Pioneering hardstyle trailblazers D-Block & S-te-Fan return to the release radar with ‘Enter Your Mind’, a 16-track sonic journey featuring previously-released tracks from throughout the year, in addition to 8 remixes of some of the pair’s greatest hits. The endeavor directly follows up previous original 2021 productions like ‘Good Times’ and ‘Inside My Head’. Out now via Scantraxx Recordz, ‘Enter Your Mind’ is available to listen to across all streaming platforms.

Already a hit via highly impressive YouTube and Spotify streams, the 16-track album serves as quintessential hardstyle listening. Kicking things off, ‘Believe’ starts on a high note, featuring a soaring vocal paired alongside stabbing synths. A buildup quickly ensues, and is followed by a hefty slew of relentlessly uncompromising bass. In all, the tune is anthemic and larger-than-life throughout its entirety.

‘Diamond Hearts’ takes the reins next and boasts a heartfelt, emotionally-charged opening that is characterized by textured singing, and an eventual drop unlike anything heard before it. Rife with a propelling ambiance from start-to-finish, the unyielding track is a prime follow-up to ‘Believe’, setting the energetic tone for the rest of the album with ease.

The main track ‘Enter Your Mind’ ups the ante tenfold, and is replete with high octane sensibilities and powerfully profound production elements that incite nothing but sheer awe in the listener. The vocal execution is flawless, and overall does a terrific job of amping up the listening audience with each passing second, and a plethora of bass follows each time.

‘Gates of Paradise’ continues this barrage of bass, a perfect transition from the lively titular track. The melodious singing acts as a prime juxtaposition to the enticingly ruthless hardstyle sounds, a perfect blend of both intense and calm. This track showcases the versatile duo’s ability to traverse the seemingly rigid boundaries of hardstyle, infusing it with both beautiful sounds and the signature thumping flair their body of work typically possesses.

‘Harder Generation’ is a sonic gem, and highlights D-Block & S-te-Fan’s ability to significantly turn up the energy with their unique signature brand of hardstyle. Propulsively driving, the track is full of sharp, serrated soundscapes and masterful synth manipulation, a great addition to the ‘Enter Your Mind’ album.

‘Fearless’ harkens back to the emotional, heartfelt vibe of ‘Gates of Paradise’, instilling an allure courtesy of the harmonious vocal present near its beginning half. The bass drop takes over the sonic space eventually, thrusting one into a full-on hardstyle rollercoaster of sound that will leave a want for even more.

‘Losing Control’, the penultimate track’, is a hard-hitting offering that leaves the touching emotion of its predecessor the wayside. Instead, it opts for ceaseless hardstyle elements such as warbly bass buildups and nonstop energy, an amazing testament to D-Block & S-te-Fan’s solid artistry.

‘The Future’ caps things off, and features an atmospherically heady introduction, with progressive style production building up to the duo’s signature hardstyle drops. A cinematic single, it narrates a story of cosmic proportions by inviting the listener to the future, one in which hardstyle reigns supreme.

In addition to these, those who purchase physical copies will be able to enjoy an exclusive bonus track — a reggae version of the titular track ‘Enter Your Mind’. Pre-orders will also feature autographs from the two, as they’ve signed each copy for avid fans and eager listeners.

Remixes are aplenty on the album as well, with it boasting reworks from some of the biggest names in the industry. KELTEK transforms the duo’s 2017 hit ‘Angels & Demons’, while Wildstylez does the same for ‘Fired Up’, released in the same year. PhutureNoize takes on remix duties for ‘PromisedLand’, and DJ Isaac re-imagines their 2013 single ‘Takin’ Off’. JDX remixes their 2018 track ‘Ghost Stories’, and Warface does the same with their masterpiece ‘We Don’t Stop (Lights Out)’ from the same year. Lastly, Sefa reworks the pair’s original 2008 opus ‘Kingdom’. A never-before-released Headhunterz remix of their 2018 ‘Twilight Zone’ tune is also featured on the album, and features a completely re-imagined version courtesy of the prolific Haarlem-based talent.

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.

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.
