neck
First introduced during Mau P’s standout Sahara Tent headline at Coachella - where it became an in-demand ID request - ‘neck’ has continued to evolve ever since. The track has been reshaped and refined through months of road testing, growing heavier and more confident as Mau’s sound and scale have expanded on the global stage. Mau’s story with Black Book Records began when ‘Dress Code’ landed on the label and quickly took on a life of its own, becoming a calling card throughout his earliest tours. The record earned heavyweight support and viral moments, including a recent video of Dua Lipa dancing to the track, accelerating his momentum from rising name to international headliner. That foundation has since grown into one of the most talked-about careers in electronic music. In the years following, the Dutch producer’s ascent has been relentless. In 2025 alone, he delivered a high-production debut at Red Rocks Amphitheatre and sold out over 40,000 tickets across two nights at the Los Angeles State Historic Park. His Baddest Behaviour open-to-close series continues to grow globally, including sold-out dates and a summer residency at Ibiza’s iconic Pacha. As he looks ahead to an ambitious 2026 - including major festival appearances across the globe, more Baddest Behaviour events, and the launch of an album, label, and clothing line - ‘neck’ feels deliberately timed. It’s a reminder of where Mau P came from and a clear signal of where he’s headed.

Fallin' / Danger
Black Book Records welcomes the return of TOBEHONEST with his new two-track EP, ‘Fallin / Danger’ - a showcase of the LA-based producer’s instinct for groove and rhythm. Following his breakout debut ‘Maquina De Bailar’ on Black Book ID’s: Chapter 4 - a track that became a staple in sets across 2022 and 2023 - along with ‘Where Ya At’ and his recent remix of ‘Ladies and Gentlemen’, TOBEHONEST returns with a refined sound that doubles down on the percussive character defining his style. On the A-side, ‘Fallin’ strikes with a wonky bassline, hypnotic vocals, and a bending metallic lead that keeps tension high from start to finish. With its punching synth work, crisp percussion, and infectious groove, it’s a late-night weapon built for the floor - equal parts attitude, movement, and release. ‘Danger’ - a collaboration with California producer Broken Hill, known for his work with BLOND:ISH - leans into darker indie club tones, fusing jagged synths with a groove that feels both raw and refined. A fitting B-side, it’s dark, driven by a 4x4 groove with crisp hats, and rolling bassline. From Maccabi House to Framework and Mayan Warrior, TOBEHONEST’s presence behind the decks mirrors the drive of his productions. Blending soul, funk, jazz, and Latin rhythm into a dance-forward mix, his music stays rooted in feeling and movement. With ‘Fallin / Danger’, TOBEHONEST delivers his boldest statement yet - a testament to a producer unafraid to blur boundaries, where the stranger and more honest the sound, the better.

The Party / bodyonbody
Emerging Brazilian producer GUI2IN makes his debut on Black Book Records with The Party EP. The pack includes The Party and bodyonbody, featuring Gaddi, which quickly earned pre-release rotation from heavyweights like AYYBO, Odd Mob, and Cloonee. On the EP, GUI2IN flexes his ability to flip a classic sample, and deliver a frenetic bomb, making for a must-have ID in any selectors arsenal. Dedicated to his craft since the age of 13, GUI2INs distinguishing detail is his studied ear. The producer channels the raw energy of 80s house music through a contemporary perspective. On the flip, bodyonbody rides on blistering kicks and a merciless bassline, anchored by massive, reverberated vocals and a driving rhythm section that keeps listeners on their toes. Its this visceral production and sharp ear that caught the attention of Chris Lake himself-a co-sign that helped cement his status as an emerging tastemaker to watch. GUI2IN has quickly earned support from top-tier players, leaving him to rank among the top 100 most-played DJs in his home country of Brazil. A name in the Sao Paolo club circuit, the 24-year-old has his sights set on the global stage. Keep your ears to the ground as GUI2IN forges his own path as one of the most exciting new voices in underground dance.
