Jim Rider returns to Bar 25 Music for his third release with the 'Time Stands Still' EP, following two other successful releases on the label, 'Colours' and 'Wingtips.' The title track 'Time Stands Still' leads the package, paired with 'Better Off Without You' as a strong companion piece. Rider's consistent presence on the label underscores his melodic yet driving sound, shaped by years of global touring and releases on All Day I Dream, Get Physical, VIVa MUSiC and his own Signs imprint. Now a tastemaker curating both music and events, Rider continues to connect with audiences worldwide, from Ibiza residencies to support from Lee Burridge, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo and more. 'Time Stands Still' delivers another confident statement from Jim Rider, blending artistry and club functionality in the spirit of Bar 25 Music.

Danny Faber returns on Bar 25 Music with the single 'Hoplahop', accompanied by his previously released track 'Temple Dust'. Together, the two tracks highlight different facets of his sound, rooted in rhythm, movement and a deep connection to club culture. 'Hoplahop' delivers a direct and energetic statement, driven by groove and forward momentum. It reflects Faber's instinctive approach to the dancefloor, shaped by decades behind the decks and a clear understanding of timing, flow and energy. 'Temple Dust', released earlier, channels a more ritualistic and organic mood. Built around earthy rhythms and hypnotic progression, the track draws on the spirit of ancient ceremonies and timeless grooves, translating them into a contemporary club context. As co founder of the legendary Bar 25 club and the creative force behind Bar 25 Music and its sub labels, Danny Faber has played a defining role in shaping Berlin's underground scene. 'Hoplahop' and 'Temple Dust' together reflect that legacy, presenting music that is functional, grounded and deeply connected to the dancefloor.
