Deeptrax Records was founded by Chris Roorda in the Netherlands back in 2004. The label focuses on the deeper side of electronica and eclectic leftfield dance jams, exploring those spaces between deeper house and techno, with hints from the past and a strong vision of the future.

After the success of The Vault Vol. 1, Reggie Dokes returns with The Vault Vol. 2.5, delivering a deeper exploration of his signature deep and soulful house sound. With nine meticulously curated tracks, this release offers a continuation of the Detroit-rooted sonic journey that fans have come to love. Dokes' mastery of deep house, infused with elements of soul, is on full display, each track a testament to his unique ability to channel emotion into rhythm and melody.

With over two decades of influential contributions to the house and techno scene, Dokes remains a key figure in the global underground movement. The Vault Vol. 2.5 picks up where Vol. 1 left off, presenting a new collection of beats crafted to evoke both reflection and movement.

Each track is a pulsating blend of lush harmonies, warm basslines, and hypnotic rhythms that transport listeners to the heart of Detroit’s dance floors. This collection also retains a strong visual identity, as the artwork once again comes from Dokes’ son, Nile Dokes, whose creative vision perfectly encapsulates the raw and soulful energy of the music. The Vault Vol. 2.5 is not just a continuation, but an evolution of Reggie Dokes' sound—a deep dive into the uncharted layers of his musical vault.

Whether you're a longtime follower or a new listener, The Vault Vol. 2.5 promises an immersive and soulful experience, solidifying Reggie Dokes' place as a torchbearer for Detroit house music.

With 'Universe Speaks', Reggie Dokes is at the helm of the third release for Still Techno. He is one of the best (and one of our favorite) producers to come out of Detroit and his discography is as massive as his own legendary label Psychostasia Recordings. It is rare for Reggie to drop 4 deep techno tracks on one serving but here we are. All tracks featured on 'Universe Speaks' are an ode to the dancefoor and Detroit, where melodies, jazz, percussions and real electronic music collide to create a new and subtile soundscape.

Kick starting the new year, Cinematic’s latest release comes from label debutant Reggie Dokes in the form of “Child of The Sun EP”. An inspired artist hailing from Detroit, Reggie spoils us with three funk fuelled cuts via the motor city! An inspired artist through his association with Derrick May and Transmat, Reggie is one of the unsung heroes from Detroit who’s sole purpose has always been to concentrate on the music. His Psychotasia record label has been an outlet for releasing his signature sound of soul inspired deep house and techno that has gained him plaudits all over Europe. Recent guest appearances have seen Reggie release on esteemed labels such as Royal Oak, Kuumba and We Play House. The first track “Child of the sun” is a slow Techno burner fuelled with funk and electronic rhythms that builds, envoking vibrancy and colour before the bassline sets the tone in pummelling throughout the track. The second track aptly titled “Funk Below” further signifies Reggies versatility this time with a deeper mindset giving us the feeling of intimate night spots that are smoke filled with llow ceilings. Think browns and deep reds when listening to this and funk below that radar. Make Believe compliments the release thats a little leftfield but not to be ignored. Synth laden and downtempo, the hi hats whip away providing energy climaxing with clever arrangement of strings before the whole thing gets stripped down for a more heads down moment.

Four playful and emotive tracks without any of the modern club dogma's, however strongly rooted in the more then 30 year long tradition of our musical culture.

Sabre is giving us some personal music created from a subjective perspective evoking different kind of moods and emotions with their wide palette of sounds, rhythms and melodies. Even though this might be ''psychology for dummies'' you probably can say there is a heavy influence from their Portuguese culture and their hometown Lisbon.

But sticking to the facts... there is some wonderful and special music on this record!

Clone Royal Oak Series with its 24th release! And this time it's Canadian Gingy with vocals by singer Starving Yet Full. RAPT is an amazing vocal tune that doesn't follow the ''color by numbers'' dogmas. 2nd track is the equally exiting instrumental cut named VSCUS with abrasive lead synth twisting and turning over haunting strings and shimmering hihats in the best Detroit tradition. Serge & Tyrell team up for a remix version of RAPT. They deliver a straight forward, no nonsense powerful Dub mix!
