"TIO EP" — HIPS002 [Out on September 8]

Put your hands up for Detroit

Trips #3: India

Mumbai Syndrom

The constant evolution of music allows space for new talent to push through and emerge from the shackles of lockdown, Bailey Ibbs stands at the forefront of these artists. Bailey Ibbs is an artist who encapsulates the UK-centric sound and modern-day rave aesthetic. 
 
Exploring a melange of genres that combines contagious Techno with percussive house, aggressive breaks, and bold electro. Ibbs is a name that spans far and wide from the banks of Derbyshire to smoke-filled nightclubs across the globe. Maintaining a catalog of shapeshifting releases which have achieved appreciation from long-serving industry greats. Bailey is a producer that won't settle for pigeon-holing, as he continues to propel his productions forward through his own label imprint Night Sevice. 
 
The impending return of clubbing has drawn Ibbs onto notable line-ups at Fold, Fabric, Arsenal (Kyiv) & HIDDEN. The future is bright for this young talent & Bailey offers a burning beacon for a new wave of artists.

Marma Boog - Hypnotizing a Kookaburra (Mood Mix) (STW Premiere)

Download: https://www.beatport.com/release/a-trip-to-idyllwild-remixes/3790221
Following the brilliant album 'A Trip To Idyllwild', from electronic music producer and saxophonist, ITAI, on Camel Riders, We are thrilled to present the remix album.
On his debut album on our imprint, ITAI displayed eight tracks of hypnotizing jazzy electronic beats, Saxophone, and other live instruments, full of intriguing and mysterious melodies. On this occasion, we are thrilled to provide new reworked versions of the album's tracks by some of our favourite artists and promising talents in the electronic landscape: PheuZen, Just Emma and Urem, Zuma Dionys, Matija and RIchard Elcox, Max Tenrom, Dandara, Alvaro Suarez, Catori and Noraj Cue.

This musical tale consists of nine fascinating interpretations that some might say is more dance-floor oriented, ranging from Downtempo, and Electronica to upbeat Melodic Deep House and Techno. We hope you enjoy the re-diving to this ride, this trip, A Trip to Idyllwild.

LUXE & Tom Place are next up on Dansu Discs with their collaborative ‘Moonquake’ EP. The signature cross genre influences can be heard in the off kilter percussion, laid on top of bassy cuts, with subtle trance influences permeating throughout. A bold way to close out another year of releases on Dansu Discs.

Firm favourite, Angel D’lite is back to close off the record with her jungle filled flip of ‘Moonquake’.

Various Bangers Re-Thrashed

PREMIERE: Rebel Sketchy - Good To You (Crucial Todd Remix) [The Payback Project]

She was dancing all alone, the room was crowded but it were as if she was the only ethereal creature of note. For everyone else was not there really, at least not in the same way as she was. She was really there. An eternal body which moved and weaved between the walls long after everyone had left the club. It was as if her very spirit lived within the brickwork which made this house a home. Perhaps that is what it was, her home.

Wendy was her name but it could be anything to anyone given the time of day. For she was all things to all people - a happy smile, a guilty conscience, a careless whisper, a slow dance, a wild romance. She was a moment in time - a vision in the midst of the night only to be forgotten as the sun rose. She was everyone's ghost...

Çâline With C is set to release new music on Electrifying Impact - a raucous EBM infused record destined to bang in the small dark rooms for which it was intended for. Intricate and heavy at the same time, this one will do just fine on the floor.

PREMIERE: Çâline With C - Wendy(Venderstrooik Remix)[Electrifying Impact]

[PREMIERE] It's All About Dance - Mathew F | 39 Records [2023]

PREMIERE : Ole Mic Odd - Blown Out

He walked down the corridors and could feel the pounding feet from the amphitheatre above. Soon it would be his turn to enter the cauldron and face whatever wicked foe was put before him. He had been training long and hard for this day, preparing his body and conserving his energy so that he might rise to noble victory and seek knighthood.

This was all he had ever dreamed of and now as he prepared himself his breath was thin and shallow, his heart pacing quickly and his mind whirring with the potential and possibility that was to come.

Fearless is more, fearless was more. That was what he’d learnt whilst fighting in the pits of hell. It had all lead him to here…

DC Salas continues to enchant dancefloors with big room club bangers that rally dancers and bring enlightenment. This new EP on Semi Delicious is no different with this synth driven powerhouse of a track doing the damage already.
