With a finely tuned ear for rave-ready energy and soul-soothing melodies, Manchester duo Cortese continue a run of fine form.
Following standout releases on LNOE and Hotflush, they make their long-awaited debut on Constant Circles with the Parallels EP – an essential slice of forward thinking UKG.
Two original cuts lead the way, showcasing Cortese’s signature blend of nostalgic garage vibes and cutting-edge production.
These are closely followed by two standout remixes: label boss Just Her delivers a deep and driving rework, while Jozef K, known for his immersive sonic textures, delivers a haunting atmospheric twist, each bringing a new flavour to appease any dance floor.
Completing the package is original street art from Brighton’s legendary graffiti artist Unknown, raw and unfiltered, drawing on the parallel between art and music. Unceasing. Limitless. A constant circle.

Jo Kazan, a French DJ and producer now based in Barcelona, is the founder of RetroFuture events and Kazanova Club, as well as the Label Manager of Cabana Libre Records.
Jo’s sound masterfully blends our favorite elements: Italo, Trance, and Dark Disco.

CLOSE PROXIMITY brings a fresh perspective to Blazing Freedom, stepping away from the Italo sound to deliver a 90s-inspired progressive masterpiece.
With lush, atmospheric pad work and sharp, distant stabs, this track has all the makings of a serious dancefloor weapon!
What more can be said about the talented Italian artist Amarcord?
Everything he touches transforms into pure Italo gold. With his signature emotive basslines and beautiful melody and rhythms, this remix is yet another stunning reinterpretation of Jo’s original track, Blazing Freedom.
Louis has infused his remix of Nocturnal Rush with distinctive melodic euphoria, staying true to his signature style.
Once again, he has delivered an outstanding reinterpretation of Jo’s original.
This beautiful Italo trance track is already resonating as a dance floor favorite.

Since 2018, their sound has oscilla-
ted between techno & disco and combining retro with a modern twist.
The symbiosis between 80s
synths and modern goodfeel or driving basslines
has always fascinated them and so they combined
their skills.

DJ for over a decade. In 2021 they released their
first productions on the Hamburg label Verflixt

After crossing the Galaxy and leaving the orbiting colony of Sinewave IX behind, the ship’s crew receives a cryptic transmission.
A single signal, repeated endlessly: a grainy image of a cosmic face adorned with an enormous white mustache.
Interstellar databases do not register any such entity, but the elders of the Sound Academy speak of the White Mustache: an ancient vibrational intelligence, born from the collision of two pulsars and fueled by grooves forgotten in time.
Guided by the magnetic rhythm of low waves and broken beats, our explorers enter a forbidden quadrant, where every sound is distorted, every frequency a challenge. It is there that they discover the truth: the White Mustache is not just an entity. It is a state of mind. A transfiguration of rhythm in pure form.
A soundtrack for those who dare to lose themselves in the unknown.

Sincopat Remixed returns, as it does every year, with a fresh and exciting twist.
This time, the label has teamed up with LabelRadar to offer producers from around the world the opportunity to remix Tilt, the standout track from Sincopat’s Big Kahuna, AFFKT, along with Pixie by label front-runner James Harcourt.
Originally, the plan was to include only the winner’s remix on the release, but the impressive quality of the submissions made it impossible to choose just one.
In the end, we decided to award not one, but three winners: Nosssia and SLP for their version of Tilt, and Arqade for their reimagining of Pixies. In addition, two finalists for each track – Camilo Sanjuan, Escolta, Sinkix and Oysher – will have their remixes available exclusively on Bandcamp and streaming platforms.
These seven remixes are as diverse as they are distinctive, each brimming with personality.
We at Sincopat and LabelRadar are confident that these artists have a bright future ahead of them.
Don’t just take our word for it, listen to each of the remixes and check them out for yourself.
