Juanito State & Monsieur Philippe connect for their debut on Obscura - the Frutos Brutos EP. The Colombian connection bears fruit yet again, providing a rich, mass-moving, and distinct sound that has caught the ears of global dancers. Powerful synthetic sounds enter the fold, as analog tones meet punchy drum patterns across this 6-track project, showcasing a club-driven sound from the compatriots.

The project’s two singles - Indie Town & Biche - lead the line on Frutos Brutos, providing twisted recognizable vocal chops on top of soaring synth work. Chonta Dura welcomes percussive latin rhythms over crisp broken beats, while Her In Hell is built upon minimal tones built for the afterhours sessions.I Mix Your Love feels like an instant classic, as gritty analog-drenched hooks ebb & flow on top of timeless vocal work. Closing the show in memorable fashion, Pineal Scratch pummels the soul, diving into the dark crevices of dancefloor appeal.

Frutos Brutos releases on all digital platforms April 29th, with presale available April 20th.

Perception EP

Premiere: John Monkman - Perception [Ellum]

Out now on Crosstown Rebels: lnk.to/_CRMLP049

The release of Crosstown Rebels’ SPIRITS compilation is always a bastion moment for the label. The first edition came to prominence in 2017 and we’ve been graced with an annual compilation ever since, showcasing a consistent habit to champion established artists and breakthrough ones alike. Now, Crosstown Rebels’ lauded SPIRITS series will see the light of day once more in June, with the release of SPIRITS V.

“Compiling the Spirits compilations and sourcing the artists that create the artwork for the sleeves is one of my favourite annual jobs for Crosstown. I get to sift through all the best music being sent to me and find a way to make a cohesive one stop shop full of underground battle weapons and future club hits whilst also setting the tone for the sound of the label in any given year. Spirits V is one of the strongest of the series”. Damian Lazarus

NYC-native Layla Benitez leads proceedings with Fides, a progressive leaning, introspective number that retains an inherent danceability throughout. It kicks off the compilation with a driving energy, one that’s perfectly matched by Trabajar - the Crosstown Rebels debut of recent Hot Creations inductee Mr.Diamond. 

A techy-inspired cut, punchy four-four drum patterns create a distinctive late-night feel, as UK-talent Denney soon arrives with Kill The Soundboy. Showcasing the groove-laced house sound with which he’s become best known, the near seven-minute piece is sure to light up many a club setting this year, paving the way for Talk To Me. It’s a collaborative venture between Munich-based artist ASK:ME and El Muerto, with Soulfoot featuring on vocals. Retaining a vintage Detroit style, the fast-paced tempo creates a natural excitement before Romanian-born mainstay GruuvElement’s gifts us the minimal-toned Boom Room.

Building with tribal-like percussion and salsa-inspired instrumentals, it’s a playful excursion into dance music’s outer realms, paving the way for young Peruvian producer Chinonegro with My Moment. Whether it be the pluck of a guitar string or a jazzy trumpet solo, there’s an inherent authenticity to the six-minute piece, as a mid track breakdown gives way to whispering hats and a rhythmic underlying backbone.

The penultimate offering comes from French-born, London-based regular Maglia, who serves up the shamanic Rayiys. The chirping of birds reside atop an ever-changing bassline, leaving us open and ready for the VA’s closing saga: Thanks Moon, by Spain’s I AM JAS. A heady combination of beautiful lyrical contributions combine with softly moving electronic elements, to leave us in a state of calm, inward reflection. Rounding off proceedings on a note of quietude, it reminds us of the final moments in clubland, transporting our psyche to sunrise, fond memories and everything in between.

Over a period of nineteen years, Damian Lazarus’ Crosstown Rebels has evolved into a world-renowned institution, garnering global audiences thanks to a consistent schedule of quality releases. In years since it’s earliest beginnings, the likes of Maceo Plex, Art Department, Seth Troxler, Ali Love, Mathew Jonson, Pier Bucci, Acid Pauli, Dennis Kurtel, Francesca Lombardo, Glimpse, Aphrohead, Fur Coat and a plethora of other figureheads have all found their home on the label.

The roster is international, showcasing how Crosstown has shaped a truly global scene. Releases are born in different continents by artists who hail from different countries, resulting in a sound that resonates worldwide. Perhaps most-pivotal to the label’s success is its musical output: no part is governed by boundary or genre. It’s underpinned by a truly eclectic sound, one that reflects the diversity of Damian’s love for music itself. An album from drum and bass icon DJ Krust here, a maiden LP from Audiojack there... traversing genres has been Damian’s forte for decades - and Crosstown epitomises that as a result.

Out now on Rekids: lnk.to/REKIDS205

Mona Yim debuts on Rekids with ‘Gotta Do This, Gurl’, featuring remixes from Radio Slave.

Born and raised between Singapore and Germany and now based in Berlin, Mona Yim spent time bouncing between the clubs of London, Berlin, and Paris while honing her craft, culminating in a recent remix for DJ Seinfeld’s ‘Tell Me One More Time’ on Ninja Tune. Now readying her debut solo release on Rekids, Mona Yim delivers two dreamy house cuts for the imprint, backed with a pair of remixes from label-boss Radio Slave.

Leading the release, ‘Gotta Do This, Gurl’ brings crispy, bouncing drums alongside moody pads and subtle vocal chops, building up to an emotive breakdown. Radio Slave beefs up the drum patterns with breakbeats for his remix, adding additional atmospheric FX to existing melodic elements for a chunky, driving track. 

‘Dots Obsession’ sees floaty percussion, gentle synth work and vocals working in tandem to craft a soft yet evocative house jam. Injecting a pumping 4/4 pattern alongside elements of the original, Radio Slave’s interpretation brings the energy levels up with pitch-perfect dub FX and swirling synthesis.

Sound Avenue proudly unveils the first remix sampler of Inspired, the debut album from Australian duo Secretly Famous, released earlier this year. A carefully curated package, it brings together a diverse set of talents from across the globe, each adding their own signature touch to the album's originals.

The release opens with a collaboration between UK producer Riigs and Dutch artist Paul Hazendonk, who makes a welcome return to Sound Avenue after first appearing on the label back in 2012 with a remix for Madloch. A warm-hearted and widely respected figure in the electronic music community, Hazendonk is the driving force behind Manual Music and has performed in over 35 countries, with releases on influential imprints such as Diynamic, Sudbeat, Get Physical, 3000grad, and Sony/Epic. His studio partner Riigs has built an equally impressive profile, with records signed to Manual Music, Londam, Oh! Records Stockholm, and Capital Heaven. Together, the pair deliver a stunning reinterpretation of Famously Secret, infusing it with their trademark melodic flair.

The journey continues with a remix of Am I Dreaming from Australian producer Astrek. Introduced to the Sound Avenue family through last year's Future Avenue Spring Sampler, he has since expanded his presence across the group's labels, including releases on 3rd Avenue and his debut appearance on Sound Avenue via Correlation, Vol. 8. His take on Am I Dreaming highlights his fast-rising status, layering atmospheric depth with subtle, groove-driven textures.

Closing the sampler is another rework of Am I Dreaming, this time from Indian producer Aman Anand. With releases on Sudbeat, Balkan Connection, Juicebox Music, and Mango Alley, Aman has long been a respected name in the progressive house circuit. His history with the Sound Avenue family dates back to 2013, when he first appeared on 3rd Avenue's We Are The Future compilation: a forward-looking series that showcased emerging talents who have since grown into established names. Twelve years on, Aman's return to the fold underscores that very vision, bringing his refined sound full circle with a deeply emotive interpretation.
