The dreamy, tasteful and complex atmospheres of Pigsie (aka The Disclosure Project) are definitely special – an unique view on Deep House that finds the balance between relaxation and tension, delivering musical richness with a dub signature.

‘Sprucy’s Bonus’ is their last EP, where the lead track floats on dreamy pads and gets grounded by its classic, plucked bassline. The B-Side, ‘Level Up’, showcases Pigsie’s versatility with a darker, club-friendly Deep House weapon that takes us to late 90s NY instantly.

Big Pond – Shout Out & This Thing I Do (Jason Merle Remixes) (Purespace Recordings)

DJ Freestyle is in Australia, Joe Silva is in Canada, and the project they’ve been building across that stretch of ocean is called Big Pond. Their new six-track digital single, Shout Out / This Thing I Do (Jason Merle Remixes), released on Silva’s own Purespace Recordings, revisits two Big Pond tracks from 2011 with fresh remixes by Fresno-based producer Jason Merle—a connection that grew from DJ Freestyle’s mastering work on earlier Merle records.

“Shout Out (Jason Merle Remix)” opens on rolling bass and crunchy percussion, building round synth pads and vocal “ahh” hits into an insistent four-on-the-floor grid, with breakdowns that pull the room in before the kick returns. “This Thing I Do (Jason Merle Remix)” runs chunkier, a bouncing bass line carrying filtered synth chords with an ’80s tint and syncopated vocal hits cutting across the beat. Instrumental and bonus beat versions of both tracks round out the package.

Jason Merle came up through the San Francisco house scene in the late ’90s, stepped away for a decade to focus on family, and has been producing steadily on labels including Viva Recordings, Pluralistic Records, and Whiskey Pickle. DJ Freestyle built a substantial underground house catalog in Queensland, and in 2005, Mark Farina cited him as one of his three favorite producers in BPM magazine. Joe Silva has been releasing records for three decades, with catalog on Viva!, Guesthouse, and Moulton Music, alongside film scores and live sets at Mutek.

Fatback Band – Spanish Hustle (Spring Revisited)

Format: Digital

Joe Claussell returns to the Spring Revisited project, and he delivers another jazz-infused house music remix of a classic funk track by the iconic Fatback Band.

Spring Revisited has been inviting influential house music producers to reinterpret classic tracks from New York’s Spring Records. At its peak in the ’70s, Spring Records released seminal disco, soul, and funk tracks by people ranging from Millie Jackson to Isaac Hayes.

Growing up in New York, Joe Claussell felt the influence of Spring Records, as growing up, his family members often played the label’s releases, and those tracks helped spark his passion for music. Today, Joe Claussell is himself an influential artist, who since starting his career in the ’80s, has helped shape today’s house music scene.

Talking about the original track, Joe Claussell said: “I can vividly recall the very first time I heard Spanish Hustle blasting through my brother Jackie’s stereo system. Not long afterward, I experienced its energy again on the dance floor at a discotheque known as The Inferno, where it was masterfully delivered by the legendary René Hewitt. The record left an imprint on my spirit that never faded.”

Joe Claussell has played headline DJ shows all over the world, including world renowned events ranging from Italy’s Kappa FuturFestival to the Amsterdam’s Dekmantel Festival. He has also produced music for prestigious record labels such as Toy Tonics, Rebirth, and Crosstown Rebels, alongside many releases on his own imprint, Spiritual Life.

This release includes two remix versions by Joe Claussell of Fatback Band’s “Spanish Hustle,” which combines classic funk elements with Latino percussion and samba style trumpets.

First up is the ‘JC Sacred Rhythm Version’ which lifts the tempo and loops a section of the original’s percussion. Keeping the original’s trumpets, and soulful vocal phrases, he adds a DJ friendly kick drum, and shows off his improvisation skills with a vibrant synth line.

Next up, he strips back some of the drums and horns, and focuses on the bassline with the ‘JC Spanish Harlem Dub,’ which is a moody rework utilising some funk-infused organ chords.

IndySoul – What’s That Feeling? (Nylon Trax)

Some feelings can’t be explained. They can only be heard.

Nylon Trax proudly presents NT177 – What’s That Feeling, a beautifully crafted new release from IndySoul that reminds us of the emotional power great house music can hold.

Built around expressive vocals, elegant musicality, and a warm, immersive groove, What’s That Feeling explores those moments of connection that are difficult to describe but instantly recognizable. It’s a song that invites listeners to pause, reflect, and lose themselves in the music while never losing sight of the dancefloor.

The Original Mix establishes the emotional heart of the release with rich harmonies, understated production, and a vocal performance that feels both intimate and uplifting.

Adding fresh perspective, Achickwitbeatz-writer, producer, recording artist, vocalist, podcast host, and remixer-brings her signature musicality to the release with a remix that expands the groove while remaining true to the song’s emotional core.

Completing the release, Jaymz Nylon’s Afro Tech ReShape explores a deeper rhythmic landscape, blending hypnotic percussion and spacious textures into an immersive interpretation that reveals another dimension of the composition.

Rather than competing with one another, each version celebrates the strength of the songwriting, proving that a great song can inspire multiple journeys while remaining unmistakably itself.

Initially available exclusively through Bandcamp as a digital release and through ElasticStage as a limited 12-inch vinyl pressing, What’s That Feeling marks another chapter in Nylon Trax’s commitment to independent artists and music that rewards repeated listening.

August 7th 2026 (Beatport Exclusive)
August 21st 2026 (Worldwide)

Picking up where he left off just a few months ago, D.M.P returns to the fold to deliver the label’s 71st outing with the sublime Transmission EP, a two-track excursion that once again showcases his mastery of deep, timeless house music.

Leading the release is the title cut, ‘Transmission’, a mesmerizing journey into the depths of D.M.P’s sonic universe. Built around a rolling low-end groove and elegantly layered chords, the track unfolds with effortless sophistication, its infectious bounce carrying listeners through an expansive and beautifully crafted arrangement. Tender vocal motifs drift in and out of the mix like distant transmissions from above, while subtle bursts of atmosphere and wind sweep through the breakdown before the groove locks back into place for the final stretch.

On the flip, ‘Just Follow The List’ shifts the mood into warmer, more organic territory. Drawing inspiration from the classic deep house style of Terry Lee Brown Jr., D.M.P weaves vocal fragments through a hypnotic framework of dub-infused pads, rich keys and understated chords.
