D3EO23 - Abacus - Lost Stories Vol.2

Summer is officially here! The newest edition of our Chillhop Essentials series, Summer 2025 is our 38th compilation in this ongoing seasonal tradition. 

With nearly 50 artists across 28 instrumentals, Essentials Summer 2025 is a community-driven project full of sunshine and life. Pack your sunscreen and throw on some flip-flops because these energized yet laid-back instrumentals are sure to soundtrack your time by the pool, by the beach, or simply cruising around your city with the windows (finally) down. Summer is a time to close the laptop and step out into the world, taking on new adventures and embracing the extended daylight. Featuring familiar names like Ruck P, Birocratic, Ian Ewing, Nymano, Moods, Misha, and so many others (like the long-awaited return of Tantu Beats and the Chillhop debut of SYNC.EXE), this 70+ minute release is perfect for your summer months ahead.

Whether it's jazzhop, lofi hip-hop, chillhop, instrumental beats, boom bap, or old school, whatever you want to call it, this summertime collection has a little something for everyone. So grab your sunglasses, your beach towel, and your pool noodle. When you're done, you can chill out, because Summer is here.

In case you missed it, our Raccoon is on a super cool floating island all year long. Last season, our mascot was alone on a self-guided self-care retreat, but now Mango the Toucan has come along for the ride. Dive into the immersive visual experience and stay tuned to see where this calendar year will take our forever adventurous Chillhop characters.

Ritmo Terco is kicking off 2025 with an exciting new release from our label boss, Joint4nine. From The Hood EP showcases four tracks that highlight his signature deep, soulful disco house style.

The release opens with "What A Lovely Way To Burn," a deep disco house track that sets the tone for the EP. A jazzy vocal sample evokes a melancholic vibe, while infectious basslines and groovy drums lay down a classic Joint4nine rhythm Next, “Disco Ball” brings a perfect blend of disco and electro beats. A catchy electro melody merges with vibrant disco vocals, creating a high-energy track that will light up any dancefloor. “Climb The Wall” pays tribute to old-school house, blending acid rave elements with a modern electro twist. It’s a nostalgic yet fresh take, capturing the essence of classic rave while pushing the sound forward. The release closes with "I’m From The Hood," a spoken-word Detroit deep house track infused with Hip Hop and funky soul samples. The mix of acoustic percussion and acid motifs delivers a unique, genre-defying conclusion to the EP.

Deep88 - Can U Feel It

Following the critical acclaim of their self-titled debut EP, praised by the likes of scene figures such as Gilles Peterson, Lefto, Laurent Garnier, Kevin Beadle, Pat Steel or Shy One,
the Marseilles quartet Angles Morts is back with a four-track EP reflecting further growth in their sound.
Drawing on the idea of itinerancy inspired by their wanderings on the roads of southern France, the project showcases a stunning soundscape,
filled with the hypnotic textures provided by their arsenal of synths including Prophet Rev-2, Roland Alpha Juno 1, Emu-Orbit and Nord Lead A1.

Glowing, goofy and groovy, “Mame Note” showcases the band's savoir-faire in handling moods and nuances, all with hallucinatory playfulness.

PREMIERE: Angels Morts - Mame Note [Dope Tones Records]

Manchester-based producer Lily Mumby, the creative force behind Lapalace, has chosen Lavender as her botanical muse for this sixth instalment.

The standout track ‘new age night’ – a stunning love child of William Basinski's decaying tape loops and Aphex Twin's intricate programming—carries subtle lavender-inspired tones, balancing the plant's calming essence with hypnotic rhythms. Just as lavender requires thoughtful tending before rewarding the gardener with its distinctive aroma, Lapalace's landscapes reveal deeper complexities with each listen.
