After months of speculation Dutch visionary Don Diablo has delivered his highly anticipated album ‘FORΞVΞR’ – out now via his HEXAGON imprint.

Several years in the making, FORΞVΞR is a carefully curated 21-track selection, that sees Don deftly move between genres and soundscapes to take his listeners on an aural journey that encompasses his past and present, into the future. True to form, the album features a host of collaborations with international stars such as Emeli Sandé, Galantis, Gucci Mane, Zak Abel, Andy Grammer and Ty Dolla $ign as well as offering a platform to rising acts such as Au/Ra, AR/CO & Freak Fantastique.

A labour of love, Don’s much-anticipated album is a deeply personal reflection of his journey over the last few years. Taking on many forms since he first began working on it, FORΞVΞR marks his ever-evolving sound and inherent gift to approach new genres with familiarity. As with every one of his creative outputs, from the album art to the final notes of the last track and the meticulously arranged tracks within, Don’s attention to detail is second to none. Don has enlisted legendary artist Terry Pastor, best known for his iconic album artwork for David Bowie’s Hunky Dory and Ziggy Stardust, fifty years ago, to create the album artwork, marking a new chapter in Don’s aesthetic moving forward.

Speaking about FORΞVΞR Don said, “After my last album ‘FUTURE’ I started working on the new album straight away. I also decided to do an album tour before the new album release this time so I could test out the new music in Tokyo, London, Milan, Paris and New York. After these shows I went back into the studio to put the finishing touches to the music when we suddenly went into a worldwide pandemic. The world changed and along with it my mind state. I decided to take my time and go back to the drawing table straight away. For the first time in a long time I had more time than ever to reflect and experiment. I was able to create without any outside pressure and put some of my most personal thoughts, feelings and emotions into my music. Every song on the final album now has its own unique story and place in my heart. I tried to maintain my trademark sound as a producer whilst showcasing a more mature side of myself as a musician. Almost two years later than planned, but here we are…I am excited to finally share “FORΞVΞR” with the world!”

A world-class producer, Don’s innate ability to tap into different genres whilst always staying true to his signature futuristic sound has earned him legions of fans across the world. Created with a level of love, dedication and perfectionism that one can only expect from Don Diablo, with the release of FORΞVΞR the globally adored Dutch man is set to leave yet another indelible mark on the dance music community.

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.

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.
