Marking his second outing on Hot Creations, OMRI. (pronounced OMRI dot) is back with ‘Release The Pressure’, a potent two-tracker that reaffirms his status as one of the most exciting and unconventional rising voices in house music. Dropping in the heart of summer, the release delivers two distinctive cuts built for dancefloor impact, showcasing the sonic versatility that’s put him on the map. Now a familiar name within the international circuit, OMRI. has carved out a unique niche with a forward-thinking style that bridges heads-down psychedelia and peak-time sonics. His last appearance on Hot Creations came via 2024’s ‘Dance All Night’, while his more recent Crosstown Rebels outing ‘Nothing Wrong’ picked up Pete Tong’s Essential New Tune on BBC Radio 1, and this return delivers yet another marker of his growing global influence.

Featuring vocals from LA-based songwriter and poet Benni Ola, lead track ‘Release The Pressure’ is a pulsating, groove-driven heater made for full-throttle moments. Crisp percussion, hooky vocals, sharp synths, and low-end pressure come together in a track that simmers with controlled intensity. On the flip, ‘Sweat’ goes deeper and darker with Ola once again featuring - hypnotic, trippy yet playful, and perfectly unhinged yet locked in for the more off-kilter corners of the night.

“‘Release the Pressure’ is about letting go, giving in to the groove. And ‘Sweat’... well, the name says it all. Two tracks made for peak-time moments, proud to drop them on Hot Creations” - OMRI. With past releases on REALM, Nervous and more, OMRI.’s sonic world continues to expand at a rapid rate. His recent dates have seen him light up renowned venues from Miami’s Club Space to Hï Ibiza, adding to landmark sets at Burning Man and Mayan Warrior in Tulum. Alongside his own output, his label Collecting Dots is quickly establishing itself with a distinctive sound and vision, while hosting curated showcases around the world. Having already joined label boss Jamie Jones at UNVRS Ibiza earlier in the season, and with a second Paradise appearance to come in September, ‘Release The Pressure’ arrives as a significant release in the midst of his biggest summer yet.

OMRI. ‘Release The Pressure’ drops via Hot Creations on 11th July 2025.

Chris Stussy - Sakura (Unreleased)

https://lnk.to/UTS25
Release date: 5th of September
Format: Vinyl + Digital

After two acclaimed releases on Up The Stuss, ‘Sense Of Future’ in 2023 and ‘Synergy’ in 2024, Across Boundaries, the collaborative project of Chris Stussy and Locklead, return with their most expansive and fully realised statement to date. Set for release on 5th September 2025, ‘Sakura’ brings an eight-track, double vinyl package oﬀering a deep dive into the duo’s evolving partnership, showcasing a sound that is as intricate and emotive as it is dancefloor-focused.

The making of the EP reflects an organic approach, with the pair taking to the Dutch wilderness for a series of weekend-long studio retreats, temporarily transforming remote natural spaces into creative sanctuaries. These escapes, surrounded by forests and wildlife, allowed the pair to step away from traditional studio environments and reconnect with the pure essence of their music. This intentional isolation sparked fresh ideas and textures, infusing the project with an expansive and reflective atmosphere - one that captures the contrast of raw nature and the precise electronic craftsmanship to capture crowds.

Musically, the eight-tracker moves fluidly between moods and rhythms, reflecting the layered creative process behind it. The title track ‘Sakura’ opens with a hypnotic groove that blooms into a textured soundscape, while 'The Funktion' rides tight, infectious, and tunnelling energy. Deeper cuts like ‘A Love Letter…’ reveal a hazy, introspective side, contrasting with the elevating energy of ‘Da Resurrection’. The EP’s range demonstrates Across Boundaries’ growing confidence in exploring diverse facets of house music, blending melody, groove, and atmosphere into a seamless journey.

This release not only marks their largest project under the Across Boundaries moniker, but also signals the maturation of a longtime musical and personal bond between its members. Longtime friends, Chris and Locklead’s collaborative process has evolved into an intuitive dialogue, where ideas flow freely and the boundaries of their sound continue to expand. This latest project is the latest chapter in this ongoing exploration; a cohesive, complete body of work that reflects their shared vision and commitment to pushing house music forward.
