Adriatique releases Palm Of Your Hands

2026-10-02T00:00:00Z

Adriatique haven't put a record out on Rendezvous Sound before now.

'Palm Of Your Hands' is out 18 September 2026. Adriatique are a Swiss pair working in melodic house and techno, with a reputation few acts in the genre can match. It follows 'Closer', a collaboration with fellow producer GENESI, the duo's previous release.

The production leans on dense, textured atmosphere and a vocal that carries real feeling, the sort of detail that has become a signature for the pair. Melodic layers stack carefully against a rhythm built to move a room, and the hooks climb toward something euphoric by the time they land. It's built to reward a close listen as much as a night out.

Rendezvous Sound has also released music by Broken Hill, Kolter and JØRD, and 'Palm Of Your Hands' brings Adriatique into that catalogue with the same layered melodies and club rhythm that have shaped the duo's recent work. It's a new label home. The vocal and the rising hooks still sit at the centre of the track.

Cloonee releases Back Of The Club on Ministry of Sound Recordings

2026-09-25T00:00:00Z

Cloonee has moved beyond individual club releases, selling out headline shows before bringing ‘Back Of The Club’ to a new label.

The record arrives through Ministry of Sound Recordings on 16 September 2026, giving Cloonee his first release for the label while extending an already busy release year for Cloonee.

The change follows ‘Get Up And Dance,’ which came through Cloonee’s own Hellbent Records as his previous release, making the new label home a clear shift in his release path.

The record keeps to Cloonee’s club-focused sound, with tech house shaping its identity and the dancefloor at its centre, continuing the direction that has accompanied his rise.

That focus carries into the next phase of Cloonee’s rollout, keeping the new record pointed at the dancefloor.

Hellbent has expanded around Cloonee’s growing audience, taking the label into its own events.

Hear it below. The release contains one track.

Maceo Plex announces Monster on Rekids

2026-09-01T00:00:00Z

Maceo Plex has two labels of his own to answer to, which is what makes the destination of his newest EP the detail worth stopping on. The American producer oversees both Ellum Audio and Lone Romantic. He's put this one out through somebody else's imprint entirely.

Monster EP landed on 28 August through Rekids, Radio Slave's label, where Maceo Plex hasn't released anything before.

The release takes its name from its title track, while the one behind it hands a vocal to Baby Monsta before driving 'Baby Monster' through a dense weld of electro and techno.

That collision isn't new ground for Maceo Plex, who's spent years building a musical world of his own in which the borders between house, techno and electro have never held.

The EP follows The Plan, the most recent record to carry his name.

It's streaming now, so cue it up before the weekend.

Stay Golden announces Silent Covenant

2026-08-23T00:00:00Z

Stay Golden has built virtual worlds, Burning Man structures and a place inside TOTEM Society, and now he's building his first record for All Day I Dream.

Silent Covenant, seven tracks, came out August 14 on Lee Burridge's All Day I Dream imprint. It's his long-awaited debut there.

The record still carries the emotion and sense of escape the label's known for. But Stay Golden leans harder into rhythm, a funk-inflected, groove-first strain of indie dance with real emphasis on movement. That's a different register for All Day I Dream.

The album opens on the title track, then runs through 'Fragments Of A Dream', 'RITUAL PAUSE' and 'Stay With Me' as solo work before handing the back half to collaborators, Alexey Union, Broken Hill and Kinky Sound among them.

It's trust running underneath all of it, tracing back to a night in Moscow.

Stay Golden first stood in the crowd at All Day I Dream there in 2016. Ten years on, he's the one with the album out on the label.

Asked what shaped the record, Stay Golden pointed to the people on it: "The relationships that shaped me most were the ones formed while creating something together."

Monolink shares What You Running From

2026-08-21T00:00:00Z

Monolink follows 'The Silence' with a new single called 'What You Running From', which lands on Embassy One, the label he's called home since 2017.

'The Beauty Of It All' was the prior release; 'What You Running From' arrived on Embassy One on 21 August.

Synths bend and swirl through the track, circling a percussion line that locks into something close to hypnotic. Underneath it all sits Monolink's voice, bittersweet in the way it usually is on his records, carrying more weight than the groove around it lets on, right up until it pulls a listener onto the floor.

He's spent years building a reputation as one of the more distinctive voices in the genre, which is what this one leans on even while it reaches for something new, the kind of record that still sounds like him. There's room in it to dance and to feel something at the same time, the sort of single that lets a listener hear a piece of themselves in it.

It's streaming everywhere already. His next show is at Karrusel.

Anyma and Volkoder Share 'Other Dimension' as AeDEN Records Launches

2026-08-19T00:00:00Z

Anyma and Volkoder have released 'Other Dimension,' a new single that's arriving through AeDEN Records, the label Anyma launches today.

Volkoder built his name over two decades and he's now one of Brazil's most dependable house exports, working out of São Paulo. Anyma wrote and produced the track himself, stacking cinematic, techno-leaning production over Volkoder's own percussive touch.

Anyma, born Matteo Milleri, is using the release to introduce ÆDEN Records itself; the label's debut compilation, 'ÆDEN: Digital Renaissance Vol. I,' arrives in late August through Interscope/Virgin.

"Building a community of artists and creatives has always been an important goal for my artistic path," Anyma said. It's how he frames ÆDEN, a continuation of that idea.

The [UNVRS] framework leans on real-time interplay between architecture, tech, sound and crowd, and Anyma says that same structure now runs the label; the compilation itself is pitched as a snapshot of an Ibiza summer, timed to his second residency at the venue, following a sold-out 2025 run.

The single follows 'Unique Moment', the newest record he'd put his name to.

He's bringing the ÆDEN live show to ARC Festival in Chicago on September 6.

David Ramano Returns to When Stars Align With 'Pleasure'

2026-08-05T00:00:00Z

Raised in London's underground scene, David Ramano built his name across clubs and radio before landing his new Afro House EP, 'Pleasure,' on When Stars Align.

David Ramano's roots trace back to the pirate radio scene of the 1990s. Sets across the UK, Spain, Sweden and Canada followed. That's years spent in clubs and on radio, building toward a catalogue that's now past two million streams.

The EP marks a return to When Stars Align, the label he's called home since 2024, following 'The Journey Of Love EP.' It's built from warm chord work, detailed drum programming and layered vocal parts, swinging between brighter Afro House moments, heavier rhythmic stretches and lighter melodic runs that suit both daytime sets and late-night rooms. The title track carries warm piano lines and thick synth work under airy vocals. A groove built for golden-hour listening.

It's a three-track release: 'Pleasure' opens on that daytime feel, 'Broken' turns toward deeper club territory, and 'My Eyes' closes things on a more uplifting note.

Chus & Ceballos Release 'Somos Uno,' Their First Music Together Since Reuniting

2026-08-02T00:00:00Z

Chus & Ceballos have spent over a quarter of a century bridging Latin rhythm with underground house music, and 'Somos Uno,' their first release together since they've reunited this year, is out now via Stereo Productions.

The duo's hiatus began during the pandemic, and it didn't end until early 2026, when they got back together. It's their first record since then. They haven't slowed down since: the Reunion Tour has already carried them to more than fifty cities, including Montreal, Toronto, Madrid and Barcelona.

"For us, this track represents unity, not only the connection between different cultures through rhythm and dance, but also our own journey as a duo," Ceballos said.

The track's built on rolling percussion and tribal rhythm, and it keeps their signature sound while leaning into a fuller, glossier production this time around. It's still the same blend of Latin tradition and house music the pair have called the Iberican Sound.

The Reunion Tour has also stopped in New York, Miami, Los Angeles and Chicago this year.

Mathame Finally Release 'Follow' After a Year of Festival Buzz

2026-07-29T00:00:00Z

Known for a cinematic sound built up over more than a decade as Italian brothers, Mathame have released 'Follow,' their long-awaited collaboration with vocalist BONN.

The track spent more than a year as one of the duo's most talked-about unreleased records, played out at the likes of Tomorrowland, EDC, Sziget Festival and UNVRS Ibiza, where thousands of fans around the world sang it back long before it ever had an official release.

'Follow' pairs Mathame's cinematic production with a vocal turn from BONN that's instantly recognizable. At its core it's a song about connection, his lyrics giving a very human weight to the duo's wide-open sound. It now arrives as one of the most defining releases of their career so far.

It's Mathame's latest release on MATHAME, following 'Meet Me.' The duo have been putting out music since 2015, and 'Follow' landed 24 July.

Michael Bibi Turns a Familiar Ringtone Into 'Mobile Groove' on ELOVATE

2026-07-17T00:00:00Z

Michael Bibi has been releasing music since 2013, and his newest release for ELOVATE, the label that's been his home since 2025, is 'Mobile Groove,' which follows 'Front & Back Seat.'

The idea didn't start in a studio. Bibi has said his brother forwarded him a clip built around a familiar ringtone, and it stuck with him long enough that he built a track around a sound almost anyone with a phone would recognize.

That notification tone became the hook, laid over a steady, rolling club beat, and the fusion doesn't take itself too seriously: the lyrics carry a real sense of humor, and that's not something every ringtone gets to keep.

Bibi is also behind Solid Grooves, which keeps a residency running at DC10 in Ibiza most Thursdays this summer. You can stream it now, or you'll find the download just as easily. Play it loud enough to catch the joke, because it's worth hearing that way.

Lee Burridge Shares His First Solo Single Since 2021, 'Fading Out'

2026-07-16T00:00:00Z

A four-decade veteran of melodic house and techno, Lee Burridge follows Bianco Montana with 'Fading Out,' a new single on his own All Day I Dream.

Burridge has spent that stretch turning house and techno into something with real feeling, played and heard well beyond his own club nights. All Day I Dream, the label he's built, has been home since 2011.

'Fading Out' settles into something warm and unhurried, ethereal textures drifting over a deep house pulse that never rushes.

It's the first time in five years he's put out a solo record under his own name. The timing lines up with a look back and a push forward at once: a new documentary, Sound of a Dream, traces where he started, while All Day I Dream itself keeps growing into something bigger. Five years is a long wait for a solo record.

Last year that meant 'November Snowflakes' with his longtime collaborator Lost Desert, and 'Bianco Montana' with Sunora, both part of the label's A Winter Sampler VII compilation. The label's 2026 tour has already run through Brooklyn, Barcelona, Montenegro, Cape Town and Ibiza, with St. Tropez, Los Angeles, Montreal and Australia still ahead.

It's out now on All Day I Dream. It landed 10 July 2026.

Chris Avantgarde Launches Hyperreal, His Own Label and Debut Album

2026-07-15T00:00:00Z

"Hyperreal marks the launch of my new label and debut album, combining all my influences and music I play live into one coherent project," Chris Avantgarde said.

German-born, UK-based, Chris Avantgarde has spent the summer commanding stages at Ultra, EDC and Tomorrowland; it's been a genuine breakout run, one that also brought collaborations with Anyma and Adam Beyer and B2B sets alongside Enrico Sanguiliano and Kevin de Vries.

His first single, 'Energy,' from the forthcoming album is out now, arriving after a catalogue built almost entirely on other people's labels: Afterlife, Experts Only, Drumcode, Dirtybird. Hyperreal is both the label and the album; it puts him in a role he hasn't held before, label executive.

He's been with Hyperreal / Boom.Records since 2025; Rhythm Check was his most recent release.

Through the label, he's planning collaborations, live events and licensing beyond the music itself, giving other artists room to experiment. Hyperreal landed 10 July 2026. Stream it below.

Skrillex and Solomun team up on 'Rumpta'

2026-07-06T00:00:00Z

Skrillex and Solomun have released 'Rumpta', a first-ever pairing between the two, out now via Solomun's Diynamic Music.

The two first played it live together at Solomun's +1 residency in Ibiza last year, and had been teasing it in sets ever since without a proper release. Its arrival lines up with another back-to-back between them at Pacha Ibiza, part of that same +1 night, so the timing is no accident.

It's a house-leaning cut built around vocal hooks, closer to club Skrillex than his pop side and run through Solomun's own Ibiza sound. The build favors a slow dancefloor climb over any sudden drop, and it leans darker and heavier than the usual Solomun single. Still fits a summer dancefloor fine.

Skrillex released his surprise, Latin-rooted album 'SOMA' in June and launched a new platform, CONTRA, in Berlin the same stretch. Solomun's label turns 20 this year.

It landed 1 July 2026.

Lost Desert Returns to All Day I Dream With Drift

2026-07-01T00:00:00Z

The record settles into something warm and unhurried before any name arrives, drifting toward a patient, dreamlike groove.

Lost Desert has released Drift, a new EP on All Day I Dream. Aiola, the vocalist who opens the collection, sets that tone immediately; her voice rides above floating melodies while the groove takes its time reaching full stride. It's a patient opening, the kind that trusts a listener to stay through the build instead of demanding attention at the first bar.

Paul Ross joins him for the record's second half, and together they built 'Shooting Stars' and its extended mix around bright, layered synths, pulling the EP toward something more radiant by the close. It's a small pivot, but a real one, and the warmth stays even as the tempo opens up.

Lost Desert first joined All Day I Dream in 2016, releasing 'Lingala' alongside Lee Burridge, and Drift now follows Saudade as his next release on the label.

That partnership's kept running alongside his own catalogue. Last year he paired with Lee again on 'November Snowflakes,' the same year he released his solo Saudade EP. Solo records like Drift sit next to the collaborative 'Lost Desert & Friends' series, two strands he's kept running side by side. He's kept busy beyond the studio too, featuring on the label's A Winter Sampler VII compilation earlier this year and playing showcases in Cape Town, Montenegro and Barcelona, with a stop in Georgia still ahead.

Drift landed 26 June 2026. Stream it below.

NevadaSYSTEM and Qian Qiao Release 'Above The Noise' on VASA Records

2026-06-10T00:00:00Z

NevadaSYSTEM and Qian Qiao have released 'Above The Noise,' a new single on VASA Records.

The record starts quiet. A hazy stretch of atmosphere, then the drums settle into a steady four-count pulse. A female vocal takes the middle of the mix, heavy with reverb, and it's tucked in behind the beat instead of pushing out front.

It's a house record built for late nights, not big rooms; there's a cinematic, introspective quality to it that doesn't tip into aggression, closer to a slow set than a headline slot.

NevadaSYSTEM describes the genre in similar terms. "Melodic house is about movement, about going somewhere," the artist said. "So naturally you're asking where did we come from, where are we now."

The project's been releasing music since March 2022, a run that took in Blanco y Negro and Enormous Tunes before NevadaSYSTEM landed at VASA Records in June 2023; NevadaSYSTEM has played live this year in Brooklyn and Dallas, including a set at Silo.

Amelie Lens breaks a decade-long streak with 'AURA'

2026-05-23T00:00:00Z

Belgian DJ and producer Amelie Lens, who has been releasing music for a decade without ever putting out a full-length album, has announced her debut record 'AURA', due 4 September on her own label, EXHALE.

Ahead of the album, she's shared 'our frequency,' a new single that finds her handling the vocals herself. That mix of extremes, big and small, glossy and unpolished, has run through her music and her sets for years, and it's an early sign of where the full record is headed. Lens leans into it directly on this one, pairing her usual peak-time drive with a softer, more melodic and emotional side.

That same range was on display earlier this year during her first-ever back-to-back set with Sara Landry, at Ultra Miami's Resistance Megastructure, where she played both 'falling into acid dreams' and 'whatever you do'.

Lens has described the album in her own words. "AURA is about the connection between the crowd and me," she said, and she's also called it "the most honest version of myself I've ever shared." It's arriving digitally and as a double LP on blue-and-white vinyl.

'AURA' will run eleven tracks in total.

Parra For Cuva releases sixth album 'Nacar'

2026-05-15T00:00:00Z

Parra For Cuva's sixth studio album, 'Nacar,' is now out via Parra for Cuva.

It arrives alongside 'Selva Selva,' the lead single, which comes with an official video shot during a sold-out show at Drumsheds, the London venue.

Parra For Cuva put it simply: "'Selva Selva' is the first single from my upcoming album 'Nacar.'"

Several of those shows will run a two-tier ticketing setup, meant to widen who actually gets in the room: a reduced-price option for fans who can't pay full price, offset by others willing to pay more. It's a nice idea, worth knowing if you're weighing a ticket. It kicks off with a Berlin release event on May 16th, ahead of a European run that spans September and October, with stops planned in Hamburg, Amsterdam, Zurich, Berlin, Paris and Prague.

The album's twelve tracks lean on a handful of guests: Cile turns up on 'Hang Glow,' CRi and Orbit share 'Too Close To Echo,' and PALLADIAN and Aukai join for 'Huda.' Its title track pairs Parra For Cuva with Nathan Ball, who's back again later on 'Cold Heart.'

Purple Disco Machine Builds 'Disco Cherry' on a 1980s Kasso Sample

2026-05-08T00:00:00Z

Purple Disco Machine has spent his career aiming disco at contemporary dancefloors, which is what makes the source of 'Disco Cherry', out on 8 May, worth pausing on.

The record starts with somebody else's record. 'Walkman' is a Kasso track from the 1980s, out of the Italo-disco years, and everything else here is stacked on top of it. Percussion doesn't stop rolling under it. The groove is funk. Snatches of voice arrive over the top, one of which keeps returning as an instruction to party that doesn't let up for the length of the mix.

'Disco Cherry' arrives ahead of a residency at Pacha, thirteen Thursday nights running the length of the summer, which is a long enough run to build a room around. It's the first record he's dedicated to a residency at the club.

Born Tino Piontek, he'd grown up in East Germany and built the project on underground floors there before it turned into something international. Three billion streams. A Grammy for remix work, a stack of Diamond awards, and productions including 'Hypnotized' and 'Substitution' behind him before any of this. He's also the second best-selling artist in Beatport's history.

It follows 'Ghost Town', the record that came right before it.

The sleeve puts him behind the decks at a party staged in the 1970s, drawn from Pacha's own early years, back when the club had only just opened and the music had not yet reached most of the places it would end up. Disco, back on the island.

Amelie Lens releases new single 'Whatever You Do' via Sony Music

2026-04-15T00:00:00Z

Amelie Lens, the Belgian techno artist who's spent much of this year stacking one release on top of another, has put out a new single through Sony Music called 'Whatever You Do.'

The track starts small. A light vocal line drifts over hushed, almost tender atmosphere before the low end creeps in underneath it. Then it turns, the way a lot of her records do, into something that's built for a packed room, a synth bass climbing until the whole thing tips into a hard, driving techno peak.

It follows two of her other 2026 singles. One is 'Young Forever,' also through Sony. The other is 'Falling Into Acid Dreams,' put out on her own label, EXHALE. She's brought that same imprint to London's fabric. That came right after one of Miami Music Week's most talked-about sets, a back-to-back with Sara Landry.

She's back in Santiago later this year for another headline show, more than 12,000 people expected, the same city where she first brought her AURA live production to a stage last year.

Chris Stussy Finally Releases 'Darkness,' a Year After Debuting It in DJ Sets

2026-03-18T00:00:00Z

Chris Stussy had been playing an unfinished version of 'Darkness' out on the road for roughly a year, with fans repeatedly asking him to name the track, and it's finally out on Up The Stuss, released 13 March.

Stussy, whose real name is Niels Christian Steenbergen, has been putting out music since 2014. The single follows 'Sakura' as his most recent release on Up The Stuss, the label he's called home since 2021.

'Darkness' is also the lead single from Stussy's upcoming debut album, 'Lost, Found & Forgotten…', due April 3rd on the same label. The announcement lands as his touring schedule ramps up, with Up The Stuss shows at Pacha Ibiza alongside sets booked at EDC Las Vegas, Sónar Barcelona, Creamfields and a Boiler Room set in London this July.

The track stays rooted in the club while carrying a more reflective mood, signaling both progression and continuity as Stussy heads into album territory for the first time.

It's the sound Stussy's crowds have already been chasing for the better part of a year, now finally out to everyone else.
