Stacey Pullen Puts His Rhythmic Persuasions on Display With ‘Feel It / Circus Act’ on Factory 93 Records!
Seasoned veteran Stacey Pullen leverages his rhythmic persuasions on his debut outing with Factory 93 Records, ‘Feel It / Circus Act,’ a seven-track package including a remix from the mighty Nic Fanciulli.
As a venerated torchbearer of second-wave Detroit techno, the Black Flag label-boss has been crafting sleek and soulful dance music since many of today’s clubbers were merely a twinkle in their parent’s eye. His ability to concoct pounding, infectious grooves is on full display with ‘Feel It / Circus Act,’ which finds him harkening back to ‘90s tradition of latching on a variety of mixes and VIPs onto a record.
“Feel It” is high tech soul at its finest. It’s built around squelchy bass, crunchy drums, and a soothing vocal that elegantly contrasts the track’s raw, roughed up tone. Stacey ramps up the energy on the Full Force Mix, employing a beefy bassline that will add finesse to both house and techno sets. Meanwhile, the Nice & Smoove mix provides a deeper, headier cut bolstering a hypnotic groove and textured sound design capable of enveloping listeners from all angles.
“‘Feel It’ is driven by the sensational vocal snippet of Mighty Real by Sylvester,” says Stacey Pullen. “The adlib vocal is fueled by a driven bassline and the bassline fuels the track with excitement and energy.”
“Circus Act” takes the framework of classic, loop-based house and furthers it with all of Stacey’s sonic trademarks. A relentless sample burrows itself deeper into your eardrums as it pounds along in half bar iterations, resulting in an effective and sophisticated roller perfect for building momentum on the floor. On remix duty is the legendary Nic Fanciulli, stacking Stacey’s insistent formula alongside an insatiable bassline. Fanciulli teases the track’s original elements as he leads into a dizzying climax of crispy 909 snares, before dropping back into the track’s muscular beat.
It doesn’t end there, folks. For good measure, there are two extra versions of “Circus Act” tossed into the rotation with the SP Retool Remix and ReRemix (yes, you read that right). These two reworks function as robust DJ tools that scatter the track’s original elements around seemingly endless layers of percussion. They are, again, strong rollers designed for peak hours and are sure to move more than a few feet in the club.
“‘Circus Act’ has a disco sample from one of my favorite Italo Disco records from the ‘80s and has always inspired me when I heard it,” explains Pullen.
Built around his extensive knowledge as a selector and his unmatched expertise in the studio, Stacey Pullen’s ‘Feel It / Circus Act’ is available everywhere via Factory 93 Records.
New EDM Friday May 15 brings new music from Martin Garrix, Ed Sheeran, David Guetta, Alesso, and more.
New EDM Friday May 15 brings together major collaborations, new EPs, album releases, and records made for clubs and festival sets, covering house, techno, bass, and crossover electronic music. From Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran to David Guetta and MARTEN HØRGER, HI-LO, James Hype, and Sub Zero Project, these are the tracks you should not miss on this week’s New EDM Friday.
Martin Garrix, Ed Sheeran – Repeat It
Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran finally release Repeat It, a collaboration that dates back to 2014 and became one of the most requested unreleased tracks in modern EDM. Martin Garrix first played the song during his Ultra Music Festival Miami 2015 set, where it circulated among fans for years under the title Rewind Repeat It. The track was later held back through label-related delays, while live rips and fan uploads kept it part of Martin Garrix and Ed Sheeran lore for more than a decade. Now released in a reworked form under the title Repeat It, the track closes a 12-year wait and gives this week’s New EDM Friday one of its biggest talking points.
Alesso, JOA – Turn Up The Bass
Alesso teams up with JOA on Turn Up The Bass, a new release on Body Hi, the house-focused label connected to Alesso’s recent run of club records. The track was teased ahead of release through Alesso’s own channels, where he posted that he and JOA had teamed up on the record before its Friday drop. Early clips also linked the track to Ultra Miami, where the ID had already started circulating before its official release. With Tyree Cooper also credited on the track, Turn Up The Bass brings Alesso back into a more direct house lane after years of moving between festival records, pop collaborations, and his newer Body Hi releases.
David Guetta, MARTEN HØRGER – Men Machine EP
David Guetta and MARTEN HØRGER launch their new joint project Men Machine with a five-track EP on Spinnin’ Records. The project was first introduced live at Coachella 2026, where MARTEN HØRGER joined David Guetta on the Quasar Stage to play new material from the EP. Before its release, David Guetta said the tracks had been tested across their Ibiza residency and at Coachella, giving the project a live history before the official drop. Following their 2023 collaboration The Freaks, Men Machine gives David Guetta and MARTEN HØRGER a dedicated project built around darker electro, techno, and synth-led club music.
Max White – Warrior
Max White releases Warrior, a track that follows the Miami-based DJ and producer’s recent run of tech house and bassline-led records. Public info around the release is limited, but Max White uploaded an extended demo version of Warrior to SoundCloud on May 7, giving the track an early preview before its wider New Music Friday push. His official artist bio and Resident Advisor profile describe his background as a former Formula 4 race car driver and connect his music to tech house, driving basslines, melodic synths, and club-focused production. With Warrior, Max White keeps that direction intact, placing the record in the same lane as the heavier house material he has been developing across his recent releases.
Kaleena Zanders – Anything Goes (Album)
Kaleena Zanders releases Anything Goes, her debut album, through Helix Records. The seven-track project includes The Light with Shift K3Y, Can You Imagine with Bipolar Sunshine, Who We Are with Hayley May, and Thinking of Yesterday with NO BILLS, alongside solo tracks such as Anything Goes, Call Out My Name, and Stronger Than Machines. Kaleena Zanders has spent years moving between vocalist, songwriter, DJ, and producer roles, with earlier dance music credits including SNBRN’s California and her 2024 GLORIFIED EP. With Anything Goes, Kaleena Zanders puts her own name at the center of a full-length release after a long run of singles, collaborations, and club records.
Axel Boy – Shangri-La (EP)
Axel Boy releases Shangri-La EP through Deadbeats, with the project led by three tracks: Pressure Dub, Beat Down, and Shangri-La. The EP was announced through Deadbeats with a May 15 release date, while Axel Boy also teased the project across his own channels ahead of release. The Bristol-based producer has kept his work close to dubstep, bass house, and darker club sounds across releases on labels including Circus Records, UKF, and Deadbeats. With Shangri-La EP, Axel Boy keeps that direction tight, pairing low-end bass pressure with a more direct dubstep structure across the project.
Levity – Neon Soul
Levity release Neon Soul, another track connected to their Escapism, Vol. 2 rollout. The Chicago electronic trio had already played the track during recent live sets, including Coachella 2026, where footage of Neon Soul started spreading before its official release. Levity also teased the song through their own channels ahead of Friday, framing it as one of the next records from the new project. Following earlier tracks such as Flip It, ONE FOR YOU, Postman, Heartbreak, and Pop Off, Neon Soul keeps Levity close to bass music while giving the release a more melodic hook than some of their heavier festival material.
Dansyn & Dox – Work It Out
Dansyn returns just in time for summer with his latest single alongside Dox, ‘Work It Out’, arriving via Sidepiece’s Lip Service. Built for both late night dancefloors and gym weight rooms, the track delivers a seductive blend of driving house rhythms, fun vocals, and a pumping bassline.

Emotional storytelling has always existed in dance music, but few artists are approaching it quite like this right now…
View this post on Instagram
On their debut album COMPASS, MC4D blends folk-inspired songwriting, acoustic instrumentals, and melodic sounds into a project that feels both nostalgic and completely their own. Across the album, the brother duo leans fully into the emotional, Americana-inspired sound they’ve quietly made their signature over the years — and the result feels immersive from start to finish.
For me, there are moments throughout COMPASS that tap into the same emotional space that Avicii’s music makes me feel — the kind of feeling that instantly pulls me back and reminds me why I fell in love with electronic music in the first place.
That feeling comes through most clearly on ‘Hey Son’, which feels like a subtle nod to ‘Hey Brother’ — made even more full-circle by Aloe Blacc’s feature on the track.
The emotional warmth carries throughout the rest of the album too. Tracks like “Still Got Time” and “Lay Your Head” continue leaning into the album’s folk-inspired songwriting and melodic atmosphere, while songs like “Afterlife” (my personal fav) bring some of the album’s biggest emotional highs without losing the grounded, personal feeling that makes the project work so well.
There’s also something incredibly visual about the way COMPASS sounds. A lot of these songs feel like late summer nights, mountain drives, festival sunsets, old memories, and the kind of moments you wish you could stay in a little longer.
More than anything, COMPASS feels like an album made by artists who fully understand their identity. Nothing here feels trend-chasing or manufactured for the sake of fitting into a specific moment in dance music. MC4D knows exactly what kind of emotion they want these songs to carry, and that confidence is what makes the album resonate so deeply from start to finish.
Between its folk-inspired storytelling, emotional warmth, and immersive atmosphere, MC4D has created a debut album that feels both timeless and completely their own. If you’re looking for something that reconnects you with the emotional side of dance music, COMPASS is absolutely worth the listen.
