Hell Yeah is back to extract another sublime single from Michele Mininni's Pop Archetypes album, with 'Vertigo' up next alongside a remix from label favourite and downtempo king Calm.

Italian leftfield wizard Mininni has released on the likes of R&S, Optimo Trax and Internasjonal, but on his debut album, he mixed up a new palette of broken beats, worldly rhythms, jazz, and live drums into a diverse and multicultural trip.

At the heart of it is the gorgeous 'Vertigo', a heavenly interlude of shimmering wordless vocals, yearning melodies and widescreen design with gentle synth notes bringing the movement. Calm is a label favourite who has remixed and released albums and EPs here many times before. He elevates the track by layering in a languid dub rhythm and synths that swirl around the groove while the choral vocals bring blissful feels.

Once the Pop Archetypes mixes are finished, stay tuned for a special 10” follow-up called Not Archetypes.

Michele Mininni - Vertigo (Calm Remix)

At our very first ticketed evening of Orange Room (19 July 2025), held at the beloved Gut Level in Sheffield, I played to a sweaty dancefloor full of the best people I'll ever know. The energy, love and support that I felt from you had me fighting back tears at the end. Thanks for coming, for dancing, and for giving me the best birthday I've ever had. Here's to 35. X

It’s been a lil while since we released our EP Losing Perspective on Optimo Music, and just before we share some very exciting news with you, we want to look back and share a video created by Mihály Podobni for one of our favorite tracks from that EP - All Diving Lucid Blue.
The video was created entirely with analog video techniques, combining no-input and camera feedback using ’90s video mixers. Signals loop back into themselves to form ever-shifting, fluid imagery: no external footage, only synthesized visuals generated within the video system. Inspired by the track’s spacey, melancholic yet futuristic atmosphere, it reflects Mihály’s vision of a cosmonaut’s heimweh: drifting in nostalgia, recalling the endless blues of Earth – its skies, clouds, waters, and the planet itself.

We’d like to dedicate this video to Keith McIvor (JD Twitch) / Optimo Espacio. Your vision and passion have inspired us long before we joined the Optimo Music family. You are a compass for so many of us – thank you 💙

Gerd Janson B2B Optimo - RBMA & As You Like It (Full Recording)

As You Like It is the result of a shared taste for quality electronic music, late-night experiences, and creative expression, rooted in the underground and branching out to new heights.

As You Like It Recordings, an imprint of As You Like It SF, fosters and amplifies the diverse Bay Area artist community, releasing cutting-edge sounds through a multifaceted collaborative platform that strives for timelessness.

Even before the mythology of the cowboy in the American "wild west" became popularized, Hawaiian cowboys (paniolo) were wrangling longhorn cattle on Hawaiʻi Island.

DJ El Niño, affectionately known as "El Niño," is a DJ like no other, not only because of his unique skills and trajectory but also because of his tremendous knowledge of the world's music catalog. He was raised in the Bronx by his parents, from the Dominican Republic, a country known for its cultural foothold of hot Latin sounds. El Niño discovered his love and connection with music at a very early age. His vast exposure to different genres and sounds allowed him to embrace other cultures, which was instrumental in harvesting an eclectic source of influences. Alongside musicianship, El Niño's positive attitude and resilience have led him to perform at some of the world's top venues. He continues to innovate and maintain an impeccable reputation delivering timeless performances at renowned venues such as Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Casinos in the US and Estadio Pascual Guerrero in Colombia, Where he performed for crowds in excess of 50,000.

As the music industry continues to evolve and Latin urban music continues to overtake the throne as the number one genre in the world, El Niño continues to cultivate the DJ culture by maintaining on course with his mission of creating memorable and epic moments via his music.

"If you didn't know, Hell Yeah is the Italian label hell-bent on releasing the best modern disco(ish) you can find. Sometimes it's blissed out and Balearic, sometimes it's squelchy and down-right weird and sometimes it's the sort of elongated, tribal stuff that works dancefloors into a salacious frenzy" (Kristan J Caryl - DJ MAG January 2014)


Hell Yeah Recordings, a descendent of leading Italian dance label Mantra Vibes is an Italian-based electronic music label active since 2006. Releasing from Ferrara, Bologna, and Amsterdam and led by Marco Gallerani “peeDoo” (A&R), the label bases its philosophy on a diversity of artists and recording experiences tied together by a common vision of what defines quality progressive recording. 

With a sound as diverse as the artists it represents, Hell Yeah does not limit itself to the constraints of genre but packs a complex palette of sounds ranging from techno to minimal-nu-rave to electro-funk and tech house.  Artists as varied as Radio Slave, Santos, Umek, Oliver Koletzki, Congorock, 3iO, Crimea X and the mighty Balearic Gabba Sound System have helped establish Hell Yeah’s eclectic sound, a distinct take on party music loaded with a sonic Balearic feel good vibe that has made press around the world hail Hell Yeah as a label to watch, always

Hell Yeah aims to build upon its current reputation as a leading Italian Electronic Music play, overseeing the release of a series of progressive productions that straddle genres, defy conventions and blur barriers between listening and dance music. Stemming from Hell Yeah’s initial graphic identity formed by Neverending’s Rocco “the Boghe” Pezzella, new mind-bending web and label artworks from Italian artist Andrea Amaducci and the Berlin-based Ice Cream For Free collective promises complete visual as well as aural stimulation.
