Release Info:

Clive From Accounts is finally back on Dirt Crew Recordings! After some excellent contributions and remixes for the highly acclaimed New York based “Razor-N-Tape” imprint, he graced us again with three new gems that show the great diversity in his productions. Since his first “Cooking the Books EP” in 2021 and the follow up “Pearls EP” in 2022 he has continued to build a strong following of fans, so we know for sure a lot of you have been waiting on new tracks by him.

The uplifting opener “That Rhythm” is a smooth deep house roller with chopped up dusty samples, inspired by the US and French masters but with a heavy UK sub bass added. Following up is the wonderfully crafted “Maceo”, a groovy instrumental jazz funk workout built around the genius of The JBs legends Fred Wesley and Maceo Parker. 

Closing out this new EP is the acid laden and also title track “Clive by Night”, deep and lush house music that we love him for since his first release on our label, here he’s finding joy in deep evolving repetition, it’s an ode to the 303 and Xpander. Best played at night. 

Get in these 3 new hitters from Clive now, we are looking forward to hear these played out in dark clubs and wide open fields this late summer and golden fall. Enjoy!

All tracks mastered by Salz Mastering in Cologne. 
Photography & Art by Break 3000.

3 groove heavyweights unite on this new Frappé release : Jamie 3:26, Young Pulse and Danou P are the « Mystic Freaks », taking us on a cosmic Disco House flight.

These 3 tracks are sweaty, made for dancing numbers : they are sexy, dirty and relentless, dripping with funk and disco influences; the very essence of House Music. You’ll hear disco drums, over housy drum machines, eerie sound effects surrounding groovy keyboards and vocals franctically whispering at the dancer’s ears.

Toy Tonics presents the second EP of London talent GUINNY. Singer, DJ, producer, and multi-instrumentalist. On her new EP, GUINNY has put the dance floor at the center of the music. ‘Money Don’t Love Ya’ combines deeper club rhythms with raw, edgy soulful jazz harmonies, vocal licks and proto rap. Rhythmically, this EP leans more towards Deep House; however, you also have flavors from the 80ies with arpeggiator synths, as well as organic textures using layers and layers of violins and vocals, creating a real character to the sound.

GUINNY grew up learning violin from the age of 3. She went on to teach herself piano, guitar and singing by listening to all her favorite jazz and soul voices and trying to copy them! Aretha, Eartha Kitt, Nina Simone to name a few. While vocally she has been compared to the likes of Róisín Murphy and Jorja Smith, her production techniques showcase her soulful vocals in a fresh new way. She studied production, engineering and sound design at ‘Point Blank Music School’, one of the best music production schools in the world. Diving into the DJ scene 3 years ago, GUINNY is fast becoming one of London’s most exciting underground disc jockeys, playing at some of London’s best music institutions, including Village Underground, The Jazz Cafe, The Royal Albert Hall,  XOYO. Recognized for her eclectic taste as well as her magnetic energy with the crowd. Breaking onto other scenes around Europe this year such as Paris, Milan, Lisbon, GUINNY also notably made her Berghain debut last year and was welcomed back in November for her 2nd appearance in the iconic Panorama Bar.

Following releases for the likes of Toy Tonics, Aus Music, Rhythm Section and Kitsuné Musique, Berlin/London based producer Arpy Brown drops the first EP under his own name. Having previously released under the name Athlete Whippet, Arpy is not new to the scene. His music has been supported by the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, Mixmag, DJ Mag and Resident Advisor.

2024 has seen Arpy Brown take his joyful, high energy sets that combine club music’s intensity with the charm and intricacy of non-electronic, organic music, to stages across mainland Europe, the UK and as far as Australia and New Zealand. 2025 is a year of next steps for Arpy, with him launching his new live set alongside his new EP 'Fantasy' on Toy Tonics. On this EP, Arpy has truly found his voice. After having dabbled with adding his own vocals into his productions on recent records, this 4-tracker features present lead vocals by Arpy on all tracks; an element that is also key to the new live show. Kicking the year off with some debut shows in Southeast Asia, Arpy is set to return to Panorama Bar, alongside other legendary venues such as London's Village Underground and Oslo's Jaeger.

Taking a communal approach to music making, Robin co-founded Athlete Whippet together with long-term friend and collaborator Aviram Barath, who he co-ran artist collective and record label Squareglass with at the time. In line with this ethos, he's also been hosting intimate nights with DJs from far across the electronic music ecosystem since 2019. Guest sets from the likes of Seb Wildblood, Jitwam, Rebecca Vasmant, Fouk, Amy Dabbs, Hidden Spheres, Will Saul and some of the scene's brightest new talents have made for some unmissable parties in London's and Berlin's cosiest venues.

Arpy Brown's releases have also come with reworks from Ross from Friends, Baltra and Max Graef.

Released 24.03.25

Toy Tonics does the Spanish proto Hip-House! New artist ALOT, living in New York but comes from Argentina. 26-year-old multi-instrumentalist, rapper, producer, writer and skater who moved to the big apple right after school, trying to "make it" in the hometown of Hip Hop and street culture. His sound is infected by NYC culture in the late 80ies, when early rap and the Latin Bronx culture mashed up, when old school Breakdance Music started to morph into early Dance Music and the Disco clubs were thriving. The Latinos met Afro-American culture and big new underground movements were born, which were the foundation of street style, fashion and music trends over the last years. ALOT the youngster, goes back to the origins and brings up his very own, super fresh, totally rocking proto-house rap in a Latino way. 
Toy Tonics loves ALOT, hope you do too!

Released 31.03.25
