With three EPs and an A-Sides cut to his name, Marco Faraone has been an invaluable label contributor, dating back to his Drumcode debut in 2013. The Italian remains one of scene’s most versatile producers, a torchbearer of both house and techno and able to craft both with masterful ease. Coming off two albums in 2020, his inspired form rolls on throughout ’21, with ‘Our Freedom’, his memorable fourth EP contribution to Adam Beyer’s label.

‘Burn Down’ is an evocative vocal-led trip, made just as much for the headphones as the dancefloors of the future. Led by layers of laser-kissed riffs and a resistance-leading vocal, the title track is an emotion-charged anthem-in-the-making. ‘Orbital’ has bags of personality and pep, bringing the vibe to a more optimistic place, with a silky melody line and plenty of effortless groove. ‘Magic Sunset’ is the cream on top; the percussion pulsating and punchy, as cascades of goosebump-inducing synths unfurl beautifully throughout the six-minute jam.

Dublin DJ and producer Josh Coakley has been earning his stripes performing at clubs and festivals up and down the country, supporting everyone from Patrick Topping, Solardo and Fisher, to Michael Bibi, Route 94, Eats Everything and Alan Fitzpatrick, plus performing international shows in Holland, Gibraltar, Greece, Spain & Ibiza to name a few.

Today, however, we focus on the production element of Josh Coakley's game, as we premiere his remix of Niceteed - Nothing But Pain, which is available to pre-order today. Having already released on labels such as HOUZ, Swerve Digital, Pacha Recordings, Luxor Music, Recklas Records, Sony Music, Universal Music, Warner Music and Sleazy Deep to name a few, today Josh can add Chapeau Music to the list.

Chapeau Music is a label and event company based in Italy and the Netherlands, running parties and releasing house and techno music since 2011. During these years, they have been releasing music from both rising talents and well-known artists alike. 

Josh remixes the track 'Nothing But Pain', by Italian artist, Niceteed, which is from Niceteed's forthcoming 4 track EP, due out on June 25th. Primarily Josh is known for his tech-house style, but with this track he gets the opportunity to flex his production techniques, giving the already rawness of the original track a club-thumping makeover, primed and ready for the return of nightclubs and dance music events.

You can check out our premiere of Josh's remix via our SoundCloud page, plus support the label and purchase the full release digitally and on vinyl.

"Beautiful But Evil" is a perfect floor filler for late night DJ sets and "Dark Places" was produced for the after hours special.

"Inspiration for "Beautiful But Evil" came from a deep place of romance and love for Self Love. Self love can feel like an addiction at times. "Dark Places" was inspired by my love for the dark supernatural energies that lurk around us.

COSMIC ECHOES | Discover the Sound of a Lost Civilization

In the vast, silent depths of space, an explorer drifts through the cosmos, preserved by the timeless state of hypersleep. After what feels like centuries, his journey brings him to a distant solar system eerily reminiscent of his own. The ship's sensors indicate a planet strikingly similar to Earth—a twin world, perhaps. With cautious anticipation, he lands on the surface, surrounded by rocky deserts and ancient structures that echo the civilization he left behind. Monolithic statues, fractured yet proud, gaze into the stars, their faces carved with features uncannily human. Questions flood his mind as he traverses this ghostly terrain: Could humanity's roots extend beyond Earth? Or has he somehow fallen through a cosmic fissure, returned unknowingly to Earth’s future, long after humankind has vanished?

Each beat of this techno album pulses with the enigma of a lost civilization, capturing the mix of wonder and loneliness that swells within the explorer’s heart. It’s a tale told in bass and synth, a symphony of alien yet familiar sounds. The rhythms are hypnotic, immersive, mirroring the alien landscape with its strange familiarity, each track painting a scene of mystery, a testament to what was once vibrant life now turned to stone. The beats guide listeners through crumbling ruins, echoing with memories of lives that may have mirrored our own, and a world that once beat with its own pulse—a pulse that, in this album, is reborn.

On 16th March 2018 Germany’s esteemed DJ/producer Frank Sonic teams up with long time studio partner L-EX to deliver their debut Atlanta EP for Tube & Berger and Juliet Sikora’s illustrious Kittball Records. 

This essential two track EP follows Sonic’s previous outings on labels such as Beat Boutique, Sprout and Traum plus marks Kittball’s third EP release of the year so far, following offerings by Rob Kali and The Deepshakerz. 

The EP’s title track ‘Atlanta’ kicks things off, serving up a tight four-to-the-floor house groove, uplifting percussive and synthetic melodies, powerful bass frequencies and an abundance of intense snare rolls to great effect. The track is already proving to be a hit amongst tastemaker DJs around the world including the likes of Solomun - expect to hear this on a dancefloor near you within the spring / summer months.

Next up, the Düsseldorf-based artist provides a solo effort in the form of ‘Ozora’, which encompasses a solid house beat, mesmerising trance-esque melodic textures, lush pad sounds and distinctive horn blasts and to conclude the EP in style.
