Solid Grooves favourite Blackchild is the next to land on Hot Creations with the Groove Dealer EP. The three track release serves up heavy-duty club rollers, moulding Blackchild’s early influences with a contemporary flare. 

Title track Groove Dealer kicks off proceedings with a heavy sub-bass and chopy hats as melodic brass tones add the key ingredient. Siempre is next up, following suit with elevating brass notes, punchy percussion and dreamy synths. Rounding off the EP, Inmydreams is a deep and dark cut built for the late night hours, ignited by the blissful and hypnotic vocals. Blackchild reveals that "this upcoming EP on Hot Creations represents exactly what my sound is. The inspiration for these tracks come from all the old Jazz and Motown records I used to listen to growing up, with a modern Blackchild touch." 

Originally from a small island in the gulf of Naples called Ischia, Blackchild is the artist name for Italian artist Gennaro Filisdeo. Heavily influenced by his father‘s record collection, he grew up listening to Hip-Hop, RnB, Disco and old school House music. He began to produce at the age of eighteen, but it was in 2019 that Blackchild joined the Solid Grooves roster, which led him to play at statement venues and festivals such as Printworks London, Auditorium Torremolinos Malaga and ADE Festival. 2020 saw chart success with his track Sexy Thing going straight to #2 in the Beatport Top 10 Tech House Chart and #5 in the Overall Top 10 Chart. 2021 looks set to continue in the same direction with a busy release schedule on the way.

Kai Rodriguez makes his debut outing on Hot Creations, delivering his two-track ‘The Thrill’ EP. 

With his late-2021 Hottrax debut ‘Underground’, DJ/producer Kai Rodriguez gave the house scene a first glimpse  of what’s to come with the 25-year-old UK talent’s breakthrough release remaining in heavy rotation for head  honcho Jamie Jones across the Ibiza season and beyond. Having since featured on bubbling US imprint Revival  New York, he steps things up a level as he reveals his first material of 2023 and his Hot Creations debut with ‘The Thrill’.
 
“Empire of the sun have got to be up there as being one of my favourite electronic duos of all time. They  had a huge influence on the EP and it’s inception. ‘Walking on a Dream’ is one of their more popular and  classic tracks and resonates with me. 2022 was a year of successes within my musical career, and a sign  that I am on the right path towards the things I want to achieve. I wanted to amalgamate that with a piece  of music, and from this idea, ‘The Thrill’ came into fruition.  

‘Sum’ Bout’ was a track that I’d be sitting on for a while. It was one of my first tracks that had genuine  positive feedback from artists that I look up to, and felt that the sound really complimented ‘The Thrill’. I’m  glad that it’s found a good home. I’d like to thank JJ again for believing in the sound and giving me this opportunity, I’m forever grateful.” - Kai Rodriguez
  
Lead track ‘The Thrill’ harnesses the iconic vocal known across the globe but switches things up, contrasting the  vibrant tones with murky low-ends and metallic percussion for a no-nonsense cut main for main rooms, while  ‘Sum’ Bout’ takes a drum-driven path as skippy hats and warped snippets ebb and flow amongst the mix for more  peak time material.

Mon Qalamari pushes indie dance into uncharted territory on "Like Me," a track that turns eclecticism into its own form of precision. Built around a synth that conjures the ghost of a digital accordion, the production moves through rhythmic landscapes that feel familiar yet deliberately askew.

The hook—"I bet you can't do it like me"—arrives with masculine swagger that indie dance rarely attempts, supported by rhythmic ad-libs that puncture the mix at unexpected moments. Percussion drives the whole thing forward without ever settling into predictable patterns, creating space for each element to exist on its own terms.

Premiere: Josh Butler - Right Time [Solid Grooves Records]

Manchester-based producer Mason Maynard is welcomed to Hot Creations to present McLovin’, featuring two tracks of equal magnitude that display his vibrant talent. Mason’s debut release on the formidable label is set for release on 10th April.

On the flip, the spellbinding Remedy features a snaking sub-bass complemented perfectly with the powerful vocals of Ursula Rucker. “In its original form the song featured an old acapella from Ursula, but when we were put in touch with each other we knew we wanted to create something completely fresh.”

Mason Maynard has already built himself an exceptional reputation, with his groove led productions backed by some of biggest names in the business including Carl Cox, Jamie Jones, The Martinez Brothers, Green Velvet, Skream and Seth Troxler. His releases on Repopulate Mars, DFTD, Sola and Relief (where he has collaborated with Green Velvet) have been supported heavily on BBC radio. In 2019 he toured the world, with sets at EDC, Hideout, Creamfields and also across Ibiza during the summer. Praised homecoming gigs took place at Manchester’s Warehouse Project and in front of 15,000 in the Hangar at Parklife Festival. 2020 will see Mason go from strength to strength as he continues to tour the USA and announces his new FANTAZIA label. Working alongside USA electronic music heavyweights Insomniac, FANTAZIA is inspired by early acid and raving culture with a debut release dropping on 6th March.
