We are familiar with the Neo Soul singer’s work presented as Noah Slee, but who is FAHU?
This first EP brings high energy funk to the dancefloors of today. Influences of Eliza Rose, Blessed Madonna, but also Kerri Chandler and Masters at Work come together in 3 songs and 2 remixes (by Gee Lane and Arpy Brown). 
The original tracks are almost perfect: super short, uplifting and catchy. You’ll want to hear them again and again… and again.
In case you’ve been to a Toy Tonics Party last year, you might have heard one of these energetic tracks and seen how people went crazy. It’s perfect 2024 dance floor material, but you can imagine them on the radio too. Somewhere in the mix between Folamour and Armand van Helden, Chromeo, Calvin Harris and JUNGLE.
Toy Tonics signed a few new artists for 2024. 
FAHU, alias to Noah Slee, is probably the most important one. 
The vocalist has an impressive career in the Neo Soul scene. 
His biggest song DGAF reached more than 30 million plays on Spotify and as a singer he toured all over the world. 
Always creating, currently his focus is on three projects:  The high speed house project FAHU, more than prepared to shake the dance world.  His soulful journey Noah Slee which will soon release some new melodies too. And A Song For You – the Berlin based vocal ensemble he founded and directs. 
With these different projects he has been making all kinds of stages in Germany and Europe an extension of himself. 
We’re sure Noah Slee will have a massive entry into the new dance soul world in 2024. And ready for bigger steps in 2025!

It’s Italian time! Sam Ruffillo is back. Sicilian producer doing smooth Balearic disco with Italian vocals. The direction is clear: Sam Ruffillo's music brings us back into the Italian riviera and the hippy days of Ibiza in the late 1970ies. Even his way of production is similar to how the early days disco producers in Italia used to work: No samples needed. Instead a few guest musicians come to jam over Sam's beats in his Italian studio space. Guitar, bass, percussions. Sam later makes the production and added keyboard solos and put together the vibes into what is this new EP.

The girl voice comes from NINFA. It’s the classic studio story: Ninfa is a singer and DJ and friend of Sam. She was hanging at the studio while Sam was finishing these tracks. She stated to sing along... the words came up spontaneously… so they decided to record her and finally decided to keep them. The vibe was too good. Why talk English if u can do it better: in Italian! :)

This is second for Toy Tonics after his Sport House EP from last year. Sam also appeared on the solo record of Joel Holmes on Toy Tonics. Together with Kapote Modica he co-produced and made the beats on that record. Now Sam is back with this pure Italian EP. Inclusive remixes by new German artists Gome and Italian Musemeci - known to many from his fabulous Italo-trance releases on Diynamic records.

Sam Ruffillo - Danza Organica (Musumeci Remix)

Athlete Whippets productions are simply encapsulating and their first outing on House of Disco is something a little different for the label. From the first track ‘Talk About This Love’ the London/Berlin duo draw you in with dreamy pads and submerged vocals and there’s this wonderful quiet energy that holds you and you don’t want to let go.

Their second original ‘Dreams Of Being Alone’ channels that same moreish energy but with a little more enthusiasm and joy. Skittering and splashy drum programming is offset by the wonderful playfulness of that marimba-esque synth which plants your feet firmly in the sand of some lonely beach. 

Shall we talk about the remixes? First up Demuja takes ‘Dreams Of Being Alone’ and whips you off the beach and onto the dance-floor adding a tougher 4/4 approach with some punchy strings to get you swinging while keeping that marimba front and centre. 

For the second remix we have Aroop Roy tackling ‘Talk About This Love’ and as expected this versatile producer has gone his own way adding keys, baselines and just generally doing something totally new and interesting.

Renowned for cleverly fusing different musical influences into timeless contemporary jams, Athlete Whippet is headed up by Robin Paul Braum in the DJ booth and together with long-term collaborator Aviram Barath in the studio.

The Athlete Whippet remix on London To Yabaal is an instant groover. Taking the core track, Athlete Whippet manages to find space to add even more funk and bounce to an already great tune. His production expertise shines through in this track, blending new layers and sounds into the track and adding his own flair with great dynamics on the vocals. The song is still unmistakably Bondax but with Athlete Whippet’s magic on top.

It’s a beautiful thing when legends of the old house world and the most promising talents of the new scene join forces. This is exactly what happens on this Jamie 3:26 rework of Cody Currie’s ‘Money’ from his latest album ‘Lucas’. Turning Cody’s warm, organic, beautifully sung jazzy house delight into a DJ weapon of the finest caliber, Jamie tickles exactly the traits out of Cody’s incredible musicality that we are looking for on the dance floor.

Dan Shake, Kaidi Tatham, Jamie 3:26 on Toy Tonics! Yes. Toy Tonics lead artist Cody Currie released his debut album on the Berlin label last year and now here come the remixes! Pure dancefloor joy is guaranteed with this release. The names speak for themselves. And they really made effective DJ weapons out of Cody's very organic sounding, warm, soul-driven jazzy house songs. 

Cody by now doesn't need a big introduction anymore. He is one of the „hot“ names from London’s new house scene (even if he lives in Berlin) and being the only one who has made a collabo with Eliza Rose created a certain buzz not just in UK (they recorded the tracks Danger, Moves, Night Sky released on Cody's debut album Lucas).

Since the album release Cody is playing worldwide solo shows but also along with DJs such as Honey Dijon, Parcels or Myd from Ed Banger.

This EP will make his album music more accessible for dancefloors. Amazing remixes...

The mysterious COEO boys. Second outing for Toy Tonics after an intermezzo for Sccucci Manucci. 
The dudes have quite a buzz. Making a sound that because of its warmness and soulful vibe people have been putting them into the "Max Graef/Glenn Astro" - corner. But COEO have much more to say. It sounds fresh, smart and is a type of house we'd all would like to hear more in the future.

Toy Tonics’ brand-new artist ‘GUINNY’ will be dropping her debut EP this summer. The blue-haired, 24-year-old Londoner is not just a DJ & Producer, but also a soul Singer and multi-instrumentalist, playing violin, guitar & piano! She packs her DJ sets with raw, intense, euphoric energy. 

Much like her music selection on the decks, GUINNY also makes music that spans across many different styles. Bottom line: she makes dance music with soul, with her ethos being “dance music that sounds like it’s come from humans, not just machines”.

While vocally she has been compared to the likes of Roisin Murphy and Jorja Smith, her innovative use of vocal layering and production techniques, somewhat evocative of the early days of James Blake, gives GUINNY’s tracks an exciting new edge dimension. It’s modern, it’s fresh, it’s deep, and it’s full of soul.

Thing About You

FAHU - Thing About You

If you owned your very own flying train, where would you go? For us, there are far too many places to visit in just one night so we'd have to plan a cosmic road trip. Of course, provided that all the safety features were in place it's fairly safe to say that most of us would love to head to the moon, to Mars and beyond. However, once you've explored this universe - and any others that you're able to visit safe in the knowledge that you can one day return - all that leaves to be done is travel the globe in style.

We'd recommend stopping off in Bangkok, as that seems to be what all the tourists are doing nowadays. You can see all the sights as the train is parked safely above the heads of the unaware Thai masses and groups of teenage 'lads' who are on 'a bit of a big one'. The perfect soundtrack for this journey? Well, you surely should have guessed by now that it's this new beauty from @Duke-Slammer

PREMIERE: Duke Slammer - Bangkok Skytrain (Cosmic Pint Glass)

Remix by Nicolay. The original version of "Can't Turn Around" is available on the album Love In Flying Colors, out now on +FE Music.

Recording under different aliases, the Burrell Brothers were the backbone of Nu Groove Records. This New York label started in 1987 and took inspiration from Trax Records, both musically and aesthetically. This compilation compiles the absolute best of the Burrell's output and in doing so is giving us a valuable insight to the much overlooked roots of New York house music.

COEO are back on Toy Tonics! After uninterrupted touring around the globe, followed by a short creative break the guys come back with an even stronger sound. With the new EP they go more underground again. Its addressed to the clubs and night owls out there, who turn night into day and won't stop dancing! 

The sound is based on classic house patterns and includes a lot of cool saxophones, big piano stabs & rhythmic piano solos. They even go tribal, use arpeggios and switch into breakbeat heaven. The four Originals are a great next step in the COEO evolution. The unique warm, catchy atmosphere of the tracks can create that special COEO euphoria which made them a lot of fans. From Moodymann to Disclosure, Mall Grab to Kenny Dope, the list is long. 

It’s fantastic to see how popular they became over the last couple of years. The last COEO vinyl sold over 2500 copies and some of their tracks have millions of Spotify plays. It’s DJ FOOD. Pure bliss!

COEO - I Can Never Be Yours

MIMS is excited to premiere a scorching remix of "Tempted", originally by SE Australian "future jazz" collective, 30/70 Collective, reworked here by SE London-based house duo, Athlete Whippet.  Taken from a more-than-solid remix package, also featuring reworks by SAUL, Close Counters, Setwun & Maxwell Owin, out this Friday via Peckham's finest, Rhythm Section INTL.

Hazy house producers, Athlete Whippet have been championed by Scuba, Bicep, Laurent Garnier and The Black Madonna, and now join the RS ranks by way of injecting ‘Tempted’ with foot-stomping percussion and a moody electronic groove that perfectly fits Allysha Joy's vocals.

In their own words, “We’ve loved this album since the moment it dropped last year so it was a huge pleasure to get the stems and rework our favourite track from it. Every single instrumental and vocal performance is brilliant on the original, which made our lives very easy and fun - no matter how we’d reshuffle the elements, it would always sound great!"
