Chico Rose Talks 2020, Streaming Success, Deeper Music, And More!
Following an impressive string of releases in 2020, Chico Rose closed off an eventful year with his brand new single ‘Do It Like Me’. Featuring a cool 80’s vibe and the sultry vocals of B-Case, it’s a tune that seems made to highlight playlists in the most sensual way. An exciting next step in Chico Rose’s continuously evolving sound, it’s out now on Mentalo Music. We had the pleasure of talking to Chico Rose about this new track and more.
Let’s kick it off with ‘Do It Like Me’, how happy are you with the finished product and its home on Spinnin’ Records/Mentalo Music?
“It was amazing to work with B-Case on this song! We are really happy with the end result. It’s my first time releasing on Robin Schulz’s label and I’m happy with the results so far!”
This single, although it includes your infectious slap house style, it also showcases a deeper, vocal-driven style that we haven’t heard much from you. How enjoyable was it to branch out into this style of music?
“I really enjoy making more deeper songs. That’s what I’m focusing more on lately. I think it really worked out well on ‘Do It Like Me’.”
Although 2020 was not a normal year, you seemed to shine through with a lot of notable releases. When all of dance music live shows seemed to freeze in March, did you have a plan to dominate the streaming platforms with your releases?
“Thanks! Actually, there was no plan at all. I never thought my covers of ‘Sad’ and ‘Somebody’s Watching Me’ would blow up like this. I’m really grateful for all the support I get!”
Speaking of 2020, you released a total of 11 tracks. How did you manage to keep up such a high output of releases?
“Wow! I didn’t even know i released 11 songs this year.. I don’t know actually. I was going with the flow and the songs just came. I spent a lot of time in the studio during the lockdown. Thanks to my team we got everything planned very well.”
Moving into 2021, and a possible vaccine leading to the return to live shows, do you have a plan to keep fans across the world satisfied with new music along with getting back to touring?
“I’m going to do the same as I already did. Release a lot of music. More club music coming too from January! I’m also doing a contest together with Spinnin’ Records. Young producers can finish my track and win a official release on Spinnin’ Records.”
When full touring returns, is there a city or country you are most excited about returning to?
“Tokyo for sure! I really love the vibe there. Can’t wait to be back!”
Speaking on productions, you’ve modernised classics such as ‘Somebody’s Watching Me’ and ‘Show Me Love’. What other classics would you like to put your touches on?
“I’m not sure yet. Sometimes I just hear a old song and the ideas begin to flow. I’m really happy I’m able to work on these covers and release them. I’m focusing more on originals lately.”
Ending the interview, do you have any 2021 releases coming that you might want to announce with our followers? 😉
“Yes! A lot… That’s all I can say for now :)”

BETH Turns Up the Energy With New Single ‘Wait’
Scottish producer BETH returns on The Cross Records with new single Wait, following a breakout 2026 of festival slots, Ibiza dates and Radio 1 support.
In the space of a year, BETH has gone from respected up and comer to a genuine festival act. Her debut on The Cross Records, “Keep It Movin’,” is closing in on 1 million streams, and she’s kept up a steady run of releases on labels like TSHA’s Jackfruit, Eats Everything’s Edible, and Melon Bomb Records, along with a well received remix of Karen Harding’s “Island.” That output has earned her support on BBC Radio 1, with plays from Sarah Story and Arielle Free.
Her live schedule has kept pace too. This year she’s played TRNSMT Festival, Sub Club, Cabaret Voltaire, and SWG3 in Scotland, Mas Que Nada in London, and Lakota in Bristol, plus Ibiza dates at Hï, Cova Santa, and Pikes.

“Wait” marks a step forward in her production. Where “Keep It Movin'” leaned into sultry, harmonic melodies, “Wait” goes bigger and brighter, built around euphoric piano chords, a driving 90s inspired break, and deep reese bass. It’s a feel good summer record from an artist whose rise shows no signs of slowing down.

Deadlynoiz Breaks Bass House Boundaries In New Single ‘Rock The House’
The ever-evolving Deadlynoiz is back with another new single ‘Rock The House’ adding to his stacked 2026 repertoire.
Stepping into the world of bass house for this track, Deadlynoiz has produced a hugely impactful hit brimmed with his hallmark strengths. ‘Rock The House’ is a fantastic showcase of his ability to design and blend together a myriad of creative synths to deliver powerful soundscapes. The track keeps pumping from start to finish but is dynamic in its energy shifting from the more melodic verses to the aggressive, bass face inducing choruses. Deadlynoiz is consistently looking to evolve his productions and has leaned into more experimental territories here with emphatic results.
His development as an artist is evident from both his productions and his accolades as he’s attracted the attention of LVLD Music. He’s dropped a slew of hits with them and is continuing to develop their relationship with the release of ‘Rock The House’ on their label. Since it’s release the track has already raked in thousands of streams and he’s pushed onto releasing even more music in ‘Magic’ and ‘Block.’ Now bringing in over 20,000 streams a month on Spotify it’s clear that Deadlynoiz’s hard work is paying off as his fanbase continues to grow.
‘Rock The House’ is another step forward in Deadlynoiz’s evolution in sound and development as an artist. With every release he’s proving his abilities in the studio and with the rate he’s working at, there’s plenty more to come.

Scarper Drops ‘Off-Cuts (2014-2021)’ Compilation
Scarper releases ‘Off-Cuts (2014-2021)’, a collection of eight unreleased tracks from the era behind his debut album ‘Warmer Squares’ and ‘E-Funk’.
UK artist Scarper has released ‘Off-Cuts (2014-2021)’, a hand-picked collection of eight previously unreleased tracks pulled from the same period that produced his critically acclaimed debut album ‘Warmer Squares’ and his 2020 dancefloor tune ‘E-Funk’, which has been experiencing a resurgence thanks to a recent physical release on a new imprint.
The project is exactly what it sounds like, Scarper going back through his studio archives and finding the demos, jams, and ideas from that era that were good enough to polish up and put out. “I realised I had quite a few demos, jams and ideas on my laptop from that period, some of which were decent enough to polish up and get out into the world,” he said. “It’s a snapshot of where I was musically at the time, so I thought I’d package them together as a retrospective rather than a proper release, giving people something to enjoy while I crack on with the next project.”
The eight tracks cover a lot of ground, from the epic opening chords of ‘Skynet’ to the acid squelches of ‘Steppe’ and the string arrangements of ‘Halocline’. It is the kind of release that rewards the people who have been paying attention, and sits comfortably alongside some of his best work.
Scarper has built his career almost entirely on his own terms, releasing through his own imprint Plexus Records and picking up support from Orbital, Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig, Rinse FM, BBC 6 Music, Mixmag, and DJ Mag along the way.
‘Off-Cuts (2014–2021)’ is out now on Plexus Records.
