Daniel W. Best first heard Louis Baker, a New Zealand-based soul singer, perform "Keep On" as the opening act for Fat Freddy's Drop at the Tempodrom in Berlin in 2024. He knew he wanted to create a remix package of the song. His label partner, Andre Lodemann, was also impressed when he heard the track, so he did a remix himself. DJ Philippa and Hollis P. Monroe also delivered amazing remixes. There is something for everyone here. Stay tuned for Part 2 of the remix package on Best's Friends Music, featuring remixes by Delfonic, Larse, and Gush Collective.

Louis Baker is one of New Zealand’s most compelling voices in modern soul. Hailing from Newtown, Wellington, Baker crafts timeless songs with rich vocals, honest lyricism, and deep grooves rooted in soul, R&B, and jazz. His breakout came early—selected from 4,000 global applicants to attend the Red Bull Music Academy in New York—collaborating with legends like Just Blaze, Q-Tip, and Brian Eno.

Since then, Baker has made an indelible mark with multiple APRA Silver Scroll nominations (including the standout single Back on My Feet), and a self-titled EP that hit #3 on the NZ charts. His debut album Open (2019) and follow-up EP Love Levitates (2021) drew global acclaim, amassing over 45 million Spotify streams and praise from the likes of India.Arie and Rolling Stone.

Live, he’s equally at home in intimate clubs or grand concert halls—performing with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra, touring across Europe, the UK, and Australasia, and appearing at international festivals including Sziget and Sonar. Deeply connected to his Māori roots (Ngāpuhi), Baker infuses his music with heritage, hope, and heart.

Session Victim - Make It Happen w/  Nebraska - [Delusions Of Grandeur]

First Single of Sidequests Chapter 2

"Up next we have a brand new collaborative effort with long time friend, label mate and fellow sample nerd Nebraska. Make It Happen is a dusty, slo-mo house groove featuring delicate keys, euphoric strings and that unmistakable sense of journey.  It’s just the kind of low-slung epic house they do best—intimate yet club-ready, nostalgic but never retro."

Dance 4 U (Phantom Tango)

It’s been over 10 years since the release of Gui Boratto’s breakthrough full length debut 'Chromophobia'. As to what its title suggests, he shook up the techno game with a contrast of lushly coloured minimal grooves and melody, whilst many will recall that the album included the highlight single “Beautiful Life” which became a dance floor anthem for that era. Four albums in and countless EPs and remixes under his belt, the Brazilian producer's unique savoir-faire in carving out a functional album out of diversely routed singles and features is back at it on his fifth studio LP, 'Pentagram'. Here Gui Boratto lays down a nuanced 12-track narrative that reinvigorates his signature sound into a refreshingly different perspective that feels all too familiar – including the return of “Beautiful Life” vocalist (and Gui Boratto’s wife) Luciana Villanova on the single "Overload".

Through his signature kaleidoscopic approach, Boratto delivers an album built as a far-reaching hub-and-spoke system, broadly inclusive as can be. From the opening cut, 'The Walker' - hot on the trail of Tears For Fears 'Elemental' (one of Boratto’s "favourite 80's bands") - to the hi-NRG euphoria of 'Forgotten' and its pounding tech alter ego 'Forgive Me'. "I was going into 2 different directions", Boratto says; "the typical “indie- electronic-rock” Boratto kind of production like “It’s Majik” or “Like You” and a much more techno approach." He goes on, "I decided to split them into two twin sister songs. When I play live I always put these two songs together."

The Brazilian Producer further embraces the pop-friendly essence of his past work on tracks like 'The Phoenix', featuring vocalist Nathan Berger, and 'Overload', both melding acidulous synthlines with laser-precise breaks, vox hooks and drops calibrated for extended radio and club use, although sieved through his distinctive rainbow-hued musical prism. For the symbolists out there, the album's pared-down closer '618' duration accidentally happens to equate the proportions of the said pentagram. "Coincidence?" Boratto questions, and capsulises, "not so ufanista and supporter of Brazilian neo-concretism, but I guess the brazilian sculptor Lygia Clark also inspired me a lot. Not the meaning of her sculptures, but the shape of the hinge of most of her work. I’ve wanted to transmit the scientific pentagram’s point of view. It’s not a religious kind of thing."

Whereas 'Spur' (a field-tested 808 and 909-heavy "purist track", "very, very old school" Boratto insists) and 'Alcazar' are sheer smooth-edged four-to- the-floor epics, the album also shares its lot of startling moments, such as with the John Barry'esque 'Scene 2' (with a hint of Amon Tobin, 'Easy Muffin' style, throw in) and its refined string-laden buildup, 100% fitted for a 007 opening credit sequence; or with 'Hallucination' (feat B.T.) and the further James Holden-ish title-track 'Pentagram' (think 'The Idiots Are Winning'); "one of those exercises I did when I got my Buchla modular synth" Boratto analyses, "I think I’ve used more then 30 different snares, with different delays and reverbs. The whole song is alive". And so is 'Pentagram' in its entirety: alive and definitely just as manifold and hopeful as its architectonics are the stuff of science and dreams all at once.

Hammered by Above & Beyond and Armin van Buuren on some of the biggest festival stages around the world over the last few months, ‘All In’ from Fatum, Genix, Jaytech and Judah proves sometimes you can never have too many chefs in the kitchen. 

Taking the track into new worlds, the ‘All In’ remix package sees 4 new takes from label debutants. 

Brooklyn brothers (and favourites of BBC Radio 1’s Danny Howard) Anden provide a twisted deep outing, having recently reworked Diplo and found support from the likes of Solomon and Mark Knight.

A regular contributor to the Group Therapy radio, Dutch producer Rodg channels his inner Deadmau5 for an analogue take. 

Rounding things off are a euphoric take by Declan James and Lycii under their new Parallels alias and a downtempo rework from Gemma.
