Meet Maxmillion Dunbar aka Max D. This guy runs the incredible Future Times Label straight out of D.C. and is also one half of the always amazing duo Beautiful Swimmers. Be it with his DJ sets, his productions ranging from classic House to Ambient, or the releases he curates on his label – he’s just an inexhaustible source of inspiration to any music enthusiast. So we’re psyched he releases a new LP these days on RVNG Intl. entitled “House Of Woo”, which is inspired by his relationship to his girlfriend. Now, given this approach, could the result be anything else than a beautiful record with multiple facets? Of course not, so here’s a little teaser for you guys: The Nod Mix of “The Figurine” as a free download! We’re not the biggest fans of empty phrases here, but well: Sometimes, the best things in life are free!

Oliver Ho alias Raudive, who picked his nom de plume referring to the Letvian writer and intellectual Konstantīns Raudive, is a British DJ and Producer. He’s been arousing enthusiasm amongst Club DJs for quite a while now with his mechanical – yet emotional – productions and releases. “Romantic Robot” is a solid floor filler, enhanced with a stripped down bassline, a vintage cowbell and hypnotic shakers. Dive in!

Sophie is a Scottish producer who releases on the acclaimed Huntleys & Palmers imprint. “Nothing More To Say” is the type of house track that is just like a huge portion of pink cotton candy: Sooo sweet and sticky – yet you can’t help but to crave for more of it! Download it right here to indulge your sweet tooth! But careful: Don’t trip over a flamingo and try not to spill your lychee martini, while you’re grooving to this one into a rosy future on a white beach…

House heads all around the world are pinning their hopes on Australian DJ and Producer Tornado Wallace – and he doesn’t consider letting them down for a second! His newest Vinyl EP on ESP Institute (founded by the incredible Lovefingers) proves just that. Intelligently produced dance music that stimulates both – your rational and your emotional brain. Flanked by a beautiful artwork – what more could you ask for? Superb!

Manhooker are Guiddo (DJ/Producer) and Mavin (Singer/Songwriter). They’re based in Berlin and for their first release, they receive support by legendary Ostgut Ton (the label behind the Berghain/Panorama Bar-family) and Cologne’s legendary Kompakt empire. Given all of that, it wouldn’t catch anyone off guard if this would be a house record in the word’s most classical sense, would it? Download the track right here and put your body in it! So, you’ll use the rhythm, and you dance and sing along, while you’re drowning in the song…

Chelsea Wolfe hails from California’s capitol Sacramento and has already released three full-length LPs, with her latest being a collection of acoustic songs entitled “Unknown Rooms”. She now resides in Los Angeles and still likes to steal our heart with her expressive voice. Lust For Youth from Sweden cleverly turned the original of “Flatlands” into a stirring electro-goth track. Check it out right here, as we’re truly impressed by it!

The title “Essential” really hits the nail right on the head: Crimea X are legendary Italian Producer and DJ Rocca and Jukka Reverberi. Rocca has been around for quite a while and some of you know him as a part of Ajello or from his great works he did with Dimitri from Paris. With his partner Jukka Reverberi, he of course does was he does best: pumping disco-influenced house music. Richard Norris aka The Time And Space Machine gives “Essential” the remix treatment it deserves, turning it into a synthetic yet soulful sea of us for us to drown in… Let’s get lost!

Holland’s own Danny Wolfers aka Legowelt is nothing short of a legend in the world of electronic music! He has been impressing both critics and fans for well over a decade now with his groundbreaking productions. Always hard to categorize and always heavily influenced by his love for synthesizers, they’re first and foremost: never boring. Check out his new track “Visions In My Mind” right here and be inspired!
