In its 4th​ ​installment, JIN, the Taipei, Taiwan-based label, continues its cosmic journey with a set of tracks that simmer between peak-time dance floor and early morning afterhours vibe.

First up see's Bangkok's Siamese Twins mainstay Sunju Hargun, 1/2 of Mogambo, returning to JIN with two A-side tracks. The first, “Chale”, is a modern ode to classic trance that will leave dancefloors from Bangkok to Berlin in ecstasy. His second track-フーイズカサンドラ("Who is Kassandra'') is a post peak-time 7-minute acid bomb that spins and reverberates in every direction.
The B-side features two remixes of “Chale”. First up, (our choice) is Barcelona's wunderkind Marc Piñol, who removes the trance needle and rebuilds the track creating a perfectly dubbed-our cosmic trip between musical galaxies.

Especial is delighted to welcome Odopt back to the label, this time teaming up with Sano for a club-heavy global excursion and the vocal deep dive of Picha. A meeting of friends and collaborators across continents and years, finally presented in vocal and instrumental, as well the welcome return of label stalwart Jamie Paton with additional remix and dub to bite.

Long-time fans of Sebastian Hoyos aka Sano’s productions, seeing him release for Matias Aguayo’s Comeme and Munich’s Public Possession, Especial jumped at the chance to present Odopt’s reworkings of Sano’s oeuvre, taking vocalist’s Lolito
night-time exoticisms and offering a red-lit basement, dark room anthem.

As with all good things, time let the music ferment. The 2016 outline became a 2019 demo, first presented to the label, and emphatically embraced. With Sano returning from Barcelona to his native Columbia, replacing the world of club culture with horticulture, Odopt found their new Paris base led them to finally hit the pocket, the tribal percussion propelled by the razor-sharp snare and perfectly, more cowbell.

Who better than to request remixes than the origin of Especial, its first artist, mainstay mixer, and designer of each artwork since the label’s birth in late 2013, Jamie Paton. Having gone on to release for label peers and inspirations, ESP Institute and Multi Culti, this is a welcome return. Paton’s trademark deep dubwise is ever present, as is the exemplary programming, but now the twist of breaks in Remix form gives this EP widescreen dynamics.

The sound system stretching Dub mix rounds off, the vocals pulled back, the wobble and trembling bass, again highlight Especial’s mission, club music for the head and feet, mixing new wave with neu rave, beats with breaks, looking back but always, always moving forwards.

The great ArgenMexican Thomass Jackson returns to Playground with a tasty EP consisting of 3 original tracks and a remix by the talented Bristol boy Chez de Milo.
Fat basslines, lysergia and plenty of groove await you on this release destined to be savoured on the dancefloor.

In dawn's gentle hush, where time's whispers rush, birds in flight, a trance, nature's noise dance.
In this trance, we find our place, amidst the wonder, the boundless space, where whispers merge with nature's song, and in its depths, we truly belong. Each beat a rhythm, ancient, free, a dance of grace, for eyes to see. In the movement we find peace, in their soaring embrace, a moment, a sigh, beneath the open sky.

Five years after their inaugural release, Vilnius-based imprint Good Skills line up their first extended-player ‘Chunga Chunga‘ from production duo Deserted Island, consisting of Copenhagen-based brotherhood Lukas and Matas...Today, we are pleased to premiere Fabrizio Mammarella's version of ‘Grange‘ - a space-time blackout spanning italo-disco illusions and synth-driven EBM. Taking off with a constellation of midnight bells and post-punk rhythms, followed by psyched-out arpeggios, spiralling hi-hats and bumpy basslines culminating with a synthesized apogee at the midsection.

We have been supporting Mikkelrev music for a while, with different releases on labels such as Oh! Records or HMWL. The Swedish producer presents 'Toulouse', his new EP consisting on 2 original tracks + 2 top-tier remixes by Menshen and Istia.

Sweden has had a particular influence in Deep House sound, delivering music with a very specific taste that combines Nu Disco influences, an overall positive feeling and complex synth work rather than a more minimalistic groove. Mikkelrev definitely shows this influences, as 'Zngr' and ' Toulouse' are two melodic tracks, with vocal samplings and uplifting harmonies that will definitely bring the perfect atmosphere to your beach club DJ sets.

On the remix duties, we are so happy to welcome Menshen (half of Monitor 66 duo), who delivers an impressive reconstruction of 'Zngr' driven by a powerful bassline surrounded by beautiful synths - one for the nu-disque lovers!

Another northern-europe producer, Istia,  remixes 'Toulouse' on his own unique way of treating laid-back grooves with relaxed guitars and saxophones - don't miss this one!
