Damian Lazarus’ Rebellion label celebrates its 100th release with Francesca Lombardo’s fourtrack EP ‘Synthesize’.

Since launching in 2011, Crosstown Rebels’ sub-label Rebellion has consistently served as a platform for introducing emerging talents and more established talent to the house and techno realm, playing a pivotal part in the careers of rising stars and international names. As the label prepares for its landmark 100th
release, Francesca Lombardo brings her vibrant sound spanning an impressive back-catalogue of music on esteemed labels like Ovum, Crosstown Rebels, Mobilee, and her own Echoe and Echolette imprints, among others. Known for her distinctive blend of dreamy soundscapes, stirring melodies and hypnotic rhythms, Lombardo now impresses with her rich four-track EP ‘Synthesize’.

"Leading the release is ‘Synthesize’, delivering a symphony of ethereal synth tones, crisp beats and cosmic bleeps, creating pure dancefloor hypnotism. The alternative version adds moodier textures with dense pads and female echoes working in harmony, while ‘Another Spin Around The Sun’ lives up to its title, featuring spiralling galactic chimes that evolve alongside sharp percussive elements. Closing out the release, ‘Through The dow’ draws melodic and transcendental sounds, once again spotlighting Lombardo’s futuristic mastery."

Alex Medina Alex previously released on COD3 QR (Laurent Garniers label), Innervisions, Watergate, TAU, Diynamic and many more.
For Exploited Club, Alex Medina rolls out 'Ayy Paapi'; a truly singular soundclash that bumps like House and glistens like an Italo whilst also exuding the moxie of Reggaeton. 

Being Spanish born, Medina sought to incorporate his mother tongue into his music. He was motivated by 'the excitement of flirting with some Reggaeton vibes and bringing them to the next level of modern electronic music'. 

Speaking about the specific inspiration behind the vocals, he says 'Ayy Paapi was born on a family holiday with my little daughter Gala calling me papi, papi papi all the time..so I decided to use Spanish Reggaeton vocals to represent my mood as a father‘.

The title track kicks things off; melodies sway through bitter-sweet cycles while a reverberated signal roars out with a gripping power. Sequences, fx and the vocal refrain continue to build an esoteric braid that's guaranteed to linger in the mind long after the parties over. 

'Rompe Disco' follows up with a playful, percussive Breaks / Electro tool. Saw blades slice through a deep-set bass line while more Spanish vocals flower. A striking breakdown lances in and shatters the track with head bending results before accurate breaks lock back in and carry synth-lines and robotic vocals to the end. 

'Espacio Amor' dials in a big room vibe as more mournful chords glide over a straight 4/4 groove. LFOs have synths flashing in expressive strokes before a series of breakdowns form launch pads for bold, arresting drops that are certain send ripples across the floor.

"Julia Keeps The Diamond In Silence" by Lipp is a dreamlike sonic journey where subtle strength meets delicate elegance. A deep, warm bassline underpins a graceful piano melody that drifts effortlessly through the mix. The main melodic theme glides in and out like a daydream, sustained by an ambient wash of atmosphere that feels both intimate and expansive. It’s the kind of track that softly envelops you - one to listen to with eyes closed, letting the textures and tones carry your thoughts.

“Just the Sound” is an album of 13 deep house tracks that weave together melodic house, soulful warmth, and experimental elements. The tracks move between clear structures and unexpected moments, creating a rich and multifaceted sonic landscape. Sometimes atmospherically dense, sometimes open and minimal, they showcase the versatility of the genre without losing their internal coherence. The result is a sound that feels both familiar and continually reveals new perspectives.
