Here is another Londoner to keep an eye on! @matt-masters' newest release "Riding High" is an exemple of how deep house can be nicely crafted. It is an extract from is LP called "Never Ending Nights" soon to be available on @jimpster's label @freerangerecords

Starting with some nice drums and a smooth bassline, the track evolve into a cosmic shamanic deep house. It also has a nice subtle jazzy touch, that's really enjoyable.

Premiere - Matt Masters - Riding High

art:cast °89 | Theo Kottis

Scotsman Theo Kottis has established himself or rather his sound as a league of its own. Going back and forth between deeper and housey approaches as well as covering discoid tracks in his sets the Edinburgher elegentaly and flawlessly puts music together and overcomes the boundaries of (sub)genres with his sets. Surely Theo Kottis, who grew up between Scotland and Greece, not only has a knack for doing so when it comes to his DJ-skills but also when curating music for his own imprint Beautiful Strangers, on which he released a three tracker, Nothing To Lose, earlier this year. Aside from the Nothing To Lose EP Theo just put out his single Never on Skint and before contributed a track, Power Cut, to Permanent Vacation's sixth installment of their eponymous compilation.Theo's art:cast musically covers the initially mentioned spectrum, starting off with deep and almost broken beats he then goes into a more disco-ish direction, implementing Acid-tunes – always keeping the tension yet giving the listener short breaks to enjoy the beauty of certain pads. Maybe it's the longing for a summer with several festivals and festivities, but Kottis' set musically portrays the feeling of freedom you would enjoy on a rooftop-terrace under a blu sky before hitting the club(s) as his selection of tracks is so genuinely balanced.

*This mix pays homage to all Black Lives Matter movements around the world. From Detroit to São Paulo and all over, we firmly stand against racism in all forms. While moving your feet to this, please remember: electronic music, it's roots and it's culture are black heritage. 

Artist Info:
For the last 12 years, the way that Detroit-based DJ Pontchartrain has approached music, is centered around two things - learning and sharing. The result has been an interesting change up from the status quo of what comes out of the motor city. Heavily funk-infused and sample-laden original productions, edits and reworks that border on brand new versions of the track, and sets that string together a wide array of sounds that all center around the idea that dancing and feeling music are the main goals.

What started off as a project for edits and DJ tools has turned into a rediscovery of the roots of dance music. This shift in the last few years has pushed him into the new opportunities with some of the greatest labels in disco and house realm, and interesting achievements across the globe.

Currently he serves as A&R for one of the most prominent edits labels in the world, Whiskey Disco, and for the house subsidiary, Lovedancing. In addition to curating these two outlets and putting out his own records on them as well, in the past few years alone he has released on over a dozen labels, including Kolour LTD, Rocksteady Disco, Delusions of Grandeur, Toy-Tonics, Soul-Clap Records, Masterworks Music and more. Output has been nothing short of consistent, hitting #1 chart positions on sites such as Juno, several times.

Fresh True Romance recruit Factory Sequences channels a late summer vibe for his Spazio Segreto release. The title track boasts a lively yet nostalgic, synth-filled lead that zig zags around a balearic bassline and airy, spacious track reminiscent of blue skies and deep waves. Kvcf takes the summer feeling up a notch through its dazzling synths and glistening pads that intertwine in a kaleidoscopic sound excursion.

Italian producer and DJ prodigy Kocleo is well known for easily spinning vinyl, digital, as well as quality output on labels such as Last Night On Earth, Culprit, Integrity Records, Audiomatique etc. On his San Lorenzo EP we find three fresh gems made in True Romance style: pensive yet dance- inducing. Title track offers a gradually unfolding synth-heavy cosmic exploration, while Fase2 takes a turn into the dark lands of spiralling synths and undulating basslines. Rounding it up, Break Away brings together an ear- catching vocal lead atop well crafted percussion and dreamy pads. It’s sunset at its finest, in audio form.
