Liu Bei - Atlas World (Solomun Day  Remix)

Amsterdam natives Maarten Smeets and Lars Dales, aka Dam Swindle, unveil their third long-player with the release of a new track, the first to be shared from the upcoming album, ‘Open’ - out on 30 May 2025 via Heist Recordings.

The new album sees the acclaimed duo dive far beyond the deep sonic waters they’re most known for, exploring lower tempos, synthwave, hip-house, and ambient across fourteen tracks. With a gestation period that traces back several years, ‘Open’ is their most intimate and personal body of work thus far, birthed during a time of self-reflection away from touring and personal transformation as individuals.

“We felt the need to tell a very personal story through our music as a translation of our personal development in the past years. We also wanted to make music without a specific goal in mind; We simply wanted to create. By taking away the grid of dance music and any expectations of what a Dam Swindle song should sound like, the creativity started to flow naturally with songs in many different styles and tempos. The result is an album that feels refreshing and uplifting and still very much true to the heart and soul of our sound.” - Dam Swindle, January 2025.

While the trademark Dam Swindle four-to-the-floor beats are still ever-present on tracks like ‘The Present Is Always Perfect’, ‘I Need You’, and ‘Is This Love?’, it’s the gentle waves of synths on opener ‘Home’, the contemplative piano chords of ‘Bloom’ featuring Joep Beving, and the lo-fi ambience of ‘It’s Okay, I Can Wait’ that showcase a melancholic, ethereal sensibility previously uncharted by the duo. Collaborations with vocalists such as NYC’s Haile Supreme on ‘Not Enough’ and Neo-soul singer Faye Meana on ‘Girl’ expertly find room in between the dancefloor and home listening sessions, and a clear standout on the LP is the title cut where message-heavy rapped vocals from UK artist Samson ebb and flow amongst iridescent grooves.

Under the helm of Maarten and Lars’ adept A&R, their Heist imprint has become a beloved home for house heads of both schools old and new, platforming some of dance music’s biggest names from Cinthie to DJ Sneak as well as the musical dawnings of artists such as Kassian and Makèz. The Dam Swindle alias has achieved house music royalty-like status across a storied 15-year career that includes two critically lauded full-lengths, collaborations with the likes of Tom Misch and Kerri Chandler, and a globetrotting touring schedule. This album stands as their most profoundly personal work of art to date, and they can’t wait to share it with you.

Closer

San Francisco veteran producers and champions of sound Romanowski and DJ Smash team up with NYCT’s Midnight Lab Band to a deliver a killer double-sided dose of Studio 2 versions. Originally released on Romanowski’s appropriately titled LP, The Return Of Steady Rocking: Romanowski & Friends, these two exclusive mixes take the skanking original in two divergent directions. When Romanowski meets DJ Smash, the drums collide at maximum force with a classic boom-bap downtempo beat echoing the heyday of the acid jazz era these two heavyweights helped invent. When Romanowski meets Midnight Lab Band, the beat floats into MLB's comfort zone of drum machine-fueled space age hypnosis. Pressed on opaque white vinyl and housed in an exquisite premium package illustrated by cartoonist Gideon Virgadamo, the single is a perfect capsule of the crew’s unique vibes and personality.

quintessentials 96: ralph session feat. juliet mendoza - mad deep (incl. jerome sydenham remix)
out on 12" and digital mid june.

Quintessentials welcomes back Ralph Session, whose previous drop ‘For The House Heads’ is still turning in crates and sets worldwide. This time, he dives into peak deep territory with 'Mad Deep'. The name says it all. It’s a masterclass in heavy yet soulful, hypnotic House. Reuniting with LA’s rising star Juliet Mendoza after their much-loved collaboration on Freerange Records last year. Her sultry voice and commanding presence just brings the title track to life. If that wasn’t enough, we are so excited to include a masterful remix from House music legend Jerome Sydenham!  It’s dense, rhythmic, and uncompromising cool. Finally, 'Sway' closes the Ep with a late-night super sweet yet driving House tune that stays true to the underground spirit. Built for selectors, dancers, and true Deep House heads heavy rotation is guaranteed. There’s deep and then there’s Mad Deep!

Artist: Demarkus Lewis 
Track: Cold Heart 
Release title: Love Still Lives EP
Label: Vibe Me To The Moon
Release date: 27-Jun-25

Seasoned house favourite Demarkus Lewis lands on the ever more vital Vibe Me To The Moon Records

The US mainstay drops a trio of buttery deep house delights

Demarkus Lewis has been a real voice in the house world for more than 25 years. His music has come on influential staples like Large Music, King Street and Nervous, as well as his own Grin Music, Grin Traxx and Grin & Bass. He's a versatile artist with an authentic style, whether making tech, jack, deep or Afro-inspired sounds, and for that reason continues to DJ celebrated clubs across the US and Europe on a regular basis. This time out he gets deep and seductive on Nightsteppaz's sophisticated Vibe Me To The Moon Records.  

'Cold Heart' is a silky smooth groove, stripped back to the essentials but beautifully warm. The smeared chords make that so, while hooky motifs and twinkling pads bring a musicality that is all too rare. The icing on the cake is a smouldering r&b vocal that's aloof and magnetic. Slow-burn gem 'Love Still Lives' oozes late-night romance. The bubbly bassline nudges the groove forward with subtle swing that nods to classic US garage and a vocal that's equal parts tender and intoxicating. The whole thing is wrapped in syrupy pads that melt into the mix for after-dark love-ins.‘ Closer Touch My Love’ is another mood-soaked house cut for cosy corners and close company. Gentle, skipping drums create a soft, swaying rhythm as splashy cymbals shimmer like candlelight and a cooing neo-soul vocal whispers sweet nothings. 

These are the kind of love-up deep house tracks that quietly wrap around you and make the real world fade away.
