Fresh Blood straight from NYC, big tip!! NYC’s underground producer Sweater On Polo back on the machines for the first release on Signal Route. “Mechanical Confusion” favors the techno and basement house approach of early 90’s Chicago innovators found on labels such as Dance Mania, Relief Records, and Saber Records. His style and approach carry a familiar old school angst, creating an intergenerational dialogue between the now and then. Going from acid house, to techno, and then synth punk, this 6 track EP captures the relentless range of the young artist.

Prajñāghoṣa's debut ambient album on Into The Deep Treasury is a narrative, a musical poem, an attempt to share the story of a transformative odyssey — an outer and inner journey marked by higher aspirations, spiritual growth, and a profound connection with the world.

First time on vinyl, limited to 300 copies. This release features two previously unreleased 1970s disco tracks and a dub mix, edited and mixed by DJ Jimmy Michaels. The A-side presents "Baby Do It," a track produced by the legendary East Coast figure, Bud Ross. From his modest beginnings as a car salesman to becoming a key force in Philadelphia’s music scene, Bud Ross left a lasting impact across multiple generations and genres. Unlike traditional band-driven productions, "Baby Do It" was crafted in the studio with a rotating collective of session musicians. Bud’s method was to assemble talented players, dive into a genre and theme, and create songs designed for movie placements, artist collaborations, or radio airplay. Years later, Jimmy Michaels—a DJ and Bud’s longtime friend—unearthed some of these hidden studio session gems, breathing new life into them with fresh arrangements. "Baby Do It" emerged as the standout track from a collection of unreleased disco and pop material, remixed from Bud’s original master tapes. On the B-side, we have two versions of "Ask Me To Dance" by Dick Hieronymous, a cornerstone figure in library music production. A seasoned composer and soundtrack veteran, Dick has contributed to film scores since the 1960s. "Ask Me To Dance" features vocals by Sassy Alan, a pseudonym for Marcia Elder. An edited version of this track made its way into the 1980s TV teen film Goin’ All The Way, but the full version was never officially put out. Once again, Jimmy Michaels worked closely with Dick to sift through his vast archive, creating new mixes of his disco material. Dedicated to preserving Dick’s legacy, Jimmy made these tracks available on Bandcamp through his own label and then helped Smiling C to collaborate with Dick to release them on vinyl.

KemeticJust's 'Taking Flight' shuts down with more heavy beats but still romantic moods.

People Of Earth strides into the New Year with a new project called The Elements Series.

Atlanta's main man Kai Alce does his do with the jazzy synth energy of shuffling house cut 'Benefit' (NDATL instrumental mix) then Byron The Aquarius pairs things back to dusty drums and humid chords on 'Sun Gods'.

One of clubland’s most unmistakable and loved duos, Steffi & Virginia present a new album of upfront house music, Patterns of Vibration. Eight gracefully-driven songs stretch out from the hazy fog of the dancefloor to the sun-drenched future decades of house, offering a glimpse into the rich heritage and distinct forward momentum of the two artists. With their first productions dating back to 2010 the pair continue on a long-lasting journey together as creators and partners. Their debut, Reasons, was quickly followed by the seminal Yours on Ostgut Ton - the blueprint for their trademark sound, embedding gorgeous vocal hooks within luxuriant, weighty club tracks. In their own words, “a celebration of joyful moments,” Patterns of Vibration was put together over a three month period of intensive work and play. The pair immersed themselves in the daily ritual of putting down ideas at their Candy Mountain studio in the Portuguese countryside. At the same time Steffi’s 50th birthday celebrations fueled their creative fires, reconnecting with old friends and tapping into a deep love for those ecstatic moments of freedom and unity, soundtracked by house music. In no time a huge folder of ideas amassed and they set about selecting the purest, stand-out signals with the motto, “let the positivity shine through!” It’s been a process that has gifted the two artists with energy and perspective as they continue on their unique path. With the spirit of the fierce night streaming through on every track, this album marks a bright new chapter in the duo’s story - channeling that special potion of emotional vibrations found when music, dance, friends and lovers meet. Thanks to countless hours behind the decks at their Berghain / Panorama Bar residencies and global touring, the album glistens with an ageless urgency and a straight-to-club core. That driving, early morning pulse is mirrored by a deft skill for conjuring arresting electronic hymns; transmitting their passion and collective years together on the road, in clubs, in the studio, and at home. From the moody tribalism of lead single Nightflight, to the chord-led heaven of Stab Stealer, or the tracky 7 In The Morning, Steffi & Virginia’s partnership is alive with the essential throb of a movement that continues to blossom as it enters its 4th decade. Virginia’s jubilant vocal hooks are front and centre on every track, enriched with Steffi’s precision analogue bump. Punchy and direct kick drums carry jacking snares and interwoven synth stabs. Perfectly placed basslines massage the low-end, leaving plenty of space for Virginia’s vivescent vocals. A homogenous sonic code is woven throughout, as Virginia’s voice provides not only the soaring leading lines but also the “ornaments and tentacles” of each track, with percussive details and micro-elements melting into the grooves of every cut. Steffi & Virginia’s house music is the stuff of folklore. Patterns of Vibration weaves a narrative through a record crate full of emotions, a forever-chorus calling out through the night, till the earthy glow of the new dawn.

This debut album by Amsterdam-based guitarist Johnny Biner is a modern day jazz piece, with hints of soul, funk, hip-hop, and latin jazz as well. It's the follow-up of his 7-inch 'Don't Ask Me/Way Too Long', which came out in 2023 and launched his solo endeavours. Johnny's compositions are filled with warmth and unexpected left turns, such as the raw banger 'Tonic Water' (which got featured on the Super-Sonic Jazz compilation) and the beautiful samba-inspired jazz-funk tune 'Pick It Up'. There are lots of layers to this musician, and they're all cohesive with his sound. The album obviously is a way out for the artist, from creating it at home or in the studio with his close musician friends and sharing it with the public. But the process has equally been a healing way out of the everyday life. Think of the moments when music teleports your mind out of the earthly spheres, into the more universal ones, this is what 'A Way Out' would represent as well. The power of honest music. "If US guitarist Isaiah Sharkey and Brazilian guitarist Toninho Horta would've had a European baby, it could've made 'A Way Out'."

Koinè is the new album by Pellegrino & Zodyaco, a record that explores the desire to escape by interpreting it as an act of emancipation, an aimless journey in search of creative freedom. The demonstration that escapism, when it is conscious, can bring us back to the heart of things. Inspired by Éloge de la fuite by Henri Laborit, the album embarks on a journey to discover a “common language” (Koinè), blending Neapolitan roots with a global and contemporary musical vision. It blends melodic traditions with disco, funk, jazz fusion, and world music, experimenting with vintage instruments, ethnic percussion, and Mediterranean atmospheres. Pellegrino, a pioneer of the “new school” Neapolitan sound, after 4 years since his last LP “Morphé” (2020) continues the path started with Zodyaco I (2018), painting an authentic portrait of modern Naples and celebrating musical contamination as a form of creative euphoria.
