2026 marks a milestone: 20 years of Rebirth Records. A decade after the iconic compilation curated by the maestro Larry Heard (aka Mr. Fingers) we are proud to present Rebirth 20, a special anniversary project celebrating two decades of sound, vision and evolution. A limited-edition double vinyl, scheduled for official release on May 15 (with exclusive preview for Record Store Day on April 18), followed by two digital parts across June and July, featuring new remixes of some of the label's most iconic tracks alongside rare gems that may have quietly slipped through the cracks, now ready to shine again. Names like Alva Noto, Glenn Underground, Makèz, Luciano & Michel Cleis, Cromby, Terrence Parker, Martinou, DJ Babatr, RSS Disco, Liquid Liquid, John Ciafone, Red Axes, Silicone Soul, Cengiz, Nick Holder, Einka are included in the package and more to be announced. A dialogue between generations connected by a shared belief in timeless sound. Founded in 2006 by the visionary Daniele 'Shield' Contrini, Rebirth has grown from a passion project in Brescia (Italy) into a global reference point for quality, creativity and authenticity in electronic music. Over the years the label has nurtuerd and championed before others forward-thinking artists such as Blond:ish, Rampa, Danilo Plessow, Jimi Jules and Argy while also releasing music from visionaries such as Agoria, Luciano, Michel Cleis, Dave Lee, Butch, Chaim, Emanuel Satie, Marc Romboy, Freaks (Luke Solomon & Justin Harris). Alongside these, Rebirth has built a strong in-house family of exceptional talents including NUfrequency, Robytek, Chromatic Filters, Corrado Bucci, Blue Mondays and Gianluca Pegoiani. "Where I started, and where I'm going. Twenty years of music transforming a seed into a new universe". Rebirth looks to the future by returning to its original spirit, to its primordial creative energy. "Rebirth 20 was born from the most authentic place in my history." Daniele recalls "The visual concept is based on a series of childhood drawings I made when I was 3/4 years old, which my dear mother carefully preserved and gave back to me last year before passing away. They have become the emotional core of this project, symbolizing my creative origins, transformed into the future." Two decades on, Rebirth remains what it has always been: a place where music, art and emotion converge. A label that never stops moving forward while staying true to its soul.

We are really excited to present 'Live at RJ', the new single from Butch and Chriss Vogt. 'The Infamous' and 'Bliss' have become two classics in the labels catalogue, and they are finally back in the studio to produce new material. With over 20 years consumed by a thirst for electronic music, Butch has released on leading imprints such as Desolat, Cocoon, Rekids, Sei Es Drum and beyond, while maintaining a solid DJ schedule thats seen him open the minds of crowds at Fabric, Time Warp. Son of the renowned German violinist K.Vogt, C.Vogt started as an academic student of piano and saxophone, but the discovery of the electronic music has given new impetus to his creative personality. Butch saw the potential and raw talent and they started to collaborate on several projects. With a cinematic style that seamlessly blends classical music, the trippier side of techno and deep house, C.Vogt and Butch mixes old and new, fearlessly breaks down barriers and challenges the norms of what contemporary dance music feels and sounds like. 'Live at RJ' is another infectious tune from the duo, where elements from modern electronic music and classic leave subtle traces in both melodies and atmospheres, with a breakdown that build in intensity and will drive you to heaven. A track that will surely lead us to 2019 !
