Roll up Roll up!  We have a seriously tasty package for APPIAN019 and have gone back to a Various Artist format for this one. 

Here we share 4 sets of artists that have been on our radar for some time - some new joiners to Appian and some old friends : ) We think each track stands out from their past discographies and offers something special. 

Timeless cuts to suit intimate dancefloors.

Hope you enjoy : )

OK EG - Dual Path

Naff and Animalia once again join forces to present a collaboration between OK EG and Priori. The project began with a session at the Melbourne Electronic Sound Studio, where initial sonic experiments took shape. These were later developed into four interconnected movements—each crafted to feel both weightless and propulsive. The result is four high-speed, hypnotic dance pieces, best described as ‘feather-tech.

Plug into into the euphonic world of Shoal with his debut EP for Animalia, Temporal Blend. The Utrecht based producer dives head first into the release with his mesmerisingly warm, rich & silky-smooth groove, all characteristics that define his unique take on techno.  

A yin/yang essence threads the EP together with cosy, full bodied melodies, dynamic tempos & entrancing oddities throughout. It’s this subtle & harmonious balance of flavours that make Shoal a pitch-perfect fit for the Animalia family.

Ubik @ GIMIC - 03 May 2025

Kate's debut EP 'Sprint' celebrates and cements a genre-fluid ethos with four tracks where texture and atmosphere take precedence over convention.

The EP’s opener ‘Harpan’ is a bold ambient statement, brimming with otherworldly, bell-like piano riffs, humming pads, long, gliding sweeps and sparse percussion. Written in the stillness of winter, ‘Harpan’ captures the quiet beauty of solitude and anonymity amid movement. The title track ‘Sprint’ shifts gears. A synth-surge launches the track before a slow release into breakdowns, trading the opener’s introspection for unbridled motion. ‘Hoover’ deepens the momentum with lurching rhythms, a drunken bassline, and tangled, footwork-inspired snares. Finally, ‘The Embrace’ delivers the most club-focused moment, rattling congas and panning djembes ride a punchy kick, giving way to a dramatic, techno-infused finale.

Intentional in its construction and unbound by genre, Sprint marks a powerful new chapter for Kate Miller.

No Fame - June 11th 2025

This collaboration has its roots all the way back in 2020, when the Desmond crew and DANN first started working together. What began as production work for others quickly evolved into a shared creative journey—fueled by friendship and a mutual love for music.

In November 2024 DANN hosted a writing camp on Ibiza, inviting several talented producers—including Desmond to create freely and experiment. During the very first session “everybody” was born. From the moment the track came together they knew it had something special.
Blending classic UK Garage grooves with a funky rhythm and bass-heavy drive, “everybody” hits hard in the club, but still feels right at home through your headphones. The catchy vocal gives it a familiar / hooky feel—striking the perfect balance between energy and emotion.

The track has already caught the attention of key names in the scene, including Saint Ludo, and now after some fine-tuning it’s finally ready to be shared with the world!

This is a deep dive into the abyss of unbalanced nowness.
