Out now via UNDERGROWTH.

Fleur Shore has teamed with Émilie Rachel to present their latest  single ‘Bless The House,’ which is now available on  UNDERGROWTH.

Driven by Émilie Rachel’s hypnotic vocals, ‘Bless The House’ channels a stripped-back, four-to-the-floor groove, making a house music cut at its finest.

This is  Fleur Shore’s second release on her new label, UNDERGROWTH, following her debut  ‘Higher,’ which dropped last month, earning support from BBC Radio 1 hosts Danny Howard, Sarah Story, and Arielle Free, plus mention on the Beatport site.

The artist describes the project as a movement, also planning to deliver a series of events, a creative platform, and above all, a collective of art and music lovers who reject the ordinary in favor of exploration and authenticity.   “We are connected. We are one. We are undergrowth,” Fleur Shore commented.

‘Bless The House’ is out now. Stream and download here.

Electronic duo Orbital have unveiled their remix of The Cure’s ‘ENDSONG.’  The cut is included on the upcoming  ‘Mixes of a Lost World’ 24-track compilation, to be released on June 13th, 2025, via Fiction Records.

With their signature blend of layered synths and expansive production, the seminal British band formed by Paul and Phil Hartnoll inject new life into the song, stretching its emotional weight across a hypnotic electronic landscape, transforming it into a pulsing, atmospheric journey.

This isn’t the first time Paul Hartnoll has collaborated with The Cure’s Robert Smith. Back in 2007, Smith lent his vocals to Paul’s solo track ‘Please’ from the album ‘The Ideal Condition.’  Later, he revisited The Cure’s classic ‘The Forest,’ reimagining it with folk-infused vocals by The Unthanks on his 8:58 project.

‘Mixes of a Lost World’ features three remixes for each of the eight tracks from the original album. Other remixers featured are  Four Tet, Paul Oakenfold, Chino Moreno of Deftones, Mogwai, Trentemøller, Daniel Avery, and Mura Masa.

Proceeds from the release will go to War Child UK, supporting children affected by conflict. The album will be available across digital platforms as well as limited-edition 2LP, 3LP, 2CD, and 3CD formats.

The hybrid-styled collaboration lands with remixes by Verche, Luze, and Lost Astronaut

Stripped Recordings has issued ‘Futurewise’, a four-track package that finds Argentine producers Greta Meier, Poli Siufi, and Prototype joining forces for a driving, progressive-house cut with clear nods to its darker shades.

The original is accompanied by three contrasting reworks: Verche delivers a textured, club-focused take, Luze brings a deeper melodic interpretation, and Lost Astronaut explores more atmospheric terrain through broken beats.

The EP arrived on May 15th and is available now on all major download and streaming platforms.

Kryptonicadjs have spent more than two decades refining a style that sits somewhere between deep‑tech hypnosis and house swagger, and ‘Hop The Jam’ distills that journey into one lean cut for the small‑hours floor. A familiar vocal snippet—lifted from Technotronic’s immortal ‘Pump Up The Jam’—floats in and out like a half‑remembered hook, while a rubbery bassline and needle‑sharp percussion keep tension high. The pair keeps the arrangement spare: no ornamental fluff, just rolling pressure, subtle atmospheric washes, and a groove that won’t loosen its grip.

Jey Kurmis strips the original back even further and steers it into murkier territory. His remix leans on a low‑slung, pitch‑black bass motif and tight micro‑house drums, letting negative space do the heavy lifting. The vocal slips behind the curtain, re‑emerging only as a faint shadow, and the result feels both more clandestine and more kinetic—a perfect bridge for DJs pushing from deep tech into peak‑hour house.

‘Hop The Jam’ shows why Kryptonicadjs remain a reliable source of dance‑floor firepower: they understand that a single hypnotic loop, tuned just right, can carry a crowd for hours. Paired with Kurmis’ taut reshuffle, the package offers two different doors into the same after‑hours maze—pick one and stay lost.

Stream and download ‘Hop The Jam’ here.

Grant Jackson, a well-known Detroit-based DJ known for hosting the popular local club night ‘Taco Tuesdays,’ has passed away at the age of 35.

His family announced the news on his Facebook page on Friday, May 2nd, 2025. “We’re grateful for all the messages, memories, and photos you’ve shared of your time with Grant,” the post read. “He would want everyone—friends and family alike—to come together and celebrate a life that, while brief, was full of meaning.” The cause of death has not been disclosed yet.

Jackson began his musical journey organizing dubstep nights in the late 2000s, eventually expanding into other genres including funk, disco, and drum & bass. He held his ‘Taco Tuesdays’ residency at venues like TV Lounge and UFO Bar, and frequently played at Detroit staples such as The Eagle of Detroit and Spkrbox.

Grant was a true icon in our community,” UFO Bar wrote on Instagram. “He valued the culture’s history and always embraced fresh talent with genuine excitement. His impact on Detroit’s dance scene is lasting, and his absence will be deeply felt.” Spkrbox also announced a memorial event set for Sunday, May 11th, with further details forthcoming.

Brooklyn-based producer Saqib and Mumbai’s rising talent Naayaab have teamed up again on the latest Kindisch release entitled ‘Mehfil.’ 

The three-track musical offering features different versions, an Original Mix, a Dub mix,  and an Atish remix, presenting a deep and heartfelt interpretation of contemporary love, inspired by the timeless story of Laila and Majnu.

Naayaab’s lyrics reimagine Laila as a strong, self-reliant character navigating a world of transient relationships and emotional detachment, while Majnu is portrayed as a timeless seeker of deep, authentic connection. The Original Mix features airy strings and ethereal vocals layered over earthy house grooves. The Dub Mix emphasizes the cut’s lush instrumental textures, while Atish reshapes ‘Mehfil’ into a dancefloor-driven experience propelled by a throbbing indie dance bassline.

Saqib, who is well-known for his dynamic DJ performances and genre-defying productions on imprints such as his own  Beats On Time, or Sol Selectas and Abracadabra, draws on a rich musical history rooted in Lahore’s early metal scene. Naayaab, a multidisciplinary artist who taught herself the craft, fuses elements of indie, disco, tech-house, and melodic styles to create a bold, immersive, and emotionally charged sound. Both artists have previously collaborated on ‘Samundar’  at  Indo Warehouse,  which caused good sensations on the scene.

Massive Attack have released a fresh statement standing behind Irish rap group Kneecap, who have recently come under scrutiny from the UK government.

The Belfast-based trio, known for their punk-influenced style, have stirred criticism from UK officials due to a resurfaced video from 2023. In the clip, Kneecap reportedly encouraged the crowd to “Kill your local MP” and stated, “The only good Tory is a dead Tory.” High-profile figures such as Labour leader Keir Starmer, Conservative MP Kemi Badenoch, and Labour MP David Taylor have all condemned the footage. Taylor even urged Glastonbury Festival to remove Kneecap from its 2025 lineup, warning that their inclusion could compromise the event’s longstanding commitment to peace, unity, and social responsibility. The video is now said to be under investigation by counter-terrorism authorities.

On April 28th, Kneecap issued a formal apology for their remarks. However, they also claimed the public outcry is part of a deliberate attempt to discredit them, particularly following their recent pro-Palestinian message displayed during a Coachella performance earlier this month.

After their first Coachella weekend appearance, Kneecap accused the festival of censoring their pro-Palestine message and a final chant of “Fuck Israel, Free Palestine” from the event’s livestream without their consent. Soon after, their American booking agency, Independent Artist Group, confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter that they had ended their working relationship with the group.

In a statement released today, Massive Attack urged the media to concentrate on Kneecap’s original intent — raising awareness for the Palestinian cause. They stressed that “language is important” and cautioned against careless speech, especially in light of the killings of MPs Jo Cox and Sir David Amess. Still, they criticized what they described as “calculated outrage” from politicians and conservative commentators, accusing them of using Kneecap’s stage remarks to distract from what Massive Attack called “a genocide occurring in plain sight.”

“Kneecap are not the headline. Gaza is the headline. Genocide is the headline,” the band stated. “The real issue is the silence, complicity, and endorsement of these atrocities by Britain’s elected leaders.”

Electronic duo Justice have presented the ‘Afterimage’ remix package, offering four new versions of the original track. The release is out now via  Ed Banger Records / Because Music.

The original track, which features RIMON on the vocals, was included on the ‘Hypedrama’ album, released in 2024. On this occasion, the French duo has selected   Jersey, Laurence Guy, and Paranoid London to produce their own versions, plus a new Justice remix.

Also, an  ‘Afterimage’ video was shared today featuring Justice and RIMON themselves.

“I discovered RIMON a couple of years ago on COLORS where she performed her song ‘Build Me A House’. Her voice and flow instantly caught my attention. Justice were in the studio looking for a singer to take an instrumental track to another level. They invited RIMON to their Paris studio for a session. Sometimes magic happens at first sight, this is the story of ‘Afterimage’,” Ed Banger Records label boss Pedro Winter commented.
