Introducing the first Steel City Compact Disc!

For the inaugural SC-CD001, the Steel City Dance Laboratory has identified 4 infectious Techno microbes from the coast with the most, @x-coast

Unfettered by the laws of the past, the Brooklyn-based Serbian rave export harnesses classic House and Techno traits, building upon the sound genetics of the genres with new science. The result is Riviera Techno – a vigorous tropical bounce mutation.

⚠ Dispose of this release safely, with the volume up.

James Pepper - CLUB TRAX VOL 1. [EP]

Out now via Club Trax.

Sydney club-kid James Pepper has delivered his first instalment of CLUB TRAX, featuring 4 house-heavy originals which are ready and designated for dance floors.

James’ first instalment of Club Trax sees him introduce 4 driving house cuts - full of power, warmth and euphoria, giving us an insight into the inspirations that have surrounded JP’s upbringing within the dance music community. Through using his “less is more” approach, we are enriched by four tracks that are hosted by simple yet effective elements that make up a powerful EP full of club originals, which are suitable to be played on large systems in big dance-halls, as well as within the smaller-scale, intimate environments.

The epitome of James’s introduction to the world of dance music came after he unleashed his club-hit Three Drops during the broadcasting of his debut Boiler Room in his home-town, Sydney. Co-written by Black Loops, James would return to his home away from home and visit his old friend Black Loops (Riccardo) in Berlin, where he would begin writing his Club Trax EP. James would begin the creative process Riccardo’s studio while he was away touring throughout the European summer. James began to fall in love with the studio’s hardware offerings, and in particular - Riccardo’s Roland MC909. The prominent early 2000s groovebox would become the centre piece of production work that makes up the Club Trax EP.

After returning home to Sydney, JP’s first order of business was to purchase a second hand MC909 from Japan, and begin finishing what he has started in Berlin. With tracks Zwarte Pad & Praise You being an ode to the sound he holds dearest, James attempted to recreate the prominent 90s club-record sound, whilst also offering his own input in the process.

The remainder of the EP sees tracks Residential Advisor & EVERYONE I LOVE give us an insight into a more new-school era, potentially alluding us to where James could be heading next - whilst also keeping it true to this heavily referenced 90s sound.

After understanding JPs love for dance music and the influences that got him to where he is today, it will be exciting to hear and see the reactions of this club-record on dance-floors across the world. No frills, just straight forward dance classics & driving house hits, as James Pepper delivers his first instalment of CLUB TRAX VOLUME ONE.

Out now via Club Trax.

Fisher Project - I Get A Rush (Dark Mix)2000

With its consistent output of rockin and raw club music, the Glasgow-based imprint Dixon Avenue Basement Jams gets straight to the point and direct to the dancefloor. Up next on the imprint is Fear-E with his 4-track EP 'Posh End Sponk Trax Vol. 1'. 

Of the four sonic warheads on the release, Mixmag has selected 'Jump On The House Train' - a track that, according to the DABJ crew, has become "a staple" in their club sets and mixes, and is consistently one of the "most asked about tracks" they have on rotation.
