Roman Kyn returns to Watergate Records with In Plain Sight Remixes, a concise two-track release that revisits the original from last years Close The Door EP. The Whitesquare Remix pushes the track firmly into Indie Dance. A tighter groove, punchier bass and a clearer rhythmic drive give the track more movement and dancefloor focus, while the core mood and vocal-driven character of the original remain intact. Roman Kyns own RKs Sunwashed Edit takes a different path, leaning more into Melodic space. The arrangement opens up, the textures become warmer and more airy, and the emotional side of the track comes forward, giving the track a more reflective and uplifting feel. Together, the two versions show the flexibility of In Plain Sight, moving smoothly between functional Indie Dance energy and a more melodic, expressive interpretation.
The third installment is here with another strong selection of tasty organic, progressive and melodic house & techno records smoothly mixed by Robilardo.

GRATIS CLUB is a pure hit of unbridled Italo disco joy.
Brazilian ID ID is back on Diynamic. Together with Greggio, theyre crafted a two-tracker made for long, heated nights, full drinks and a dancefloor that never really empties. Higher is the spark - rolling, rattling, slightly unhinged, with trippy vocals that take over the system and dont ask for permission. Up In My Sights follows with flashing, disorienting energy, like lights cutting in and out while the dancefloor melts into one big blur. Sweat on your skin, sand under your feet, warm air, no sense of time. These tracks are built for big moments and nights that refuse to cool down.

Since arriving at the back end of 2023, Chris Massey's Thief Of Time quickly evolved from a solo project into a live 3 piece alongside fellow electronic explorers; Lady Lady and Mike Grubert. The trio quickly played sold out solo shows at The Golden Lion, The Yard & YES with festival appearances and supporting the likes of Lindstrom and Hifi Sean & David McAlmont. We Are Cosmic follows on from the semi-autobiographical predecessor 'Where Do I Belong?' and is a deeper voyage through neon nights with a retro-future soundtrack of stacked synths, lush, layered guitars and ethereal vocals by Massey and Lady Lady, who takes her place as an honorary Thief member on this release. Personal experiences of love, loss, deception, mental well-being and the ever-evolving gentrification of Manchester City Centre along with a response to many gate keepers within are all challenged on the E.P. Where dark is light, light is dark and emotions are electronic, We Are Cosmic is a natural evolution of The Thief Of Time with elements of contemporaries like New Order, Pet Shop Boys, The Fuck Buttons, Chromatics and The Cocteau Twins being present alongside current inspirations such as Nabihah Iqbal and Night Tapes.
Having got us all hot under the feathered boa with the seductive Galaxie, Andrew Armstrongs Daddy Squad returns to Eskimo Recordings with two new tracks, Longer The Day and Double Love Attack, disco house heaters whose live instrumentation, analogue synths and joyous massed vocals are both guaranteed to keep dancefloor fires burning throughout the winter months. This time around Armstrong finds himself in the company of Berlin based US singer Snax, and in Double Love Attack theyve crafted a celebration of the simple, yet increasingly under fire, joy of sexual expression and hooking up with hot people in even hotter clubs. Twenty years on since his last appearance on Eskimo, Snaxs vocals and piano have lost none of their power and in Armstrongs euphoric heavy disco house have found the perfect foil, leading us deep, deep down in to a sensual meltdown. If Double Love Attacks focus is on all the fun stuff that happens inside our clubs, Longer The Day looks out at the forces who are increasingly targeting these spaces and those for whom they provide a safe haven. With its roots in the underground Black and LGBTQ+ scenes of the 1970s, disco has always had as much a militant streak as a hedonistic one, and Longer The Day is a worthy addition to the rich canon of protest disco, a call to arms that thanks to its bumping rhythms and stirring stabs will keep you dancing as much as it will in the good fight ahead.
Darlyn Vlys marks a milestone with the Stoppage Time EP, Polariss 40th release, delivering a duo of tracks that showcase her mastery of tension and immersive electronic energy. The lead track, Stoppage Time, blends rising synths and perfectly crafted drops with tight, percussive techno-driven stabs and rhythmic chord hits, adding precise, syncopated accents that give the track a subtle groove while maintaining its dark, driving momentum. Hypnotic vocal textures deepen the atmosphere, creating a cinematic crescendo that merges with club-ready energy. Seven Stars hits even harder with a rumbling, powerful bass that anchors the track, while entrancing vocals drift through a vast, cosmic expanse infused with futuristic atmospheres. The track highlights Darlyn Vlyss evolving command of layered rhythms and dynamic textures, balancing introspective depth with a sharp, driving intensity. With this special 40th release, Darlyn Vlys blows out Polariss candle, celebrating the labels journey while delivering a forward-thinking, dark, and powerful electronic statement.
Siamese continues its 2026 run with a new EP from Beswerda, who makes his label debut with the three-track All for Me EP. The release moves between Melodic House and Indie Dance, keeping a clear focus on groove and club functionality. All for Me leads with a warm Melodic House feel and steady forward drive. Oscilla takes a more indie-leaning direction, slightly looser in structure while staying rhythm-focused. Funk Residue closes the EP, carrying a tighter groove and direct club energy. Beswerda is a Rotterdam-based Dutch artist whose sound blends minimal and melodic techno influences, shaping a direct but emotional approach to his productions. The EP fits naturally into the Siamese catalogue while showing a compact range of styles across the three tracks.
Berlin-based duo Blue Eyes Blinded return with 'False Prophets', a two-track release that delves into darker and more introspective territory. Continuing to refine their self-styled sound of Alternative House, Alexander Schug and Daniel Jaeger deliver music that blurs the line between emotional storytelling and club energy. The title track, 'False Prophets,' unfolds with haunting vocals, cinematic textures, and an undeniable pulse: a reflection on disillusionment in turbulent times. 'Shadows In My Room' contrasts this with a deeper, more intimate vibe, layering warmth and melancholy over intricate rhythms. Known for fusing heartfelt songwriting with Berlin's electronic heartbeat, Blue Eyes Blinded once again craft songs that feel alive: raw, immersive, and deeply human.
The second part of Picture follows, with Volkoder unveiling the next three tracks of the EP. So Am I leans into a catchy, sing-along sound, with a trumpet hook and vocal that give the track a character thats impossible to miss. Dont Stop taps straight into early-90s Ibiza territory, all sun-soaked energy and carefree vibes that make you want to pop a bottle. Afterglow pulls everything together, blending those feelings with full peak-time drive and landing as the EPs energetic high point

Heidenreich & Ludviq team up for the next release on Play Pal, with a 7 tracker. The title track, Erebus, which also includes an instrumental version, enlists the vocal talent of Cali Burton, rattle snake percussion, new wave guitars and hypnosis inducing atmospherics. Gotatta is a more heads down affair with modular bleeps and bit-crushed squelches, bent through trippy delays- all melding together into a groove destined to grab you and pull you deeper into it. No Sentimental, slows the pace, ramps up the drama. Heidenreich & Ludviq lean into the timbales, the congas and into the tension, which courses through its veins. Thomass Jackson takes Erebus and restructures and remodels it into a meaty slab of psychedelic mutant disco that struts, swaggers and confidently walks the edges of the erratic and the erotic. Meanwhile, Play Pal mainstays, Motel 77 rewire Gotatta, turning it into in a deeper, dubbier, acid laden track that builds and builds. Senoras take on No Sentimental straddles the line between melody and dissonance with a euphoric breakdown, analogue arpeggios and a real3ammoment.
Glasgow Underground welcomes Kevin McKay & Hotswing with Something About You — a groove-led house record inspired by the mid-2000s sound that shaped a generation of dancefloors. Built around a hypnotic bassline, subtle synth hooks, and a reflective vocal, the track draws on the spirit of early Get Physical releases, Mylo, and Italo-leaning electronic house — music that balanced groove, emotion, and movement. Sitting between deep house and indie dance, Something About You is designed for that moment when the floor is full, the night is moving, and subtle energy matters more than drops. Genres: Indie Dance Key Use: 1–2am, post-warm-up, momentum-building sets For fans of: Mylo, early Get Physical, DJ T., M.A.N.D.Y., Linus Loves
The sunshine of Andalucia has come to the Bordello. The musical magpie that is Daniel Monaco arrives with just a hint of a Spanish accent and a daring record under his arm. Known for finding the intersections of boogie, disco, italo and house, Monaco is going that bit further with Manuel Rodriguez for the Flamenca EP. Melting the percussive drive of his machines with the spirit of Southern Spain, the four tracks on offer are a journey into a sound and style that is inspiringly original. Ruffled hi-hats and smooth basslines are the foundation for the title piece. The soul of the Sierra Nevada and the warmth of Granada pour forth through Rodriguezs unparalleled performance. The claps of Chicago are reimagined as an interplay of melody and rhythm awakens; the traditions of Flamenco married with a modern groove. Talent and technique are coupled with pure passion in the intense instrumentation of Fantasia before the flip shifts with Sinteme. The culture of Italy and Spain combine, taut string plucks peppered in handclaps before the Only Bees vocals descend. Ardent, the lyrics tell of our shared humanity through the dialect of Ischitella from the southern tip of Italy. The homes of our musicians are the inspiration for the finale. Blending the decadent splendour of Napoli with the old-world romance of Granada, Rodriguezs guitar is the focus of Granapoli. Bitter-sweet, blissful and sorrowful, a lone beat wandering through the winding melody that twins these great cities. From Italy and Andalucia to Amsterdam, a 12 like few others.
Uh Huh is the definitive statement of the new sound Luch is building via his creative platform, Gozar.

Already seeing support from top-tier selectors, "Uh Huh' represents a bold new chapter for the underground electronic Latin scene and a placeholder for Indie Dance Records

Clér Letiv, one of the minds behind ENACORDIA, delivers the labels first EP installment with a clear and uncompromising artistic vision. The release features three club-driven tracks that speak for themselves, before closing with a lullaby that reveals the capabilities of Ignacio Pérez Ampalio as a songwriter, deviating from dancefloor records to tender guitar arpeggios and slower tempos. Free Your Head functions as a creative ritual for Ignacio. Fearless lyrics and an unfiltered approach guiding a track made purely for fun, unconcerned with fitting in. A clear must for the dancefloor. As My Eyes See Her follows as an instrumental piece where the chords tell the story on their own. Timeless synth lines unfold over precise drum work, allowing the track to breathe naturally. Urgency leans into restraint and tension, slowly building momentum while keeping its structure deliberately simple. Closing the EP, I Dont Want To Leave sees Ignacio fully embracing his alternative rock and electronica influences. Hints of Radiohead surface through heavily distorted guitars and dense reverb, shaping a melancholic atmosphere. Here, the young Argentine explores themes of death, growing older, and a love meant to last forever. Altogether, the EP stands as a bold statement from both Ignacio and ENACORDIA—a decisive step in the right direction.
After his last EP Sunlight, Harry Kaze is back on Diynamic with his What U Need. The title track starts gently: soft percussion rolls in, light strings hang in the background and a vocal draws you closer to the long-awaited summer. Paradoxe steps forward. A strong, thick bassline takes hold, backed by solid synths that ground the track and give it weight. Its all about being right there, right then, when the sound fills the room, the details settle in and everything else slowly fades, leaving only the music and the moment.
