Cody Currie & Kapote together in the studio! Delivering a 4 track EP that connects proto-disco, neo soul, Chicago house beats and jazz funk in a very spontaneous, super catchy way.
Cody, the London multi-talent musician, and Kapote, the Berlin-based creative head of Toy Tonics have a lot in common. Both come from studying jazz, knowing different instruments, having played in bands, and at the same time being DJs with a huge passion and the skill to rock thousands of people every weekend at the Toy Tonics Jams with a wild mix of different music. They have what we call THE VIBE. Soulful, catchy, intense. When they play records at a party and when they work on tracks. Both play keyboards, bass, guitar, and drums. Both sing. And both have funny nicknames that journalists gave them: Cody Currie was called “the Tom Misch of House music” and Kapote the “Wes Anderson of electronic music”. Makes us laugh but also fits well. And yes: Both are a bit crazy... like every extremely talented musician.

Following releases for the likes of Toy Tonics, Aus Music, Rhythm Section and Kitsuné Musique, Berlin/London based producer Arpy Brown drops the first EP under his own name. Having previously released under the name Athlete Whippet, Arpy is not new to the scene. His music has been supported by the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Mixmag, DJ Mag and Resident Advisor.

2024 has seen Arpy Brown take his joyful, high energy sets that combine club music’s intensity with the charm and intricacy of non-electronic, organic music, to stages across mainland Europe, the UK and as far as Australia and New Zealand. 2025 is a year of next steps for Arpy, with him launching his new live set alongside his new EP 'Fantasy' on Toy Tonics. On this EP, Arpy has truly found his voice. After having dabbled with adding his own vocals into his productions on recent records, this 4-tracker features present lead vocals by Arpy on all tracks; an element that is also key to the new live show. Kicking the year off with some debut shows in Southeast Asia, Arpy is set to return to Panorama Bar, alongside other legendary venues such as London's Village Underground and Oslo's Jaeger.

Taking a communal approach to music making, Robin co-founded Athlete Whippet together with long-term friend and collaborator Aviram Barath, who he co-ran artist collective and record label Squareglass with at the time. In line with this ethos, he's also been hosting intimate nights with DJs from far across the electronic music ecosystem since 2019. Guest sets from the likes of Seb Wildblood, Jitwam, Rebecca Vasmant, Fouk, Amy Dabbs, Hidden Spheres, Will Saul and some of the scene's brightest new talents have made for some unmissable parties in London's and Berlin's cosiest venues.

Arpy Brown's releases have also come with reworks from Ross from Friends, Baltra and Max Graef.

Arpy Brown - Fantasy (Extended Version)

Farhan Rehman returns with a fresh nu-disco jam, The Byrd, landing on See-Saw Records this May 2nd. A dancefloor-ready homage to jazz trumpet icon Donald Byrd, the track blends deep musicality with undeniable groove.

Built around a vibrant trumpet motif, The Byrd fuses chunky synth basslines, groovy Rhodes rhythms, and a soulful male vocal that urges movement. Topped off with a slick blues piano lick, the track oozes jazz-meets-disco flair, capturing Farhan’s signature blend of global influences, rhythmic flair, and genre-fluid storytelling.

From the warm-up slot to peak-time, The Byrd is a soulful, feel-good weapon for selectors looking to inject a little brass and bounce into their sets.

A-Trak, Mele, Aroop Roy, Josh Ludlow, ALOT on Toy Tonics? Yes! 
The Berlin label comes up with a heavy package of remixes for Sam Ruffillo & Kapote’s  „Robot Salsa“ EP. 
The Latin House EP by the 2 Italian producers. This stuff is the perfect floor filler for the summer of 2025. While the Afro house wave has reached its peak and is becoming a bit „tacky“ a lot of underground DJs turned into playing different styles of Latin music connected to electronic dance. And here we got Salsa and Boogaloo turned into 90ies house and indie dance. All of these will make the dancers get their hands in the air. Smiling faces and a lot of endorphins secured.
