In the star-strewn depths of Baltimore, TDWS crafts a radiant sound, laced with cosmic pulses.
Inspired by the rich imagination of 70s & 80s sci-fi films, he composes like one dreams — between blurred neon lights and ghostly spacecraft.

His music, designed for the club, makes bodies move while gently stirring the soul — an alchemy of raw energy and melodic sensitivity. Each track is a miniature odyssey, a suspended scene, where synths paint interstellar landscapes. The rhythms beat like electronic hearts, oscillating between tension and release. TDWS doesn't just make you dance — he invites you to journey inward, eyes closed, into otherworldly realms.

There's no need to introduce the Swiss army knife of the label Brandski. Through his remix, he breathes new elegance into progressive trance, carried by a retrofuturistic breeze. His reimagining moves forward, magnetic — where 90s echoes meet visions of tomorrow.

Berlin’s J Choirboy debuts on Rekids Special Projects with the ‘Mammoth’ EP, landing 17th October 2025. The title track taps into the sort of big, muscular club tools that defined Rekids label head Radio Slave’s early career, with fizzing chords hanging above booming kicks and a constant tension built to dominate dance floors. ‘Loam’ is just as heavy, this time with bright chords bouncing oﬀ gritty, rolling drums for full-body workouts in the club. ‘Stacco’ sinks into grainy territory with static-charged synths and a swinging kick, perfect for warm-ups or 5 a.m. hypnosis. Closing cut ‘The Miller’ layers liquid chords and perfectly syncopated drums into a vast wall of warm, enveloping Dub.

Rooted in choral traditions but driven by a love for Techno and early rave, J Choirboy channels both musical depth and raw energy into his productions. Now based in Berlin, he has previously released on La Mission, now returning with a strong debut for RSPX via the ‘Mammoth’ EP, which has already won support from the likes of DJ Rolando, Elisa Bee, and Truncate.

Michael Mayer became obsessed with Erik Luebs, an American producer based in Osaka, after stumbling upon his independently released music on Bandcamp. Luebs’ talent for creating high-energy, minimalist acid techno with impeccable, futuristic sound design swiftly earned him a regular place in Mayer’s sets. It was only a matter of time before Luebs made his debut on Kompakt’s Speicher series with this highly versatile EP. ‘Riding the Blade’ opens the four-track EP, showcasing Luebs’ signature punchy psychedelia. ‘Scarlet Viscera’ features a sleek, minimal groove that is reminiscent of the genre’s heyday in the 2000s. ‘Transform Into Glass’ emanates blissful Detroit vibes, and the EP closes with a real bang: ‘Sucked Through Tube’ creates a frenzy on the dance floor without the need for a single kick drum. If you like your techno sexy and forward-thinking, there’s no way around the man from Osaka. Play it loud!

The next release of remixes for Moderna's debut album, "The Future Is Among
Us," is set to drop on October 17th via Brave New Rave.

The new EP dives into three standout tracks from the album, "The Future Is
Among Us," "DIE4U," and "Pappenheimer," and enlists a heavyweight cast of
collaborators to give them a new life.

The record opens with two very different, but equally powerful, remixes of the
title track. French duo Kimshies delivers a dark, club-ready slow-burner, while
Karassimeon cranks up the energy with an indie-dance, Italo bumper.

Next, "DIE4U" gets a thrilling new perspective from Slow Motion Record's
founder Franz Scala and synth-wave doll Neu-Romancer. Both artists inject
their signature styles, transforming the original with their unique, unmistakable
flair.

Closing out the EP is Almost Falling, the new project from German producers
Esther Silex and Kotelett, who give us their downbeat version of
“Pappenheimer”.

This remix EP is more than just a collection of new versions—it's a bold
expansion of Moderna's original vision, further cementing "The Future Is Among
Us" as a quintessential electronic album.

Exploited Club warmly welcome in Pleasure Voyage who step up to the plate and do as they do best: casting out a wide musical net, gathering in influences from Breaks, House, Disco, Balearic and Funk whilst pulling in a hefty dose of fun, flair and ecstasy to boot.

'Cuánto Cuesta' is a simmering pot of pure joy. A bubbling bass line has the track on a low boil throughout while luscious, buoyant synths intimately jostle alongside bold but allaying piano chords. Classic breaks snap in the back while a gently acidic lead flexes in and out of focus and the resultant groove sends out a clear and cosy invitation to get loose.

A regular on Johannes Albert's Frank Music's label and Tensnake's True Romance, Claus Casper chips in with his 'No Tengo Dinero' remix - a fortified revision that packs an extra punch with a layered snare, cow bells and an open hat that seasons the groove with a little bite and snap.

Rolling snare fills punctuate the track as Claus creates ramps for sections that showcase his indisputable chops on the keys. The passion and heat of the orignal remains intact as progress tumbles towards a long, spine-tingling breakdown that pops wide open in a manner that will send the floor absolutely nuts.

Italian producer Birdee launches his brand-new imprint Hot City with ‘Your Love’, a vibrant nu-disco gem featuring the powerhouse UK vocalist that is Alexis Victoria Hall. 
Known for his refined take on modern disco, Italian-born producer Birdee spent time crafting this record in LA’s Silverlake during a sun-drenched creative stint. Blending Californian sunshine with European disco heritage, this uplifting cut brings shimmering strings, a classic bassline, and Hall’s soaring vocals all together for a feel-good anthem built for soulful dancefloors and sunset sessions. “I wanted the first Hot City release to feel joyful and warm. ‘Your Love’ is exactly that,” says Birdee. Alexis Victoria Hall adds serious emotional weight to the track, making it equally at home on radio rotations, rooftop sets, and late-night disco dancefloors.

Originally "Back in the Days" released in 2004 on Resopal Schallware marked Tigerskin as a torchbearer for pop-oriented groovy House, reviving the raw energy of early 90s bleeps, swung beats, and untamed dance floor spirit but transforming it with the technical possibilities of the early 00s into his trademark romantic vision.

From the pulse of “Dance Now” to the cringey charm of “Party in My Car,” Tigerskin proved that Back in the Days was more than a look backward - it was a bridge between era's: a reminder that the roots of club culture still grow, still breathe, still move people.

Two decades on, this re‑release doesn’t just bring back nostalgia - it reminds us that reminiscing every once in a while can push creativity. The album and a few EPs around it were the start of a pretty different approaches to club music for Tigerskin, that led to several big tracks and remixes, some now considered to be classics by many. 

The three formerly unreleased and slightly more club-oriented bonus tracks had been recorded the same year but were amongst many that didn’t make it to the album.

JKriv returns to Rocksteady Disco after a six-year break with his stunning ‘Adaptation EP’. 

This super solid five tracker continues J's hot streak on seemingly every great label around the world including his own Razor-N-Tape, with a deep organic sound, thanks to it being mostly produced in his MPC3000 era. 'Greene Street Lament' kicks it off on a boom bap beat tip. Next 'Adaptation' gets the party started with lush strings, piano, and a huge bassline. On the flip is 'Total Pleasure', a midtempo boogie house joint with enough sub to rattle your car door handles off. 'Vibetown' continues on the MPC tip with killer breaks and chops for all the heads. Lastly, the 'Adaptation (Dub)' closes out with the driving dance floor sound we all know and love JKriv for. Housed in a gorgeous picture sleeve and cut loud to vinyl, this EP is an absolute must have.

Release date : 24/10/2025
BUY : https://99fvr.bandcamp.com/album/attitude-drums

Adult Hits makes dance music that sweats, mutates, and smiles back at you. A co-founder of Sensory Signal and a fixture in the Los Angeles underground, he builds worlds from percussion — grooves that start as a pulse and end as possession. His sound leans toward the playful and the psychedelic: prog swung through breaks, acid melted into color, humor folded into hypnosis. There’s always a wink in the chaos, a kind of sly confidence that comes from knowing exactly how the room will move.

Attitude Drums EP packs a sassy, proggy punch square in the chest. Euphoric wobbles and wibbly ear~candy collide with psy~esque licks and naughty breaks. No rest for the wicked, Adult Hits flirts across the EP with raw personality; his locked-in percussion, trippy pads and nasty vocal chops carry the floor effortlessly.
