Rhadoo, Petre Inspirescu and Raresh at Club Guesthouse Bucharest’s iconic Club Guesthouse celebrates 15 years with a new documentary, If These Walls Could Talk, a film that traces the venue’s evolution from a hidden house party on Traian 42 to one of Europe’s most respected hubs for deep, hypnotic and long-form electronic music. The documentary blends intimate interviews with Cap, Herodot, Edward, Priku and architect Corvin Cristian with rare archive footage capturing the club’s quiet rise. Guesthouse’s journey has been defined by subtle transformation rather than spectacle. Each relocation preserved the same core values: marathon storytelling through sound, engineering-level attention to acoustics, and a community that comes not to be seen but to disappear into the flow. The film highlights the architectural and sonic craftsmanship behind its reputation, showing how the club became a symbol of purity in the Romanian minimal and deep-tech continuum. Ultimately, If These Walls Could Talk is a meditation on time, space and collective experience. It reminds us that Guesthouse grew into an institution not through hype but through consistency, intention and the kind of deep listening that has shaped a generation of dancers and artists.

Devin Wild- Press Photo Devin Wild released his new EP "Among The Noise", released on SCANTRAXX. The EP signals a bold shift in his sound, moving from accessible melodies to a darker, more aggressive, and underground-driven style. The EP’s sound is intense and raw: the cinematic opening of "Understanding (Intro) "sets the tone, while "Chaos (Always Comes)" — featuring Nathalie Blue’s vocals — lays an emotive foundation with deep basslines, sharp kicks, and palpable energy. "Dance With Madness" and "Hit Back" push the project into industrial-techno territories, balancing tension and dynamics with precision. "Silent (Left The System)" continues the descent into cold, mechanical atmospheres, while the outro "Among The Noise (Outro)" leaves listeners in a state of suspense and anticipation. Fans familiar with Devin Wild’s melodic work may be surprised: this time, the Dutch artist opts for harsher, more conceptual expressions. The collaboration with Nathalie Blue on "Chaos (Always Comes)" is the only vocal feature, highlighting the contrast with the remaining instrumental tracks, all charged with raw and experimental energy. With "Among The Noise", Devin Wild proves once again why he remains a leading figure in the avant-garde hard dance scene: fearless, visionary, and redefining the boundaries of the genre.

Vicius (BR) - Press Photo Brazilian producer Vicius (BR) debuts with his first full-length album, "I Dream a Dream", a flowing collection of ambient textures, house grooves, and techno pulses. From the ethereal opening of "Intro", with light synths and airy pads, to the suspended close of "Fever Dream [Outro Version]" featuring Zanna (BR), the album moves between weightless reflection and subtle rhythmic tension.

Hayden F French techno producer and DJ Hayden F returns with Thoughts and Prayers, a five-track EP complemented by a powerful remix from Mexican techno veteran Fixon. Released on his own Silencio Records label, the record traces a sharp line between punishing, fast-paced rhythms and hypnotic melodic passages that lend the whole release a sense of lift. It is tough, engrossing music, built for full immersion rather than surface-level impact. The sound of the EP moves between hard, driving percussion and moments of unexpected clarity. Hayden threads in drifting pads, rising tones and small flashes of harmony that cut through the weight. The tracks feel tightly coiled but never static, shifting shape in ways that keep the tension alive while opening space for something more emotive to emerge. Hayden F has spent more than a decade refining this approach. His productions and DJ sets come from a place of precise construction, shaped by a cinematic instinct where every element is a character and every track a self-contained world. The familiar dualities of his work anchor the EP. Somber depth against clarity, force against brightness, restraint against emotion. It is a balance he has carried through releases on Obscuur, Room Trax, TUTU, Vanity Dust, Off Recordings, Trapez and Trau-ma, and it is the quality that caught Richie Hawtin’s attention, leading him to play Hayden’s unreleased Urban Pressure across a long run of clubs and festivals. Silencio Records gives the EP a fitting home. The label and its associated events have become a steady hub for underground techno, with artists such as Exos, Paula Cazenave, Marcel Dettmann, Julieta Kopp, Flug and Madwoman shaping its catalogue and its club identity. Silencio parties have welcomed a growing circle of international guests who share the same lean, shadowy aesthetic.

ONFAYA The German-born duo ONFAYA make a powerful return with “Todo Pasa 2.0,” a modernised redesign of the original track by Ecuadorian talents Diego Narvaez & Zunno. This marks not only their second time collaborating with Narvaez and Zunno, but also the fourth official release under the ONFAYA name. In this updated version, the duo preserve the emotional weight of the original while steering the track into contemporary house territory. Rather than approaching it as a straight remix, ONFAYA went deeper — dismantling the foundational concept and reconstructing it from within. Todo Pasa 2.0 reveals a stronger musical narrative and refined rhythmic feel, weaving together earthy, organic percussion, an expressive children’s choir and a flowing, steady groove. The composition subtly blends afro-house elements with textures from organic and indie-leaning electronic music, resulting in something both elevating and grounded. A staple in ONFAYA’s sets, the track often features as their closing moment. Rather than chasing late-night chaos, it guides the crowd into a shared emotional space — a climactic yet gentle uplift, built not on volume, but on resonance. The duo Pavo & Sinnerman began their journey in 2022 under the name FAYA. A year later, they re-emerged as ONFAYA — a title that embodies their relentless energy and blistering stage presence. Quite simply: they burn bright. Pavo entered the electronic music scene in 2015, while Sinnerman refined his technical skill through a professional DJ and producer academy beginning in 2016. Both rapidly became well-known within southern Germany’s club network. In 2021, they teamed up — unknowingly setting the stage for a pivotal moment on December 2nd, 2023. That’s when everything took off. What started as casual daily content — short reels captured from their YouTube DJ sessions — suddenly exploded online. Engagement surged, bringing in global attention, international bookings, new creative collaborations and, eventually, the release of their own music. Then, in early 2025, ONFAYA literally stepped off the map. They became one of the incredibly rare DJ acts to perform in Antarctica, joining the ranks of only a handful including Diplo and Blond:ish. From that point, ONFAYA evolved from a project into a movement. Today, their sound is groovy, raw, organic and unrestricted. From intimate underground rooms to major destinations like Illuzion Phuket and KOKO London, ONFAYA bring a dynamic fusion of electronic styles that resonate deeply with audiences across the globe. Their debut single “I Can Feel It” — released via the highly respected Déepalma Records — laid the groundwork and was widely praised. With “Todo Pasa 2.0,” ONFAYA continue to advance as one of the most innovative and impactful duos in contemporary house music. ONFAYA are not simply evolving — they are accelerating. And this is only the start. STREAM | DOWNLOAD “TODO PASA 2.0”: https://linktr.ee/todopasa2.0

Oliver Sullivan - Press Photo Swiss DJ and producer Oliver Sullivan returns with his new single “Tik Tok”, featuring the vocals of Scarlett, release on Kiss The Lake. The track marks another decisive step forward for the 23-year-old artist as he continues to rise across the international dance scene. “Tik Tok” release a high-energy pop-dance sound built on tight percussion, punchy basslines, and a hook centred on the tension of time slipping away. Scarlett’s bold and expressive vocal performance injects urgency, emotion, and movement, pushing listeners to embrace the moment and let the beat take control. The result is a neon-lit, adrenaline-driven anthem built for festival stages, club nights, and high-energy playlists. Born in Emmental, Switzerland, Oliver Sullivan has carved his place as one of the country’s most promising young talents. Inspired early by Martin Garrix, Avicii, Robin Schulz, and Lost Frequencies, he began DJing at 14 and producing at 16, eventually breaking through in 2023 with his hit “Summer on Me”, which surpassed 1.9 million streams and charted globally. His collaboration with Gloria Jones on the 60-year celebration of “Tainted Love” further solidified his rising profile. Now preparing for his first live tour Safari 2025/26, Oliver continues to refine a sound defined by uplifting melodies, emotional hooks, and electrifying energy. With “Tik Tok”, he release one of his most infectious releases yet — a track that captures the rush of the present moment and refuses to let go.

BUY / STREAM 'FOREVER' HERE Thuishaven and Nuno Dos Santos go hand in hand, a true staple of the Dutch electronic scene and a longtime friend of the venue. Haven Trax proudly welcomes him with his ‘Forever’ EP, arriving on 14th November - a four-track journey that channels the timeless energy of classic house with a modern touch. From his legendary residencies at Amsterdam’s Club 11 and Trouw to his current stint at Utrecht’s Nar, the Lisbon-born DJ/producer continues to leave his mark with quality releases on Compost, Bedrock Records, Sungate, as well as his own acclaimed Something Happening Somewhere (SoHaSo). Now, with his ‘Forever’ EP, Nuno continues to explore his deep and vibrant connection to the club: “These tracks came together pretty quickly. Energetic, fun, and heartfelt.” The EP opens with ‘Reignite’, a powerful, rave-inspired cut, finely balanced and bursting with expertly nuanced sirens and piano stabs that light up the floor. Up next, ‘Homing’ echoes rich chords and thudding kicks that wind their way through a cavernous soundscape dripping in acid, while the ‘Dub’ version accentuates the mood and tension, bringing spatial textures to the fore. Lastly, the title track ‘Forever’ combines a timeless classic house sensibility with deep, arpeggiated synths and lush pads, channeling the pure old-school house spirit.

RANFFIS EL NICHE Déepalma Records drops a brand-new remix today, with Pango reworking Ranffis El Niche’s “Abre La Puerta” into a warm, groove-driven Organic House cut. The original from Cuban–Sevillian artist Ranffis El Niche is known for its rich Latin character, expressive instrumentation, and flowing rhythm. Pango steps in to reinterpret the track with a laid-back Latin house flavour, adding natural percussion, silky melodic layers, and a breezy summertime feel. Pango marks the newest creative direction for Jose Ignacio Pandalet Gonzalez, better known as Hosse. Under this alias, he leans into a more organic, melodic palette influenced by Organic House, Chill House, and Lounge. His remix highlights the song’s vocal hooks, Flamenco-leaning guitar textures, and vibrant adlibs, while introducing his own blend of percussive swing, smooth piano chords, and refined melodic touches. Born in Seville and now based in Ibiza, Pandalet’s musical roots run deep — shaped early by his father’s background as a composer and strengthened through influences of Jazz, Soul, and Funk. After starting his electronic journey as Virolo and studying Sound Engineering at Middlesex University, he went on to build a strong reputation as Hosse in the House and Tech-House scene, delivering standout releases including “Con Son” with David Penn. With Pango, he explores a more relaxed, sunlit side of his artistry. The new “Abre La Puerta (Pango Remix)” channels the soul of Cuba and southern Spain, offering an uplifting, organic groove wrapped in Déepalma’s signature warmth.
