Two longstanding electronic legends, Steve Bug reunites with frequent collaborator Cle for the three-track 'It Just Happened EP' on Nu Groove. The German tastemaker and Poker Flat label boss has helped define a plethora of electronic sub genres through his modern releases and expansive DJ sets. From early LPs 'Volksworld' and 'Da Minimal Funk', to later works 'Traffic Signs' and 'Never Ending Winding Roads', Bug's futuristic vision is apparent throughout his experimental releases. Joined once again by Cle, a fellow veteran of the German rave scene, the pair return to the cult NYC label with three striking originals following previous release 'Let It Go / Suitcase In A Box'. The EP's lead, 'It Just Happened' features breathy synths and acidic loops that harken back to an era of underground house, immediately nostalgic yet forward thinking in its technique. 'Crew Thing' and 'House Music Transcends' follow suit, both teeming with energy as the two producers show off their unique creative process through sound. Steve Bug & Cle 'It Just Happened EP' 1.

Swiss producer Deetron returns to the legendary NYC label Nu Groove for a two-track release, 'Runnin' / AM_909'. Inspired by the soulful techno and house birthed in Detroit, Deetron's understated sound is testament to his knowledge of the golden era of house, one that helped him to relaunch Nu Groove alongside NYC house legend Jovonn in 2021. Now returning to one of house's most respected labels, 'Runnin'' opens this package of originals, offering a sharp house release with an invigorating piano-synth hybrid loop that builds in ecstasy, as residual noise is expertly manipulated to give and release tension. 'AM_909' uses loops in a similar way, this time with a more dreamlike quality that sustains. Deetron 'Runnin' / AM_909' 1. Runnin' 2.
