GALLO. - Pietre's Dance (connected 150)
Release Date Oct 4th

GALLO. heads up the TOTHEM music events in Paris, where he champions a broad musical style. His own cuts are just as diverse and blend energetic rhythms with melancholic synths inspired by world music, techno, house, rock and hip-hop. This new outing on connected strikes another perfect balance and is a fitting EP to mark the monumental milestone of 150 releases.
The magical 'Pietre’s Dance' kicks things off with spine-tingling grooves embellished with spiritual chords and organic percussion. The lively drums and synth work will amp up any party while the spoken words add a conscious element that takes things to the next level. Things get even deeper on 'The Last Queen' with its bluesy acoustic guitar bringing pained emotions. Afro drums power things along beneath the dramatic minor chords and empowering female vocals which will leave crowds in awe.
GALLO.s' Pietre’s Dance EP comes on Connected on October 4th 2024.

Da Mike & Lazarusman - The Thing Remixes (connected 152)
Release Date Dec 13th


Afro house pioneers Da Mike & Lazarusman's original landed on this label back in 2019 and made a big impact. It was an instant classic in the Afro house scene thanks to its irresistible groove with deep, ephemeral lyrics musing on the meaning and whereabouts of 'The Thing'.
First to remix is Manoo, who had a big summer playing the likes of Black Coffee's residency at Hï Ibiza. His version comes with additional music by Bacanito and is eight spine-tinging minutes of deep Afro-house intensity. The synths are stark and futuristic, the spoken words are menacing, and the whole track is always on the move with a rising sense of tension.
Then comes Berlin-based JAMIIE, who brings African-inspired sounds to house music on labels like Watergate. Her rendition features loose drums, deft melodies and widescreen cosmic atmospheres that have you gazing on in awe next to the tender piano chords. Last but not least, the MANQO Remix has already had support from the likes of Adam Port and &ME from Keinemusik. It's a rolling groove with subtle feelings of celebration in the keys, a hypnotic bassline and angelic vocal sounds.

Da Mike & Lazarusman - The Thing Remixes (connected 152) Release Date Dec 13th

Greek artist Da Mike, a pioneering force in Afro house and a regular on this label, is known for crafting magical sounds
that frequently climb the digital charts. For this release, he joins forces with South African talent Deep Aztec, a key figure
in shaping his local scene and now a globally touring artist.
Their superb collaboration, Caught In Silence, blends soulful male vocals with sleek synths, organic drums, and
shimmering chords, delivering a futuristic yet emotionally rich sound. Henrik Schwarz, a globally acclaimed house star
known for blending classical touches with deep, emotional beats on labels like Mule Musiq, Defected, and DGTL,
delivers two captivating remixes. The first is a stripped-back, elastic deep house groove with subtle percussion and
rising pads that hypnotise the listener. His High Low Remix brings a warm, Balearic vibe, with romantic strings and rich
layers of synth to create a perfect sunset atmosphere alongside the lush vocals.
Da Mike, Deep Aztec's 'Caught In Silence' is set to release on Connected on June 20th, 2025.

KLOUDs is comprised of Ukrainian-born Sam Levin (aka Zullah) and Israel's Itay Menashe (aka Fistuk), who came
together last year over a shared love of electronic music. They first met on a Sound Engineering program at Yoav Gera
Sound School and have since blended their love of fresh rhythms and emotional soundscapes into a new style that
draws inspiration from tribal grooves to raw percussion, hip-hop drums to soulful trance, all with a firm focus on the
dancefloor.
The fantastic 'Palm' brings all-new style to Afro house with a mid-tempo groove infused with warm, soulful chords and
organic percussion. The bold bassline rides up and down, and atmospheric, wordless vocals add a unique edge to this
playful yet emotive track.
'Côte D'Ivoire' is just as cultured, this time with Afro percussion bringing an exotic edge to the
big kicks. It's a sun-drenched sound with majestic melodies that light things up in a heartwarming style.
KLOUDs’s 'Palm EP' comes on Connected on August 8th 2025.
