Not so far away in time, in a twinkling disco dreamland, lived a French producer named Lukus. With soft hands and a heart full of starry beats, he spun magic from his little studio, whispering secrets into the airwaves. That's how the story should begin, with Lukus gathering three shiny friends for his magic bundle, the Disco Speech EP, ready to drift out on March 27th aboard the Apparel Music cloud. First, the title whisper, Disco Speech, a lush meadow of modern disco where a plump bassline looks like a strong forest tree, keys dances like fireflies, and tiny telephone buttons clicks, wrapped in a blanket of playful percussion. Then Gino's Dance floats in, a dreamy disco pillow, soft and swaying, with percussion pattering like distant waves and vocal samples glowing warm. Last peeks Hender Loop, wide and airy, naked and free, with its cinematic breaths carrying you higher and higher. Lukus tucked them all into a digital cradle, his second gift to Apparel Music, and as the stars blinked goodnight, the EP promised sweet dreams of rhythm and wonder. Sleep tight, little ones... the disco whispers await.

With the single Hold Up, Brejner & The Teacher inaugurate Apparel Music Breaks (APB), a new catalogue in the Apparel Music universe dedicated to rhythm in its most essential form. We want APB to be defined by a shared language, rooted in breaks, texture, and movement. A space where lo-fi sensibilities, bass pressure, and rhythmic experimentation coexist. A rhythmic framework where emotion emerges through motion. Brejner & The Teacher, longtime friends bonded by a deep appreciation for house, old school jungle, breakbeat, and classic UK garage, embody this vision naturally. Drawing inspiration from foundational figures such as Ray Keith, Foul Play, and Derrick Carter, alongside contemporary voices like Paco Osuna and Proudly People, their sound bridges eras. Their productions are bass-driven, always carrying a sense of lift and forward momentum. Hold Up sets the tone for the catalog with clarity. It feels raw and immediate, like something built around a loop that just made sense and didn't need to be overworked. The breaks are loose, the low end is steady, and everything moves with a natural swing. As the first entry in the APB series, it establishes the direction: a focus on groove as structure, and on breaks as a living, evolving language.

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.
