dear friends, in these cold times, we are so very please to introduce our new release something to believe in . this stellar electronic ep features two originals by broke one alongside remixes by our local superstar latence and the very trippy strip steve. ps : because of the amazing artwork on this release (thanks polux one), there is only a very very limited number of vinyl available!

brussels-based play label records step up for the second instalment of their la parenthèse house series. the four track ep will be dropping both digital and vinyl. on the a-side, interstate delivers some irresistibly groovy house vibes, followed by dancing your heartbeat, an even funkier track by folamour. the b-side is marked by a deeper and slightly more mellow atmosphere. through house resort by siler and flabaire, who have already been a part of the first la parenthèse house edition, one dives into a loungy warmth. the final track comes from san francisco born, berlin based producer yooj. he drops a multi-layered journey with a catching balance of emotional and percussion-driven energy.

with additional successes under such labels as taub, latence releases once again on play label records for his fresh superheated ep. collaborating ideas from his teen years in belgium through the 90’s, with more progressive inspirations, latence has materialized a unique style, which is a celebration of timeless dance music and it’s continued influences on forward-thinking artists. kicking things off with his title-track, pablo flaunts a subtle build of off beat chords injected around playful and erratic acid house influences. a busy and varied concoction of sounds topped with provocative whispers. deeper amplitude is the second of this four track ep, and as the name suggests, we are provided with ample bass, accompanied by snippets of melodic discord and a boisterous snare, fearless and rhythmic. metastable lays a minimalist percussive foundation, sporting a retro 70s synth that steals focus with its quirky pitch shifts, a classic example of latence’s immense talent for blending influences across eras. latence closes with acido basic, an eccentric finale to this eclectic ep. using exotic vocal sampling centered around chemical compounds, he simplifies his percussive layers to a clean texture, which form the bedrock for his experimentations.

after a first collaboration with play label records last fall for a remix on boss axis’ ep, dka joins the label-team for a four-track ep, pamplemousse bleu. oscillating between deep house and tech house, dka delivers three equally excellent original tracks. from the hypnotic “sum” until mysterious almost techno “landing at night”, he immerses the listeners in his universe and his world. the ep closes on the exon bacon’s remix that embarks us in a deep techno mood.

after two strong releases on electronical reeds, the brussels based artist exon bacon inaugurates play label records with his latest ep, watching dogs. play label records is the extension of the collective play label that has become a key player in the music scene of brussels with more than hundreds of events to its credit. this first release sets up the artistic direction of this label that seeks to develop a real dancefloor approach and a strong party spirit.
