The three tracks for this EP are lovingly crafted using his collection of vintage drum machines, samplers and expansive modular setup, and are presented in both stereo and Dolby Atmos. Opener 'havin it' is quick-stepping, low slung house cut lit up with glistening chords and gorgeous soul samples that shine through next to low-key but euphoric 90s trance progressions. It makes you feel warm and fuzzy inside while remaining locked to the groove. 'lush' is just that, with summery harp strums shimmering across dusty and speedy deep house drums that sweep you up and fill your heart with hope and joy. It's a richly layered sound with a curiousness that truly enchants. Lastly, 'WNE' straightens your back with upright and snappy drums, woody percussion and frayed edged chords that have a cosy nostalgic glow. Coated in a lo-fi haze, plunging bass and aching vocal fragments pull you in different directions as you hurry to keep up with the frisky groove.

Japanese Techno pioneer Ken Ishii returns to Radio Slave’s Rekids Special Projects with the ‘Autopilot’ EP, arriving 22nd August 2025. It follows his first appearance on the label in 2023, where he collaborated with Dutch duo Kamara on the ‘Powerplay’ single.

‘Autopilot’ kicks oﬀ with an unsuspecting, rolling groove while playful synths sneak up and bounce oﬀ its rhythm. The trip continues with ‘Sunset Flight’, lush chords washing over deep, subby low-end, rising high before delving back into the background while delicious percs play between its pounding kick drums. Closer ‘Grid Bounce’ then returns to mischief, machine-like sequences tumbling over an unrelenting beat, excellently building pressure for maximum dancefloor wonk.

“With this EP, I wanted to combine the funky and happy side of my music with driving techno elements. The EP and track titles were inspired when I was on a long-haul flight. So happy to release these three tracks in one EP.”
– Ken Ishii

DJ and producer Ken Ishii is one of the founding artists behind the Japanese Techno scene, he debuted on R&S Records in 1993 and quickly rose to global acclaim, releasing on labels like Harthouse, Exceptional, and now Rekids’ RSPX oﬀshoot, while collaborating with artists like Jeﬀ Mills, who remixed Ishii’s 2019 ‘MOBÏUS STRIP’ album on U/M/A/A.

He is also the founder of the 70 Drums label, co-brewer of KIKK IPA, worked on theme songs for the 1998 Winter Olympics and the Japanese government for the 2005 World Expo, and continues to innovate through projects ranging from video game and anime soundtracks to collaborations with Jazz artists.

Ken Ishii - AutoPilot

A quietly vital presence in Italy’s underground electronic scene, Nicola Penna — better 
known under a constellation of aliases including Future Jazz Ensemble, Nico Disco, and 
Nasty Boy — returns with a new chapter under his NBI moniker: Alphawaves, a four-track EP 
of introspective, deeply musical club material on Burnin Music. 
Drawing on the dreamlike textures of early Italian deep house and the emotive pulse of 
Larry Heard’s productions, Alphawaves is an ode to mood and movement. Each track feels 
spiritually guided — a reflection of Penna’s rare craftsmanship as a multi-instrumentalist, 
and a welcome deviation from over-quantized electronic music. 
These aren’t just club tracks; they are meditations in rhythm. Opening with lush pads, loose 
percussion, and warm basslines that recall the golden age of Italian Dream House, the EP 
also carries a timeless, soulful energy found in Penna’s previous work for labels like Sähkö, 
Native Tongue, and Ten Lovers Music. The tracks unfold patiently, inviting dancers and 
listeners alike into a space that feels both intimate and cosmic. 
Despite a discography that spans over a decade and several underground classics, Penna 
remains something of a well-kept secret. Alphawaves is a perfect entry point into his world 
— understated yet powerful, rich in detail, and impossible to pin down. At once nostalgic 
and futuristic, this is house music with a human touch. 
Essential listening for fans of Larry Heard, Don Carlos, or anything that blurs the lines 
between ambient, jazz, and deep house.

Anchored by a hypnotic acid bassline, layered with dubby textures and shimmering, emotive tones, it captures that elusive moment when the dancefloor dissolves into pure euphoria.
As Secret Factory’s first appearance on their own sublabel, Aura Euphoria is a statement piece: deep, cinematic, and made for those who crave immersion over instant gratification.
Lose yourself in the Aura.

Paris-based composer and producer Baptiste Lagrave unveils the next part of his BREAKUP EP — a project that merges the emotional intensity of romantic rupture with hypnotic, driving club energy.

Systematic Recordings is back with more techno brilliance from main man Marc Romboy in collaboration with Rafael Cerato & Astrid James.

Romboy is a long-standing figure in electronic music who blends deep, melodic techno with analogue warmth and emotional depth. Rafael Cerato also brings a powerful fusion of techno, house, and cinematic soundscapes and Astrid James is one of France's most exciting talents with a darker, rolling sound.

Down For Business is packed with attitude thanks to the vocal - a spoken word monologue on artistry. It rides on chunky and rubbery drums with old school percussion and zippy synths that light it up with future energy

04 Murphy Jax - Time To Bump

Turbo Recordings was founded by Tiga in Montreal back in 1998. In addition to launching his own career, the label has been integral in the success of acts like Chromeo, Gesaffelstein, Duke Dumont and most recently, ANNA & Charlotte de Witte. Core talent includes ZZT (Tiga's collaboration with Zombie Nation), Jori Hulkkonen, BETON, Clouds, Harvard Bass, Pilo, Shaded, Dimitri Veimar and a host of new young producers in genres ranging from pure techno, electro, and house to pop. The list of artists who have released music on the label is a veritable 'who's who' of top-level talent spanning a broad musical range, and this, along with a commitment to beautiful design, has earned the label respect in the industry and a cult following among fans. 

“We started out singing into plastic bags and shipping them to stores as quickly as possible. Later, we discovered that vinyl sounds way better when delivered by kayak. I learned so much the first few years…Now, as I look towards the future, I can envision music for poor people, sonic odors for the hearing impaired, even MP3s for women....Vroom, sucka!” says Tiga, the lyrical lampsman lighting the way down Dance Avenue.
