Paris-based producer KX9000 (Kerim Ben Mustapha) crafts a vibrant fusion of electro-funk, space disco, jazz, and house. With roots in jazz-funk bands and a background in sound engineering, he brings a DIY, hands-on ethos to his music. His EPs on labels like Pont Neuf Records, LW Recordings or Apparel Music showcase a playful yet meticulous style - where vintage synths, live instruments, and city-pop textures meet club-ready grooves. Collaborations with Nic Hanson, Corsica One, and others enrich his soulful, eclectic sound. A staple of Paris clubs and European festivals, KX9000 draws inspiration from icons like Dexter Wansel and blends spontaneous jamming with refined production. His latest work, Dream Log, evokes both movement and introspection - perfect for late-night drives or packed dancefloors. A true “alchemist” of the modern French electronic scene.

Weak Become Heroes

Remixes & B-Sides

Weak Become Heroes (Royksopp's Memory Lane Mix)

The runway was set and the wind howled around the empty airport. The flight would soon depart, bringing with it the fear of god to some far away land. Camoflauge covered its metal frame, overbearing and murky. This was a plane of war and whilst its flight may bring peace, its actions would not. In the air it was a thing of beauty, a floating shape against the dark nights sky. To those on the ground it was an evil omen which would swoop from above bringing nothing but pain. Fight, the plan, fight the plane. 

Landings are to release a two track EP on Vim & Vigour. The pair have produced a record of dynamic construction, fusing a jazz style undercurrent with electronics.

PREMIERE: Landings - FTP [Vim & Vigour]

Marco Manrique and Simon Cortez, who together form Filta Freqz, showcase their versatility in their debut for DFTD, 'Master Blaster EP'. The title track 'Master Blaster' features hip-hop vocals and a swinging 4/4, accented by sax blasts and a funking bass bridge. 'Show Me', utilises a similarly direct 4/4 but is otherwise a far cry from the New York hip-hop style first track. It comes as a classic feel-good house track with soul powerhouse vocals, piano riffs and a pumping bassline. A very strong debut EP demonstrating some seriously diverse influences from the Filta Freqz duo.
