Dutch label Universo Positivo returns with label head Jospeh Salvador and house legend Orlando Voorn. Salvador has been active since the 1990s and has worked under various aliases and labels, while Voorn is known for connecting Detroit techno with European styles, and together they find a perfect sweet spot between deep and soulful house. The filter-funk energy of 'Slap My Funk' kicks off, then there's the boogie-fried and low slung house of 'Every Man Loves', jazzy melodies and big breaks of 'Break It Down' and strident, steamy disco-house stomper 'So Well.'

Chontane returns with Set A Dot, the third release on his label, TANE. Offering a four-track statement of pure rhythmic intensity and intricate groove construction.

Hypnotic synth pulses weave through the track, building tension gradually until it breaks into a dense, rhythmic crescendo. Learn More

Nico Lahs makes a triumphant comeback on Local Talk with a new release. After the split single with Tooli and his contribution for the 13 Years Later Compilation it's time for a full EP. Signals In Outer Space is yet another testament of Nico Lahs' ability to make house that doesn't belong to one style but rather cross several different ones with creativity and confidence. Those who favour the slower and more gritty house are in luck, this release got exactly that. Learn More

It says a lot about the interconnectedness of the global dubwise underground that it took downtime with Bristolian Neek in Portland to spur the link between ZamZam and Feel Free Hi Fi out of the Minneapolis Twin Cities. Once he put us on to them we were hooked- not only by their brilliant music but by their rigorously DIY approach and aesthetic. Heavily inspired by the more esoteric angles of early digi-era JA dancehall and UK dub (Shaka, Disciples, Mixman and Gussie P being some touchstones) the duo create a sound both reverential and unique, steeped in the traditions but striking out hard left into idiosyncratic territory all their own. Releasing all of their works up to this point on their own fantastic Digital Sting label, we’re excited to showcase them on ZamZam. Learn More

With Roza Terenzi and Sleep D on the remix, Alfred Czital & Ayu summon divine frequencies across a debut recalling the finest turn-of-the-millennium trance. Spirits are high as we strive for utopia.

Shoal opens the collection with a reimagining of Kaleidoskop, turning it into a dense, hypnotic trip marked by shimmering leads and deep, immersive energy.

Leria offers a live mix of Goccia—a crackling, textured journey through a vividly alien soundscape. Together, these remixes showcase the depth and adaptability of D. Leria's material, reworked with vision and finesse Learn More

LNS & DJ Sotofett drop a fierce two-tracker built for heavy warehouse rotation. The A-side delivers raw, bass-driven energy with jagged rhythms and a euphoric halftime breakdown. On the flip, Sotofett’s “Buzzy Breaker” evolves from minimal dub into a breakbeat-heavy trip with jungle flair. Both tracks are hypnotic, high-impact, and crafted for serious system pressure.

Dom of Dom & Roland, (Roland being a machine), has been a drum and bass visionary since the mid 90’s. He remains the only solo artist to have had award-winning albums on both Metalheadz and Moving Shadow. Dom released his ninth album on Overshadow earlier this year. His collaborations range far and wide and have included the likes of Optical, Amon Tobin, and more recently Noisia. Internationally acclaimed for both his records and performance, his epic brand of music has attracted other pioneers along the way, Art of Noise, David Bowie, Laurent Garnier, Goldie, and Clyde Stubblefield, are just a few of the many loyal fans he has collected over the last 30 years. He still travels the world, is not slowing down, and continues to evolve his music to this day. “Individual” is his new label. Its purpose, in his own words, is “to celebrate the uniqueness and character of individuals or artists, who stand apart from others of the same” Learn More

Manchester-based, Irish-born artist Kerrie returns to James Ruskin’s Blueprint label for her third release, further refining her craft in powerful, meticulously engineered techno. A mainstay of the UK scene and now a resident at Berlin’s iconic Tresor, Kerrie channels her deep roots in record store culture and over a decade of hands-on hardware experimentation into tracks that are both intense and emotionally resonant. Act Of Resistance blends dub-inflected atmospheres with jagged industrial textures, while Validation drives forward with a relentless, hypnotic momentum. On the flip, In Your Orbit unfolds with anxious, spiraling energy, and Natural Order builds slowly, underpinned by intricate production and layered rhythms. Grounded in classic hardware aesthetics but shaped by a bold, personal vision, this is immersive, purposeful techno built to last. Learn More

Astonishingly, 18 years has now passed since Gilles Aiken - probably more celebrated these days for his work under the alternate Desert Sky alias - first offered up off-kilter tech-house tracks as Edward. Last year, he impressed with a wonderfully deep and unctuous EP on deep house imprint Smallville; here, he makes his bow on another must-check label, Kalahari Oyster Cult. In keeping with the imprint's love of all things trippy and otherworldly, opener 'Tentacle' sees him wrap chiming lead lines, psychedelic synth motifs, weird noises and layers of percussion to a chunky, locked-in house groove. Aiken then goes off piste via a skewed, druggy and at times dreamy tech-house remix of Trybet's 'Moodsetter'. Arguably best of all though is impossible-to-pigeonhole flip-side 'Dr Octo', which is immersive, unsettling, tactile and eccentric in equal measure. Learn More

Settle Down’s debut release on Guidelines is here, and it’s nothing short of electrifying. The Dun Dudda and its flip-side Wipe Out take the jungle sound to new heights, blending future-thinking production with dancefloor-heavy energy that will rattle speakers and ignite the crowd. Learn More
