Callie Reiff brings the party everywhere she goes, and her new Shadow Dancing EP is a perfect snapshot of this teenage NYC DJ/producer in motion: hybrid bass, uptempo breaks, and boundless energy. The title track bangs alongside “Jawbreaker,” an equally high-powered collab with KANDY, and three brand new “Shadow Dancing” remixes from Lil Texas, JSTJR and Havok Roth. Hit the lights and hit the floor!
Brooklyn producer Nick Hook teams up with ATL mystery man 24hrs for the slinky “Gucci’s,” taken from Nick’s Relationships album, out 11/1. True to the LP’s collaborative spirit, “Gucci’s” is unexpectedly catchy and greater than the sum of its parts; alien vocal processing meets trunk decimating bass, resulting in what may become the first improvised analog synth jam to make Magic City rotation.
Heavy heavy! Nathaniel Knows’ CLUBHOUSE collab with Shamon Cassette gets flipped by Ditta & Dumont, Styles&Complete and Subsurge for even more oomph. Grab them now at fgrecs.wpenginepowered.com/clubhouse.
As the dizzying music video for A-Trak and Tommy Trash’s “Lose My Mind” becomes a Vine and GIF phenomenon, the DJ duo strike back with four new spins on their loopy collab, courtesy of some of the coolest new talents in dance music. OWSLA queen Mija goes sampladelic, D.O.D blasts off with his “future jack” energy and Meaux Green and SAM F turn up and trap out, while French funky vibe-master Jean Tonique straps on his roller skates and adds original talkbox verses. Mental!
Brooklyn producer Infuze specializes in a melodic and musical approach to bass music. We’re psyched to follow up his “re-roll” of Flosstradamus & Baauer’s “Roll Up” with brand new original “Alive,” featuring the talented new singer, Brave.
Sluggers tease their upcoming Anthem EP on Fool’s Gold with the release of the title track, a delightfully dark techno workout offering a glimpse into the dark side of Miami club.
A-Trak and Tommy Trash face off (literally) in the animated new “Lose My Mind” video. The duo’s hypnotic, distorted disco jam gets an appropriately loopy clip courtesy of renowned curator @love.watts and animator FrankNitty3000, taking face-swapping to ridiculously absurd (and thoroughly GIF-able) new heights.

You can’t spell “party” without Tommy Trash. Our Australian brother (and hair care idol) gets alphabetical on new single “IOUE” with LA’s TAISUN. Extra-broken breakbeats, a haywire Speak & Spell, and some of the funkiest vocoder work in FG history combine for a synthed-out club jam like no other. Pump the volume and and stay tuned for more TT collaborations on Fool’s Gold very soon.
When it comes to the classy side of dance music, UK producers Felon are guilty as charged. After making waves with debut hit “Isla,” the trio shows their diversity on new EP, The Source, expertly stacking timeless soul vocals, jacking baselines and modern house bump as only true professionals can. Summery single “Bones” features the yearning melodies of Andre Espeut over tropical riffs and chunky horns, while the cascading drums of “Tusks” and rubbery, ultra-funky baseline of “Jerk” show off Felon’s deft touch with late-night vibes. Get chic to this.
