As a standout and highly requested track in Maceo Plex sets over the last year, his Ellum Audio label finally releases Raxon's 'The Cage of Love,' an epic cover of trance classic 'Age of Love'. 

The original 'Age of Love' is a genre and era-defining tune. Despite its legendary status, Raxon is an artist who is more than up to the challenge of reinterpreting it for contemporary dance floors. The Egyptian-born, Barcelona-based artist is an underground mainstay with a fantastic album on Kompakt, top singles on Ellum Audio and Cocoon Recordings and gigs all over the world. He has teased this track at many of them, and it has never failed to light up the dance floor. 

'The Cage Of Love' has an all-new techno feel with a taught bassline and slapping drum funk. The lead synths are molten and futuristic, while the original's vocal adds the iconic hook. The track builds in layers, teasing and then pleasing when it finally drops as the dance floor explodes and the laser-like synths spray about the mix with a life of their own. 

The vinyl comes with extended and instrumental mixes, while digital downloads include the radio edit and extended mixes. 

This is a new high point for Raxon and a bona fide classic in the making from Ellum Audio.

Catz ‘n Dogz make a standout debut on Crosstown Rebels with two compelling new house tracks on ‘Can’t Stand’, complete with a remix from leftfield innovator Robag Wruhme.

A pairing whose renowned reputation has been built and shaped across an illustrious career, Polish duo Grzegorz Demiañczuk and Wojciech Tarañczuk, aka Catz’ n Dogz, have been serving up their own diverse and varied take on house for more than fifteen years. Founders of their own Pets Recordings imprint, in that time they have released on esteemed labels, from Diynamic to Defected, Glitterbox to Watergate and more, while playing at almost every major club and festival across the globe. Their fresh in-between sounds and knack for cooking up curious and impactful sounds have made them mainstays of the scene, and that run of stellar releases continues here with a debut appearance on Crosstown Rebels as they link with ZenSoFly for ‘Can’t Stand’ - with longstanding German favourite Robag Wruhme on remix duties.

Opener ‘Can’t Stand’ sees the pair reunite with vocalist ZenSoFly, a talent they’ve worked with on notable hits like ‘Wave.’ Her vocals bring soul and attitude over a tight, rubbery and sleazy house beat, underpinned with a heavy bassline - providing the sort of chunky cut to lock in a dancefloor and make it march in unison.
Robag Wruhme has been a Pampa label mainstay and famously curveball producer for many years with his scintillating blend of minimalism, melody and unusual sound sources. That is the case again with this remix, a dark workout that hurries along on snappy drums, detuned vocals and scuzzed up, droning synths to ensure maximum impact.

The EP is closed out with ‘Wake Up’, a widescreen and atmospheric cut packed with detail. The bassline is taught, freaky vocals echo within the mix, and synths spray about to dramatic effect, delivering another full flavour house cut with a dark soul and futuristic designs.

DL/Stream: https://Toolroom.lnk.to/TheUnknownTS

A very exciting collaboration here as 2 of the scene’s brightest shining new stars join forces! Both are enjoying huge success with massive collabs alongside the likes of Low Steppa and Matt Sassari, achieving fantastic results across Beatport and streaming platforms. 

Later in the year the boys are stepping up to the decks together for us in Miami, London, LA and Vancouver as we build them into their special B2B US tour in November. Having been die-hard Toolroom fans for many years, this record actually came about during a conversation about old Toolroom records, and how they collectively wanted to emulate that slightly progressive tech house but bring it right up to date. And they have certainly done that! 

A real peak-time dance floor moment here with insane production and a unique, intense build up that is already causing maximum mayhem!

Release Date: 2025-09-26 

With his 2024 hit ‘Sweet Escape’ still echoing across dancefloors worldwide, German DJ and producer Lexer returns to Purified Records with the deeply immersive ‘The Edge Of Everything’. 

Unfolding like a bubbling soundscape, the track layers shimmering synths over a gritty, commanding lead that immediately captures attention. Pulsing percussion builds momentum as the arrangement evolves, guiding the listener through a textured journey of hypnotic rhythms and driving intensity. Striking a perfect balance between depth and dynamic energy, ‘The Edge Of Everything’ showcases Lexer’s ability to craft productions that hold you in their grip from the very first beat until the last. With its cinematic sweep and captivating flow, the track reinforces his reputation as one of melodic techno’s most compelling storytellers. 

Renowned for infusing his music and performances with genuine soul and emotion, Lexer has carved out a distinctive space in the electronic landscape. His dedication to creating deep, melodic techno resonates on both a personal and collective level. Bringing this ethos to his DJ sets, Lexer blurs the line between artist and audience, inviting listeners into an experience defined by joy, freedom and togetherness. With each release and performance, he continues to share his evolving vision, radiating authenticity while enchanting dancefloors around the world. 

‘The Edge Of Everything’ artwork is an aerial photograph of a glacial river in Iceland taken by Jan Erik Waider. A fine art photographer based in Hamburg, Germany, Jan is known for capturing abstract landscapes of the northern latitudes. With a focus on water, ice, and intricate natural patterns, his work reveals the beauty hidden in the subtle details of the world around us.

Release Date: 2025-11-07 

Irish melodic and progressive artist Whoriskey drops a pair of new gems on Matador's mighty RUKUS label. 

This artist has made moves on Einmusika Recordings and UV Noir amongst others with his tasteful, well designed sounds. They are rich in musicality and emotion, while also nailing a hypnotic groove. 

Let Me Feel is a moody late night sound with tough drums and supple bass forming the warm undercurrent, as sci-fi synths rise up through the spine tingling and soulful vocals. Lexicon is more prickly, with sharper synth lines and pixelated textures cutting up the beats and making for an arresting peak time prog trip. 

Whoriskey shows his class again with these two immersive sounds.

Marking the 71st release, Terranova Records unveils a powerful reimagining of one of the most iconic moments in our catalogue from 2025: "Alterwess feat. Aga-Huseyn – Dawn". A track that has become a landmark in the label’s journey, Dawn now returns in [The Remixes] series — a bold and visionary collection where its original essence is reshaped, stretched, and propelled into entirely new territories. 

First to guide this sonic transformation is the Irish duo Deciduous, who breathes organic life and deep emotional textures into the track, building a remix that feels cinematic yet intimate, making a timeless jewel. 

Together, these remixes form not just a reinterpretation, but a complete evolution — one that pays homage to Alterwess’ original vision while elevating it into thrilling new dimensions. With [The Remixes], Terranova Records once again reaffirms its commitment to transcending genres and redefining soundscapes. This is Dawn — not just revisited, but reborn.

Anjunabeats Volume 14 is the latest chapter in a story spanning many years, each mix an epochal statement piece rewarding those who listen closely with an incisive take on the sounds that will define Anjuna dancefloors this year.

Sketched on the road and in their London studio, the mix album coalesced in scarce periods of calm amidst a whirlwind of giddying career highs: the band’s 2018 album ‘Common Ground’ reached #3 in the Official Billboard Album chart while an accompanying tour saw the trio travel to every corner of the globe. Above & Beyond's two label imprints, Anjunabeats and Anjunadeep, continued to grow in stature and scale at a rate that continues to defy expectations.

Joining the dots between the intimate sound of Anjunadeep and the stadium-sized productions found on Anjunabeats, Volume 14 once sees Above & Beyond craft a mesmerising journey through forward-thinking electronic music. The two disc, 34-track mix includes exclusive selections from their ever expanding Anjuna family of artists as well as original contributions from the band themselves.

Pioneering producer, DJ and Mondo Records founder Darren Tate (aka DT8 Project) returns to Anjunabeats with a new double A-side, ‘Carry On / We Are Oxygen’.

A classically trained musician with an adept approach to creating high-octane dance productions, Tate has collaborated with the likes of Boy George and Above & Beyond’s Jono Grant over the past 20 years, also becoming a sought-after remixer and film composer.

This latest pair of club stormers to emerge from his London studio continue where his previous Anjuna release ‘Cycles’ (supported by Armin van Buuren, Don Diablo, Cosmic Gate) left off, echoing nostalgic trance sensibilities whilst retaining a modern club edge.

Following the release of ‘Breathing’, the first track lifted off his debut album of the same name, Ben Böhmer returns with ‘Black Hole’, a striking collaboration with German vocalist Monolink. Characteristic of Ben’s driving melodic sound, ‘Black Hole’ shows why the Berliner has garnered support from the likes of Pete Tong and Annie Mac, booked an ‘Essential New Tune’, and amassed over 40 millions streams in his meteoric rise.

Ben's upcoming debut album ‘Breathing’, out Nov 22nd, marks the closing of a chapter in Ben’s life, the culmination of a period of heartache and recovery, and a coming of age as an artist.
