The global House crowd has been yearning for a new original release from Tensnake for a while now, and today is the day they’re getting just that. A grand, sumptuous House cut that sees the electronic music tastemaker launch himself into the thick of the scene again, ‘Rules’ (feat. Chenai) is also his debut release on Armada Electronic Elements, under exclusive license from his own True Romance imprint.

A swirl of alluring chords, thick bass tones, and fresh vocals, ‘Rules’ is the first taste from a trove of new music that Tensnake made in Los Angeles and Hamburg these last few years. His first original release since 2017’s ‘Hello?’, this track will set the mood and provide the groove whilst heralding Tensnake‘s true return to form in the coming year.

Quote Tensnake: “For my first release in two years, I wanted to create a new classic Tensnake sound – a touch of ‘90s house, but with a modern twist. ‘Rules’ reminds me of some classic Chicago House tracks and the amazing vocals by Chenai lent it that instant feel-good sound. Chenai and I met at a gig in Barcelona a while ago and when I started working on ‘Rules’, I instantly had her in mind for the vocals. Then we hooked up in L.A. while she was touring with Gorgon City and we recorded the whole song in just a few hours. It is one of those songs that came together very quickly and naturally which is always a good sign.”

After getting his first taste of critical acclaim with his ‘In The End (I Want You To Cry)’ EP in 2009, Tensnake has been cementing his status as a game-changing dance music pioneer every step along the way. The Hamburg-born DJ, producer and label owner lent his remix skills to high-profile acts such as Aloe Blacc (‘I Need A Dollar’, 2010), Lana Del Rey (‘National Anthem’, 2012), London Grammar (‘Hey Now’, 2014) and Duke Dumont (‘I Got You’, 2014), and collaborated with Nile Rodgers, three-time Grammy-winner Stuart Price, Jamie Lidell, MNEK, Fiora and more for his debut album, ‘Glow’ (2014). A little over two months ago, Tensnake launched the debut album from his Gemini Rising project, ‘Best Case Life’, created with Fiora and Lester Mendez over their love for 1880’s synth-pop. Now putting the finishing touches on his next body of work, 2020 promises to be a big year for Tensnake.

Calibur, the Los Angeles based producer, returns with new single ‘Postman,’ catching the ears of house music enthusiast all over the world.

Calibur combines Nu Disco and Bass House, ‘Postman’ is a funky track that gets people’s grooves on right from the beginning.

Sampling Levity’s famous song, its vocals and lyrics are repetitive but catchy, and in combination with the polished production create a record that sets the tone on every dancefloor.

One element that stands out in ‘Postman’ is the bass, which is punchy and tingles your eardrum at every drop.

It is then followed by the breakdown, which maintains a good amount of energy in the record, with playful drum patterns that keep listeners on their feet.

Calibur’s idea to fuse Nu Disco and modern bass feels fresh and brings a colourful aspect to a gritty low-end energy bass house record.

The production is a total switch from the original dubstep track released by Levity, but one that deserves attention just as much.

‘Postman’ is Calibur’s first release of 2025 and marks the artist’s return after a hiatus of 2 years from publishing music.

Listen to ‘Postman’ by Calibur on YouTube and Soundcloud, now available worldwide.

London-based four-piece Le Bon Jams return with their highly anticipated debut EP, ‘109%’, due for release on Friday 20th June via [PIAS] Électronique.

Following a breakout year that saw praise from tastemakers like Arielle Free, Jess Iszatt (BBC Radio 1), Mark Knight, TSHA, and Don Diablo, Le Bon Jams turn up the heat with their debut EP ‘109%’. Bursting with disco-tinged house, uplifting pop hooks and an electric French-touch vibe, the four-track release blends nostalgic warmth with a modern edge and is a feel-good ride through the band’s most infectious work yet. 

Opening with lead single Hear My Love, the EP wastes no time setting the tone – a radiant, popleaning anthem with shimmering synths, punchy pianos and crisp grooves topped with irresistible vocal hooks. 

Speaking about the track, the band have shared: “It was the first track we collaborated on for Le Bon Jams, and in many ways, it still captures the heart of our vision as a band. We’re really proud of this one and hope listeners connect with it as much as we did while making it!”

Next up is What U Need, which solidifies the EP’s tone with Le Bon Jams’ signature uplifting energy and crisp, funk-flecked grooves. It’s a confident continuation that keeps the pulse high and the mood buoyant. Spotlight follows, injecting a bit more attitude into the mix. Gritty basslines and dynamic production showcase the band’s versatility, adding a punchier, club-ready edge to the EP without losing its feel-good foundation. 

Closing out the project is Can’t Stop – a euphoric, rhythm-led track that encapsulates the warm, retro-inspired aesthetic that defines Le Bon Jams’ sound. 

‘109%’ will be released Friday, 20th June via [PIAS] Électronique.

Café del Mar Launches First Artist Album With Legendary Electronic Duo Pig&Dan

Marking a bold new chapter in their enduring legacy, Café del Mar sets to release its first-ever artist-led album ‘Journey Within’ crafted by electronic heavyweights Pig&Dan. Released on June 13th, 2025, the album represents an exciting genre shift for both artist and label, fusing Pig&Dan’s signature techno-edged soundtrack with the icon, laid-back, immersive ethos of Café del Mar’s chillout heritage.

Globally recognised for defining the chillout and Balearic sound, Café del Mar is renowned for curating captivating sunset experiences and compilations, shaping decades of musical culture far beyond the Balearics where it was born. Now celebrating their 45th anniversary, the revered Ibiza brand embraces a forward-thinking persona, expanding on their formative roots. This new format sets to elevate their legacy through a collaborative vision, starting with Pig&Dan’s‘ Journey Within’. This milestone sets a precedent for artist-led projects under Café del Mar Music, pushing boundaries whilst still honouring its sunset heritage.

Café del Mar’s resident DJ & Music Curator, Ken Fan, echoes the release’s sentiment 

“Pig&Dan sent me this unsigned album last year, and after testing the tracks in my daily sets, the crowd’s reaction said it all. Every time I included them in a mix, people were asking what they were, and Shazaming with no results. It’s a brilliant start to our first artist release at Café del Mar, with more to come. Watch this space.”

For Pig&Dan, Journey Within marks an artistic evolution. Broadly known for their high-energy Techno sets on worldwide stages that include Tomorrowland and Awakenings, the creative duo pivots into a more reflective side of their identity with this compilation. The album roots itself into earthy dub textures, featuring warm psychedelia and downtempo soundscapes that create an expansive reimagining of chillout music, anchored with raw depth and emotion.

Pig&Dan share their insights and inspiration 

“We wanted to explore the deeper, more emotive side of our musical identity, stepping away from the club energy to create something that reaches a bit deeper. This album is a journey into our minds, reflecting the influences and organic sounds that have always been part of our creative DNA.” 

The album is both evolutionary and explorative in equal measure. With a well-curated mix of tracks and emotions, listeners will be drawn into a journey that amplifies the Ibiza vibe. The first track is a prime example, ‘Can’t Do It On My Own’ instantly sets the album’s soul-searching tone. Built upon rich, layered instrumentation, the track weaves emotive strings and atmospheric synths before breaking into an expressive vocal, elevating the track’s introspective feel. It’s a standout production that bridges Pig&Dan’s underground credibility with Café del Mar’s resilient and emotive storytelling.

This milestone release not only honours Café del Mar’s Balearic heritage, synonymous with chillout and Ibiza’s golden-hour spirit, but also signals a visionary future for the label. With stunning cover art by David Robles, Journey Within captures a deeply personal and forward-thinking sound, setting the tone for a new era of artist-led storytelling under Café del Mar Music.

Journey Within will be available June 13th, 2025, on all major streaming platforms.
