Lenzman | Credit: Earth Agency The drum & bass community is mourning the loss of Dutch producer, DJ and label founder Lenzman, who has died following a three-and-a-half-year battle with cancer. He was 47 years old. Born Teije van Vliet, Lenzman became one of the defining figures in soulful drum & bass over the past two decades, earning widespread respect for his emotionally rich productions and meticulous approach to the genre. His family confirmed that he passed away on Saturday, 11th July, after a long fight with kidney cancer, which was first diagnosed in January 2023. Following his diagnosis, Lenzman underwent surgery to remove a kidney before later requiring emergency brain surgery after the cancer spread. Despite multiple setbacks and further treatment, he continued making music, running his label and performing whenever his health allowed. Earlier this year, it was confirmed that treatment had come to an end, prompting a series of fundraising events organised by the drum & bass community to support him and his family. Lenzman first rose to prominence through releases on Goldie's legendary Metalheadz imprint, where his 2014 album ‘Looking At The Stars’ established him as one of the genre's leading melodic voices. In 2016, he launched his own label, The North Quarter, which quickly became one of the most respected homes for soulful drum & bass, championing artists including Redeyes, Tokyo Prose and FD while helping shape a new generation of producers. His influence extended far beyond his own catalogue. Known for blending liquid drum & bass with elements of jungle, hip hop and soul, Lenzman's productions earned admiration from artists across the electronic music spectrum, while his label became synonymous with thoughtful, musical drum & bass that prioritised emotion alongside dancefloor impact. Tributes have poured in from across the global drum & bass community, with artists, labels and fans remembering not only his contribution to the music but also his generosity, warmth and commitment to supporting emerging talent.

To celebrate the release, Balanka shares ten records that have helped shape his journey as both a producer and DJ. "This selection of tracks reflects so much of what shaped me as a producer. Some of them take me back to unforgettable moments on dancefloors, in clubs and at festivals, while others became part of deeply personal moments that I shared only with myself. Somehow, every one of these records left a mark on me and connected with something deeper inside." Lee Foss, Detlef & Anabel Englund – Thunder And Lightning "The energy of this track made me realise that groove and depth can coexist. The vocal and melodic elements have always been a huge source of inspiration for me." Ramin Rezaie – Silky "This track has such a hypnotic, deep energy. I love how syncopated the bassline is, and it never loses its magic no matter how many times I hear it." PAX & Gorgon City – Alive "This one reminds me of a moment when the scene felt like it was entering a new chapter. The deep sound design from PAX and Gorgon City always takes me back to my first years on the dancefloor." Olene Kadar feat. D-Low – Little Miss Dynamite "Bringing in a true classic, 'Little Miss Dynamite' is one of the tracks that shaped my production style the most. The seductive bassline and vocal capture everything I love about old-school, club-focused house music." Ben Sterling – Apathetic Behaviour "This track gave me production ideas that I still use today, from the 808 drums to the way the arrangement keeps the dancefloor moving. And on top of that, it's still a secret weapon." Gorgon City feat. Katy Menditta – Imagination "Gorgon City have been one of my biggest inspirations since the beginning. This classic showed me that it's possible to bring real emotion into groove-driven house music without losing the energy." Ben Sterling feat. Caitlyn Scarlett – Don't Truss "I'm always drawn to tracks with a psychedelic, deep atmosphere and an underground house aesthetic, and this one from Ben is the perfect example." Proudly People – Bring Back "Proudly People were a huge inspiration when I first started producing. To me, they're masters of groove. They taught me how to make music that's deeply danceable, and out of all their tracks, this has always been my favourite." Joe Vanditti & Mene – Antava "Mene and Joe Vanditti taught me a lot about building authentic grooves, and 'Antava' is probably the best example of that. The way the vocal locks into the beat is just perfect." Paul C – Diamond Dogs "'Diamond Dogs' is one of my all-time favourite tracks to play. It's completely timeless, and every time I drop it the dancefloor reacts in the best way. It's a true secret weapon." Balanka's selections perfectly reflect the groove-first philosophy behind 'F To This Beat'. Blending timeless house classics with modern underground weapons, each record has played a role in shaping the Brazilian's production style, where hypnotic rhythms, infectious basslines and subtle emotion combine to create records designed for the dancefloor.

D.J.S Swiss collective D.J.S have quickly established themselves as a name to watch through their blend of melodic house, afro-inspired rhythms and immersive dancefloor energy. Formed by Dymos, Jay Fase and Shizzo, the trio have already taken their ODYS concept across Europe and the Middle East while performing at Caprices Festival, Montreux Jazz Festival and Eden Ibiza. Now making their debut on Arodes' Unreleased Records with 'One of Those Nights', the trio deliver a dreamy, groove-driven record already earning support from Black Coffee, Claptone and Ilario Alicante. To celebrate the release, we asked D.J.S to share ten tracks that continue to shape their productions, DJ sets and musical philosophy. Jimi Jules x Black Coffee – Trippy Yeah "A must-have in your playlist. Beautiful production. 'Trippy Yeah' feels like a trip through a warm, hypnotic dancefloor. We picked it because it nails the balance between organic textures and hypnotic simplicity, guiding the crowd without overpowering them. In the studio, it helps us craft basslines that breathe and maintain melodic clarity. It's a reminder that music can be both soulful and urban, a signature we aim to bring to our productions." BLOND:ISH x KeeQ ft. Chloe Paige - The Cure "'The Cure' is a masterclass in knowing when to let go and when to drive the energy. We chose it for its powerful groove and its ability to trigger collective emotions on the dancefloor. In production, it inspires us to write sections that play with contrast, moving from darker atmospheres into melodic passages that linger. It also encourages us to explore more ethereal vocal textures while staying dancefloor-focused. What a track. When it's time to make the crowd go wild, this is a perfect match." Adriatique – Miracle (RÜFÜS DU SOL Remix) "'Miracle' shows how a remix can completely redefine the emotional space of a set. We chose it because it brings the crowd into a shared intimacy without ever becoming cliché. In the studio, it reminds us how important arrangement is when building emotional crescendos that still work on the dancefloor. A perfect closing track, or whenever you want to get everyone emotional. Definitely Dymos' favourite." Dymos & Shizzo – Desire (Jay Fase Remix) "'Desire' brings a punchy groove that never lets up. We picked it because it demonstrates how a simple theme can become raw energy on the dancefloor. In production, it inspires us to push basslines and percussion while keeping a clear melodic identity. It's also a lesson in building effective drops without overwhelming the listener. A true masterpiece remix from our genius Jay Fase. This kind of track perfectly represents the energy we bring on stage." Shahin Shantiaei & WINCK – Prayer "'Prayer' is a banger thanks to its intensity and density of textures. We kept it for its sense of urgency and its ability to grab a crowd that's already moving. In the studio, it pushes us to layer sounds gradually and refine transitions so every element has its own place within the mix. It's a reference for writing passages that naturally assert themselves. Let's keep it underground." Somma – Be Like You "'Be Like You' takes us into a never-ending exploration of deep landscapes. The opening guitar is an invitation to travel and experience music as an emotional journey rather than just a groove. In production, it inspires us to weave organic motifs and natural textures that encourage listeners to stay with the record. We love playing this track." D.J.S – One of Those Nights "'One of Those Nights' is our baby. It captures pure emotion, timeless energy and deep vibes. We chose it because it carries a sentimental energy that works equally well in back-to-back sets and during more attentive listening after the show. In the studio, it inspired Jay Fase to write melodies that keep a connection with the crowd while remaining subtle enough to evolve naturally. What a guitar solo on the bridge." Fred again.. & Skrillex – Baby Again.. "'Baby Again..' is a showcase of a devastating bassline and immediate dancefloor damage. We included it for its radical groove and its power to completely transform a room. From a production perspective, it reminds us how important a clean drop and punchy percussion can be when resetting the energy of a set. It's also a brilliant example of how collaboration can push sonic boundaries." Meloko, Garla & Konvex – IF U EVER "'IF U EVER' is a hypnotic exploration of textures and loops that slowly weave together. We chose it for its ability to carry the listener into an intimate, almost cinematic world. When producing our own music, it encourages us to focus on subtle details and repeating motifs that build atmosphere instead of relying on constant big moments. One of the biggest club weapons of 2025. A must-have." Jay Fase – Pamoja (Jay Fase Minor Mix) "This track fuses afro grooves with kinetic, expansive dancefloor energy, rooted yet open. It's on the list because of its human warmth and the way its tempo naturally nudges the crowd forward. The production focuses on marrying organic percussion with precise pocketed grooves to create something that hits hard without ever feeling crowded. Supported by Keinemusik, Bedouin and BLOND, it highlights how cross-genre collaboration can push our sonic boundaries." The records selected by D.J.S reveal the foundations behind 'One of Those Nights'. From hypnotic afro house and melodic club cuts to timeless dancefloor records built around groove and emotion, each selection reflects the collective's approach to creating music that connects people while maintaining depth, atmosphere and movement.

Hot Since 82 Hot Since 82 has unveiled ‘Life’s Too Short’, the second single taken from his forthcoming album ‘Obsessions’, arriving via his own Knee Deep In Sound imprint on 10th July. While the album reflects Daley Padley's personal and creative evolution, the latest single tells a story of patience.

SMR Scottish producer SMR has joined the Teletech roster with ‘LUV3RBOY’, a hard-hitting two-track EP that showcases his uncompromising approach to modern rave music. Representing the latest step in the Glaswegian artist's rise through the harder electronic music scene, the release blends industrial techno, hardcore and gabber influences while retaining a distinct sense of experimentation that separates it from more conventional peak-time productions. The title track wastes little time establishing its intent. Hammering kicks, relentless low-end movement and abrasive industrial grooves create immediate impact before the arrangement shifts into more unexpected territory through futuristic synth work, electro-inspired textures and haunting vocal elements. The contrast between mechanical intensity and cinematic atmosphere gives ‘LUV3RBOY’ a distinctive identity, balancing raw power with detailed sound design. The second cut, ‘Gabber From Glasgow’, takes a more direct approach. Built around pounding hard techno rhythms, rave-inspired synths and commanding MC vocals, the track pays tribute to classic gabber while reimagining its uncompromising energy through a contemporary lens. Fast-paced, aggressive and unapologetically club-focused, it captures the spirit of underground rave culture while fitting naturally within Teletech's modern sonic aesthetic. Over recent years, SMR has steadily developed a reputation for pushing beyond traditional hard techno conventions, drawing influence from industrial music, hardcore and leftfield electronic sounds to create productions that feel both destructive and inventive. With ‘LUV3RBOY’, he delivers one of his strongest statements to date. Combining relentless dancefloor functionality with imaginative production choices, the EP marks an impressive debut on one of the UK's leading labels for harder electronic music while further cementing SMR as one of Scotland's most exciting emerging talents.
