The night was in full swing; limbs moving and arms flailing wildly beneath the flashing lights. We'd been looking for somewhere special all night but no where seemed to keep us locked in. But here, things were different. The music was on point, the crowd were welcoming... So far everything had slotted into place. Tonight’s gonna be a good one, there was something in the air. Can't jinx it though, we’ll see how it plays out...

Making a return to their regular home of 90's Wax, Milanese duo Younger Than Me team up with Digitalo Enterprises boss Skatebard to pay homage to decades past. 'Lastens Badehus' is taken off the duo's forthcoming EP on the Tusk Wax sub-label; four club-ready tracks that celebrate the 90s sounds they've become known for.

Belgium via France, Emilio van Rijsel delivers four atmospheric Italo Disco gems with a hot analog remix from Claptrap boss Vanity Project for his forthcoming release on the British label XXX, managed by REES. Resident DJ at Welcome To My Flat, Emilio has always been keen on electronic music since he was a little kid thanks to his dad's collection of New Wave and 80's Electronica, besides being fascinated by Soul and Funk Music on his mother's side. It was only a matter of time until Emilio grew fond of House Music. 

As he joined the Welcome To My Flat Collective in 2013 to help out in its development, he started playing and mixing at smaller events and parties. Through the years, as he improved and the collective grew, he has played in several venues such as Magazine Club, Gare Saint Sauveur, B-Floor, Aeronef, Les Halles de la Filature etc. and was booked to play in some major events such as N.A.M.E Festival, Les Nuits de la Filature, Soundlux, Lille3000, and Run Deep Festival. Now he makes his debut as a producer with inspirations from all the genres House Music has to offer.

The track we chose to premiere, “Warme Wafels”, brings Italo Disco at its best. The characteristic elements of the beloved genre – the throbbing bassline, the arpeggiated synth layers, the upbeat percussion – are there. The only thing missing is the cheese: No catchy pop lyrics to make us sing along like if there was no tomorrow was added. But maybe it is for the best: Emilio's hot waffles would not pair well with the dairy delicacy, in our humble opinion.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Bandcamp page of the label: https://paradisorecords.bandcamp.com/

Mostly known for his works with the Ears on Earth label and BF Treatment duo, JAI does what he usually does best on his edit of Magic Fly; Mixing up ravey 90’s sounds with a modern twist. Lau Tropico then proceeds with his take on Djulu, that eases us for the heavier load coming in later. Aaron Maple do his usual magic that we’ve all been accustomed to with his edit of This Is A Sound. A sure-fire party starter that’ll make even the most modest guest make this feet do a 1-2 step. Ramin and Reda continues on, where Aaron left us, with their heavily middle-eastern inspired Dehati and guides us for our final number by the man behind the operation; Miro-Benji. The release ends with, in his own words, an “anti-edit” of Love Will Tear Us Apart. One of those tracks that is perfect as an ender but still leaves the listener urging for more.
