In between launching a highly successful and award nominated iPhone app, smashing it on international dance floors with tracks like Praise You and the monumental Future Funk remix of Back & Forth (Fedde le Grand) and releasing debut artist album House For All (Funkerman), the Dutch dons of house music have actually found enough spare time to get back together with Dany P-Jazz and recruit a host of studio talent to give their 2009 track New Life a stunning reworking for summer 2010.

New Life was the track that defined the massive Flamingo Nights parties in Ibiza last year, shaking…

A brand new decade brings a brand new track from SexOnWax. Recently debuted on the much applauded SOS Ministry of Sound compilation ‘MOS presents SOS’ (released Feb 15, 2010), Omid’s new track ‘Lilly and Poppy’ is, typically, the kind of track that will never tire. For sure, the kind of track that will never grow old, or ugly. The kind of track that will never feel out of place, whether it’s heard at home, in a club, or even if it was re-imagined within a movie. In fact, in trademark 16B style, it’s teeming with cinematic qualities. Elevating. Heart-fluttering. A…

Lange 026 comes from Michael J Parker, fresh from his last hit on Flashover Recordings last July ‘Monostep’ where he teamed up with Dominik De Leon (half of DuMonde) to produce a track supported by Ferry Corsten, Lange, Cosmic Gate, Bart Claessen, TyDi, Heatbeat, Ernesto vs Bastian, Cliff Coenraad and Mark Sherry to name but a few!

Michael continues in the same vain here with Identity. Right from the word go the action begins with a rather large driving bassline at the heart of the track. This is quickly accompanied by sweeping synths before dropping into the breakdown where Michael…

The ever powerful combination of Funk D’Void and Sian deal out another dose of dance-floor on their latest EP, A Wasp in a Wig. Following on from the success of both the Ginebra and A Raven Wheeling Overhead EPs this cements their place as heavyweight talents on Soma.

Sian is now becoming recognised as a truly unique figure in electronic music. His list of aficionados reads like a whos who of contemporary dance culture, from Luciano, Loco Dice, Ricardo Villalobos, Steve Bug, Carl Craig and M.A.N.D.Y to Sasha, John Digweed and James Zabiela. While Funk D’Void is a very well…

Taken from the critically acclaimed Invol2ver album, ‘Eclipse’ and ‘Midnight’ get the remix treatment from two of the most exciting producers to emerge in recent years – Butch and Nhar. Personally selected by Sasha following his support of many of their own productions in his sets, both have delivered incredible interpretations…

Butch’s take on Sasha’s Ray LaMontagne collaboration is a furious slice of tech-house. “The original ‘Eclipse’ is quite deep,” explains Sasha, “So when we decided to have it remixed, we wanted to take it up a few notches, both to offer variety and make it suitable for those peak…

D.Ramirez’s muscular, electronic take on house music is back with a vengeance with new single “Satur8” proving that the next D.Ramirez release is always worth the wait.

With an autumn schedule that sees remixes of Skunk Anansi, a collaboration with Underworld and an enviable gig-list it’s with his own Slave Recordings that the true gold can be found.

“Satur8” is big room, riffy and of course dripping with the sort of production trickery that defines the D.Ramirez sound, but is simple in its approach and massively effective for it. The stripped back drum track provides groove while it’s the massive,…

After 15 years in the business as one of the leading producers of his time Jeroen ‘Secret Cinema’ Verheij is still pushing boundaries. He most recently took the No.1 position in the Beatport techno charts with his latest release on Cocoon Recordings (Shake Ur Tech-Ass), and has been ruling playlists and clubs all summer with his massive Kurzweil. For Verheij, the time has now come to broaden his horizons again and thus he will be launching his record label Gem Records in December!

The philosophy behind Gem is to only sign music that will become timeless, regardless of which…
