As far as defying conventions goes, Frits is on a whole new level of realness. With his new label Bobby Donny, he's putting out leftfield electronic music with a big F.Y. attitude and he's not too shy to tell you why the current state of the house scene is so utterly boring to him.There's even rumours of a new project with some legendary and like minded producers, so our advice is to keep an eye out for this.His love for creating alter ego's and the time he spends curating his techno outpost Will & Ink, alongside his ruthless decision making process in selecting tracks for an EP, makes you wonder how and why he even makes time to release house music. But he does. And we're glad, because with each release, you know you'll be in for a treat.After releasing his album Rarely pure, never simple early 2015 on Wolf Music and releases on the fresh Icelandic label Borg and Darko Esser's Wolfskuil Records, he's back on Heist with his follow up to his 2014 Family Dinner EP.Rising sun, falling coconut is an exploration into fuzzy synths and drunk organs, all drenched in his signature and ever so dusty grooves.Basically, a case of classic Heist, classic Frits.Sincerely yours, Lars & Maarten

Alex Arnout's vinyl debut on Infuse finds the London based producer in fine form. Title track Primal drifts along on warm pads with a fresh female spoken vocal with 6 Million Ways offering up a dancefloor roller.The flip side sees This Beat offering up flecks of acid with Alex's trademark tight production whilst label head Enzo Siragusa and Seb Zito provide a tidy alternative take of primal to round off the ep....

We're really happy to get Andy on Heist after his successful collab with his buddy Max Graef on the Jungle EP back in 2013. He delivers a great 4-track EP that ranges from the synth-arp love affair of 'The same for me', to the heavily sampled disco jam 'Epsilon girls.' Check out 'Hermano' and 'Merkin' for a dreamy old school Chicago vibe, both done with a great sense of history and an added touch Andy's modern production and sampling skills.Sincerely yours,Lars & Maarten

What we feel for Max Graef might just be our biggest man-crush ever. We came across his music through his own label "Box aus Holz" and we're just as stoked as he is to have him as our second release. The A1 track "Jungle" (with multi-talented his Aussie pen pal Andy Hart) is probably the most sought after track of our sets lately and has caused quite a flow of emails ("what the hell is this??)_after our Boiler room set. It's got that ass-shaking groove without being a regular four to the floor banger. It rather creeps up from behind with some perfectly sampled scats and a cool duet of cowbells and stabs. Add some funky jungle effects and you've got a track that's stuck in your head for the rest of the day On the B-side, we've got "Ignorance is Bliss". This track is exactly what we love about modern day deephouse. It's got a rough warehouse vibe on the lows, a hint of disco and a set of 'rhodesy' keys running through the track to set the mood. "Zitze" is the last track of the EP with layers and layers of vocals, textures and keys taking turns and a great shuffle that runs through the track that makes it just as much a good listen, as a dancefloor jam. Enjoy! Sincerely yours, Lars & Maarten

Needing very little introduction here is soulful Scotsman Al Kent, who delivers the dirty goods for his first outing on RNT. Good Inside and 4006 are a pair of dusty reworks, as gritty and groovy as you like. But the prize of this EP might just be Come Back Home, the crown jewel of his decade-earlier Secret Sounds collection, finally getting a proper vinyl for the first time ever!

First EP of the label by the label-bosses themselves; Detroit Swindle - Releases on Freerange, Dirt Crew, Saints & Sonnets and more - Just back from their first US tour in May 2013 - Pressing on 180 grs black vinyl Info: It's not often that silly, boyish dreams come true. But, if you take a closer look at our past 12 months, dreams seem to come true every other day. We've had a great year with releases on such great labels and had the opportunity to play our music all over the world and we've enjoyed every minute of this musical rollercoaster. And today, we've got another dream that's turning into reality: We're starting our own label.This is Heist Recordings, and you're looking at our very first release. We're extremely proud to share this two track EP of our own music with you and we hope you'll like it as much as we do. The break up is a track that checks all the boxes of the signature DS sound. An infectious set of airy chords, a bumpy bass-line and a lush female vocal give the track that feeling that bridges everything we love about the house from back in the days with the things that get everyone excited today. The make up is a deeper track, but still a genuine house tune, with some repetitive almost hypnotic vocals and stabs and of course, a pumping groove. You'll lose track of everything halfway through the break, but as soon as the beat kicks in, you know its business time. This is just the first step. Enjoy it, and be sure to keep an eye out for more of Heist in the near future. Sincerely yours, Detroit Swindle

All good things come to an end, and The Very Polish Cut-Outs is no different. The fifth sampler will be the last in the much loved & long running series. For the farewell record, label boss Zambon has selected five unique reworks from top producers from Poland and beyond.Side A is aimed at the dancefloor. 'KIEDY BYLEM MALYM CHLOPCEM' was the biggest hit in the long career of Tadeusz Nalepa, the king of Polish blues. The irresistible, smooth guitar groove is combined with conscious lyrics about different views of what's important at different stages of life, served in the form of a conversation between father and son. Miod crew transform this beautiful song into peak-time killer, tailored exactly for the needs of a modern dancefloor.Moscow's man of the moment Beard In Dust edits 'BIALA SOWA, BIALA DAMA, BIALY KRUK' by Kram into a flawless disco funk bomb, fuelled by cheesy synth action. A slice of Eastern European B-Boy disco breaks.Side B brings more ethereal and psychedelic flavours to the table. 'NA KOLANA PASTUSZKOWIE' comes from Laboratorium, Poland's answer to Weather Report. Their unique take on fusion is remixed here by Daniel Drumz, one of the heroes of Polish hiphop & beat scene. This longtime turntablist leaves his rap roots and travels to the psychedelic coast to bring you an amazing piece of Baltic Beat.Last two tracks are chopped and looped by Australian hero Carpentaria in a truly Balearic fashion. 'ZA OSTATNI GROSZ' by Budka Suflera charms the listener with dripping pianos and a misty, endless soft rock groove (with added swirling synths played here by Brennan Green himself), while ZACZAROWNE MIASTO by Kombi is a dark, cinematic piece of slow synth pop.It may be the end, but The Very Polish Cut-Outs finishes off in fine style.
