Next, Rene Amesz takes his trademark techy style to the track, incorporating crisp, percussive rhythms resulting in a whole new tech workout for the clubs. 
Finally, ATFC takes the track to another level, crafting the aptly named ‘When The Lights Go Up’ remix, resulting in a laidback adaptation that that pulls at the heartstrings for the perfect finale tune.

Mark Knight & Funkagenda - 'Man With The Red Face (Rene Amesz Remix)' - OUT NOW

Approaching the release of his upcoming House Masters compilation, Snatch! Records owner Riva Starr remixes a recent staple from Defected's catalogue. Larse's hit 'A Part Of' made waves in 2022 following its exclusive vinyl release, and the track received significant play throughout the summer. Now Riva takes the bold orchestral features of the original and flings them around the stratosphere, warping them playfully to create an otherworldly, retro sound before a thick bass smashes us back down to earth. With a bright, recognisable vocal and a deep house feel, this stellar remix marks another impeccable release for Riva Starr.

VA_RE Cords proudly presents its latest release: Velvet Haze, a striking new EP from the rising minimal deep tech artist Robsessive. Driven by crisp percussion, hypnotic grooves, and deep, textured atmospheres, Velvet Haze explores the mysterious edge of the underground.

Adding an extra dimension to the release is a standout remix by CVO (DE), who reinterprets one of the originals with a more driving, club-oriented energy, perfect for late-night floors.
