Austrian imprint @LuvShackRecords starts a new chapter in 2018 by welcoming Irish House and Techno afficionado and Misfit resident Andrew Johnston AKA @Moodtrax with his own-brand of super warm, brooding sounds to their stable. Featuring 3 originals and a remix by Berliner duo Longhair.

'Running Number' starts as a no-nonsense house track, carried by a beefy unisono bassline and a 16th note heavy drum pattern, yet it trancsends into 80s territory with the help of a deeply emotional chord progression that might just make you forget you're in a club. Longhair dig deep into that chord progression and build a melody and synth-bell infused italo-house track around it that should make this years festival crowd weep and rejoice alike.

Release Date – 25/05/2018

Perfect Illusion EP

PREMIERE - Moodtrax - Running Number (Longhair´s Luv Remix) (Luv Shack Records)

Kalsa, born Paolo Trombetta, is an Italian DJ hailing from Genoa. With an innate passion for a wide range of electronic sounds, Kalsa’s journey began with a deep love for house music. This initial passion laid the foundation for his skills, but it was his evolution toward unique rhythms, organic textures, and sophisticated electronic nuances that marked his rise in the scene.

Kalsa’s DJ sets are a testament to his broad musical vision, defined by a constant exploration of sound. His performances are deeply influenced by his love for the full spectrum of electronic music, inspired by his travels around the world, and reflect his approach to life: passionate and unrestrained.

Since 2018, Kalsa has been an integral part of the Free Soul project, where for seven years he contributed to the collective’s growth. This experience led him, in 2025, to found OFF, a new project through which he continues to explore and share his musical vision.

Kalsa, nato Paolo Trombetta, è un DJ italiano originario di Genova. Con una passione innata per una vasta gamma di sonorità elettroniche, il percorso di Kalsa è iniziato con un profondo amore per la house music. Questo amore iniziale ha posto le basi per le sue abilità, ma è stata la sua evoluzione verso ritmi unici, trame organiche e sofisticate sfumature elettroniche a segnare la sua ascesa nella scena.

I DJ set di Kalsa sono una testimonianza della sua ampia visione musicale, caratterizzata da una costante esplorazione sonora. Le sue performance sono profondamente influenzate dal suo amore per l’intero spettro della musica elettronica, ispirate dai suoi viaggi in tutto il mondo, e riflettono il suo approccio alla vita: appassionato e senza limiti.

Dal 2018, Kalsa è stato parte integrate del progetto Free Soul, dove per sette anni ha contribuito alla crescita del collettivo. Questa esperienza lo ha portato, nel 2025, a fondare OFF, un nuovo progetto in cui continua ad esplorare e condividere la sua visione musicale.
