Volume 5 of the compilation for November featuring 4 tracks.

This release represents the pinnacle of inspiration and extraordinary musical love being knit in the melodies. 

Title track contains a monologue into riches, a comfort of abundance following the patterns into an unescapable bass-line carrying the track into a break and soulful congas while the lush signature world of Ooski hums and screams in the background. 

Dance before you listen, under the moonlight with L6, created in 5 minutes and recorded live, spontaneously giving birth to a movement of frequency even before the body detects sound. 

Check it out, the most requested track every time I was behind the decks in Hanoi, some said a total "Parisian Djoon vibe", it makes you forget what you were listening to and then brings you back to the groove in the must subtle yet non so obvious ways. 

I'm letting go, Any rode the skies and met celestial angels to decode mystical vibrations leading to a full catharsis, emotions being driven into blissful delicious melancholy, the kind that melts hearts with joyous tears and smiles in awe.

You know, lately these tapez have been inspiring me in a very spiritual way. As I digitize them these songz from the past take me 2 that time & moment again. Not 2 mention all the DJ'z I became very tight with when I had them as live guest on our then radio show on 91.5 FM WPRK, Winter Park, Orlando. Of course big propz 2 my radio partner DJ Cano, We had a blast doing these showz. Big up'z 2 all the DJ'z that came through & all the other DJ'z that sent tapez of their mixes & Record Labels around the Globe who helped me make these thingz happen. It was a lot harder back then without the internet, but so much more gratifying.
Okay, now 2 the man on 2day'z mixtape. Derrick May, 1 of Detroit Techno innovators & my fave out of the Motor-City. I remember airing this mix on our show & the phones lighting up with listeners going ballistic!!! Derrick takes us there Detroit styleee!!!

Quatorze Recordings welcomes rising underground talent Sam with his latest EP, Groove Business — a refined three-track journey through the deeper shades of minimal house, laced with subtle tech infusions.

The title track "Groove Business" sets the tone with stripped-back rhythms and a hypnotic swing, locking into a groove that’s both understated and infectious. "Groove Sahara" follows with a sun-soaked, percussive vibe, weaving organic textures into a tight, rolling structure. Closing the EP, "Arcadia" takes a more introspective turn — balancing crisp drum work with airy atmospheres and warm low-end flow.

Effortlessly blending groove-forward minimalism with a modern tech house sensibility, Groove Business is a confident and mature statement from Sam — and a perfect fit for after-hours selectors and discerning dancefloors alike.

Groove Business

Sam - Groove Business

The German minimal DJ returns to the spotlight with two hours of artfully subtle house and techno.

There's an old German proverb that goes "Der stete Tropfen höhlt den Stein." Literally, it means a constant dripping wears away the stone, but the point isn't about force but patience: slow, steady repetition can leave the deepest mark. It's an apt metaphor for the career of Kosta Athanassiadis, better known as XDB.

Active since the early '90s, first as a DJ and then producer by the decade's end, Athanassiadis has built a career less on hype than persistence. His catalogue spans labels like Dial, Metrolux and Echocord, alongside a steady trickle of EPs and remixes that have quietly cemented his reputation as one of minimal house and techno's undersung heroes.

That patience carries into his sound and production ethos. Where many of his peers embraced software upgrades and new workflows, Athanassiadis has long stuck to Cubase, a handful of trusty instruments and 30-year-old speakers he claims to have run "hundreds of thousands of tunes" through. He also still prefers to use inexpensive, straightforward gear—what matters, he insists, is not the tools but the feel. The result is a sound that’s stripped back, direct and enduring.

Lately, Athanassiadis has found himself back in focus. With minimal enjoying fresh attention, his calendar has filled, and with it a run of back-to-back sets—most often alongside PLO Man, a regular sparring partner this year. True to form, though, you won't find that his style has changed much. Over 30 years after his first gig, you can rest assured you'll still find him playing with patience, carving out long arcs rather than sharp peaks.

His RA Mix captures him in a reflective mood. Running just over two hours, RA.1003 is a hushed yet absorbing affair, moving seamlessly from the delicate atmospherics of Valentino Mora and Caldera to the machine funk of Robert Hood, Solid Gold Playaz and Marcellus Pittman. There are left turns folded into XDB's patient narrative arc, too: John Carpenter's brooding scores here, DJ Sprinkles' melancholic work with Will Long on "Acid Trax N (Acid Dog)" there.

It's the sound of a DJ who has been quietly chiseling away for three decades, and who understands the value of persistence as much as restraint.
