Melbourne’s Daniel Cuda steps up for his biggest release yet, landing on Damian Lazarus’ Rebellion label with a killer three-tracker, ‘Mulholland Cowboy’, out on 16 May 2025. Buy/Stream it here: https://orcd.co/rbl116.
Coming out of the city’s tight-knit underground scene, Cuda’s built a rep for raw, groove-driven cuts that blur Deep Tech and stripped-back House. He’s previously dropped heat on labels like Techaway, Nervous and his own Milk Crate imprint – earning support from legends like Richie Hawtin, Roger Sanchez and Lazarus himself.
Now, after Lazarus championed tracks on Cuda’s label, the link-up feels full circle.
The ‘Mulholland Cowboy’ EP brings three versatile tracks, each built with the DJ booth in mind.
First up is ‘Dip’ – a bouncy, club-ready weapon with cheeky vocal samples, wobbly synths and a chunky low-end that locks you in. Late-night mischief meets slick minimalism.
The title track, ‘Mulholland Cowboy’, leans darker. Brooding builds, evolving textures and a moody vibe made to shift the atmosphere mid-set. It’s cinematic but club-focused – with the name inspired by the early 2000s film ‘Mulholland Drive’.
We premiere ‘Mulholland Cowboy’ below:
Closing the EP, ‘Come Get It’ goes heavy on rhythm – bubbling drums and a rolling, percussive groove designed to keep the momentum up without losing the funk.
“Mulholland Cowboy is my way of blending club energy with a bit of personal flair,” says Cuda. “I always write with my DJ sets in mind – ‘Dip’ especially hits that sweet spot between groove and personality.”
