Reasons To Dance enters the label-sphere with its first release SUNROOM001. Kicking off with a various artist compilation, Reasons To Dance aims to provide an up-beat take on today’s forward thinking dance music. The release set its sights on the meeting point of rhythmic weirdness and uplifting sound design, without taking itself too seriously.

Dåser’s Salt Rock kicks us off with lush, syncopated pads, heavy dub tinged drums and bright sound design twisting from one ear to the other. A hard to define 140 rumbler,towing the line between playful in-your-face-ness and club heavy percussion. Dundalk native Lauerince Kapinga follows up with a synthy gem KoraKoraa’s with a triumphant arpeggiated synth line that flutters in between laidback drums, creating truly joyful dance music. Glimmerman is up next with ‘Cirlcuar South’, a tripped out percussion exercise filled with warm, textured pads.

Next up is label co-founder Fionn with the futuristic, techy leaning Pamp. Meandering low end and glitched out percussion combine in a burst of dance floor energy. St. Amp’s, Lyra Pad slows it down with a modern dancehall chugger, filled with lush 80’s inspired sound design. Safedose throws us a UKG curveball with SD001. The pairings production debut bounces along a heavily 2-step inspired beat, chock full of vocal chops nand synthy stabs. LOU takes us down a progressive wormhole with Channelling Enchantment. Eyes closed, early morning type beat. SPOOKLET finishes off strong with a Juke tipped emotional banger. SPOOKLET’s own vocals take center stage, with choir-like backing vocals and glitched out percussion rounding off the comp nicely.

New Spectrum - Kick It Like (FREE DOWNLOAD)

The electric pulse of classic techno raves surges through our veins, and with Halloween just around the corner, we've got a track perfectly suited for the season.

Inspired by the chilling ambiance of the 1989 horror classic, "Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan," we find Jason Voorhees, a character nearly impossible to refuse. In 2023, Jason makes his way to Berghain, not for mayhem, but to make a unique request for his favorite tracks. Rumor has it that even in the famously strict Berghain, they don't usually take requests, but who could possibly say no to Jason? The ensuing hilarity is a spectacle in itself.

Adding to the excitement, we're thrilled to introduce Mani Festo, who arrives with a mesmerizing techno-breaks remix guaranteed to unleash sonic mayhem on any sound system it graces.

Note: NOT a holiday track, we just love horror movies.

Kodiak - Dragon Drop (Eliphino Remix)

London-based producer Dufraine kicks off 2024 on Scuffed Recordings with three new stomping hybrid electro tracks on his Uber XL EP.

Continuing the sounds Dufraine has explored on previous solo efforts for labels like APE-X and Fantastic Voyage, and his Pleasure Corp project alongside Shawn Cartier, the Uber XL EP features three darker, harder-edged tracks taking in influences from artists like Miss Kittin and The Hacker alongside sounds inspired by UK bass, dubstep, and techno.

The EP kicks off with the four-to-the-floor aggression of ‘Wake’, driven along by a warping acid bassline. Up next is the title track, which features robotic vocal stabs and skittering synths. Closing out the EP is the most electro-influenced track of the release, ‘The Feeling’, centered around a powerful breakbeat backbone and eerie vocal sample.
