London-based duo @pistashio-wav gear up to release their debut single 'Without You', landing tomorrow on all platforms.

Combining their love for hard electronic, ambient, and pop music, 'Without You' merges breaks and contrasting vocal samples atop shimmering leads, making for a juxtaposition of elements.

“'Without You' was recorded in our bedroom studios using live drum machines/synths and programmed elements," say the duo on their debut production.

EMA’s Woozy label returns with Sha Ru’s Match My Sway EP; a powerful club record that sits proudly in the canon of modern protest music. Dubstep-influenced electronics meet spoken word on the continued struggle of oppressed nations’ fight for liberation. Comes with a slamming Walton remix, with all artist profits going towards the Kyiv Angels and Repair Together charities in Ukraine.

Sha Ru are a New York-via-Berlin based duo renowned for their deft mix of spoken word and club electronics, gaining notoriety thanks to their exhilarating productions and renowned live, hybrid and DJ sets. Side B enters with Synced Energies, acting as the EP’s thrilling climax. Percolating synths pogo around a 2-step beat providing chest-gripping catharsis. Lyrics repeat a mantra of unity, refuting divisions.

Named after @rudda_music’s late grandfather’s middle name, 'St John' encapsulates melancholic hopefulness wrapped in club-ready energy. Landing tomorrow on Dancing Family (@user-51780230), RUDDA's ode to UK garage swerves effortlessly between elements of 2-step, breaks, and house.

"I have an interest in the connections between different dance genres, the similarities and differences in how they relate and rely on each other is something I aim to explore in my music," says RUDDA on this release.

@pressuredome label-head @yushh lands on @wisdomteeth-uk with her long-anticipated debut EP, ‘Look Mum No Hands’ - an assured four-tracker that draws on Bristol bass, footwork, jungle and broken techno to create something fresh and upfront.

On the EP's penultimate track, ‘Close Fall’ squeezes darkside d’n’b sonics into a chugging 95 BPM beat template.
