Tray tables upright. Brace positions please. Mike Push now has his singles throttle wide open. With pre-flight checks for his ‘Known Universe’ LP conclusively run through the harmonic systems of ‘Breakpoint’ and ’Back When We Believed’, the tempo and temperature gloves have now come off. The fierce ‘n’ firestartin’ ‘Future Fall’ is on final club approach, ready and set to further bait the floor’s breath for Push’s eighth longform. Urged on by its chanted “Go! Go! Go!” vocal,

ORIGINAL AND KRISMI MIXES Month by 2026-month, Christian Burns has been turning the singles pages on his highly anticipated ‘Love Songs From Suburbia’ successor. As he’s been doing so, he’s also been script-flipping its titles and themes in a knowingly cryptic manner. Case in point, the spiritually elevating ‘Fall To You’, which augured the unexpectedly optimistic (but against-title-type), ‘Darker Days’. Now, ‘I Will Follow’s trust-the-moment message is itself tailed by his t

An intimate, exclusive 75-person rave now streamed for all – stream it HERE Part of El Tony Mate’s Selected Sessions series El Tony Mate recently brought its Selected Sessions series to Basel’s iconic fondue bar Hafechäs, where Mixmag cover star and March 2026 DJ-Kicks artist, Peruvian house and techno DJ Sofia Kourtesis, and local Swiss talent Sebastian Konrad played to 75 selected guests on 9th April. Now, everyone’s invited to experience it, as the full set from Sofia Kou

Combining indie dance sensibilities with a driving rhythm, and soulful flare, the powerful tech house release is out now. Continuing his prolific run of 2026 form, renowned Indian electronic music producer and DJ Migrant returns with “Parallel Voices”, a richly textured and dynamic new house cut, out now. Expanding on his increasingly refined sonic identity, “Parallel Voices” blends indie dance sensibilities with the precision of tech house, resulting in a track that feels bo

Opening the catalogue is ‘Echoes of Light’, a dynamic three-track EP with FunkT!de, arriving April 24 Rising electronic duo Sunora announce the launch of their brand new record label, SUNCTURE, alongside the imprint’s debut release Echoes of Light — a three-track EP created in collaboration with FunkT!de, arriving April 24, 2026. SUNCTURE marks a new step for the recently formed duo, conceived as a platform for groove-led, emotionally resonant house music rooted in warmth and

There’s an undeniable clarity of intent behind “No Cap.” Every element serves the dancefloor, but not in a predictable way. Jordan John and FiNE craft a track that feels heavy without being blunt, hypnotic without drifting into the background. The low-end is particularly striking. It moves with a controlled aggression, giving the track its weight while leaving enough space for the intricate percussion to breathe. This interplay creates a groove that feels alive—constantly shi

Oi lands on Yaffa Records with Move It, a release built on hypnotic pressure and heady groove. Rooted in Psychedelic House, the title track rolls forward on elastic bass, crisp drums and lead lines that keep everything in motion without ever forcing the moment. It is the kind of record that locks dancers in early and stays with them deep into the night. The package gets pushed into different directions by a strong cast of remixers. No Static adds a sleeker, more stripped-back

It is a rare moment when two powerhouse artists unite for their first collaboration—rarer still when it marks a defining return. Some partnerships are so pivotal they demand once-in-a-lifetime lyrics—words that capture them, regardless of how difficult those lived experiences may be to transcribe. Such is the case for ‘Eclipsed By You’ — the first artistic coming-together of EDM songstress HALIENE and Anjuna mainstay Ilan Bluestone, and a striking return to trance for HALIENE

Her clubfloor-priming single ‘What U Like’ set the tone from ASOT 25 across stages throughout her debut Asia & Australia tour. Now Sarah de Warren follows it with ‘Games’ - a darker, more controlled exploration of power, tension and emotional manipulation on the dancefloor. Where the first single introduced the EP’s sonic world, ‘Games’ sharpens its edge. Built for the MainStage, de Warren’s sweet yet haunting vocal weaves through a darker, trance-leaning production, pairing

With Test Pressure, Tom Wax continues to refine his approach to techno, delivering an album that feels both consistent with his past work and distinctly contemporary. It’s a record that values evolution over reinvention, building on established ideas while introducing subtle new elements. The production is precise, with a focus on clarity and balance. Rhythms drive the tracks forward, while textures add depth and complexity. This interplay creates a sound that is both engagin

Terroir positions Goose Down within a lineage of producers who treat dance music as a textural medium rather than a purely functional one. Micah Smith’s approach emphasizes depth, layering, and subtle variation, resulting in a record that feels immersive without being overwhelming. The interplay between rhythm and texture is central here. Percussion is detailed yet unobtrusive, providing a foundation that supports rather than dominates. Over this, Smith layers melodic fragme

The Rising Artist Announces ‘As Soon As I Get Home’ EP UK/EU Tour in April Including Headline Show At London’s Village Underground BUY/STREAM HERE UK-based multi-instrumentalist, artist, DJ and producer Rules returns with his fourth single “Nothing Left ”, a deep, reflective club cut set for release on 15th April via Ninja Tune imprint Counter Records. The track features emotive vocals from Coldabank and SHYA, marking another evolution in Rules’ signature blend of atmosp

On Stand Or Fight , Prevision and TiM TASTE reduce club music to its barest psychological components. The release on Yellow Kitchen strips away ornamentation entirely, leaving behind a framework built on tension, contrast, and control. What emerges is a track that feels less like a performance and more like a system. Rhythmic elements operate with mechanical consistency, while the surrounding emptiness amplifies their impact. The absence of melody isn’t a limitation—it’s a de
