Prolific house DJ and producer Thierry Tomas teams up with Belgian producer Pat Lezizmo for a two tracker on Steve Bug’s home for more reduced, hypnotic, and raw sounds, Sublease Music.

The Boy Who Recorded Birds is the title track for this release, and sees the pair collaborate on an amped up groover that instantly draws listeners (and dancers) in and keeps them locked throughout. A swinging, deep groove sets the tone, while the addition of various vocal snips, synth washes, and a funky bass keep the track moving and evolving throughout. A real treat from start to finish.

The Girl Who Drew Flowers maintains the funkiness, but boils things down to a more minimal state of affairs. The track leaves lots of space to get lost in, while carrying the vibe ever forward via clever drum programming and an infectious groove.

Deep new music on Sublease courtesy of Arkady Antsyrev. The DJ and producer pulls out the stops for this three tracker on Steve Bug’s home for deep dancefloor sounds, referencing classic Chicago and New York house sounds while adding his own, inimitable spin on things.

Know That kicks things off in a hypnotic, groove-driven style, dripping in atmosphere and crisp, chunky beats.

Rollstoys is a little more urgent, with snappy percussion and a subby bass coupled with some dubbed out effects on the vocals and synths.

Last up is Perfectly, which continues the vibe with a slinky, honed slice of deep house punctuated by shuffling percussion and more sub bass goodness in the lower end.

The ever prolific Sublease Music puts out another sublime release, this time handing the floor to combined talents of  Markus Homm, Brad Brunner and AG Swifty. 

Markus Homm is a veteran of the house and tech scene, and a regular at some of the scenes’ foundational venues such as Berghain. His collaborators might have less experience, but bring a whole new flavour to the cooking pot. 

"Connected not only through being part of the same booking agency in Romania (Cyclic), but also through the love for grooving underground  Music, we ended up in the Studio In Bukarest for a few days working on some music. This is the outcome of the session, grooving percussions with the rolling baseline and warm chords and stabs." says Homm.

The Big Con is an urgent, driving slice of stripped down house - the jittery percussion adds a tense edge to the hypnotic groove. The track maintains its energy throughout, with some nice variations and shifting melodic elements. 

Sleeping Dogs is also on the pared down vibe, beginning with a tough kick that eventually opens up into a warm, deep roller.

Danny B, a promising newcomer based in Madrid pops up on Sublease Music for three tracks of raw grooves via the Suspect EP. 

Drawing inspiration from a series of releases by German house legend Shed under the Wax moniker, Danny set to work creating these raw, underground house tracks using a Nord keyboard for the warm, analog vibes. 

The title track is a gritty basement burner - giving off pure Detroit / Berlin rave vibes. 

UK producer and DJ Gareth Cole, who just scored an underground hit with Courage on Sublease Music, offers up a remix which smooths out some of the edges to create a slinky deep house track. 

The third track is Trust - a more stripped down affair that builds into a warm and atmospheric cut with a fully dancefloor-primed groove.

New Zealand’s Dilby has been making waves for some time with his signature take on underground electronic music. 

Working within the parameters of classic house and techno, his sound is a lush amalgam of sounds - groovy, spacy and warm. 

With this release on Sublease Music Dilby flexes his skills - Under your Skin is a rolling deep bomb, with an infectious groove that’s impossible to resist.

Live Free is cut from the same cloth - a slinky, shuffling beat gradually unfurls and is augmented by a deep disco groove with tonnes of class. 

Last up is Dust and Stones - a mite harder than the previous tracks with a driving bassline and a late night basement vibe.

Followed by Doesn't Matter - a deep, grooving track with slick, dubby pads and stabs over a restless rhythm track.

Luke Hess’s remix of the same track turns the heat up to 10 with a muscular rework that re- imagines the track as something a lot tougher.

Hailing from the UK, Steve Kelley began almost 20 years ago as a DJ having played for some of the largest and respected brands in dance music. 

With his new release on Sublease Music, he dials back the years to pay respect to the originators. 

Back to The Old School is a party jam that harks back to the classic house sound of the 80s and 90s with drum rolls and thick, groove-laded loops and fun crowd noises. 

House Music is cut from the same cloth - a driving, no-nonsense beat supports a bubbling, acidic baseline before various blips, bleeps and an old school vocal add the dynamics.

Apprentis is a mysterious dutch DJ and producer with a knack for slinky, affecting electronic music that straggles the deeper end of house and elements of techno. 

This three track release on Sublease showcases a range of skills and moods. 

Concern, the title track, features a beautiful arpeggiated synth line that builds the vibe before a chugging, balearic groove sets in for the duration. 

Noseblunt is more urgent - referencing a harder techno sound while merging with a swung groove and a nice vocal sample. 

Last up is Kill People, a stripped down last night heater that hones in on a groove and keeps it locked for the dancefloor.
