James Hype & Major Lazer – Number 1 (Noirvolt Remix) [Hï Ibiza Remix Competition Entry]

“Own It” — the latest release on Ibiza Live Records by sergio graumann and SayWhat Music — is a driving tech house anthem made for the floor. With hypnotic grooves and peak-time energy, it’s a bold statement of confidence and freedom. Feel the rhythm, step into the moment and own it.

sergio graumann, SayWhat Music - OWN IT (Original Mix)

Coastal Cast ~ DJ Eliot

After reviving his 16-bit soul with rampantly joyful and excessively hedonistic escapades in New York, the now newly-named SONIKKU (casting off the DJ moniker of old and focussing purely on his namesake) takes refuge in the legendary high altitude temple, rising from the forest through the clouds and to a monumental blue-hued floating structure. Sky Sanctuary.

SONIKKU's warm, lilted audio recordings from time spent there tell a story of two SONIKKU's. One, a young producer, all scorched drum carnage with fruit basket plugins that betray a balearic leaning that defied their age (the B-side). Then the second SONIKKU. Pure vibes, positive waves and solid life lessons gleaned all the way from the Sky Sanctuary (A-side).

Cloud surfin, sky swimming, escapist, fantasy-sanctuary blissfulness.

GhostlyCast 70 welcomes the considered ear of Chicago producer Jason Garden. A triple threat, Garden records under the name Olin (working with labels such as Argot, Detour, and Giegling's g~~g~~~g), runs his own imprint (Boundary Monument), and serves as resident DJ and talent buyer for the acclaimed Smart Bar venue. The expansive, freeform mix reflects his approach live—as he explains:

"Over the years I have always grappled with the idea of what a mix should be. While I do enjoy the idea of carefully stitching together something thematic that I might not be able to do live, I’ve always also been a bit turned off by the idea because it feels somehow disingenuous. I get the sense that I’m telling a white lie about what it’s like to see me DJ. Conversely, my favorite part of DJing a party is the spontaneity and joy that can come from the feedback loop I share with the crowd. It’s never perfect, but it’s human and very genuine, which I love. So, while there is no dancefloor to speak of, this mix feels as true-to-life as such a thing can be: recorded without a plan, straight through, at home on a Sunday evening."

Calcium Club 'Cosmic Creeper'

Following last year's acclaimed 'Heaven Is For Quitters' album which came out on his own Blueberry Records, Brooklyn producer @faltydl aka Drew Lustman debuts on @ausmusic later this month with a wicked three-track 12" called 'Wondering Mind' that showcases his versatility.

We're premiering the wonderfully titled 'Paradox Garage', which kicks into life with rat-a-tat drums and a splintered vocal sample, before blanketing itself in a soft cloud of synths.

With another blazing number lined up in this burgeoning chain of sound (with tracks from Ray Kandinski, Anthony Fade, DOS...) @nerangrecordings have just announced their latest, 'NRNGVA004' - a six-track mini comp featuring NYC's finest J Albert, Cassettes For Kids, M44K, label staples @djwhiprsnipr & IOK, DJ Nerdiboy and @djpsychiatre. It's all due out late July according to the label... if the pressing plants aren't too busy minting some useless David Bowie reissue for 2019's RSD by then.

Earth Trax & Newborn Jr. - Old Way, New Way (STW Premiere)

This was not a company but a great beast, an overarching monster which had grown far too big for its own boots. For whom and what are we talking about here? The jungle was wild, the talons of the trees and the wild creatures which owned this realm were dangerous and out of control as the dense greenery grew and grew further and further beyond control. Soon this great jungle would own and govern everything at least so it seemed. 

Earth Boys are set to release a new album via Shall Not Fade. "Earth Tones" is forthcoming and features a deep, sun kissed assortment of tracks built for late summer nights and sun kissed beaches. It's feel good house and breaks galore.
