastly we see Elisa Elisa show her signature big room & warehouse style as she turns last year’s festival hit by Kaap ‘Sereen’ into a bleepy acid affair.  

There’s always a huge amount of support on the Round Up series from all across the board on radio, streaming Dj’s alike and this edition will be no different!
 
The Roundup part 11 is a showcase of the family we’ve carefully built with Heist and we’re proud to show you these reinterpretations of some of our favorite tracks of last year.  

Have fun dancing to these and share the love, 

Lars & Maarten

Dusky techno disco tools on this fifth new one from Shadow Pressings, a UK outfit who've here nonetheless titularly alluded to the Chicago house scene. Of course, not all of us can afford to fly out to Illinois on a whim, and many of us prefer instead to let the city's long-release intoxicant effect run its course on the collective ear from a distance. The label-artist here proffers the gruffer stuff, from the grunting percs of 'Tears' through to the smoother high piquancies of 'Lost In The Dance', both of which nail that irreverent, not-too-much mood innate to all the best dance music.

Back To Classics EP

Release Date - Friday 6th June
Stream & Download - https://thediscoexpress.bandcamp.com/album/back-to-classics-ep

The Disco Express proudly presents Back to Classics, the highly anticipated new EP from Dubai-based Brazilian artist Gabriel Deb.

This collection of tracks serves as a vibrant celebration of house and disco music, blending timeless elements with a fresh and contemporary energy.

Back to Classics is a love letter to house music's enduring heritage. From the iconic 90s piano riffs in "Turn Around" to the funky guitar licks in "Just a Little," and the ballroom-inspired elegance of the "Vogue Dub Mix," the EP brims with soulful vocals and authentic grooves. Gabriel Deb seamlessly weaves the past, present, and future of house music, capturing its essence and staying true to its roots.

House music’s foundation is built on the values of inclusivity, freedom, and self-expression — ideals long championed by the LGBTQ+ community. In honour of that legacy, Back to Classics will debut during Pride Month, amplifying its themes of empowerment and unity.
________________________

Lead track "Turn Around," featuring powerhouse vocalist Michelle Weeks, channels the energy of a euphoric night out. Infused with gospel soul and diva energy, it captures the thrill of connection and the joy of losing yourself in music.

"Just a Little," is an anthem dedicated to marginalised communities. Featuring a commanding vocal performance by J Fitz, the song delivers a powerful message: stay true to yourself, even in the face of adversity. With its infectious breakbeat and funky grooves, the track embodies both strength and emotion.

Release Text: 
Feedasoul Records presents “Let’s Stay With It” EP, a 4 track EP from Brooklyn’s Yasin Hazim, delivering soulful deep house paying homage to both Detroit House music and his cultural heritage. This EP was written as a love letter to deep house, a love letter to the club environment and the people met there, in this space in between, looking for relief and connection. Through every track, you can hear this constant through line: a message between fierce resilience and longing for staying afloat in the current urgency.

Warm Rhodes & Wurlitzers mix with live bass, acid 303 lines with arabic strings, recorded jembes with classic deep house drums topped with a soulful, powerful voice. This record is a hand reaching across and connecting sounds, solid grooves and driving bass lines letting you close your eyes and feel that we’re in this together.

New spirit EP
A1 Ain’t no stoppin’
A2 New spirit
B1 No minions allowed
B2 Whatchu want is all I got
B3 New spirit (Juzz beatz)

House music doesn’t get much funkier than Demuir’s ‘New Spirit’ EP. Whether it’s the classic sampling on the title track – an homage to his mother-, or the rolling funk bass and vocal chops on ‘Ain’t no stoppin’ ‘, Demuir brings an unstoppable groove with his 2nd release on Heist.

The man behind so many great house records has kept himself rather busy with building his own fanbase, openly debating the role that big platforms play and the firm grip they have on talent. Rather than conforming to the standard route, Demuir chooses to navigate the winding road of building his own following through his production classes, engineering and music releases through artist-first channels like Patreon.

His recent move from Toronto to Chicago feels perfectly in line with the sound&nbsp;Demuir is bringing forward on his first record on Heist since his 2019 classic ‘Werq, feel, gruv, vogue’. Those 6 years were well worth the wait: The ‘New Spirit’ EP&nbsp; is a perfectly-balanced mix of creativity, confidence and character. The Demuir sound is instantly audible throughout the release and he’s not afraid to make bold choices. Each track has its own identity, its own place on the record and it’s one of the things that make this record stand out in the best way possible. The forward-leaning grooves, the tight mixing and the classic use of soulful samples are a treat to listen and dance to. There’s hints of the 90s New York sound (New Spirit), soulful disco-tinged grooves his new home-town is known for (Ain’t no stoppin’), lean-back and summery melodic grooves (No minions allowed) and deep, bassheavy dubby grooves (Whatchu want is all I got) to remind everyone that Demuir is an absolute master of modern day house music.

We’ve been playing all these songs for a while and we’re happy to finally share these with you.

As always, enjoy the music and play it loud!

Lars &amp; Maarten&nbsp;

Next up on Marcel Vogel’s vital Lumberjacks In Hell imprint comes quite possibly one of the strongest tracks I’ve heard on the label - and Lumberjacks have had some beauties. The future classic, soulful house groove of  ‘Real Love’ is by Antipodean producer Jerkboy, Dutch label head Marvel Vogel and the delightfully inspiring French vocalist Million Miles.
 
This global project was first planted as a seed by Marcel in Amsterdam, transmitted across half the world to Sydney, Australia to be further nourished by Jerkboy aka Adam Stivala, getting finished off in Los Angeles by French singer Million Miles, eventually making its way to London to get a fully grown remix by Oliver Night. The full fat production and layered vocals will make for one chunky, deep and soulful house groove for the dancers. The original version touching on classic disco and vocal house, while London vibemaster Oliver Night takes his remixes into deeper house and broken territory.



PREMIERE: Jerk Boy, Marcel Vogel  Ft. Million Miles- Real Love ( Oliver Night House Remix )

Out in the wild lands of the great Northwest, where the wind whispers through ancient firs, lives a fisherman. Every county has its share, sure, but this one's different. Since the 90s, his name has echoed across the Pacific Northwest and beyond: a groove mutator, a wild beat machine some might say. Pinning down his sound is like chasing a mountain mist, but your body won't care. This music's for dance floors, for minds that wander, for every soul seeking a joyful escape.
He's been a family man from the start, though the definition of family might have grown and evolved. Bringing thick vibes, that's just who he is. You might have stumbled into a legendary party he threw years ago, a hazy memory fueled by infectious beats. While he probably doesn't recall every dance floor ignited, trust us – J.P. Maxwell, AKA Maximus is a PNW great.
