UTSOFF02 - Locklead
1. Moon
2. Hazy Gaze

Returning to Up The Stuss in style fresh from his collaborative Across Boundaries project with label head honcho Chris Stussy, it’s pretty clear that Utrecht-based DJ, producer and live talent Locklead’s purple patch isn’t going anywhere as he continues to unveil his sharp-edged, heady and cosmic sound to an ever-growing selection of fans. And when artist and label link and complement one another effortlessly, creating a home away from home, comfort and freedom take creativity to a new height.

For the sophomore release on UTSOFF, a series launched by Stussy’s soaring ‘All Night Long’ earlier this year, the enigmatic Dutchman delivers ‘Moon’ - a shimmering slice of house music that’s been the topic of endless ID requests since featuring as a stand-out track in Stussy’s Sonar Week sets. A true showcase of his innate talent as an artist, drawing from all corners of the genre, the track - written and produced solo while featuring his own vocals throughout - welcomes a trip into the mind of one of modern house music’s most exciting new names. In contrast,’ Hazy Gaze’ is a moody journey through tumbling textures, wonky synths and spacey tones, delivering two cuts for varying moods and moments, and another essential addition to the UTS catalogue.

Northern Ireland native Robbie Doherty first made waves in the underground circuit in his early twenties through releases on top labels from PIV to Knee Deep In Sound. The Brit silver-certified talent stands as PIV’s second top-selling artist, with his 2023 smash ‘It’s My Beat’ earning him the no.1 best-selling record spot on the Amsterdam-based label. Robbie now enters 2024 with a killer debut on Patrick Topping's essential Trick imprint with ‘Kick The 909’ featuring Klubbheads, a dance outfit from the Netherlands with countless hits on labels like Armada to their name.

The high-octane 'Kick The 909' brings together old-school chord stabs, a no-nonsense rapped vocal, and unrelenting drums that pulse beneath an airtight, pumping groove.

The phrase 'hotly-tipped' is thrown around a lot nowadays, but UK talent Gaskin is one of those artists for whom it is intended. Based in the North-East, the blossoming DJ/producer is an individual who has quickly found his sound, and to great effect with regular support from a long list of selectors and tastemakers from across the scene - most notably, Chris Stussy. Having featured as a selection of unreleased go-to cuts in his sets over the past year and after inviting him to join as a guest on his sold-out UK tour, Stussy now welcomes the exciting Brit to Up The Stuss for his three-track 'Closer' EP. Expect a mix of blissful synth-driven tones through to tougher electro-leaning spheres across a slick trifecta of house excursions as a few more of those heavily requested IDs finally see the lights of day.

As his Up The Stuss imprint approaches its 4th anniversary, Chris Stussy is continuing to unveil new projects that only add to his ever-growing reputation as an artist and label boss. Welcoming a wealth of global talent to date, the next release brings something special as he digs even deeper to launch the label’s Scholarship initiative - supporting new artists from across the globe with advice, mentoring, initiatives and a platform to showcase their work.

Introducing Pedro Borlado. Born in Madrid but now based in the US, the newcomer is an artist whose sound reflects an artist well beyond his years. An avid digger, embracing wide-reaching influences and pockets of genres within his sets, here he showcases his studio work for the very first time as he unveils his debut production as the first artist to release on Up The Stuss’ new sub-label with his four-track ‘First Light’ EP.

Bringing one of 2024’s most notable basslines alongside swirling synths and skippy drums, title cut ‘First Light’ sets the tone from the off. ‘Pleasure Pallet’ balances acid tones and warping sonics, while ‘Seeking Infinity’ harnesses hazy grooves and snaking percussion amongst playful arrangements. Add in closing cut ‘E700’, loaded with machine funk and pumping low-ends, and you get a stand-out debut from a name you’ll be hearing much more of in the coming years.
