Berlins Limited White Label presents the vinyl debut of New York City-based composer, producer, and drummer Zachary Berns. A fixture of NYCs jazz and underground scenes, Berns has built a reputation through boundary-crossing projects (notably zbeeez and jazz/hip-hop collective poetic thrust), collaborations with rising artists across R&B, jazz, and electronic music, and acclaimed appearances at parties such as Soul in the Horn. With this record, he steps forward under his full name for the first time, delivering a statement that bridges his dual lineage in jazz and house/electronic/club music.

Heres Oh Yes! from New York-based composer, producer, and drummer Zachary Berns, out February 6, 2026. Known for slipping effortlessly between NYCs jazz circles and its underground electronic corners, Berns brings his blend of rhythmic instinct, textural detail, and hands-on musicianship to a project that feels personal, raw, and straight-up alive. Over the past few years, Zach has carved out his own unusual lane, bouncing between cross-genre collabs, experimental collectives, and forward-thinking R&B, jazz, and electronic scenes. With Oh Yes! he distills all of that experience into a tight, no-frills statement, born from months of back-and-forth ideas, late-night tweaks, and genuine creative chemistry with the Apparel Music crew. The EP runs on house-driven pulse, lo-fi grit, field recordings that sneak in like memories, and live playing you can practically see in motion. Its a sound stitched together with character, personality, and Zachs unmistakable, incredibly human touch. Every track has its own attitude, moving with instinct first, rules second. Oh Yes! is a snapshot of Zachary Berns in full evolution mode, and a testament to the shared spark that powered the work with the label. Its a release that celebrates experimentation, craft, and that warm, human, delightfully unpolished feel that cant be faked.
