Genres: Breakbeat, UK Rave, Electronica

A rising and genre-defying figure in the French electronic scene, Goldie B continues her
ascent with Who Says Night’s For Sleeping?, a five-track EP that asserts her distinctive
signature: an instinctive blend of club energy, cinematic storytelling and UK rave influences.
Conceived as the soundtrack to a night lived in full intensity, the record moves through the fire
of the dancefloor, the collective trance, and those suspended moments where one floats
between dream and wakefulness.

“I imagined this EP as the soundtrack to a night experienced in its entirety. From the first rush of
adrenaline on the dancefloor to that floating walk home, still carried by the music. My influences range
from Moby and Air to Floating Points and Joy Orbison, artists who know how to combine power and
emotion. I love connecting the raw energy of the club with more dreamlike textures, because you can
absolutely dream while dancing. Each track is an instinctive snapshot of my inner world.” Goldie B
The EP’s opening act, “The Space Between” blends ethereal pads, organic strings and a steady
crescendo, recalling the elegance of Air or Moby. It opens a suspended space, equally suited to inner
drift or physical release. “I wanted it to feel like a threshold, a gentle hand pulling you into a trance
state.”

On “U Make Me Feel So Good”, a sensual and narrative breakbeat track, a flowing bassline gradually
tightens into trancier energy. Seductive female vocals weave through broken rhythms, creating a
piece that is as tactile as it is hypnotic. “It’s about contrast, the softness and caress at the start, then a
tension that rises and electrifies.”
Instagram | Youtube | TikTok | SoundCloudAt the heart of the project, “Rêve de Rave” channels 90’s breakbeat spirit with old-school samples, an
euphoric central break and voices urging to move your feet. Urgent and liberating, it embodies the
dreamlike essence of the rave. “It’s how I imagine the rave: a lucid dream where joy and collective
energy feel almost unreal.”

Next comes the most incisive cut of the EP, “Purple FX”, driven by a grating central bassline that
evolves relentlessly until its explosive drop. Minimalist yet implacable, it captures the sheer force of a
peak-time track. “I wanted a track purely designed for the club, where the tension just keeps rising
until it explodes.”

Closing in chiaroscuro, “Snake Waves” shifts from breakbeat into a half-house, half-techno 4/4
groove, carried by a sinuous, hypnotic bassline. The track plays on tension and release, with a rich
harmonic break before fading like a suspended farewell, where the party recedes but the energy
lingers. “It’s a farewell piece that keeps the intoxication alive, like a final vertigo before slipping back
into the night.”

Goldie B is a multifaceted force on the French electronic scene. A producer, multi-instrumentalist,
singer, MC, DJ, and co-founder of the label Omakase Recordings, her sets blend bass, jungle, UKG,
and breakbeat, captivating audiences with their contagious energy. Based in Marseille, she has
released music on renowned labels such as D.KO, Banoffee Pies, and YUKU, and has performed on
some of the biggest French stages and festivals: Peacock Society, Astropolis, NDK, Marsatac, Delta,
Le Bon Air, and even the Festival d’Avignon. In 2024, she was selected by Apple Music for its
Women In Electronic series. Her new Who Says Night’s For Sleeping? EP confirms her status as an
instinctive and distinctive artist to watch on the French electronic scene.

12" EP

Tracklist
1. Ready To Shine
2. Sugar
3. I Can Be Anything
4. May It Never End

Genres: House, Hardgroove

A rising artist of the French electronic scene, Naajet asserts her identity with The Night Starts
Now, a four-track EP that celebrates the freedom and intensity of the night. Co-founder of the
Bande de Filles collective and known for her explosive universe blending House, Hardgroove
and Breaks, as well as for the unique energy inherited from her dance background, Naajet
delivers here a sonic manifesto conceived as an ode to club culture and to the present
moment.

“I imagined this EP as an anthem to the world of the night. The night offers us unparalleled freedom,
an outlet that allows us to be ourselves, to create, to love. The Night Starts Now captures this
celebration of the present moment and this declaration of independence.” Naajet
Opening the EP, “Ready To Shine” unfolds radiant House nourished by Pop and 90’s sounds. With a
clear and ascending rhythm, the track combines euphoria and introspection. “I composed this track as
a joyful and introspective journey that prepares us to embrace the night. For me, it is a call to accept
our wounds, to transform them into light and strength, so that we may shine brighter when we enter
the club,” explains Naajet. Between ethereal vocal lines and shimmering pads, the track acts as a
ritual of entering the night, inviting us to turn wounds into strength and to shine on the dancefloor.
The second track of the EP, “Sugar”, embodies the effervescence of the club. Carried by a hypnotic
voice and an effervescent rhythm, the track celebrates the communion of bodies and the liberating
energy of dance. “It is an ode to dance and to bodies coming together. This track speaks of those
moments when, on the dancefloor, boundaries fall: we sweat together, we free ourselves together,
and energy flows from one body to another,” says Naajet. A true concentrate of intensity, “Sugar”
captures the moment when sweat, rhythm and abandon merge into a collective movement towards
freedom.

With “I Can Be Anything”, Naajet changes register and flirts with deeper, even techno textures. Built
on a throbbing pulse and sharp synths, this track is meant as a manifesto of identity. “I really wanted
to propose a track that claims our right to free and plural expression and sexuality. I Can Be Anything
is about our multiple identities, our ability to reinvent ourselves and to refuse any form of formatting,”
she says. Between club intensity and political resonance, “I Can Be Anything” questions our multiple
facets and embodies the assertion of an elusive and free self.
Closing the EP on an euphoric note, “May It Never End” stands out with its broken rhythms and
powerful synths. The track conveys the transcendent energy of the end of the night, when dawn
arrives but we refuse to leave the collective trance. “I wanted to put into music this feeling of infinite
energy, when time is suspended and the party seems to never have to stop. It is this euphoric vertigo
that connects us all in the same breath, this utopia of a night that would never end,” says Naajet. A
true apotheosis, this track embodies the utopia of an eternal night.


DJ, producer and co-founder of the Bande de Filles collective, Naajet has established herself with a
singular universe where House, Hardgroove and Breaks blend, nourished by her background as a
dancer and an instinctive sense of groove. For the past three years, she has performed on French
and European stages – from Berlin to Amsterdam, via Geneva and Oslo – and has made her mark in
clubs such as Rex Club, Le Sucre and Badaboum, as well as festivals like Nuits Sonores and Kolorz.
On the production side, she has released several acclaimed EPs on renowned labels such as Shall
Not Fade and Monki & Friends. In 2025, she takes a new step with the launch of her label SWEAT
Records and a residency at Le Sacré in Paris, affirming her role as an ambassador of a free and
intense club culture. She also collaborates with the waacking company MADOKI, for which she
composes and mixes projects at the crossroads of dance and music. With The Night Starts Now,
Naajet confirms her status as an essential artist of the new electronic generation

12" EP

Tracklist
1. Ce Matin-Là
2. Together
3. My Heart
4. Bees Die After Stinging
5. Oceans Reflections
6. Ce Matin-Là (Tour-Maubourg Remix)

Following a debut EP praised for its freshness and boldness, S-Pazz returns with Birth of
Light, a second release that fully confirms the potential of the Parisian duo. Blending elements
of house, jazz, broken beat, and ambient, the record sees them refine their musical identity
with a more intimate and introspective approach, yet always deeply rhythmic and luminous.
Composed four-hands during a moment of personal transition, the EP feels like a rite of
passage where music becomes a space of unity, resilience, and imagination.

“This EP reflects a major transition in our lives, as it was written during Nathan’s move out of the
shared flat where we also had our studio. Despite the change, we managed to preserve the unique
creative world that defines the identity of S-Pazz. We deliberately infused it with a wide range of
influences, spanning different eras and cultures. ‘Birth of Light’ builds on the foundations laid with our
first EP: crafting music at the crossroads of our respective influences, always driven by our love for
cinematic soundscapes.” S-Pazz

The opening track, “Ce Matin-Là”, unfolds with a dreamlike atmosphere, led by lush string
arrangements from Nathan’s father, a double bassist already sampled on their first EP. “We wanted to
get closer to those tracks that bridge electronic and orchestral music, like what 4Hero, Bonobo, or
even Air have done,” explains S-Pazz. The track also gets a reinterpretation from Tour-Maubourg,
who delivers a deep house remix tinged with bossa nova, infusing the piece with a warm, summery,
and organic tone that extends the EP’s globe-trotting spirit.
With “Together”, the Parisian duo pays tribute to the UK broken beat scene through a syncopated
and generous track where analog synths and live grooves coexist with subtle balance. “We wrote it in
Instagram | Youtube | TikTok | SoundCloudthe summer of 2024. It combines a lot of sampling and a growing passion for synths we’ve developed
over time. For the percussion, we drew a lot of inspiration from producers like Da Lata, 4hero, and
Chaos in the CBD.”

“My Heart” captures the EP’s dancefloor soul, a hybrid of broken beat, jazz, and funk. Warm brass,
Prophet 5 bass doubled with a Rhodes, and a breathy vocal that bridges groove and emotion. “It’s a
blend of jazz, dub, and funk. Club music that speaks to the body as much as to the heart.”
The fruit of a year-long process, “Bees Die After Stinging” brings together afro-influenced 6/8
rhythms, field recordings of beehives, and finely crafted jazz arrangements. The illusion of a live band
is meticulously constructed in-studio. “We’re especially proud of this track, it really captures the
meeting point between our two musical worlds.”

The closing track, “Ocean Reflections”, deliberately breaks away from classic house structure,
embracing a freer, more ambient form. It brings the EP to a contemplative and fluid end. “We wanted
to close the EP with something special, no four-on-the-floor kick, but a preserved groove that invites
introspection. We invited our friend Claire Grunenberger to sing, and Grégoire added a jazz solo as a
tribute to the early days of St Germain.”

S-Pazz is a project formed by Nathan and Grégoire, close friends and creative partners both on and
off stage. Their music reflects a rare intersection of jazz, house, broken beat, and narrative-driven
electronic music, shaped by their distinct backgrounds: Grégoire is a jazz-trained multi-instrumentalist,
while Nathan is a DJ and beatmaker influenced by hip-hop and raised in a family of musicians. Their
debut EP Tales of Dancing Waters (2024) quickly caught the attention of listeners and curators alike,
racking up hundreds of thousands of streams and landing on playlists alongside artists like Berlioz,
Barry Can’t Swim, Dublon, and Tour-Maubourg. Now, with Birth of Light, the duo takes a major step
forward in their evolution, laying the foundation for a deeply personal, immersive, and resolutely
luminous musical language.

Who is Mr Flash? The best kept secret of the French Touch? The beat maker who ran with the TTC crew in the 90's? The passionate collector of rare and bizarre records? The producer that was called in to help Sebastien Tellier build his blue musical cult? The man behind a handful of 12" with saturated contours on Ed Banger Records (Motorcycle Boy, Disco Dynamite, Domino) combining rock, hip hop and electro? He's all of that, really.

Mr Flash's debut album is titled Sonic Crusader (in reference to an article in Dazed & Confused on the start of Ed Banger), which perfectly illustrates his musical philosophy. 15 tracks - among which the classics 'Domino' and 'Motorcycle Boy' - resulting in a genuine sonic odyssey condensing all of Mr Flash's obsessions: his passion for phat and melodic hip hop, his taste for cinematic and illustrative sequences, his influences of polished 70's and 80's productions like Prince, AC/DC, Herbie Hancock or Sun Ra, and electro notions nourished by new-wave and industrial music. The whole thing is enveloped in a cloak of musical grandiosity. A sonic crusade shaped like a rollercoaster of influences that Mr Flash orchestrates with subtlety, taking us in one fell swoop from the sweaty dumps of a club to the melancholy of California highways, sneaking us into the jungle and having us wake-up dressed as a modern crooner, before throwing us head first into the twinkling stars. In the end, it's the perfect soundtrack to a film that's never been shot.

Track list:

A1 Lorenz Rhode - Marakuja
A2 Jaxx Madicine - Blue Bird
B1 Felix Leifur - Buster
B2 S3A - Modern Soul
B3 Harry Wolfman - Space Cakes
C1 Ponty Mython - It’s All Understood
C2 Ouer - Lost Mindset
C3 Dan Only - Lofty
D1 Times Are Ruff - DF3
D2 25 Places - Bleak Moments

Release Info:

This is already our seventh Deep Love compilation and we dare to say our most complete yet in sound and flow. The ten pieces on this sampler blend in perfectly with that laid back “late” summer mood. We are very pleased to welcome yet again some new acts to Dirt Crew with the likes of “Jaxx Madicine”, “Ouer”, “Times are Ruff” and “S3A”. We cross many borders not only in genres but also country wise. From the heavy Disco sampled jam by French producer “S3A” to the Jazz and Funk laden epos of the Italian 3 piece “Jaxx Madicine” over to the Dutch deep house boys “Times Are Ruff” who are well known from their, same named, label and finally to the Berlin duo “Ouer” who also run an own label and released with our good friends at “Heist Recordings”, delivering an ecstatic electronic floating tune here.

This is all completed by some excellence from long time Dirt Crew artists. “25 Places” have been with us for many years now and their two Ep’s have gotten so much love from the deeper deep house community. Here they drop an epic almost IDM techno like tune that closes this great album in the best possible way. Our Icelandic stall wart “Felix Leifur” drops a heavy hitter named “Buster”. After his recent “Bobby Donny” Ep earlier this year we are thrilled to have him back on Dirt Crew! “Harry Wolfman” and “Ponty Mython” need no introduction really, they are adding Electro/ Disco/ Electronica fuelled cuts that form a great middle part to this mix of tunes. Harry going in very smooth and relaxed, something else than his usual House workout which we really loved to present to you. “Ponty Mython” drops an irresistible “good times” indie acid track in his unique “free” style.

Last, we must of course not forget “Dan Only” and key wizzard “Lorenz Rhode”! With another beautifully smooth cut “Dan Only” follows up on his latest debut Ep with us. Again a smart cross over in Techno and House with a distinct relaxed groove and atmosphere to it. Lorenz is back “On Top” here after his super successful first offering to the Deep Love series last year and his “And I Said” EP which stormed many charts. In the middle of touring and working with Detroit Swindle on their “High Life” album we are super happy that he found the time to make another gem with that raw n funky live feel to it... We couldn’t have started this compilation off with a better joint than “Marakuja”.

Enough words for now ... just put these vinyl on your decks or stream/play it on the go and don’t forget to drop them at a sweaty club night. Deep Love is here to stay!

Release Info:
Searching for new ways to express himself, Maarten Smeets (one half of Detroit Swindle) has found a new perspective on music in his alter ego “Wanderist”. Here, he shares his unique view on contemporary electronic music with strong influences from dub, electro, techno and ambient in tempo’s that match the intensity, funk and drive of his sound. As Wanderist, he has been writing some of his more abstract work of recent times. His sound is melancholic yet euphoric, using powerful loops and dreamlike melodies to create a dense flow in his compositions. His debut release is signed to Aus music later in 2020 and he has also launched his own label titled ‘Transient Nature’ where his own work will be released along with the work of like-minded artists. With a large catalog of music ready to release and collaborations with various labels planned for 2021, the future is bright for Wanderist.

Release Info:
Amsterdam natives Maarten Smeets and Lars Dales, aka Dam Swindle, unveil their third long-player with the release of a new track, the first to be shared from the upcoming album, ‘Open’ - out on 30 May 2025 via Heist Recordings.

The new album sees the acclaimed duo dive far beyond the deep sonic waters they’re most known for, exploring lower tempos, synthwave, hip-house, and ambient across fourteen tracks. With a gestation period that traces back several years, ‘Open’ is their most intimate and personal body of work thus far, birthed during a time of self-reflection away from touring and personal transformation as individuals.

“We felt the need to tell a very personal story through our music as a translation of our personal development in the past years. We also wanted to make music without a specific goal in mind; We simply wanted to create. By taking away the grid of dance music and any expectations of what a Dam Swindle song should sound like, the creativity started to flow naturally with songs in many different styles and tempos. The result is an album that feels refreshing and uplifting and still very much true to the heart and soul of our sound.” - Dam Swindle, January 2025.

While the trademark Dam Swindle four-to-the-floor beats are still ever-present on tracks like ‘The Present Is Always Perfect’, ‘I Need You’, and ‘Is This Love?’, it’s the gentle waves of synths on opener ‘Home’, the contemplative piano chords of ‘Bloom’ featuring Joep Beving, and the lo-fi ambience of ‘It’s Okay, I Can Wait’ that showcase a melancholic, ethereal sensibility previously uncharted by the duo. Collaborations with vocalists such as NYC’s Haile Supreme on ‘Not Enough’ and Neo-soul singer Faye Meana on ‘Girl’ expertly find room in between the dancefloor and home listening sessions, and a clear standout on the LP is the title cut where message-heavy rapped vocals from UK artist Samson ebb and flow amongst iridescent grooves.

Under the helm of Maarten and Lars’ adept A&R, their Heist imprint has become a beloved home for house heads of both schools old and new, platforming some of dance music’s biggest names from Cinthie to DJ Sneak as well as the musical dawnings of artists such as Kassian and Makèz. The Dam Swindle alias has achieved house music royalty-like status across a storied 15-year career that includes two critically lauded full-lengths, collaborations with the likes of Tom Misch and Kerri Chandler, and a globetrotting touring schedule. This album stands as their most profoundly personal work of art to date, and they can’t wait to share it with you.

Release Info:

The Dam Swindle curated compilation Heist Classics Vol. 02 delivers even more of the label’s biggest hits in a beautiful limited-edition package.

It’s safe to say that in it’s 10 years of existence, Heist Recordings has given us plenty of amazing music and has cemented itself as one of the key labels in today’s house scene. The first 3 compilations of this year have had an amazing response with radio and club tastemakers (re)discovering some of the best music that has come out on Heist. With support from Paul Woolford, Luke Slater, Antal, James Zabiela, Nightmares on Wax, a 10/10 in Faze Mag and various radio plays on BBC R1 with Pete Tong, Annie Mac and more, it’s safe to say that everyone has been loving these releases. Now, Dam Swindle conclude their 10-year anniversary releases with Classics vol. 2: a limited-edition collection with hits from Crackazat, Andy Hart, Kassian, Makèz and Nachtbraker.

The release kicks off with ‘Alfa’: Crackazat’s biggest hit to date (and that’s saying something, coming from a producer that has delivered jam upon jam in his career). It’s a signature Crackazat song with an off-kilter live key loop, shuffling percussion and pumping low end.
Andy Hart’s ‘Epsilon Girls’ was originally released in 2014 and has helped cement the artist and label’s position in the house music landscape. A vintage Barbara St. Clair loop gives the track a lovely human touch, which is countered by layers upon layers of glimmering electronics.

Different Planets is the track that really kickstarted the career of the talented duo Makèz. Released in 2019, the track has everything we’ve come to love from their recognizable sound: lively drums, catchy hooks and warm & jazzy chords. UK duo Kassian are represented on this package with their track ‘8th Movement’. Their sound has progressed towards techno in recent years which has given them support from artists across the board such as Ben UFO, Special Request and many more. Their Heist classic ‘8th Movement’ - still housey in its core - already has hints of their newfound style in its sound design and rolling energy.

We end the record with what might be Nachtbraker’s biggest track of his career: ‘Hamdi’. You’ll find him currently at work with artists such as Shanti Celeste where he recently released his Capichone EP, but the sound he developed in the early part of his career had Heist written all over it. ‘Hamdi’ is a proper anthem, with African drums, an ecstatic vocal sample and a killer groove.

The vinyl release of Heist Classics Vol. 02 is printed on colored 180grams heavyweight vinyl and is limited to 1000 records with a special design by our Art Director Bas Koopmans (Wellness.)

Enjoy the music and play it loud!

Lars & Maarten

Short info:
Quintessentials is very happy to present their 50th release! To celebrate this, we invited some buddies to bring the deep beats. And damn they did! Mat Chiavaroli, one of your main artists who is getting stronger and stronger, opens this jubilee release with upbuilding powerful tune, just the tune the get Quintessentials 50 started! Great to see profilic dutch producer Nachtbraker (Heist, Quartet Series) on the label too. We love his style and he will soon be as popular as Ajax Amsterdam! His subtle and dirty "Bronco" fits in perfectly. The definitive club tune that grooves and grooves and grooves comes from Ponty Mython (Dirt Crew). Alexandr is a cool guy and this is defo a cool tune. Last but not least is Soul of Hex (Freerange, Vicario). Our mexican friend is going very raw this time. Yes, why not call it electronic body music (remember?)! As we are gentlemen, we added a Quintessentials sticker in the vinyl edition. Go and get it!

This single features the album cut “Flavourism” with vocals from Seven Davis Jr. Here, the single is presented with remixes by the amazing Pépé Bradock and Boston-to-NYC house duo John Barera & Will Martin.
Flavourism is as much a throwback track to classic Dam Swindleterritory, as it is a look into their contemporary view on soulful deep house. The vibe is set by Seven Davis Jr.’s distinctive vocals, accompanied by warm ‘side-chained’ pads and a rubbery live synth-bassline. Fans of “The Wrap Around” will definitely feel a nod to that 2012 classic with those Prophet pads. If you’ve seen their live performance with Seven Davis Jr. during Dour festival in 2015 or heard their remix for SDJ’s track “Friends” on Classic Music Company, you might already anticipate a collaboration that works like a charm.
When deciding on a remixer for this project, the boys wanted to do something special. Ask someone special. And so it happened that they asked Pépé Bradock: someone who stood at the root of European house music and has pioneered in the genre, carefully curating his own style into something that surpasses genres. Here, he delivers both a stunning and deep interpretation of the original, with added harmonies, a touch of lo-fi and his own signature electronics. On top comes the ‘acapella’, stripped from all percussion and leaving the vocal and all of Pépé’s lovely weirdness.
The single further features US house duo John Barera & Will Martin, who have already released some amazing music on Dolly, or John’s own ‘ Supply records’. Not surprisingly, they deliver a great clubby house cut with some Chicago flavour, dubbing and out the vocal to a basic mantra: “I’ll always keep”.
Keep an eye out for High Life out soon with more collaborations. For now, please enjoy Flavourism.
Best Regards,
Heist Recordings.

Info:
Listen to this if you like: anything that we've put out last year, wrapped together in a lovely double pack of a 12" and 10". The Roundup part 1 is the first part of an annual recurring event: the big Heist family remix EP, where all artist names get put in a big bowl, and by luck of the draw, find themselves remixing (and remixed by) another Heist artist. We've got Max Graef remixing Dam Swindle and turning the break up into a full on Graef-affair. The label heads themselves take "The Organ Grinder"'s "Change all the time" and turn into a deep Chicago-esque tune and completing the 12", there's Frits Wentink's take on Bluebottle, experimenting with his trademark shuffle. On the 10", Standout track of the first year of Heist "Jungle" gets a lovely rework by Nachtbraker, giving it a more 4x4 feel than the original and The Organ Grinder who turns Frits Wentink's Schrewd into a full on Filter house cut. The artwork is handmade and photographed by Baster.

B2) +++
Info:
COEO are to Toy Tonics records, what Master at Work were to the House scene of the 1990ies: They bring the Soul into the House. Their new EP "Back In The Days" is a 4 track house stomper that could have been made in 1997 by guys like Sneak, Dimitri from Paris or Little Louie. But still the similarities to the new Berlin Sample-House scene around Max Graef and Hodini are evident, too. Already their last years' superhit NATIVE RIDDIM (which is featured as a bonus track on this vinyl) included some heavy jazz samples they found in their parents' bag of soul. Native Riddim has been no.1 in the Traxsource charts for several weeks and was the basis for their already huge following. From Laurent Garnier to Tensnake - the feedback has been awesome. Now they proceed their way of souldful house. Just good taste.

Release Info:
It’s Italian time! Sam Ruffillo is back. Sicilian producer doing smooth Balearic disco with Italian vocals. The direction is clear: Sam Ruffillo's music brings us back into the Italian riviera and the hippy days of Ibiza in the late 1970ies. Even his way of production is similar to how the early days disco producers in Italia used to work: No samples needed. Instead a few guest musicians come to jam over Sam's beats in his Italian studio space. Guitar, bass, percussions. Sam later makes the production and added keyboard solos and put together the vibes into what is this new EP.

The girl voice comes from NINFA. It’s the classic studio story: Ninfa is a singer and DJ and friend of Sam. She was hanging at the studio while Sam was finishing these tracks. She stated to sing along... the words came up spontaneously… so they decided to record her and finally decided to keep them. The vibe was too good. Why talk English if u can do it better: in Italian! :)

This is second for Toy Tonics after his Sport House EP from last year. Sam also appeared on the solo record of Joel Holmes on Toy Tonics. Together with Kapote Modica he co-produced and made the beats on that record. Now Sam is back with this pure Italian EP. Inclusive remixes by new German artists Gome and Italian Musemeci - known to many from his fabulous Italo-trance releases on Diynamic records.
