Jonathan Cowan is an OG of the scene Stateside, particularly in his native Florida, where he gave a certain Dave Seaman his first US residency back in 1998, and to this day remains a kingpin of that week in March when the dance music cognoscenti descend upon Miami.

With these two transatlantic amigos and like-minded souls having been (ahem) brothers in rhythm for nigh on three decades now, it was only right & proper that some of JC’s studio excursions would find their way to Selador. And so it was. The achingly beautiful ‘Alden’s Groove’ was first, debuting on our Sweet Sixteenth Showcase in 2022, and then followed by ‘Swaddles’ which graced our Seventeenth Instalment in 2023. At the time we described it as “tip top electronic headfuckery”, and some two years on, we ain’t changed our minds.

So naturally we’re pleased as proverbial punch to now unveil a brand-new double-header from JC.

‘Slater’ is first up, as clever as it is insanely catchy. It wears several 90s influences proudly on its sleeve (think ‘French Kiss’ meets Desert’s seminal ‘Moods’ and you’re part way there), while wrapping everything up in a warm 2025 blanket of sound. Listen now, thank us slater ;)

On the flipside, ‘Sawyer’ kicks off with a pure 80s Chicago bassline riding that Windy City wave, before Moroder-esque wonktastic riffage joins the fray and takes hold of the dance floor. So high indeed.

Tried and tested by both Messrs Seaman & Parry, these two meticulously crafted gems have been staples of their sets for the past few months but don’t just take our word for it, judge for yourselves.

Lonya feat SNYL – Ultimate Sin / Synthetic Dreams - Selador
Early support from Cristoph, AFFKT, Gai Barone, Anthony Pappa, BOg, Kasey Taylor

It’s become a bit of a tradition down Selador way that our much-loved Showcase releases produce break out tracks that generate a right old buzz and get a stand-alone release. And lo, it’s Lonya’s turn to join that select company.

‘Ultimate Sin’ first saw the light of day on the mixed version of our Showcase 20 release, premiered by a somewhat excited Dave Seaman & Anthony Pappa. Instantly turning heads and leading to oodles of “when can I get my hands on that beauty?” messages pinging their way to HQ, rather than release it on one of the subsequent unmixed EPs, we challenged Lonya to give us another track of equal stature to create a dynamite double header.

Not only did he do just that, but he only went and roped in his pal SNYL. The resulting collab ‘Synthetic Dreams’ is a propulsive, acid-peppered call to dancefloor action. The very definition of heads down, let’s go business as a mesmeric vocal wail sits atop an hypnotic groove that just doesn’t let go. Synthetic by name, but as real as electronic music gets in nature.

And ‘Ultimate Sin’? All we can say is, if you’re familiar with Dave and Anthony’s mix, you know what’s coming, and will be suitably bubbling over with anticipation. And if not…well folks, a sonic treat awaits. Just let the riff draw you in, pull you all over the shop, and take up residence in your twisted but oh so grateful cranium. Masterful.

Spring'25 Promo Mix

Cortona, the alias of UK/Italy-based producer Enzo, channels decades of eclectic listening into atmospheric, groove-heavy club tracks. A formative night seeing Primal Scream with Andrew Weatherall lit the fuse for his dive into electronic music, eventually leading him to become a founding proponent of Plastic Fantastic—one of the scene’s most influential progressive house labels. That legacy pulses through Cortona’s work, with his recent releases finding homes on imprints ranging from Bedrock to Music To Die For.

On this Balance Selections, Cortona balances analog nostalgia with modern fluidity. Featuring tracks from Mike Rish, Jamie Stevens, and Hermanez, this nearly three-hour mix leans into nocturnal energy to deliver a vintage progressive punch, weaving deep builds and emotive peaks into a seamless late-night journey.

TRACKLIST & INTERVIEW

Résidence 005 - Hicky & Kalo @ Stereo Montreal (All Night Long, May 24th, 2025)

Just got back from an unforgettable tour through Argentina and honestly, I’m still buzzing. Thank you to everyone who came out and made each night so special. Here’s a live recording from my night in Rosario, always one of my favourite cities to play.

Alex O'Rion - Live from Sunset Rosario [18/05/25]

Dutch veteran producer Namatjira marks a strong return to the 90watts label with a compelling double A-side release featuring 'Cala Conta' and 'Yalanchi'.

Following closely on the heels of his well-received remix of Mike Kohl's 'Home', this release continues to showcase his evolving sound. A fixture in the progressive house scene for nearly two decades, Namatjira has recently embraced a more organic house approach, blending earthy textures with his signature floating melodies and progressive grooves. Cala Conta and Yalanchi capture this renewed direction; elegant, deep, and effortlessly immersive.
