Brazil’s finest is back with a bang! “Drink In Paris” bears all the hallmarks of a Gui Boratto classic in the tradition of “Beautiful Life”, “Like You” or “No Turning Back”. Something’s different though… This time the vocals don’t come from Gui’s wife Luciana Villanova but from Amsterdam-based fashion designer extraordinaire LHANA MARLET. And there’s another sweet surprise: The pop-heavy original gets expertly carved into a moroderesque club banger by none other than Deep Dish legend DUBFIRE. Santé, les amis!

Ellum Audio serves up a selection of dance floor weapons on a bumper new sampler handpicked by label head Maceo Plex. 

Italian Laherte trained at Studio 76 Music and has since built on that early promise with tunes on top labels. He opens up with 'My Mind', a driving techno cut with slapping hits and filtered alien sounds bringing the menace. Ellum Audio artist Waltervelt then keeps it dark and cosmic with the skewed synth energy and prickly beats of his eerie 'Back Room'.

Argentina's David Bau has made big moves in the underground with this potent take on techno. Here he offers up 'Deconstruct', a tense and turbulent stomper with flashy synth designs and intense, grinding bass. French mainstay Madben follows up his excellent recent album with 'The Drone Dance', another standout track with strobe-lit synth lasers firing over the face of an ice-cold rhythm. 

Part 2 opens with Ibiza-based producer and DJ John Monkman, the founder of Beesemyer Music and a familiar face on this label. He impresses again with 'Talking Heads', another sublime mix of futuristic synth designs carefully layered up over compelling, steel-edged drums. 8-Bit Culprit is the house and techno alter ego of Faraz Ehsan from India. His 'Refurbished Robots' is an electrifying peak time cut that takes you to the heart of a dance floor in outer space, with nebulous pads and squealing cosmic sounds all wrapping around the urgent grooves. 

Next up is the collaborative Headwaters duo from Turkey. They draw on their mix of electronic sounds and instrumental skills on 'Eternal Madness', a slick tech track that locks you into crisp loops then mesmerises with the glowing synth harmonies which shine brightly up top. Danish DJ and producer Christian Nielsen is back on the label to round out this collection with 'Liberate,' a dark dance floor punisher with neck-snapping snares and ghoulish voices over a slithering and hypotonic beat. This has already been receiving plays from Maceo Plex at the likes of Timewarp, Brunch Madrid and the Ushuaia opening and is set to be a summer highlight. 

This is another high-class voyage to the edges of the techno galaxy courtesy of Ellum.

Maceo Plex & AVNU have teamed up for 'Clickbait (This Ain't Hollywood)', the standout new single from Maceo Plex’s forthcoming album. 

Maceo Plex continues to be one of electronic music's most recognisable names. He has fomented his own uniquely interplanetary take on forward-thinking, melodic techno and deep house whilst being the driving force behind Lone Romantic and Ellum Audio. As a DJ, he continues to headline the world’s leading festivals and clubs year in, year out. AVNU is one of Maceo Plex’s most hotly-tipped new acts of recent years, based on the East Coast of Scotland. Last May, he served up his adventurous album ‘Tough To Love But Worth The Effort’ on Ellum, which was the product of two decades immersed in all genres of music and was a storytelling mix of house, electro, synth, techno and pop. 

The superb 'Clickbait (This Ain't Hollywood)' channels Daft Punk into a contemporary slice of robot techno funk. It's a monster of a track that builds on irresistibly slinky drums with widescreen synths and a chugging bassline that sweeps you up, up, and away to the stars. The topical lyrics aim to highlight the disparities between social media influencer lifestyles and the realities of everyday life in mainstream Hollywood and modern-day society in general. 

This one has got summer anthem written all over it, such is its universal charm.

Clickbait (This Ain't Hollywood)

Here comes the Four To The Floor 31.
Opening track „Machine Learning“ by Costello a dance floor weapon with an abstract vibe - its rhythm feels like the sound of robots on an assembly line that suddenly that started rewriting their own code.
„Odd Behavior“ by Modeplex hits a darker tone; melodic vibes with lots of sub bass and a mysterious voice casting spells.
Jeremy Olander contributes „Phonox“, a driving and melancholic tune with punch and an analog feel to it.
And closing off the FTTF31 is Doriann and Randoree’s „Mention“ with eclectic percussion work and hypnotic synths and vocals.

Deep groove purveyor and Toronto mainstay Tyler Hill lands on Ellum Audio with a new pair of tracks that come with a remix by label regular AVNU.

Tyler Hill is an artist who dips into many musical influences, from funk to European electronica to synth-infused 80s magical via hip hop and electronica. He plays all around Toronto's key venues, is one half of DJ duo +ONE and hosts a residency at Wiggle Room, which is also the name of the label he recently launched with his long-time friend and manager, Takin Nateghi.

Opener ‘Smooth' is a heavy and thumping track that drips with sweat and sleazy vocals. The bass rumbles down low, and the raw percussion adds extra menace to this assured dance floor workout. AVNU is one of Maceo Plex’s most hotly-tipped acts of recent years. He is based on the East Coast of Scotland and dropped his superbly adventurous album ‘Tough To Love But Worth The Effort’ here in May 2022 and then followed it up with a collaboration with Maceo on 'Clickbait (This Ain't Hollywood)' back in July. His remix is explosive, with serrated synths flashing about the mix and distorted bass bringing extra darkness to the original. The superb 'Move' is another solid house sound with a wonky low end and swaying drums that swing low. Rising synths keep things moving while dub-wise vocals layer some Afro influence to this most characterful of tracks.

Tyler Hill again shows why he is such a hot property in house music with this latest offering.

Tyler Hill - Smooth
