Madd Rods third studio album is a celebration of rawness and creative autonomy. Following Sad Behaviour on Discotexas, which laid the foundations for his stylistic shift, In Constant Evolution dives deeper into that transformation. Thirteen tracks move through EBM, Electro, Krautrock, and Indie Dance with a deliberate imperfection: proof that emotion, not precision, is what endures.
Hyperstellar returns to Bordello A Parigi with a nocturnal and deeply magnetic EP. In For a Flash captures the fleeting beauty of a moment stolen from the night, the tension of a glance that will never return, the sensation of having loved inside a dream. The record carves out a singular aesthetic through new wave, shady atmospheres, and early electronic influences. The eponymous track, In For a Flash, opens the record like a sudden vision: a burst of light in the dark, propulsive, yet already fading. From its fatalist urgency to the longing of The Dance We Never Had, each piece suggests a different facet of the same mirage. Surrender unfolds like a slow implosion, a toxic war between release and control, while LAmour sur Saturne drifts endlessly in a suspended space, like a tale where the impossible is still imagined. Influenced as much by Burial as by New Order, the solitude of classical composers or eccentric glam rock acts, Hyperstellar continues to build his artistry on numbers, and intimate constellations.
We love our star themes on Club Mackan. And the next release is no different. We welcome Berlin-based James Rod with a stellar two-track EP, Astrolosis. With remixes from Aleito and Marcus Christiansen, this release is a journey through cosmic melodies, galactic grooves, and star-born transformations. The title track, Astrolosis, shines with a bright, uplifting melody that never quite sits still. Like a star undergoing metamorphosis, its sound keeps shifting while its core remains the same—steady bassline, euphoric tone, and clever layering. Its cosmic, happy, and hypnotic. Giorgiolate follows with a groove that feels like a disco beat turned cinematic. The bassline takes the lead, constantly evolving and commanding the spotlight. Not-so-subtle FX and nuanced shifts in rhythm keep the track dynamic, giving it a sense of propulsion through space. Marcus Christiansens remix of Astrolosis injects drama and edge into the original. With a bit of acid and a powerful build-up, the remix builds tension like a dying star—only to explode into euphoric release, a true supernova moment. Aleito, on the other hand, turns Giorgiolate into something far darker. Think dark matter made audible. Pitched-down percussion and haunting melodies make his version feel like it belongs in a distant, unknown galaxy. Tune in, set your course, and let the soundwaves carry you across the stars.
FTTF 46 lands on Diynamic with four tracks on the menu, each serving its own flavor. Pablo Say opens with Bring the Lows Up – sizzling synths and guiding vocals, the perfect aperitif to start the night. Christian Nielson and Pavel Petrov serve Blame like a hearty plate – bouncing kicks and playful breaks that keep the night moving.. Seizmics Gridlock Groove comes in like the perfect dessert – sweet, fruity and indulgent, the ultimate all-rounder. Enamour & Anyasa close with Bazaar, the digestif - a high-octane, rhythmic shot that primes you straight for the club. Four tracks like four courses - the perfect sonic menu for an unforgettable evening

Imagine a trip through the Alps guided by elegant dance music. Now let Nayan Soukie - better known as Amount - be your tour guide. His warmly awaited return to the Frank Music label features three brand-new dance tracks. Alpe Adria as a starter is modern House Music all the way, yet with a very subtle twist. The buildup is guided by an appealing voice that never breaks through but is always present. Then the piano emerges in the break, and suddenly youve reached the summit - the horizon wide open, skies bright and endless. Palmanova follows in the same path. The pads will guide you like a fluffy breeze to the next destination. Villach, however, takes things up and comes across as even a little trance-tinged. Hiking - or even better - dancing with Amount feels like floating on a cloud. Now make yourself comfortable.
After a strong run of releases on Secret Fusion, Nothing Is Real, and Sprechen earlier this year, NYC-based producer Evan Michael now lands on HIFI/LOFI Records with his Modern Life EP — a forward-thinking five-track journey that drifts from dreamy house to cosmic indie dance, with subtle shades of melancholy woven throughout. Having spent the past decade deeply immersed in New Yorks nightlife, Evan has supported many of the citys most vital independent clubs while absorbing their eclectic soundscapes. That experience has sharpened his ear for house and techno — a sensibility he now channels into productions that move seamlessly between retroism and futurism, all in his uniquely personal way. The release is elevated by standout remixes from trailblazer Maruwa, a Robert Johnson club resident whose rising profile spans releases on Steel City Dance Discs and X‑Kalay, delivering a deeper, more minimalistic, and irresistibly groovy reinterpretation of the original. Meanwhile, acclaimed producer Le Chev — trusted studio collaborator of LP Giobbi and co‑writer/producer for artists like Fischerspooner, SOFI TUKKER, Jake Shears, and more — brings a bold injection of deep house and melodic progressive grandeur, even flirting with Afro‑house undertones to expand Evans vision.
Londons cosmic disco voyagers Beyond The Struttosphere return with Silver Hawk—a lush, guitar-driven cosmic chug that blends hypnotic basslines and shimmering synths into an interstellar dance-floor journey. Up first on remix duty is Phunkadelica delivering an uplifting, groove-infused version that injects funk and radiance, while Jason Peters takes things into high gear with an energetic mix that leans heavy on acid twists and 80s synth nostalgia. Known for their cosmic disco explorations, Beyond The Struttosphere continue to expand their universe with this stellar release. Art by Cristina Capetillo

Luca Luper and Karmon unite for their new EP Frequency, a two-tracker that hits from the very first second and sweeps you into its world.

With Cos I Said So, Eastern Standard opens a new chapter in its sonic diary. This various artists collection stitches together voices from different corners of the scene — both rising names and seasoned creators — all bound by a shared love for house in its rawest form. The tracks carry the grit of oldschool heritage while bending into sharp, modern shapes, each one road-tested across dance floors from Berlin to beyond. Born out of months of traveling, chance encounters, and late-night exchanges, Cos I Said So feels less like a compilation and more like a living map of the labels journey.

Viennas ESH makes his Glasgow Underground debut with a rework that connects dance history to todays indie-dance floors.

Returning to Diynamic, Oppaacha unleashes his EP Arietta - three fresh cuts that drive the party from first beat to last.

Hot off the heels of her Panoramabar Berlin premiere, Zeynep Erbay returns to Exploited, continuing her efflorescence with Time Comes: a beautiful and joyous ascent that definitively frames an ecstatic state of being. Straight from the get go the track exudes a psychedelic warmth as a humid, swirling pad maps out goosebumps along the listeners spine and delayed vocal blobs flicker and gently fizz. Unapologetic piano chords burst in and gallop in lockstep with a chugging Italo bass line as the mood continues to rush. Palms grow moist and pupils widen as snare fills punctuate progress and eventually a bittersweet vocal pours in carrying the raw emotion of the final moments of a long, transportive rave. This is powerful, confident dance music from an artist well versed in capturing memorable moments - not to be missed!
A beat begins, both slick and sly, A groove that makes the night float by. Dario crafts with tender flair— Each note and swell hangs in the air. The bassline struts, but never shouts, It curls and dips, it twists and pouts. Percussion clatters, loose yet neat, A playful funk beneath your feet. With whispers soft and textures warm, The track avoids the tired norm. No thunderous drop, no club cliché, Just pulse and sway and sweet delay. It builds, it breathes, it gently bends, A tale that loops but never ends. From forest floor to lounge-lit street, Yes—**we do funk this beat.** Mastering by Robert Trifunović
Somethingnus Slave To The Rave returns with its third electrifying installment! We kick off with Modelers Rhythm Chasers, reimagined by Phunkadelica into a peak-time weapon with pumping 909s and a tense, nervy bassline. Up next, Martino Stefano delivers A Flea on My Soup, a bold fusion of house, speed garage and gritty urban flair—exactly the kind of genre-bending we love. Musumeci keeps the pressure on with Release Yourself, an anthemic call to the dancefloor that blends old-school grooves with a fresh twist.

The Adam Ten & Solomun-inspired rise in left-field dance music has filled the Indie Dance DJ charts with an influx of new producers. KEYTARBI is one of these rising stars that has caught our ears, her Quito cut delivering the kind of uptempo chug we want in a left-field set. The wonderfully oddball Pancakes is her debut for us. Featuring the spoken tones of legendary house vocalist Robert Owens. It aint over, he tells us, until Bertha calls you into the kitchen, for some of her delicious pancakes. We have no idea what hes on about either, but with a groove this good, who needs anything to make sense? Its just a banger!
Affection from Istanbul-based Alican first appeared in late 2022 on the Sur-Mesure compilation, curated by Jepe. The track quickly stood out as one of the highlights of the release, and now its time for it to shine on its own as a single—complete with a special edit by Jepe himself. Over the past years, Sasse and Jepe have poured their energy and vision into shaping the Moodmusic label group, steadily building a platform that champions forward-thinking sounds and fresh talent. With the continuous support of top DJs around the globe and strong presence across radio shows, Affection is now set to take flight and reach even greater heights.
Were excited to welcome an unprecedented collaboration on Eastern Standard: Kiki, Berlins Voodoo mainstay known for melodic minimal techno and Italo disco, joins forces with the acclaimed duo Local Suicide, pioneers of dark disco, EBM, and technodisco. Together, they merge their wave-driven energy in a truly unique release, Jamais Vu. French beat-cooker MMYYLO completes the package with a powerful remix, adding his own signature touch.
The Tegel Boys have triumphantly hit their stride with their new original track, Fall In Line. That is to say they have cracked the code and have tapped into the raw and unique purity of their individual and collective sonic instincts. Fall In Line is a full contact cowboy breakbeat Turkish acid psych kraut wiggler, a brilliant distillation of the component parts that make up the boys magic. Thunderous old-school breaks, irresistible bop with raucous cowbell flair opens up this original, while outrageous samples intone pitch-perfect dancefloor commands with that characteristic western-drawl. (Singer Joel is an avowed lysergic cowboy hailing from Texas, with a twinkling eye for rave-acapella hijinks). Bold electro-bass throb builds until suddenly the track snakes forward with a hypnotic Turkish pysch-guitar figure. Staccato strummed guitar joins the fray, and the whole band is positively surging forth with motorik-disco mechanics. Harmonica-melodica licks, molten guitar eruptions build to a crescendo until it boils over into a taught, melodic chug into infinity. The band is all at once channeling Anatolian liquid-sunshine, gritty-western cinematics, and modern club acid electronics, the marvelous ingredients for this absolute belter. Shahrokh Dini & Phil Rosplesch Remix: Timeless soul swing is the mood as the remixers tease in a monstrous house strut to the mix. Immaculate cowboy missives guide you as this unnervingly seductive and elastic track builds and builds. Dynamic clapback rhythms collide with the Turkish-guitar variations in perfect unity as this remix transforms the original chug into an altogether late-night goliath of a house exploration.
After several releases on Diynamic, ID ID returns with Ninja Flavour, a three-track EP built for peak-time chaos and closing-time euphoria. The title track comes in all guns blazing – sharp synths, a guiding voice and the kind of forward pull that drags you straight to the front left. Push That hits next – a last rush through the system, the floor still buzzing, adrenaline running high. Party Loop closes the night, working its magic in whispers, hypnotic vocals slipping through the crowd like a magician weaving you deeper into the floor, carrying you gently into the afterglow.
Were delighted to welcome back Amount, aka Nayan Soukie, to Darkroom Dubs as he returns with four subterranean throbbers that effervesce with trance-inducing lawlessness. A Darkroom Dubs favourite who first debuted in 2013 as one-half of house-combo Soukie & Windish. Since then, hes flourished as a renowned producer, DJ, and seasoned live performer, developing a penchant for sleazy burners primed for the darkest of rooms and those hazy, sunrise-lit, after-hours moments. This latest offering from the Berlin native, entitled Zeroton, is an essential addition to an already impressive back catalogue, with appearances on imprints such as Feines Tier, Running Back, Frank Music and his own URSL label.
