'HighRoller' marks Detlef's return to Black Book Records, and it lands exactly where you'd expect from one of the industry's most reliable hitmakers. Detlef has been a fixture of the global tech house scene for years, with a catalog spread across the genre's most respected homes - Hot Creations and Solid Grooves among them. #1 Beatport hits like 'Swagon' and 'Deep Dip' put him on the map, but it's the consistency that's kept him there: records that show up in sets from Jamie Jones to Green Velvet, both of whom he's collaborated with extensively. His years at the heart of Paradise at DC-10 sealed his reputation as a main-room operator, and that pedigree carries across Insomniac, The Warehouse Project, Printworks, CRSSD, and Creamfields. With his own imprint ISSUES, he's added label head to the resume - a platform built around the same raw, club-first ethos that runs through everything he puts his name on. ‘HighRoller’ arrives as another sharp addition to a catalog that continues to hold weight across the global club circuit.
Part of a rising wave of young American producers pushing underground beats in their own direction, California's own Braydon Terzo joins the Black Book Records roster with an impressive two-track release. His records have quickly earned the attention of artists like Mau P, Cloonee, Chris Stussy, and Jamie Jones and we've been patiently waiting for the right release to bring him to the label. 'Get Ruff,' a track that has found its way into Sosa's Coachella set, where it became one of the most replayed moments from the performance on YouTube. The record has also received support from Adam Ten at EDC and Chris Lake during his Under the K Bridge shows in New York. Terzo is helping shape a new generation of artists bringing fresh energy to the genre.

Ragie Ban returns to Black Book Records with ‘Taste / fREAK,’ a two-track package that follows his Beatport Tech House #1 collaboration with Chris Lake, ‘Toxic.’ Already road-tested during this year’s Miami Music Week, both records proved their weight on the dancefloor, drawing strong reactions across the week’s biggest parties. Arriving ahead of his sold-out U.S. tour, ‘Taste / fREAK’ continues the momentum behind one of house music's fastest-rising names, further cementing Ragie Ban as a producer with a growing presence both in the booth and on the road.

Sapian & Aviv Sab land on Chris Lake’s Black Book Records, with ‘Deep House Pumpin’'; a groove-led, no-frills club cut, it’s already circulating in sets from Brunello, Ben Sterling and Ahmed Spins. Built for pure function, the track locks into a rolling rhythm from the first drop, delivering stripped-back energy and late-night momentum for underground dancefloors.

Harry Romero returns to Black Book Records with ‘Renegades,’ reinforcing a relationship with the label that continues to deliver. The New Jersey house mainstay brings decades of credibility, with classics like ‘Tania,’ ‘Night @ The Black,’ and ‘I Go Back’ with Robert Owens still shaping the culture today. It’s already been a strong year for Romero, with fresh releases landing across Defected and Cécille, adding to a catalog that continues to move with intent. He’s stayed firmly in the mix with releases across Crosstown Rebels, Hot Creations, Nervous, Armada, and Classic, alongside a steady run on Black Book including ‘Paradise II,’ ‘Fool For Love’ (with a Chris Lake edit), and a remix of HoneyLuv’s ‘365.’ A true bridge between generations, he remains a constant in global house music.
The São Paulo native Volkoder returns to Black Book Records with ‘Trajadão / Everybody,’ a bold double A-side release that reinforces his standing as one of the most relentless producers on the global circuit. Following the success of last year’s ‘Act Up (Bad Boy),’ he steps back into the label’s core mix with sharpened intent. Now a fixture in sets from Peggy Gou, Solomun, Michael Bibi, The Martinez Brothers, and more, Volkoder has become a true secret ingredient across the scene. He recently saw a viral breakout moment when Adam Ten played his track at Burning Man - an ID that quickly caught fire online and was later picked up by Joseph Capriati’s Metamorfosi imprint, further accelerating his momentum. His track ‘All Night Long’ also had a standout moment when Solomun played it in Tulum before signing it to his own Diynamic label. ‘Trajadão’ leads as a commanding, groove-forward weapon already gaining support from Max Styler and CamelPhat, built for immediate reaction and repeat plays. Alongside ‘Everybody,’ the release doubles down on Volkoder’s ability to deliver records that DJs actually reach for, marking another sharp return to Black Book.
