Colombian duo TacoMan & Raized link up on Jamie Jones’ Hottrax for ‘90s MTV’ with a three-track EP of trippy house this April. 

Title track ‘90’s MTV’ brings speaker-rattling kicks and toms alongside frenzied vocals and whirring FX for an upfront start to the EP, followed by ‘R2Dminor’ which sees a set of sizzling percussion over a hypnotic bassline and flickering synthesis. 

Rounding off the release is ‘Paradigm’, which sees the duo reach for delayed vocal chops and raw, visceral drum patterns across a blown-out low end set for sound system mayhem. 

Previously collaborating on Hector Couto’s Roush Label in 2019, ‘90’s MTV’ sees the two Medellin based producers teaming up again for a fiercely entertaining EP of club-ready house music on Jamie Jones’ party-starting Hottrax imprint. 

TacoMan & Raized ’90’s MTV’ drops on Hottrax 2nd April.

Rob Stillekens and Alessandro Diruggiero come together for their first collaborative release, with both artists having featured previously on the label. ‘U Aint Ready’ features two dance floor focused and percussive heavy original tracks, accompanied by a remix from Italian artist Alessio Bianchi.

‘U Ain’t Ready’ opens the release with driving drums, rippling percs and a catchy bassline groove. Subtle melodies continue to rise through the track, bringing bright and uplifting energy to the mix whilst vocals stir along in the background - Terrace Tech with a summertime feel. 

‘To Hit It’ follows with a deepened approach and stripped back elements. Punchy kicks meet rhythmic sub-bass whilst an array of percussive instruments help build a rolling groove. The track is wrapped up nicely with the addition of creative fills and a soulful vocal; underground flavours en masse. 

Alessio Bianchi’s remix of ‘To Hit It’ closes the release with racy energy and heaps of character. Fast-paced drum work fires off scattered tops and fills whilst vocal chops add cadence in the background. A huge sub bassline adds the finishing touches to this peak time weapon!

Mirco Caruso - Tell Me (Original Mix) [Happy Techno Music Label]

People (Original Mix)

The next release on Libero comes courtesy of one of the label's leading men, Luke Welsh. The Kaluki & WHP resident is on top form as he delivers an impressively potent EP in the form of ‘Not The Same’ - featuring three hot off the press original cuts, highlighting his ever-increasing production talent and adding even more weight to the Libero name.

Kicking things off, ‘Not The Same’ leaps straight into that signature label format of percussive-led groove and easy-going momentum. Layers of intricate drum components drive the track with not only cadence but also add subtle melody - complimenting the weighty low-frequency bass melody. The track is broken up with a progressively climatic synth riff and accompanying vox line that builds the perfect ledge to kick you off, straight back into the groove once more. Played numerous times by Marco Carola.

‘Mad Marksman’ has an undeniable tribal feel to it. Fat-bottomed kicks meet the sizzle of hand drums rattling from left to right that give off a really attractive primal energy. Another deep and heavy roller in the lower end of the frequency spectrum with progressively building and subtle melodic elements - dusted off with yet more clever vox arrangements. A track with an essentially raw and soulful appeal, that will have you reaching for the repeat button.

Last but certainly not least, ‘Campione’ completes the release with another welcomed instalment of full-bodied kicks and a seemingly endless array of movement-inspiring rhythmic elements. A bottom-heavy head bopper to say the least with ‘crammed terrace’ written all over it, carrying that nonchalant loose-necked feel from start to finish. Reminiscent of the sort of track you would hear at peak time at a Music On type party.

Luke Welsh - Not The Same

One could describe Mirco Caruso’s previous career with just three words: “haste makes waste”.  The club-musician with Italian roots’ approach to music is never contrived - nor does he care for exclusive hype or shallow bandwagoning. Mirco Caruso’s career is embossed by a gravitas that has consistently and continuously led him to the music that reflects his passion the most.
The steep rise that started with his first tech house release in 2014 - and was followed by broad international support and gigs around the world - suddenly came to a halt in 2020 when Covid hit.
Yet, against all odds, this marks the beginning of Caruso’s musical and artistic transition. After struggling with finding new inspiration and creativity amidst a world turned upside down, passion finally was reignited after visiting a concert that would inspire a profound change. A change that has ultimately resulted in his newly formed moniker «MICA» that represents an equally newly formed, inherently melodic and dreamy signature sound. One thing, though, remains unchanged: MICA’s impeccable flair for deeply touching productions and his incredible skill set in the studio. Surely, it won’t be long, until his music yet again finds its way back into the rotations of the biggest names in the industry.
