Rising star AJ Christou and Canadian dancefloor powerhouse and turntablist A-Trak’s deep, dreamy label debut on Jamie Jones’ Paradise Music features Chicago house legend Robert Owens on vocals and marks an impressive start to the label’s year.

After a busy 2024 that saw Christou make his Space Miami debut for Jones’ Paradise event and host his own label showcase at Hï Ibiza, he’s back in the studio with A-Trak, the New York-based luminary whose 25-year legacy includes Coachella performances, BBC Radio 1 Essential mixes, and global anthems as Duck Sauce alongside Arman Van Helden.

“Had a lot of fun working with the legends A-Trak & Robert Owens on this one! We started this record in New York at A-Trak's studio, it was the first track we had ever worked on together. Buzzing to see it coming out on Paradise in 2025!” - AJ Christou

Following their successful 2024 collaboration ‘Sway’ on A-Trak’s Fool’s Gold Records, the pair now deliver another killer track with ‘Escape’. The cut opens with a smooth and funky vibe, layering seductive house rhythms, weighty drums, and Robert Owen's alluring vocals to create a luscious wave of late-night wonkiness. The Temple Dub then takes over with Owens’ vocals at the forefront, set against a nimble bassline, snappy percussion, and sizzling synths.

Hailing from Brazil, Marian weaves the rhythms of his home country into every track. With releases on Hot Creations, CUFF, and Deeperfect, plus his standout seven-track EP ‘Marian Moods’ on Mood Child—backed by Joseph Capriati and Marco Carola—his momentum keeps building. After appearing on Hottrax’s ‘Jams Vol. 1’ alongside Yolanda Be Cool and Fast Eddie, he now steps up for a solo return and delivers three dynamic cuts mixing old-school vibes with new-school energy. 

“This EP was really inspired by Jamie Jones’ sets—the music he plays, the energy he creates, and the tracks I love to listen to and play myself. It’s a fusion of old-school and new-school, blending a lot of styles mixed in these three tracks with a powerful bassline in all of them and a touch of Latin sauce.” - Marian. 

Up first is ‘Hands Up’, a slinky house mood with punchy beats and warping rhythms vibrating through its core. ‘No Paramo’ follows, injecting a playful funk with rolling percussion and crisp bongo accents, nodding to his Brazilian heritage. Closing out, ‘Keep On’ strips things back to a refined, understated groove, balancing deep bass tones with smooth, effortless movement. 

Marian (BR) ‘Hands Up’ drops via Hottrax on 7th March 2025.
