Toy Tonics main artists @COEO from Munich are back. The 2 guys started their career on Toy Tonics 7 years ago and since then made a long way. Their last EP „Piano Workout“ got heavy support from DJs like Job Jobse, Kim Ann Foxman & Perel and opened a new vibe in their oeuvre: They extended their style to more Balearic, Italo, Synth funk 80ies vibes. "25 Hundred Friends" is an ironic take on Italopop and social media… and will be a song people talk about for sure. "Slipstream" could be big on festivals with its classic DX/baseline and hypnotic vibe.

"Midnight Vision" has this light Caribbean and South African influences. The vibe you could feel on Don Laka's classic "Stages". And fits well with everything Toy Tonics releases in its Mushroom House series. Yeah, Toy Tonics and COEO open up for even more eclectic influences and extend house music to more levels and styles.

Following on from 80’s inspired anthem ‘Who’s Got the Time’, Musumeci delivers with a fun-fuelled Indie Dance four-tracker, ‘Discomagico’ on Future Disco.

Kickstarting the EP in style, in collobarotation with Qubica, ‘The Chameleon’ is a bubbling Italo track with a galloping bassline, retro pads, and a euphoric, trancey breakdown. Big, dance-inducing baselines run throughout ‘Discomagico’, and this is no exception with ‘Figli Delle Stelle’, featuring Phunkadelica, which boasts epic synth lines, fizzing pads, and Musumeci’s signature retro-meets-modern Disco sound. 

Musmeci joins forces with Alican and vocalist, Nick Mauer for ‘Who’s Got The Time’,  with the grooviest bassline, bright synths, and colourful tones that ignite the track throughout. Nick Mauer’s vocals are the element that takes the track to new levels with a commanding flow, and playful lyrics. ‘Who’s Got The Time’ is a fun-fuelled nu-disco banger. Closing out the EP is ’Not Tonight’, another euphoric Nu-Disco anthem that feels like the perfect set-closer.

Kicking off the Musumeci project in the late 80s, Mauro Di Martino has produced and remixed on the likes of Bedrock, Diynamic Music, and Innervisions. His new release, ‘Who’s Got the Time’ is the first single for his forthcoming EP, ‘Discomagico’ on Future Disco.

Bay Area heroes Mozhgan & Solar at No Way Back: Streaming From Beyond 2021, going deep and hypnotic in the early morning as they bridge the sound of the No Way Back cavernous dance floor with the heady beginnings of the Outer Space Room, playing directly between Mike Servito and Scott Zacharias. This is pure high end psychedelia, perfectly executing their concept of mesmerizing throbbing, burning and jacking jams with such grace, conscious intention, deep skill and passion. The styles and eras that they fuse is just so exciting, there’s nothing else quite like this — dripping with vibe. Heavy and heady.

LDI Records serves up a celebration of The Hague's famous electro sound with native Cliff Dalton aka Sander Evers behind four originals and fellow West Coast legends Legowelt and Rude66 both remixing.

Cliff Dalton is a relatively new project from a long-time Dutch music great. Sander Evers is the drummer in psychedelic stoner rock band Monomyth and has played with other notable groups including 35007 and Gomer Pyle. Next to those projects, he has always had his ear tuned into the region's enduring electro scene and now offers up his own fresh take on it. The EP's title refers to the fact that all these artists are bound by geography but is also a nod to the fact that The Hague is the largest Dutch city by the sea.

The opener 'We Are The Little Ones' is about an evil robot factory in a futuristic dystopian city. It is a coruscated electro-funk workout with crisp analogue drums and nimble bass overlaid with withering sci-fi melodies. 'We Don't Need A Real World' is a superbly cinematic eight-minute excursion with widescreen synth work taking you to the stars as you ride an elastic bassline. The majestic 'City Under The Sea' then layers up neck-snapping snares with cosmic arps and plunging bass and 'Cleopatra's Matrix' soundtracks an ancient Egyptian city with its mystic leads and eerie pads luring you into a late-night electro trance.

West Coast pin-up and hugely prolific electronic innovator Legowelt remixes 'We Are The Little Ones'. His version has plenty of his textbook intrigue, lo-fi texture and magical synth charm, and finally key Bunker Records associate Rude 66 flips 'City Under The Sea' into a snaking dub rhythm with hypnotic acid lines and seductive vocal whispers woven in deep.

The Blue City EP is a timeless package of West Coast electro direct from the source.

PRE-ORDER: https://bosconirecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-hidden-game-passarani-remix

In a true celebration of Italian electronic music from across the generations, Bosconi is honoured to present unreleased works from the legendary Alexander Robotnick. A true titan of Florentine music who helped define the Italo disco scene with a glittering run of evergreen club classics, Robotnick is still as creative now in his 70s as he was when first firing off his trademark arpeggios in the early 1980s.

For a few years now Robotnick, real name Maurizio Dami, has mainly released new or previously unreleased music via his own Hot Elephant Music. As such, we’re thrilled to present three original tracks on vinyl, cut hot and ready to set a disco alight. Transcending the trappings of retro-fetishism, vintage this or old-skool that, the tracks on this 12” could be called techno or electro as easily as Italo – it’s quite simply impeccable dance music as delivered by a master craftsman.

Adding to the sense of occasion celebrating the foundations of the Italian scene, we’re equally thrilled to welcome Marco Passarani to remix
Robotnick’s ‘The Hidden Game’. His appropriately titled ‘Legacy’ mix operates as an alternate version in the traditional style, holding true to
the essence of the original while offering a slightly altered perspective. It’s a distinct mix with Passarani’s own distinctive Italo flair plain to hear – if anything his version sounds more retro than the original – but it’s still very much invested in what Robotnick created to begin with.

Given the influence both these artists have had on the musical culture our own label is built on, this release holds a special place in our hearts, and we’re excited to be sharing it with the world, where the throbbing basslines and sparkling pads can work their magic under the disco ball in a thousand dimly lit dance spots

Pre-order: https://maryarcane.bandcamp.com/album/marry-me

'Marry Me' is the first of two tracks that came to life as a maxi-single born from the merging of Lisbon's @ecstasya and @maryarcane - two musical universes with an experimental take on pop music and influence from hardcore, PC music and J-POP.

Mary Arcane is a rising artist from cyberspace who has been practising her 'trans voice', as she calls it, over the course of a year, using her vocals for the first time in this track. Ecstasya adds instrumentals from euphoric synths to fast-paced beats complimented by Mary's glitchy sound design and hard kicks. Together, they result in this hard approach to pop music challenging the stiff boundaries of musical genres.

Premiere: Ecstasya & Mary Arcane 'Marry Me'

Pre-order: https://hazydays.fanlink.to/sagittarius-a

Following up his @hazydaysforever debut, Brazil's @hnqo returns with another great offering. 'Sagittarius A' follows in the vein of his first label appearance with a breakbeat-infused house groove, and a relaxed, yet rich combination of pads and hooks.
