Journeying into deeper, more electro-tinged territories than his previous material, Chris Stussy’s first solo EP on Up The Stuss ‘Mysteries Of The Universe’ showcases his evolution as an artist at the heart of modern house music.

Weaving spacey sonics, sparse textures and swirling, hypnotic melodies, the four originals across the EP deliver fresh, expansive club ammunition from the Amsterdam favourite on his return to home turf. Joining the package, partisan favourite Giammarco Orsini becomes the second remixer on the label, serving up another killer late-night voyage to shape up the package. Don’t sleep on this one. More

Kerri Chandler’s Kaoz Theory welcomes Amsterdam’s Chris Stussy onto its roster with the ‘A Glimmer Of Hope’ EP.

Amsterdam based producer and DJ Chris Stussy has become one of the most eminent figures in the contemporary house scene of the Netherlands and across the globe over the past five years, racking up releases on the likes of Eastenderz, Moscow, PIV, Contstant Sound and most recently his own Up The Stuss imprint. Here though he delivers his new four-tracker for Kaoz Theory.

Leading the release is ‘Central Frenzy’, laid out across six and a half minutes with skippy percussion, a snaking bass groove, intricate synth sequences and sweeping vocal chants. ‘Riva De Biasio’ follows and tips the focus over to airy atmospherics a jazz-tinged bass groove and squelchy acid licks atop swinging drums.

‘Deviant Shadow’ opens the flip-side and merges an amalgamation of expansive dub chords and bouncy sub bass tones with a robust 4/4 rhythm. Lastly to round things out is title-cut ‘A Glimmer Of Hope’, wrapping up the release on a deeper tip courtesy of ethereal pad swells, metallic synth licks and shuffled drums.


Early DJ Support:

Kerri Chandler, Chris Stussy, Archie Hamilton, Groovesh, Vlad Caia, Andrey P Ush Krav, Thor, Masimillano Pagliara, Dubtil.

Chris Stussy broke through in double quick time with some head turning house tracks. But what is important is that he has continued to back up that early promise years later with this EP on Moscow. He is now very much a key part of the underground with a sound that is all his own and has taken him to essential labels like Djebali, Rutilance, Eastenderz, Meta and, of course, PIV. He now makes his debut on Archie Hamilton’s Moscow records, and delivers 3 of his finest tracks to date. The EP kicks things off with ‘Wake Ning’, a deep, groovy track with a timeless, summertime feel. The B side boasts another 2 high quality tracks, Nunchi with a slightly tougher and Sonaris tying off the record perfectly in a deeper style. 3 classically infectious tracks from the Dutchman. More

Chris Stussy touches down on Dj Steaw’s House Puff for the very first time to present you the ‘Positive Mind EP’. (A1) ‘Positive Mind’ kicks things off with very refreshing chord sounds, catchy b-lines and church voices that lead you dreaming in the breaks. (A2) ‘Alone In The Dark’ is a dance floor orientated track that keeps you moving all the way through. (B1) On the flip-side ‘You & Me, Together’ has that typical Stussy style with a bumpy bassline combined with deep and dreamy chords, next to some crunchy 909-drums. (B2) Cabinet Case rounds off the package with warm attitude via blissed out synth pads and a delightful MPC swing on crispy hi-hats.

Having brought us his Ladies Night EP back in March alongside partner in crime Bas Roos; Dutchman Chris Stussy returns to the fold. This time flying solo on his Nightdriver EP. Steering away from the sample-stacked party peakers of his previous outing, Stussy delivers a more subtle and refined four track selection that opens with the shuffle and smooth chords of 'Nightdriver'. The warm bass and glistening keys of 'Crate Diggin'' takes up the beat baton, before 'One Way' ups the ante with its insistent and irresistible groove. Finally Chris caps this impressive outing with the disco infused, smooth flow of 'Lonely'.

Time for some magic as longtime friends Guti and Djebali present their debut collaborative LP ‘Almost Finished’. The two artists decided to get together in Djebali’s Paris studio when Guti was in the French capital in April. With no real plan besides the chance to have a jam together they ended up locked into a four-day session, producing six tracks. In the months that followed, both men roadtested the music around the world, receiving positive feedback everywhere they played. Feeling they’d created something special, the decision was made to arrange a second session at the end of the summer.They found themselves fully immersed in another intensive recording session, where the idea was to make more music based on the existing tracks to create a cohesive body of work that would form an album. Guti and Djebali composed an intro, an outro, interludes and new tracks that complemented those they’d made earlier in the year. Artwork has been specially commissioned from Mister Piro, a protégé of world-famous Madrid-based artist Okuda. The result is a dancefloor-focused collection of 8 tracks (plus a digital bonus) and stunning artwork, which comprise the ‘Almost’ Finished LP More

According to numerology the number five is the most energetic and dynamic of all the single numbers. Allow this to be one of your defining expectations when you start listening to ‘5’, the debut album from Parisian maestro Djebali. The number not only marks the number of years that have passed since his label was conceived, but also represents the months it took to complete his very first long-player. The album is a collection of dance floor-focused tracks, interspersed with a few experiments and unified by Djebali’s love of deep, sultry grooves and classic house motifs, with a contemporary sheen of course
