Aiwaska returns with his second full-length album, Truth & Love, landing on his own imprint Aiwaska Planet. Expanding on his unmistakable sonic identity, the 7-track LP explores the space between house and tech house, enriched with touches of electro and indie dance, delivering a journey that feels both club-ready and deeply immersive. Truth & Love features a combination of solo works and standout collaborations with Milletrax, Prana Flow, Thomas Gandey, and G.Zamora-each adding their own character while seamlessly fitting into Aiwaska's cohesive vision. The result is a versatile yet unified body of work that reflects both artistic depth and club functionality.

In the notoriously fast-moving world of music, such longevity can be hard to find, especially in an era of short attention spans and soundbite culture. It thus only seems right and proper to hail Dave Seaman, Steve Parry and their Selador imprint for reaching its 200th release. To put that into some sort of context, that's way more music than the two previous era-defining labels Dave was involved with, Stress in the 90s and Audio Therapy in the 00s, combined. The 12 years Steve has spent co-helming Selador eclipses the time he spent front and centre at the legendarily influential 3 Beat store. All this at a time when the music marketplace has never been more saturated or harder to navigate in the quest to gain visibility for music you believe in. Steve & Dave don't need to do this. Both well into their fourth decade in the acid house trenches, each possesses an impressive CV, and is not short of work. But nothing drives these two electronic music titans more than the search for new music, the buzz of hearing something special for the first time, and the hunger to help bring it into the world, nurture its development, and share it with as many like-minded souls as possible. Selador has proved to be a significant player in terms of sourcing and developing new talent in the arena they dub "house, techno and all flavours in between", as is shown across those 200 releases. It has also proved to be a trusty vehicle for Steve and Dave to release many of their own productions, the benchmark set by their peers on the label roster driving the duo to ever greater heights. It is thus fitting that the 200th Release Project features 12 brand new and exclusive remixes courtesy of friends old and new, all of whom have reworked some of the bosses' classic productions. Spread across three thrilling 4 track EPs released throughout August 2025, this celebratory collection brings together an array of talent from around the world covering a multitude of genres within the electronic club realm.
