Raise the alarm! Sound the Essential Tunes Klaxon!! (adopts Manc drawl): Call the Cops!!! Yes siree, 'tis true – the inimitable D-Nox and Beckers are back on Selador! And they have a special guest in tow! The Dynamic Deutsche Duo has delivered several stellar contributions to the Seladorian catalogue – and this latest double-header is a very welcome and characteristically powerful return, with Lexer the cherry on the icing on the collab cake. 'True Peak' is true peak time (but of course). It rocks straight from the off, as a burbling bassline explodes out of the starting blocks, all mean, moody and magnificent. Slowly but oh-so surely it is aided and abetted by a veritable plethora of memorable hooks, starting with a breathy snatched vocal, building to a keyboard riff from the techno gods. Uh-oh! Lexer has been added to the squad, and all bets are off. 'Conquista' is set to conquer all in its path. Everything about this tune will make you smile broadly and shake yer hips without even realising. From the so infectious congo-esque intro via the jittering one note riff, funky percussive frills and squelchy bassline to the ravemungous hands in the air crescendo, it's a dancefloor call to arms.

A Dynamic Collaboration Spanning Two Decades Emerging in the mid-2000s, D-Nox & Beckers quickly became synonymous with progressive house and techno, captivating audiences with their innovative sound and energy. Together, Christian Wedekind (D-Nox) and Frank Beckers have spent over 20 years perfecting a blend of infectious grooves and seamless production that has made them one of the most enduring and influential duos in the electronic music world. Prior to their collaboration, both D-Nox and Beckers had already established themselves as accomplished producers and DJs. D-Nox, a fixture in Germanys 90s techno scene, brought his deep understanding of dancefloor dynamics and years of experience running his successful label, Sprout Music. Meanwhile, Frank Beckers, with a background in classical music composition, introduced a refined musicality that became the signature of their joint sound. Special Collaborations for a Special Album To celebrate their milestone, D-Nox & Beckers have enlisted some of the finest talents in the electronic music scene: Seth Schwarz, a virtuoso violinist and producer, brings a symphonic touch to the track New Life, merging classical music elements with pulsating electronic beats for a truly unique listening experience. Italian progressive house maestro Gai Barone lends his signature dark and atmospheric sound to Acid, a track that explores deeper, more emotive layers. Lil Magdalen, known for her evocative vocals, adds a hauntingly beautiful dimension to Animals, blending soulful melodies with D-Nox & Beckers rich soundscapes. Collaborating with these artists brought a fresh perspective to our music, said Frank Beckers. Each one brought their unique energy and creativity, making this album a celebration of both our past and our future.

André Moret makes his debut on Sudbeat with a brace of originals, including remix support from German prog supremos D-Nox and Beckers. \n\nClassically trained in piano with a penchant for engineering, André is riding a wave of inspiration after a series of incredible releases for Sprout, Balance Music, and Melody of the Soul, to name a few. His collaboration project with D-Nox continues to perform and has garnered widespread DJ support from 'El Maestro' to Nick Warren and John Digweed. \n\nOpening with 'Gaxyda', the warm Moret sound welcomes you in like an old friend. Rubbery bass, airy sweeps and the promise of an enveloping pad sparks all the feels. Resolutely dancefloor focused, and eminently electronic, 'Gaxyda' takes on an almost shamanic guise as it reveals its melodic secrets. For their teutonic update, the mighty D-Nox and Beckers smooth out the ride for a deeper, stripped back vibe. \n\nNext up, 'Kyron' begins innocently before dramatically coming to life midway. Twisted sonics take you in unexpected directions, all cemented by a powerful percussive framework. Arps take over at that midway totally transforming your expectations. Creative and fresh, this is the new sound of progressive house.
