A fellow Dirtybird alumni, the LA artist - who has also released on the likes of Desert Hearts, Crosstown Rebels, Percomaniacs, Club Bad, and Superfreq among many other respected labels - makes his debut on Pets with the remarkable show-stopper 'Vowels'. Straight in off the leftfield with a lolloping, quirky, bass-ravaged groove, 'Vowels' fully fixes our focus on the humanized vocal rhythmic shots that weave, bob, twist and writhe around the loose, swaggering drums and rump-shaking subs. Gradually building in momentum, there's an infectiousness here that doesn't quit until the final a, e, i, o and indeed u slurs and croaks out of the speakers. Consummately chunked and funked in full-flavour manic club reboot form by long-time label friend Renato Cohen, 'Vowels' will have us warming up our vocal chords for months to come. And it's backed by another fresh original from Lubelski. Once again moving with an addictive loose drum bounce, 'Sometimes Why' brings the EP to an exciting climax. Twisting our melons with its high voltage low end sizzles, trippy bleeps and a percussive hook, it's another fine example of Lubelski's maverick nature. A perfect fit for Pets with a nod to the West Coast connection he shares with the Polish label founders, this one nods in multiple directions, brings a lot of people, sounds, ideas and themes together. The EP will be accompanied by a US tour in celebration of the release, named for its wild and eclectic b-side 'Sometimes Why https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1661500736752-93LKXM0CVMPPZW26TAU2/2021-09+-+Matt+Klear+-+Navsegda+EP+.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Matt Klear - Navsegda [PETS159] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1659683016703-TR7RLFRKXGOL6633LDX7/a1000711320_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Shadow Child & Mark Archer - Morse Code [PETS158] Join the dots then dash it all to hell. Dynamic duo Shadow Child and Mark Archer link up once again for another rave romp 'Morse Code' and no amount of emergency messages are going to save our souls! An absolutely awesome collaboration, the force between Shadow Child and Altern-8 don and all-round rave pioneer Mark Archer has been strong for some time now. First appearing on Super Rhythm Trax together under their MASC guise in 2018 with almighty techno headbutt 'Non Stop', they returned two years later in early 2020 with equally fired-up 'Return Of The MASC' EP. Both EPs were celebrated and savoured at the levels you'd expect. Two years later and the pair return to our speakers this time on Catz 'n Dogz Pets imprint and they're armed with two more unruly late night tear-ups. 'Morse Code' hits with that classic detuned synth sound that smacks of a million Fantazias and is driven by a quirky, memorable spoken word sample. 'Toto' plays the consummate foil with a ridiculously bulbous and addictive bass riff that shines and slaps with the sound and energy of both artists. Collabs of this weight and span are often misguided and don't quite hit the spot. But Mark Archer and Shadow Child have the perfect fusion that celebrates the last 30+ years of this culture and have enough diesel in the tank for the next 30, too. Time to crack some codes! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1657263455162-QVT63ZCG1AIPOYZGL8OO/2022-04+-+The+Deepshakerz+-+Don_t+Call+It+Love.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - The Deepshakerz - Don't Call It Love https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1655443783012-LL2JCGGCESCZO6N879V2/2022-05+-+Space+Jump+-+The+Chemical.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Space Jump - Insert The Chemical https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1653627801904-6MAFF0YBZ5Z4SPZ1EI7V/okladka.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - My Favourite PETS, Vol. 10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1652423401134-R180AXUHMQVT83514ZKZ/a2406368729_16.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - MADVILLA - Come Together https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1650614856018-26NIRM2YMHOF073XUAHC/2022-03+-+Because+of+Art.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Because of Art - One Day https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1649406452780-CZ7DXZOU4BNDOG4U8R3E/a1913416349_16.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Space Jump - Make It https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1648197399830-1GFL773Q2Y7WJT9J6UBL/2022-01+-+Cat_z+n+Dogz+Megane_Remixes_TOMA.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz feat.

Ours right now is Vhyce. A man whose sounds you can always rely on to hoist you out of that dark place and remember all that's good and funky in the world. A long-standing operator on labels such as Future Disco and Boogie Angst, here we find the Belgian-based Portuguese-Italian making his debut on Pets with four blistering slabs of disco. A fine balance of groove, bass and cosmic nuances, we kick off with 'One Day We'll Float' where a bulbous party bassline springs from nowhere and instantly uplifts. It's backed by plenty more goodtime gold: 'The Heart Take Fright' nods wryly at Yazoo while chugging from here to the horizon, 'Personal Numbness' is a much more contemplative, introspective jam while 'Electric Dreams' lives up to its name with a Moroder-like prowl that quickly turns into a full-on chase. Fast lane music for people who understand the importance of slowing down and taking care of yourself. Take our advice, make Vhyce your vice today. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1610697866389-NX78C4ED0G0W57JCR075/a2550654378_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Nowheretobefound - Arrival [PETS130] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1661500826943-R2TFNCVZK2LHDL6IB25K/2020-05_Catzndogz%2BMoments-1.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1610697818793-XKXEI90HRCHKX11UTVCP/a3071247870_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - The Best Of Pets 2020 [PETS129] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1607675541423-IS47EVQTV60OSIEI9USV/a0126008109_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - 10 Years Of Pets Recordings part 2 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1607076524941-5G6C2LSX31XCDN0MGNLJ/2020-09---10-YEARS-OF-PETS-one.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - 10 Years Of Pets Recordings part 1 [PETS127] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1605257288880-QP0Z3WAVLS86MCOUWUCZ/a0747613013_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Truncate & Catz 'n Dogz - Never Stop [PETS126] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1603445451650-SXILNV80SWTCMAY60951/a1620878819_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz & Andrea Oliva - Night Flight Drama [PETS125] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1602232979983-VFOPEQLTPQNQOSPY9OF0/Catz+Eats+Dogz_offline+Mode.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz Eats Dogz, Catz 'n Dogz, Eats Everything [PETS123] https://petsrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/catz-eats-dogz-catz-n-dogz-eats-everything-pets123 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1600420492279-37DWEK2LHK0R7NZ58PBD/a1991395900_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Jeigo - We Are Not Nothing [PETS124] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1600420552580-YSBGCJZRX82QZGIM79GR/a0070321841_16.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - My Favourite PETS vol. 7 [PETSDIGI011] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1595575485791-ROYC95947F8Q64NET5RW/2020-05-20-Alex-Virgo-Favourite-Colour_cover.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Alex Virgo - Favourite Colour [PETS122] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1593166870707-VJXFVKKEL0JQK1ESRZOW/2020-05_Catzndogz+Moments-1.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - Moments [PETS121] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1590739235211-G9LO919NVC434FOZC4UN/PETS120+Beton+-+Dockside+ARTWORK+2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - PETS120 Beton - Dockside https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1588923267041-FXZS4CFER6LU1LKFKMI9/PETS+119+JOYCE+MUNIZ+COVER.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - PETS119 Joyce Muniz - Glass Mistress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1587121419418-JKZXL0QDMHJMMQ1S2DJ4/PETS118+Dalfie+COVER.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Dalfie - GO ON! [PETS118] GO ON: seldom do two simple two-letter words have so much impact when put together. Every connotation compounded: It’s encouraging, it’s spurring, it puts people first, it’s a call to action, it’s positive, it’s welcoming… It’s the title for Dalfie’s latest EP on Pets. A long-time friend of Catz ‘n Dogz and a regular on their label’s roster, once again the Scottish producer delivers some serious club goods. Two tracks for the two-word, two-letter high impact message, both of them cut straight to the chase. ‘FJ’ is all about that bounce. Springy, dark and full of heavy energy, we have no idea was ‘FJ’ stands for but we’re going to assume it’s Freaking Juicy as this bassline is something else. Coupled with gradually built up breakbeat momentum, this doesn’t so much as slap but completely knocks your head off. ‘R Rated’ continues the late-night naughtiness. Rolling with a touch of mid 90s house energy, a writhing bassline and liberal use of classic rave stabs; just like Dalfie’s previous Pets bombs it’s another precision club demolisher. Already tried and tested by Catz ‘n Dogz and Dalfie himself, these are now yours for the taking.

Joseph Ashworth - Sienna EP Last spotted on Pets with his ‘Collapsed’ EP just over a year ago, London’s Joseph Ashworth continues to furrow his own unique, deep, soul-laden path. Having treated Needwant, Anjunadeep and Made Of Concrete to his touching, molten dynamics since his previous Pets outing, he has returned to Catz N Dogz' label HQ with another selection of soul-stirring late night grooves. ‘Sienna’ stirs more than just the soul; a classically-trained house cut, it will move you physically and emotionally as it oozes feeling with every chord flurry and delicate layer of instrumentation, rising and rising with a poignant uplift. Think AME, think Chandler, think Schwarz… Think truly timeless emotional dancefloor music. ‘Vitamins’ is equally alluring and smouldering as it takes an unhurried slow-burn build, easing in a raw, grainy and ultimately feel good piano hook that’s London, Berlin and New York in precision measures. Filtered, chugging, unrelenting; once again it’s a powerful hit of feel-good with all the hallmarks of longevity. Pets invited fellow countryman Earth Trax to remix ‘Sienna’. Considering sienna is an earth pigment, it’s a clever connection before you even get to his tripped out deconstruction, where horns are melted into wavy textures and the organs sound like keys from outer space. Finally Joseph ties it all together with a more restrained twist on ‘Vitamins’ where the piano hook steps back to allow the subtle, hip-slinking percussive elements to take the lead. Four tracks, each one tailored for a different chapter of the night, but all precision timed for the warmer months ahead… Singular, soulful and genuinely special. Joseph and Pets have done it again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1489148968805-IADMZZ7YMP6ZBMQSLPP7/PETS077_cover_digi.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Larry De Kat - I Know You Can Hear Me EP [PETS077] Five years deep into the game, all nine lives fully intact: Utrechtian feral feline Larry De Kat prowls his way onto Pets… And we really don’t need to tell you how purrrrfectly apt this debut union is. Fresh from launching his own Katnip imprint (and putting the final touches on a hush-hush disco edit series), Pets have managed to prise four of his finest, broadest creations from his creative claws. Each one floor-bound, each one backing up the hype he’s enjoyed from the likes of Axel Boman, Mark E and Laurent Garnier, each one making us feel like cats who got the creamiest of creams… ‘I Know You Can Hear Me’ takes the lead on a more direct tip that you might expect from De Kat. Big pumps wrapped in a fine vibe balance of Detroit and Parisian house textures, but done with Larry’s signature dubby, jacking style, it’s the perfect paws-sitive statement of intent. Slinking deeper into the EP, ‘Naakte Groove’ lives up to its nude name with a lean-but-warm bass riff that purrs with finesse around a straight-up strutting drum arrangement. So much fun in such a tight, detailed groove, you’ll want this on loop forever. ‘Amlou’ stalks up behind with dusty, thumping charm. Rolling and scratching like it was 20 years younger, there’s an innate physicality in the drums that snaps you out when the big disco hook rides in from nowhere. Finally we hit ‘She Doesn’t’. The dubbiest groove of the set, all eyes are on that bulbous sub, rippling synths and precision tuned snare shot. Hypnotic, heavy, unhurried and heads down… These sounds are fur real. Like all the best stray cats, expect Larry to return to Pets as and when he pleases. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1486731383775-LJTWGR4QLP5UR7YN2HLE/PETS076_cover.png PETS Recordings Releases - Darius Vaikas - Oasis EP [PETS076] Please welcome Darius Vaikas. Lithuania-born, Denmark-based, consistently soulful: Over the last five years Darius has developed a spotless reputation with releases on the likes of Best Kept Secret, Project Mooncircle, EleFlight, Get Physical and more. Now he leaves his mark on our souls at Pets with four beautifully constructed pieces of soulful techno and electronica. ‘Brother’ sets the scene... An airy narrative coded with deep synthetic hope, it’s a graceful way to open this immaculate, soul-arresting and detailed label debut. ‘The Bells’ follows with a charming mysticism that’s conjured through both the calming chimes and the hopeful chord structure that hums unhurriedly. A cadence created through the juxtaposition of grainy and sparkling elements, there’s a warmth and familiarity that’s not dissimilar to Iz & Diz’s cult classic ‘Mouth’. ‘Oasis’ A measured sojourn into dusky pastures where a sparkling chime and stately kicks provide the guiding star and the melodic elements wrap around it with yearning subtle psychedelia. Darius bigs us adieu with ‘Save Me’, easing us into its slipstream with breezy pads and atmospheres that at first appear innocuous but gradually take on a life of their own as more human textures are added. Building into a breathless state of weightlessness, instant gravity is triggered as the groove re-ignites midway. See you again soon… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1485950791195-LX1LMH8MTRSO5URPBYG3/b2016.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Pets Recordings The Best of 2016 Pets Recordings The Best of 2016 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1485950763790-EPZFH563Y95T445PVIJ6/p75.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Roberto Clementi - Avesys EP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481586316589-2FX1O4FRXL30SSBHQUQI/PETS074_simongarcia_cover.png PETS Recordings Releases - Simon Garcia - Trimmer EP [PETS074] He’s back in the kitchen… After a summer of endless touring Madrid-based Garcia has returned to his flavour lab to cook up a whole new wealth of grooves and the future is looking tasty. Last spotted on Pets in 2013 - and since serving up styles on some of the most respected labels in techno – Pokerflat, Freerange, Darkroom, Perspectiv and Supplement Facts - Garcia provides two quintessential winter warmers. ‘I Never Knew’ chugs with a full bodied dynamic that’s nicely reminiscent of Yoshitoshi 15-20 years ago as molten machines create a funk that wraps itself around the short-but-perfectly formed humanised sample. “Trimmer” lives up to its name with his signature Hypnotic Vibes less-is-more flow. A precision-chiselled groove that spirals deeper and deeper into itself, it comprises nothing but a bubblesome bass lick, sturdy kicks, subtle FX and an undulating synth line that ripples almost majestically. A serious DJ tool for those who like their understated blends to suddenly catch you by surprise, this is the epitome of restrained. Speaking of surprise, just on Mr Tophat’s remix of ‘I Never Knew’. Closing the show with a true switch-flipper, the second you think you have the remix and its slinky Brett Johnson/Classis Music style groove locked down BOOM… In come those organs and a whole heap more. Nine minutes of heaven – you won’t be trimming this one down in a hurry. You won’t be trimming any of them. Enjoy… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481198096701-E6TAVBVD7E5N3IRN71OT/PETS073_cover_catzndogz.png PETS Recordings Releases - edit navigation bar Catz 'n Dogz - It's Happening / Our Crazy EP [PETS073] 2016 has unquestionably been another remarkable year for Polish outfit Catz ‘N Dogz. With their ‘Basic Colour Theory: Remixed’ album receiving an array of support from the industry’s leading names, the ‘Upsi Bubsi’ EP which followed in May showcased a different style of their musical prowess. Never showing any signs of stalling when it comes to their music output, Catz ‘N Dogz proudly announce their latest EP titled ‘It’s Happening/Our Crazy’ set for release this November. With the EP drawing influence from varying styles, the opening track ‘It’s Happening’ fuses together elements of house and disco creating an assured dance floor ready production. Bound together by an infectious bassline and catchy vocal sample, ‘It’s Happening’ has regularly featured in Catz ‘N Dogz sets over the summer becoming a favorite in clubs and festivals across the globe. “It’s a very personal record. We were grooving in the studio for several days until we got perfect mixture of disco and house to capture all that inspires us when we DJ” Providing a more hypnotic and raw offering than its counterpart, ‘Our Crazy’ once again demonstrates Catz ‘N Dogz unparalleled ability to conjure productions from opposite ends of the musical spectrum. The metronomic synth tone that flutters throughout is perfectly complimented by a driving 4/4 kickdrum creating yet another resounding track in Catz ‘N Dogz catalogue. “We wanted to keep the arrangement very raw, natural and keep a very hypnotic progression that works in the club pretty well.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154980100-3ONVDE40JBJMGLE9JNIB/PETS072+COVER+2000x2000.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - edit navigation bar Thorsteinssøn - Academy Of Heroes [PETS072] Meet Thorsteinssøn. The Iceland-born-Denmark-bred Gunnar Thor Viggosson better known as one half of 76-79 with Tommy Vicari Jnr and bossman at Comfortable Records and Vanity. Right now, though, we’re calling him the man behind the first Pets artist album this year… Deliciously cosmic and cheerily schizophrenic, ‘Academy Of Heroes’ is inspired by a brilliant creative project Thorsteinssøn practiced during his years living in Amsterdam: Solar Industry Radio. A project that would begin with a made up artist or band name in styles ranging from cosmic funk,scandinavien disco to noise collages of the galaxies. A joyously backwards project that inspired a rich rainbow of styles, the content was then represented 24/7 online, collaged with strange jingles and sifi snippets. Genius. Returning to those creations, Thorsteinssøn and Pets have weaved together a full album that cherry picks from his thunderous proliferation: from the strutting west coast deep house of ‘1976’ to the introverted electro boogie of ‘N M T F R’ by way of the poignant chords of ‘Untitled Disco Six’, the wry acid wriggles of ‘Channel DISQ’ and the Trans Am twinkles of ‘Beneath A Steel Sky’, the 14 collection acts as an immersive, timeless collage. A smorgasbord of synthetic exploration, rich in sci-fi, space and robotic sympathy, pieced together with the same spirit of his cult radio transmissions, it works just as well on the cans as it does in the dance… And it’s en route with an equally alluring package of remixes. An album, a radio show for freaks or simply a journey into Thorsteinssøns world.. Whatever… He really is a creative maverick. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154979765-H80XQOPAOD4D81Q16FEH/PETS071+COVER+2000x2000.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Thorsteinssøn - Academy Of Heroes Remixes [PETS071] With the highly anticipated release of Thorsteinssøn’s 'Academy of Heroes’ album on the horizon, Pets Recordings have decided the flip the switch early and precede the long-player with a fantastic trio of remixes. Academy of Heroes is described as ‘deliciously cosmic and cheerily schizophrenic’ and looking to break down and reconstruct some of this glorious frenzy are three exciting producers, each of which have chosen a track from the album to remix. First up is London based Pets pal Ashworth, who returns to the label for the first time since December's ‘Collapsed’ ep. ’Sixtrack Blues’ is the track of choice with Ashworth harnessing the originals dreamy vibe and adding a punchy guitar driven groove. Talking of ‘punch’, Gerd steps up, under his Geeeman guise, on a rework of ’Sammy’. Taking the original’s liquidy and acidic melody the Dutchman straightens and replays, replacing the original’s loose drums with a raw, kick-ass rhythm of his own to turn Sammy into a warehouse weapon. Fresh from their Boiler Room debut, Berlin live act Cab Drivers select the bulbous cosmic disco of ‘Midnight At Taffey’s’ to re-sculpt. A driving drum pattern turns the original slo-mo groover into a stellar swinging workout. A superb selection of remixes, each far removed from Thorsteinssøn’s originals. Making the anticipation for the Academy Of Heroes that much greater.

In-keeping with the releases that have since come our way on KX and Upon You, once again both ‘Strout’ and ‘Roundhouse’ genuinely sound like nothing else being made right now. Both unashamedly distinctive, both refusing to kowtow to current or past trends. We guarantee you won’t hear anything like these elsewhere. ‘Strout’ gets the motor running with a fuzzy lo-fi bass groove and spacious rhythmic elements allowing just enough space for a lilting arpeggio to cut through and build the tension. Fresh percussion is softly introduced as the unkempt bass undulates and a steady feedback line warps and wrangles the mind. Nodding introspectively like a Death In Vegas track covered by Tiefschwarz, new dimensions await those who lock in for the duration. ‘Roundhouse’ continues the full immersion experience and kicks as hard as you’d hope it to; whomping, stamping, strings-a-twanging, kicks-a-banging, it’s a straight-up party track wrapped in psychedelic whooshes that fly out from the centre directly into the leftfield. Fun, poky and memorable… Make no mistakes, Kaspar will be ghosting the Pets halls once again very, very soon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154959738-A7U5FY79ZMDIUTO1CC7Z/PETS069+COVER+2000x2000-1.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - V​/​A Home Is Where The Pool Is 2 [PETS069] Splashdown: Pets are here to squeeze every drop from your summer with a sweet four-track collection that’s precision primed for any poolside soiree you might indulge in this season. Grab a towel, a little juice and your nearest dearests for a series of slinky, sleazy, sunny-side sounds. Eats Everything gets the shindig in swing with the ‘Chitter Chatter’, a sought-after dub version that’s been a staple of his sets for a while now. Humming with fuzzy weight and a head-turning detuned key riff on the fills, it sets the shuffle for the deeper, left-side tech funk grooves to follow. Walker & Royce paddle back to 1997 with a slick fix-up of Chicago don Gemini’s ‘On This Planet’. Maintaining the alien-landing eeriness, existential narrative and loafing bassline, the Brooklyn duo bring it up to date with a soft-but- stern jack that really pops on the second drop and brings their dubby signature to life. Stefano Ritteri takes us for a deeper dive into the pool with a stunning cosmic composition that’s drenched in emotion. Classic Border Community feels that turn everything into a slo-mo sunset, Stefano’s ability to nice things up has impressed since his label debut in 2013. Finally old Hercules & Love Affair comrades Kim Ann Foxman and Shaun J Wright reunite with the ultimate transition from pool to party; a timeless late night New York house groove builds with a ripplingly crisp synth hook, star gazing textures and sleepy, dreamy harmonies. Soaked with originality, wet with rich grooves; whether your crowd are lounging or lively this summer, this will satiate. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154951643-AJN4WYAFGOPUS5KY0HJK/PETS068+COVER+2000x2000.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Mathias Kaden - Polyphonic EP [PETS068] Pets are proud to welcome long-time friend Mathias Kaden whose making his label debut with two of the trippiest, sense-shaking, freakiest jams we think he’s ever conjured. As teased in his recent Boiler Room show (and most sets he’s played lately), both ‘Polyphonic’ and ‘NoKick’ offer a fresh-yet-heritage-rooted take on techno and have been tailored to cut through on the biggest of festival and carnival rigs. Perfect timing, then. Let’s tuck in: ‘Polyphonic’ sits somewhere between Paperclip People and Basement Jaxx. Its sterling acid house hook lays down the foundations while a dizzying array of FX and sonic chemtrails swoop, bend and flare above the groove like fireworks. A proper sonic rocket display of a track that defies conventional arrangement, make no mistakes: this blows minds. ‘NoKick’ continues this theme with even more derring-do. As the name suggests, there’s no kick drum at play here, just a swinging break with a classic 2 Bad Mice style old school bassline and even more laser-blazing FX trickery that rifles the spectrum with head-turning, twisted dexterity. Complete with crowd cheers and carnivalian whoops and hollers, this is the ultimate DJ tool that winds the crowds up like nobody’s business. Better late than never: After years of releasing on some of the biggest and most respected labels in techno, Mathias’s appearance on Pets has been long overdue. But rest assured; these tracks really are a seriously special occasion. Only a fool would sleep on these… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154931726-HA6OCJM1PMBYK0YHICZS/PETS067+COVER+2000x2000.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Sierra Sam - Piano / Residue EP [PETS067] It’s been a long time coming… Sierra Sam and Catz N Dogz have been moving in the same tech circles for years. Both inspired by the unexpected and famed for their left-sided approach, it was only a matter of time before the Belgian made his mark on Pets. And boy has he made his mark. Two marks, in fact… One the shape of piano, the other a shape of a Roland 909. This is how he made them: ‘Piano’ hits hard with vampish minor key insistency. Imagine if the Jaws theme was penned by Paul Johnson and remixed by Joey Beltram and you’ve got the idea. Ominous, infectious, hooky and so devilishly simplistic, it’s all pinned together by slab-like kicks that chug relentlessly without a care in the world. ‘The Residue’ flips the switch to show Sam’s darker techno sensibilities. Detroitian by design, European by delivery, what begins as a gradual, drum-focused development with incremental percussive additions suddenly drops into bone-chilling early 90s chords that wouldn’t have gone amiss on Orbital’s ‘Green’ or ‘Brown’ albums. Both cuts entrenched in dancefloor history. Both cuts crafted with today’s superlative production techniques. Both cuts leaving massive marks on Pets’ consistently essential output. Jump on these before everyone else does… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154919772-5NYSGZWVAR1SOUB0T7D4/PETS066+2000x2000.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - Upsi Bubsi / Elixir [PETS066] Following on from the successful release of ‘Basic Colour Theory: Remixed’ in March, Catz n’ Dogz announce their latest EP ‘Upsi Bubsi'. The duo's first release of 2016 welcomes the New Year in true Catz n Dogz fashion with two tracks EP is a fruitful twist of cosmic melodies mixed under the duo's trademark heavy tech-house styled bass and percussion. The EPs’ opening and title track ‘Upsi Bubsi' is a certified floor filler from the get go. The track opens with a thunderous mix of 909 loops alongside a repeated throb of intense arpeggiated bass. The track is peppered with splurges of crashing cymbals, rolling toms and the hypnotic looped vocal whispering ‘don't stop'; a track clearly engineered for the dance floor. As the track builds, we are greeted with Egyptian styled keys, an unusual choice of sounds for most indeed, but a skill that we have become accustomed to in many of the duo’s productions. ‘Elixir' offers a different experience to its counterpart with a collage of rising melodic chords and an 808 break beat. The track is a beautiful arrangement of graceful choir sounding melodies over warm sub-bass chords, seemingly inspired by early 90's Detroit. The track takes full form introducing tribal drum patterns alongside splashes of keys and styled cosmic percussion. The track is a testament to the producer’s creative prowess, showcasing their broad abilities to tackle all styles and genres of dance music. This release undoubtedly highlights Catz N’ Dogz’ arsenal of talent in creating two very unique but equally as strong productions. Both possess the quality and pedigree of the duo's back catalogue and are set to command the globe’s top dance floors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481214940850-OLJ4IY9657CMBLX2UXQJ/My+Favourite+PETS+vol.+1+2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - My Favourite PETS vol. 1 My Favourite PETS vol. 1 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154912227-VZJRFGJDVOF8ATTWQ9IL/PETS065-2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Trikk - Front EP [PETS065] Pets welcome the return of old friend Trikk. The Portuguese-born, London-based producer has been tight with the Catz N Dogz camp since his label debut in 2012; remixing Rachel Row’s massive Defected-licenced ‘Follow The Step’ Since then he’s proceeded to pepper the label with his slinky, barbed tech by way of high profile remixes (Pete Tong, Paul Rodgers & Tom Flynn), album appearances (‘Friends Will Carry You Home Too’ and ‘Friends Will Carry You Home III’) and, last year, his broadly supported label EP debut ‘Firma’. Now, building on this solid foundation, Trikk returns with two of his most striking tracks to date... ‘Subito’ opens with classic ice-blast charm with sharp synth hits and lean drum arrangement set the scene. A snake-like bassline slithers around the rhythm, refusing to sit still while drama is heightened by sudden moments of absolute silence and precipitous cymbal brushes. Pensive, dynamic and perfectly restrained; this is an ideal mood changer or slate cleaner in any dancefloor scenario. For a darker shade of Trikk head for ‘Functional’, a track that belies its title. A track that merely functions will just make you dance... This will make you dance and lose your mind. Its juddering bassline mutating from palpitating heartbeat to twisted acid in tandem with the rolling drums, no one is safe from stern staccato message. This one is dangerous. Dark, stark, slinky, funky: Trikk’s unique sound is a perfect fit for Pets. We’ve no doubt he’ll be returning to the label again very soon... https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154946134-3JYP7OSDNPVAML34JN5N/PETS064X_2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - Basic Colour Theory Remixed [PETS064] Fresh from Catz ’N Dogz own recent remixes of Disclosure, Roisin Murphy and Rufus comes their own remix album of the critically acclaimed “Basic Colour Theory” album the Polish DJs, producers and Pets Recordings’ label owners have now invited a prolific array of artists to remix a selection of the LP’s signature tracks. This collection will be released digitally as well as on vinyl on 11 th March 2016 The 2015 original LP combined traditional songwriting meets Catz ‘N Dogz trademark infectious basslines; a natural result of extensive sonic exploration and the osmotic process of years of DJing worldwide, all the while developing a deeper understanding of what they want to deliver through their music. From more simple edit work, to entire tonal shifts, the pair’s songwriting has been reassembled by an eclectic, star-studded cast of beatmakers that include Jamie Jones, Claude Von Stroke, Karizma, Fred Everything, Anja Schneider and Eats Everything to Maurice Fulton, Jay Shepheard and Matthew Herbert whom as well as contributions from Psychemagik, Skudge, Ptaki, and Yotam Avni all skillfully apply curious fusions of their own unique musical roots. This is a remixer's remix compilation that succeeds in connecting the tracks musical dots into a singular musical vision. Rethought and reimagined, melodies and vocals are respectfully trimmed away In favour of new found rhythms., The remix clearly thought of as an extended method of quotation, citation and commentary with each new sound enforcing the consistency and dependability of Catz ‘N Dogz original production Highlights “Good Touch”, “Get It Right” and “The Joy” becoming equally bulkier in vibe, more expansive, yet often less capacious in detail. Each remix a smart move that lets the originals greatness speak for itself. Across the weighty 16 tracks of warm grooves and up-tempo cuts, each remix demands attention; blissfully capturing the original's fun-based lovingness and while often delivering unlikely juxtapositions carefully avoids any artistic tangle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481217543625-ESB15BY3MRC5W0RIGGW8/a0533464835_10.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Dalfie - Purple Hub EP [PETS063] New year, new talent: Pets barge into 2016 with a proper Glaswegian kiss... Introducing Dalfie; a Scottish newcomer who’s no stranger to late night beats thanks to his club-loving father sneaking him into venues in his early teens. Smitten and bitten from the off, he’s spent the last 10 years DJing around his native Glasgow and studying the dark art of stripped back tech dynamics. Craft honed, vibe owned: Dalfie’s ready to ignite his career in earnest... And it begins right here on Pets. ‘Purple Hub’ was inspired by one of the UK’s most legendary and longstanding venues: Sub Club. Triggered one night in the sweaty snug of the club’s consistently packed dancefloor, Dalfie’s driving groove is peppered with an unrelenting hand drum, palpitating heartbeat bass and just the right amount of star-gazing synths. File under timeless: each element is ageless. ‘Marching Powder’ reveals Dalfie’s darker delectation. A sinister sitar line twangs back and forth as a dense web of percussion is weaved before our very ears. A persistent vocal sample provides our marching orders while a bassline bubbles beneath with the right amount of warm, groove-minded counterplay. In case introducing an exciting new name to the game wasn’t quite enough, Pets have also bagged an impeccable remix of ‘Marching Powder’ from Dorisburg. Splicing and dicing the vocal sample to wrap around industrial strength breakbeats, there’s a molten sense of mechanical funk coded through every fractious element. Complete with a flabby Chicken Lips-style bassline, the timelessness of Dalfie’s productions are echoed throughout. Artist debuts don’t often come as broad and confident as this. We’re hyped for what Dalfie delivers next. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154892972-MMA0YTEWBFSPQ6632SOM/PETS062_cover.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Eats Everything - Big Discs EP [PETS062] Bristol-based bon viveur Eats Everything rounds off another incredible year with a return to Catz ‘n Dogz perennial PETS imprint with two straight-up slabs of undiluted house music. Fresh from refrying Tiga & Audion into one of the summer’s most important house hymns with ‘Dancing (Again)’ and remixing the chips out of Popof and Rudimental, Eats serves up two rugged jams that guarantee heart-cockle warmth throughout the colder months. Eats parades a hell of a porky platter in the title track Big Discs. A heady concoction of nods to the naughties and sounds of the seventies. A stunning strummer with a steadfast stomp and hollering howls that more than lives up to its name. Big Discs indeed. Way Past Bedtime is a lean mean 4am heads-down special; it’s a message we can all relate to. A homage to insomnia and late night activities, Eats has fine-tuned the perfect balance of trippy sound design and rolling hypnosis with his trademark sense of groove timelessness. Still hungry for more? Eats Everything is currently converting the madness of his Edible parties into the form of an Edible record label and promises to be back quicker than you can say ‘all you can eat buffet’. We’ll keep you posted… https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154889411-O3JF0KY8WW6KYFCBTCLK/PETS061+2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Ashworth - Collapsed EP [PETS061] Signing out his biggest year in style, Ashworth follows a wealth of outstanding 2015 material (including his debut album ‘Grain’ and key releases on Posterboy, Anjunadeep and Needwant) with this incredible Pets debut: ‘Collapsed’ Stately, gradual and warm enough to thaw any soul this winter, ‘Collapsed’ belies its title with a groove that builds and builds and neatly counters hurricane pads with rich bulbous bass to timeless effect. Deeper into the EP we laugh in the face of the winter weather and don our skimpiest bathing gear for the jiggling, tightly trimmed, physical sensation of ‘Speedo’. We cash in our chips and empty our pocket fluff with wily abandon to the dark infectious tech insistency and measured riff momentum of ‘Money’ and dance so hard to the thundering Detroit-inspired relentlessness of ‘Thirst’ we’ll need hydration for weeks to come. A deep tech document designed for all sides of the night: Each cut tailored squarely for the heart of the dance, each cut yet another reason that the film scorer known formally as Joe Ashworth is one of the UK’s most exciting house/tech prospect right now. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154901436-T9NP6Z3GW0JKLZV4RVJD/PETS060_artwork_2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Jonathan Kaspar - Cross Pendant EP [PETS060] Pets Recordings present a stunning two tracker from the lauded and fast rising Jonathan Kaspar. Bringing his off the cuff approach to studio-jamming, his music has pricked the ears of label bosses Catz ‘n Dogz with this slice of leftfield techno, Cross Pendant. “Cross Pendant was all created in one flow, made in some night shifts to be in the right mood for it” says the the young German producer. The single has been crafted with bags of midnight tendencies, laced together in the midst of a feeling for maximum dance floor-ready impact. The original comes to life with a looped guitar sample, while break down drum-rolls, percussive marches and lurking bass slowly take a stranglehold, while sub bass creates rhythm as it pulses in and out of the speakers, gradually adding more layers of percussive groove and manipulated and spliced strings. Crosstown newbies, Red Axes, strip away the dynamic groove and tightly knit the percussion and beats together, dropping the subtle sub bass for a penetrative, square wave number, before acid drop kick drums and throbbing FX create a darker version of this club leaning tech house treat. Pets Recordings have done it again, capturing the energy and integrity of true electronic jams for this bristling and vigorous cut. In the words of Mr Kaspar himself, "...I think when you hear the track, you can feel that there is no compromise; I made it without any hesitation, in one flow". https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154875525-AM7UT8LUTNJ62L9XLEPL/PETS059+cover+digital.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Adam Port & Jennifer Touch - This Time EP [PETS059] Pets Recordings hit their 59th release, handing the reigns to rising star Adam Port who presents a fresh update on '80s synthtronica, mixed with a smattering of gradual peak-time, bottom-heavy house structure. 'This Time' is the product of a new and fruitful relationship between Adam and vocalist Jennifer Touch, who grabbed Port's attention with her stand out vocals on the Nightstalker EP on Riotvan. The pair connected and began meeting for off the cuff, un-planned sessions at the Keinemusik studio in Stattbad, with Port bringing his knowledge of the dance-floor, Touch her 80’s'esque new wave sound and influences. "It's a very good flow with her” says Adam. “We're speaking the same music language even when we have a different background". Pets bosses Catz ’n Dogz immediately asked to sign the track after hearing Adam play it out. Full of dark, new wave pop sensibilities and edgy, dance-floor nuance, the original's slow and meandering electronic drum rhythm – permeated by crisp, mechanical snares, cymbal flashes and a guitar-picked loop with deep bassline and chanting background vocal melodies - make way for Jennifer's haunting vocal delivery while melancholy synths drape the track during it's choral bridge. Adam then progressively notches up in tempo as marching beats help to drive the track towards the dance-floor. Sei A delivers a punchy, bassy remix - driven by a thick and pounding kick drum at it's core - while radiating, pulsing synth bass slowly melt into range, before a high tempo organ riff heralds a darker, techno leaning excursion into full force peak-time territory before brutalist saw wave bass lines bring the warehouse vibes on the drop. Finally, Port finishes off the release with his own alternate version, focusing on percussion and a deep, ethereal sub bassline and Jennifer's vocals, chopped, spliced and staggered, while the basslines and melodies create subtle shifts in this hypnotic, repetitive techno workout. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154878472-ZAV83OE40P7M9XVVX4X6/PETS058_artwork_2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - Basic Colour Theory [PETS058] The Polish DJs, producers and Pets Recordings’ label owners known for their electrifying performances and catchy cuts announce their third LP, ‘Basic Colour Theory’, a fruitful collection of evocative melodies and gorgeous vocals. This album marks a pivotal moment in their career as house outfit Catz ‘N Dogz.Taking firm lead of the Eastern European electronic music revolution, the pair, who have previously graced the cover of both Mixmag and DJ Mag Spain, have for some time been poised for significant success as their international recognition on the underground has never lacked momentum. ‘Basic Colour Theory’ will add to the list of remarkable accolades the dynamic duo already have under their belt; joining their acclaimed Essential Mix in 2013, and weighty remixes for a who’s who in music electronic or otherwise, including Basement Jaxx, Kings Of Leon, Thomas Schumacher, Friendly Fires, and Kim Ann Foxman, not to mention their two previous LPs. Colour; such a pervasive part of everything we visually encounter, and its many theories a logical structure that for many artists, designers and music producers becomes an intuitive choice - a melting pot of ideas and influences in varying quantities. Evoking particular moods and emotions through choice of palette in design and sound architecture. In this full length offering, traditional songwriting meets Catz ‘N Dogz signature infectious basslines; a natural result of extensive sonic exploration and the osmotic process of years of DJing worldwide, all the while developing a deeper understanding of what they want to say through their music. Their knack for reading a crowd just right has seen them lording stages of some of the most coveted festivals across the globe, including SW4, Park Life, Bestival, Snowbombing, Electric Daisy Carnival and BPM, and has also resulted in them being booked for the iconic Movement Festival 2015 (Detroit) and Exit Festival 2016 (Serbia). The same talent that has helped them achieve such stratospheric success is translated here in a collection of inviting tracks, as they showcase their on-point producing talents."It’s our third album and we did a lot of research, preparation, reading, watching documentaries about the music scene, people and looking for inspirations everywhere. We were talking a lot about people who inspire us, art, creative process, philosophy and meaning of work and music in our life."From the off, opening cut ‘Good Touch’ exemplifies this is a true game changer for this unstoppable duo, and is the start of a fifteen-track voyage through experimental sounds as they explore a different approach to electronic music. Although a rewarding listening experience from start to finish, this is an album where each track stands alone for its own musical purpose, dancing through the listener’s mind long after listening. Tracks such as ‘Czas Poczeka’ express the heart and soul that both producers have put into this body of work, all the while keeping it up-tempo with rhythmic cuts like ‘Nobody Cares’, and expressing their affinity with varying styles. ‘Killing With Kindness’ is a soul-drenched groover, with its warm chords and atmospherics straddling a subtly clipped garage-like shuffle. Tracks such as ‘’From Your Heart’ and ‘Coming Back’ are filled with emotion, from the beguiling vocals to the moving chord progressions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154852307-R69QSLDODSUP6IEIRFF3/PETS057_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - Get It Right (Feat. Tanika) [PETS057] Firmly at the forefront of the flourishing upbeat and soulful house music movement, Polish duo Catz ‘N Dogz have rightfully earned their pedigree as one of underground music’s most sought after acts. With their eagerly anticipated ‘Basic Colour Theory’ set for release in September, Greg and Voitek now proudly announce their latest EP from the forthcoming album titled ‘Get It Right’ (Feat. Tanika) which perfectly and elegantly delivers the trademark sound of Catz ‘N Dogz. Staying true to all things that Catz ‘N Dogz have grown so accustomed to, their eccentric bass-driven and groove heavy productions have consistently drawn in fans since their 2008 debut album ‘Stars Of Zoo’. ‘Get It Right’ pays homage to their roots and builds upon their reputation as one of most eclectic dance acts to date. ‘Get It Right’ perfectly captures the experimental ethos that Catz ‘N Dogz portray within their music. The signature exuberant baselines that the duo are recognizable by are effortlessly complimented by crisp a drum rhythm. Transforming this track into an assured dance floor winner is undoubtedly the tranquil vocal melody from South London singer Tanika. A raw yet melodic vocal hook that almost whispers through the ears of the listener. ‘Get It Right’ is a duskier offering from the LP compared to the first EP’s ‘Nobody Cares’ and ‘Parallel Problems’. Each Catz ‘N Dogz track holds its own sense of identity yet never straying too far from their charming sound. ‘Get It Right’ maintains their warm assertions to electronic music yet the haunting vocal sample and jazz sounding synth arrangement make this a standout production from ‘Basic Colour Theory’. ‘Get It Right’ once more reiterates the message that Catz ‘N Dogz hold dearly within their music, to create soulful and charismatic dance tracks for world to hear. Whether it be delivering dynamic live performances across the globes most profound clubs and festivals, or hosting their own infamous ‘Pets Parties’ with the biggest names in electronic music, Catz ‘N Dogz have embedded themselves in the minds of electronic music fans world wide. Delivering a fruitful remix to the EP is one of dance music’s heavy weight producers, DJ’s, and label bosses, Claude Vonstroke. Responsible for releasing the duos first two albums through his own Dirtybird Records imprint, he’s been a strong advocate of Catz ‘N Dogz since the beginning of their musical journey. Adding his own distinctive touch on the production, Vonstroke’s remix injects a euphoric feeling of nostalgia into the EP making this release a unique listening experience like no other.A key release from ‘Basic Colour Theory’, ‘Get It Right’ is assured to build on the already monumental catalogue of productions that the duo have created since they arrived on the scene back in 2008. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154835714-52AQSIIGGM62WPJ3NTIB/PETS056_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Walker & Royce - My Stop EP [PETS056] Release #56 and we welcome super NYC duo Walker & Royce with their debut full release for Pets Recordings. Sam Walker and Gavin Royce first blew up as new talent over two years ago, with the press focusing on their deep and bubbly brand of smooth and emotional house music. Fast-forward to now, the duos been on fire, releasing on labels such as Moda Black, Sincopat and Crosstown Rebels. Now, after remixing BAUNZs Out Of The Window, its high time they focused on an EP all of their own for the Pets pound.But, forget what you know about this perky big city outfit. On My Stop, W&R have left behind their more whimsical, introverted style for a balls-to-the-wall club smash. My Stop comes to life from the get go with a thudding kick drum, resonating thickly with maximum echoes before a techy, fluctuating melody drives the track through skipping percussion, miss-hit beats and radiating shots of sub bass- it amounts to the deep nature of their usual sound making babies with dub techno, packed with swing and groove in equal, unabashed measure. The listener is about to get off without a shadow of a doubt.Seventeen brings more bass heavy dubbiness into a chugging, dropping techno workout, following a hypnotic path as vocal chops are bent, smashed and distorted out of shape as cheeky, clipped basslines add more fist pumping quality to the track.On the evidence of My Stop, its easy to see why the pair with their European flavours and influences broke out of the local Brooklyn scene to make an impact on the worlds dancelfoors and charts. Tip your hat to these fine fellows youre sure to be hearing lots from the for some time to come. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154824620-81IBIQQC6BYK495VLSTL/PETS055_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Beesmunt Soundsystem - Raindance EP [PETS55] Messrs David van der Leeuw and Luigi Vittorio Jansen have been making waves with their Beesmunt Soundsystem project, a lauded club night and DJ outfit that’s grown into a behemoth, breaking out of the Amsterdam dance music scene in which they made their name. Now the duo are returning to Pets Recordings with their new Raindance EP. Beesmunt are used to controlling crowds and opening up the heavens with their eclectic, upfront and often frenetic style of house music. After releases on Soweso, Just Jack and of course last years huge Pets debut ‘Bodyshape', Catz N’Dogz have invited this emerging tour de force back, to bring their upfront, pristine production skills for another slice of block rocking music. Opening cut 'Searchin’ kicks things off. The deep and bubbling number is characterised by the duo’s deep and bass heavy kick drums, with sweeping atmospherics, eerie vocal stabs and dusty, slo-mo drum claps. A mid tempo late night workout that touches all the right parts in equal measure as it blends house deepness with minimal pace. Title track 'Raindance' starts with thick and fattened kick drums, while ticking clicks, 808 modulation percussion and one hit bass getting gnarlier and more stripped back on every 4th beat, evoking the sweaty vibes that characterised their raucous parties back at home. Keeping true to its namesake on the flip, ‘Ominous' takes a different approach, coming with a stripped back, sound design approach, building up ominously into unpredictable beats before their trademark kick drum - rough around the edges and dripping in analogue clarity - pitches the track up a notch and un-relents until the very end. Finally, Borrowed Identity enters with remix of Searchin’, focusing on the atmospheric sweeps and vocal chops before dropping for a more 4x4 influenced workout, touched by hollow baselines and EQ’s chords. Beesmunt Soundsystem are on fire with their unapologetic, raw style and sound. Two producers well ahead of their years. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154871704-4XJJTS2XGW27VQRW950V/PETS054_Artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - The Joy EP [PETS054] Melodic cuts, harmonic vocals and soulful melodies are traits that have become so inherent to the nature of Polish outfit Catz ‘N Dogz illustrious musical paths. Driving forward from their recent EP ‘Killing With Kindness’ which received an array of solid reviews from leading publications worldwide, the duo are now proud to announce their latest release. Two upbeat, off-centre productions that truly captivates the sound of Catz ‘N Dogz. The opening track entitled ‘The Joy’ is a perfect showcase of the duos intricate ability to produce a diverse range of dance music. The warming vocal melody layered on top of a down-tempo synth arrangement gently drives the production from start to finish. Coupled with a deep, fluttering baseline ‘The Joy’ is yet another standout anthem from the pair. A burning passion and desire to break musical boundaries and create innovative productions is a quality that Catz ‘N Dogz have become rightfully synonymous with. Whether it be curating a legendary BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix or gracing the stages of the worlds most infamous clubs and festivals, the duo are firmly at the forefront of dance music. ‘I Bought It All’ stays true to the Catz ‘N Dogz mentality of music; a feel-good rhythmic dance track which is certain to sound out across dance floors across the globe. Crisp percussion and a groovy high rising synth riff that echoes throughout instantly make this track recognisable as a Catz ‘N Dogz production. A chilling vocal harmony that whispers over an up-tempo kick drum ensures that this is yet another standout creation from two of the most formidable forces in underground music. With their long-awaited ‘Basic Colour Theory Album’ soon to be released, as well as enchanting the hearts and minds of fans from the likes of DC-10 Ibiza to the UK’s iconic Glastonbury festival, Greg and Voitek will continue to spread the Catz ‘N Dogz ethos of charming and passionate music to all four corners of the globe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154817021-N92RETGHC4NJZURGMZ7N/PETS053_artwork_2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Trikk - Firma EP [PETS053] Portuguese beat controller, bass lover and forward thinking dance-floor deviant Trikk returns to Catz 'N Dogz's burgeoning Pets Recordings, delivering a slice of punchy, peak time house, oozing groove, depth and kick for a memorable interpretation of the dance-floor. With previous releases peppering the likes of ManMakeMusic, Hypercolour and Container Music, Trikk (AKA Bruno Deodato) has been surely carving out a quality reputation, one that delivers EP after EP of lush sounds and carefully crafted precision. Title track Firma takes a metronomic, ticking approach to the floor, fattened out by bloated kicks drums and peak time atmospherics, before snarling, bouncing bass lines push the track into a more techno driven mindset as the modulated oscillations get sharper and more dense as the track ploughs through. A relatively young producer, Trikk proves his production prowess on Firma, belying his years with a sound deeply rooted in a passion and understanding of the genre that many strive to reach. Liberal goes for more compressed, tempo driven ticks and hits, taking a pulsing techno-route as a driving, melodic bass line pushes the track onward, reminding of the hypnotic overtones of early R&S Records releases and the new wave of tech house luminaries such as Stephan Bodzin and Marc Romboy. Finally, another bastion of quality dance-floor music, Eduardo De La Calle, reinterprets the title groove into a 'Space Odyssey' Remix. Taking a progressive approach (a trademark that De La Calle left on big hitting remixes of the likes of The XX and more), using swirling, chanting vocal atmospherics, pulsing bass and tribal drums to offer a hypnotic groove that can long be felt after its tremors fade. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154789301-E99CN4VACK836JMOMZCV/PETS052_Artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - Killing With Kindness EP [PETS052] Following on from their recently released ‘From Your Heart’ EP, which delivered a plentiful helping of charming baselines, exquisite vocal melodies and fruitful synth arrangements, Polish duo Catz ‘N Dogz are proud to announce their second single. A mixture of five tracks, two from their forthcoming ‘Basic Colour Theory’ LP and three stand alone productions that stay true to the classic Catz ‘N Dogz sound that they have grown so accustomed to. Each of the five tracks withhold the alluring and joyful electronic sound that the duo consistently manage to capture in not only their studio work but also in their live performances. The wonderfully recognisable Catz ‘N Dogz baseline is ever present throughout each track, highlighted particularly through ‘Killing With Kindness’ featuring Detroit born rapper Phat Kat who adds a vocal melody of pure ambience. Absorbing influences from all genres of the musical spectrum, Catz ‘N Dogz constantly incorporate a varying array of styles within each of their tracks. The darker, duskier collaboration with Chicago’s Green Velvet for ‘Keep On’ portrays the versatility of the duo perfectly. The ability to switch between a big room dance anthem down to a slower more melodic based track alludes many artists, yet it is a trait that Catz ‘N Dogz have been so rightfully championed with. Greg and Voitek’s unparalleled passion for electronic music rightfully makes them two of the most captivating modern artists to watch perform live. Whether it be taking to the DJ booth at the worlds most infamous clubs, or charming crowds at the worlds biggest festivals, their unique blend of house music has captured the minds of dance music fans across world. Following suit from the likes of their magnificent remix of Thomas Schumacher's 'Hush', ‘I Can Do Anything’ is assured to be yet another big room dance track. The high pitch synth progression and classic Chicago sounding kick drums make this a phenomenal production from their latest single. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154820641-V192TLCQUPFSVGKJ7XNS/PETS051_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz 'n Dogz - From Your Heart EP [PETS051] Having recently announced their third LP, „Basic Colour Theory“, Pets Recordings’ label owners Catz ‘N Dogz proudly present the first EP of music to be taken from the album. A fine selection of evocative melodies and gorgeous vocals. The first EP that covers tracks “From Your Heart”, “Nobody Cares” and non-album track “Parallel Problems” emphasizes the albums extensive sonic exploration and signature songwriting, evoking particular moods and emotions through the production pairs choice of palette in design and sound architecture. Soaking up influence from archived recordings of artists such as Patrick Cowley, Tangerine Dream, Mark Rosen amalgamated with fascination of 70’s Polish soundtracks resulted in the dreamy collaboration “From Your Heart” with Peter, Bjorn & John; the Swedish indie-pop trio responsible for interweaving soothing electric guitar and ambient vocals between Catz ‘N Dogz crisp production and chugging Korg R3 bassline . Undoubtedly a key album standout for the pair. “Parallel Problems” continues as an exemplar of how Catz ‘N Dogz influential experimentations yields impressive results—tranquil and museful and awash with more far a field influence, yet capable of compelling dance floor turns with its metronomic beats and percussion. Keeping it up-tempo the rhythmic cut ‘Nobody Cares’ in line with the track's joyful nature shows the pair expressing their affinity with varying styles. Taking firm lead of the Eastern European electronic music revolution, the pair, who have previously graced the cover of both Mixmag and DJ Mag Spain, have for some time been poised for significant success as their international recognition on the underground has never lacked momentum. ‘Basic Colour Theory’ will add to the list of remarkable accolades the dynamic duo already have under their belt; joining their acclaimed Essential Mix in 2013, and weighty remixes for a who’s who in music electronic or otherwise, including Basement Jaxx, Kings Of Leon, Thomas Schumacher, Friendly Fires, and Kim Ann Foxman, not to mention their two previous LPs. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154763955-4GFGENJAFX6PGHFF5IFL/PETS050_artwork_2500x2500.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Justin Jay - Momentum EP [PETS050] 21-year-old Justin Jay announces his Momentum EP, due out on Monday, March 16th via Catz' 'N Dogz' Pets Recordings. Nine months since his last EP, Instincts, on dirtybird, this Los Angeles native delivers a soundtrack from his last semester at University of Southern California to show just how much he has matured over the last months, both personally and musically. Challenging himself to always take things one step further, Justin Jay continues to grow as an artist with sophistication, and expand his knowledge as a producer/DJ. Produced in his college bedroom, Justin Jay's Momentum EP begins with hat tip to Motown's Gladys Knight & The Pips with "How I Knew," a hypnotizing deep house number with evolving bass lines, on-point percussion, and recognizable vocal sample. "Momentum," his second collaboration with fellow dirtybird, Kill Frenzy, follows to showcase the pair's affinity for driving, warehouse-ready techno with subtle intricacies. Closing out the EP with his buzzed about Mixmag Lab set opener, "You Give Me Butterflies," leaves listeners with carefree vibe driven by a smooth and dreamy house groove, accented with layered, mood-elevating synth work. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154744928-EZ5CO7MEUHYBK2XDQ4AK/PETS049_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - HNNY - Carefree [PETS049] Just ahead of a landmark 50th EP release, Catz ‘N Dogz’s Pets Recordings turn to Johan Cederberg aka HNNY for a special five track release that very much invites us deep into the off kilter world of the revered Swedish producer. Before now HNNY - preferably pronounced “honey” - has won himself many fans with curious and quirky releases on labels including Studio Barnhus, Let’s Play House and Local Talk. Producing house but with a charming sense of melody, a great ear for a sample and an irresistible sense of groove, he is a firm DJ and dancer favourite all across Europe, and for good reason. Opening the EP is ‘Happy Happy House House’, a lazy, beachy cut awash with sun-kissed melody and trip hop grooves. Swaying gently to and fro, it’s an immediately soothing track before ‘Brasilian Sound’ is as Latin as you would expect from the title: it's a percussive, summery, atmospheric jaunt though up-tempo and feel-good house that's littered with distant whistles, the sound of kids playing in the park and a variety of loveable instruments. ‘Fresh Laundry’ then drops into a much slower and more purposeful groove - stoned drums and a distant bassline unfold lazily before big wind instruments begin tooting up top. It’s human, imperfect and full of keys that imbue it with the joys of spring. On the flip, ‘Fruktstund’ is another adult lullaby with colourful, cartoony instrumentals, angular grooves and plenty of organic textures, whilst closer ‘Yogalates’ is much the same with its big xylophones, joyous piano chords, rubbery kicks and generally disarming sense of playfulness. Spring is just round the corner but it feels so much closer with these enchanting new cuts from HNNY. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154711943-BKGODKNSCVUGSEV7Y4WT/PETS048_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - KiNK - Fantasia EP [PETS048] Continuing a very special and fruitful relationship, Catz N Dogzs always captivating Pets Recordings recruits close friend KiNK for his first ever release on the label. It finds the Bulgarian live specialist and techno innovator serving up a fantastic new cut and comes with a remix from raw American talent Truncate. KiNK, of course, is known for his mesmeric and logic defying live shows, his acerbic releases on labels like Macro who released his excellent recent album, Self Destruction and Ovum, as well as his passion for weird sounds. KiNK is also the producer behind Rachel Rows brace of hits for Pets and the prominent vocalist once again features here with some stunning work. That continues on his track here, Fantasia, which is a brooding and slow burning track with a synth line that goes from rubbery to acidic. Around it, patient percussion, deep, warm kicks and breathy female vocals add a sense of sexual tension then finally, KiNKs trademark and colourful synth freakiness takes over. Its the sort of track that will lock in dancefloors and mesmerise them for the duration. The remix comes from Truncate, who runs his own eponymously entitled label, releases on 50Weapons and produces deep, textured house and techno. His version is more urgent and techno leaning, with paranoid siren like hooks, scurrying basslines and lots of ravey warehouse intent. This standout release which comes with 10 vinyl-only locked grooves - once again confirms KiNK to be a truly unique craftsmen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154708977-CKPB26298EOIC19P3NTA/PETS047_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Eats Everything - Reworks [PETS047] Pets Recordings and Eats Everything go together like tea and cake; like sausage and mash, so it makes sense they have hooked up again for a cheeky one-off release. It finds Eats Everything offering up two special edits of classic tracks straight from his own DJ sets, and they are to be released both digitally and and on vinyl. The first edit finds the Bristol boy tackling a classic 2011 Detroit cut by Paperclip People, and the second is a rework of a seminal 1994 release by Moonchild aka Alun Harrison and Graham Simmons. If youve heard Eats Everything recently you will likely have heard these exclusive club edits getting huge reactions. Up first, Eats subtly tweaks Parking Garage Politics, layering in raw house jack, metallic percussive slices and a modulated baseline that will keep floors looked throughout. Its bulky and textured, grows ever more banging as things unfold and channels plenty of Mid West energy of the sort that fits perfectly with Dans own originals. Next up, Variations on a Theme features the classic work your body vocal samples, cut up, chopped and dropped into a bootylicious bass framework that pumps in fine style. Some warm, colourful chords flesh out the groove as do plenty of old school synth signifiers. Its a scorching edit that will warm through chilly winter dance floors for some time to come. Proving he is as fresh when editing as he is when crafting his own boutique bangers, Eats Everything comes correct once more with this EP. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154766632-KJ8O3VXAGHGGLW4V4NWV/PETS046_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154706079-EWD4VQCTAQV2R9HKQBYT/PETS045_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Beesmunt Soundsystem - Bodyshape EP [PETS045] Beesmunt Soundsystem is swiftly becoming a Dutch institution… Commanding the controls at their own events in Amsterdam’s legendary Paradiso by the age of 18, David van der Leeuw and Luigi Vittorio Jansen carved their path as discerning selectors long before they established their own studio. Emerging into the world of production in 2012, their breakthrough cuts arrived on Soweso Music and were received well across the board… “All Day”, in particular, was featured on Breach’s critically acclaimed “DJ Kicks” mix. Earlier this year their appearance on Bristol’s Just Jack has won them more friends, with “How I Wish” scoring them summer appearances across Europe. Now making their debut on Pets with three immutable examples of pristine production dynamics, their friendlist and schedule is set to develop even more. Get to know… “Body Shape” speaks with a universal techno tongue; industrial strength beats plough and plunder with clanks and bangs while a dominant detuned synth hammers home an insistent riff that will resonate across the widest realms of house and techno. “Amsterdam 808” pays homage to their home city’s techno legacy and develops these dark motifs further. Naked rim shots batter a hypnotic message into your psyche over the bubbling kick/bass combo. A series of claps builds into a hook that bounces like a tightly coiled spring. Stark, sharp and unyielding, this is a timeless exercise in 808 science that smoulders with a tribal sense of physicality. Finally we hit “Sugar Square”, and it’s as sweet as it sounds. Sitting happily between Underground Resistance and Jam & Spoon, it taps into the deepest roots of slinky, emotive electronica. Twinkling with every melodic flourish, glistening with every rhythmic twist; it’s the ultimate complement to the darkness that precedes it and showcases the duo’s broadest skills and abilities.   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154700903-AKXZFZVXMNHHHTX9H7EK/PETS044.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Friends WIll Carry You Home III - Part 3 [PETS044] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154700035-MCRSED1L6LAALXU7P2CL/PETS043.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Friends WIll Carry You Home III - Part 2 [PETS043] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154703701-VWQMBHQ8KLX6EVDOK2FC/PETS042X.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Friends WIll Carry You Home III - Part 1 [PETS042] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154698355-5MOCFTMKL4BOMA194PYX/PETS041_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Tong & Flynn & Rogers - Hear Me Now EP [PETS041] Attention: Our favourite furry friends have delivered something VERY special right here! Rachel Row returns to Pets with a KiNK-produced sonic star-gazer that’s turbo-charged with high levels of spine-melting emotion. Purring alluring vocals, ice-cold blasts of concentrated synth euphoria, devious acid bubbles and drums so wholesome they could feed a family of four for an entire year… “L Square” comes on strong like Orbital-meets-Goldfrapp and celebrates every classic ingredient we’ve always loved about electronic music along the way. Following the runaway success of Rachel’s debut “Follow The Step” – one of 2013’s biggest tracks which went on to be licenced by Defected – we’re anticipating big things. Naturally the remixes are equally stunning… KiNK’s own remix is a tech-flavoured juggernaut complete with a bulbous dubbed out bassline, insistent percussion, twisted FX and chug-thugged beats while Keinemusik’s Adam Port slaps down a naked jacking banquet that gives a whole new lease of life to Rachel’s spellbinding vocal. Covering every corner of the dance in two perfectly produced reversions, very few floors will be able to avoid this emotive suckerpunch throughout 2014. Another surefire smash from Rachel, Pets and KiNK… If you’re hungry for more, don’t forget KiNK is currently repping his mind-blowing live performance on the Catz Eats Kink tour alongside label bossmen Catz N Dogz and good friend Eats Everything.

Parties, festivals and albums are all on the horizon but preceding these and sounding the new year fanfare is the debut release from UK based Italian and rising star, Baunz. Having already impressed with his releases for More Music and Moda Black, 2013 also saw Baunz lend his remix talents to the Maya Jane Coles produced 'Suspicious Heart' on 2020Vision and rework pop favourites Rudimental. His Pets debut, Out Of The Window, rolls outs its sleazy slappin' bassline matching it brilliantly to the spoken vocal from 3rd Eye. Simplicity is key here as Baunz adds filtered stabs and ivory chords to create an excellent slab of laid-back funk. NYC's Walker & Royce return to Pets, following their 2012 remix of Chmara Winter, and turn in a rework that has cemented itself as a mainstay and highlight of the sets of label bosses Catz 'n Dogz. The heavy kick and bulbous bassline retain the laid-back vibes of the original whilst adding some serious dancefloor dirt. German techno sensation Andre Kronert closes the package with a powerful excursion that sees Out Of The Window thrust from one extreme to the other and revamped for the harder, darker floors. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154693427-F17KNHRNK13I4DUY6HWT/PETS038.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Thomas Schumacher - Hush (Catz 'n Dogz 2013 Remix) EP [PETS038] Hush is a lolloping, booty-shifting rendition of an old Thomas Schumacher track Schall. Written under Thomass alter-ego Elektrochemie LK, the original (released in 1996), was a wonderfully crude sonic scud missile that informed and influenced techno artists on both sides of the Atlantic. Spitfire tempo a-go-go, it embodies the very spirit of the term funky techno thanks its fine balance of snub-nosed grit and demonstratively outlandish bassline. Always inspired by this epic floor-slammer, Greg and Voitek had been toying with the idea of creating a respectful edit. Then, thanks to a chance backstage encounter, their dream of paying it the ultimate homage with an official remix was realised earlier this year. It turns out Thomas is just as much of a fan of Catz N Dogz are they are of him so he unearthed the old dusty DAT tape and told them to do their best. Naturally the duo have stepped up in every way. The nagging vocal loop leads the charge as a soft kick drum sets the drive. Cue hand claps, cue off-beat snare hits, cue bold splashing hi-hats. A bombardment of the senses ensues as one of Catz N Dogz juiciest ever basslines thunders its way into the mix along with classic detuned synth stabs and more iconic vocal loops. With lightning strike build-ups, fluctuating frequency textures and a groove thats so powerful it could feed a family of four for an entire month, it doesnt just pay Thomass original respect but showcases Catz N Dogz at their funkiest and most creative. Complete with trippy artwork from Parisian artist Oliver Flandrois, Hush has been tried and tested in every Catz N Dogz & Thomas Schumacher set since the summer. If theres a better way to end their most productive year to date, weve yet to hear it. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154691523-VDNR0E9I1D2ZIWGGWR3F/pets037.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Jay Shepheard - High Way EP [PETS037] Having secured a position in the Pets premier league with his brutal-but-beautiful Right Reason on the labels Friends Will Carry You Home compendium earlier this year, Catz 'N Dogz are proud to present Jay Shepheards first full single release on their label. And what a release it is Two smouldering slabs of unyielding house music that shimmy and shake with muscular musicality, theres universal appeal as the Retrofit label boss references the rich heritage of Detroit, Berlin and New York with consummate ease. High Way takes the lead: A linear synth riff morphs back and forth with a techno-like insistency while a tightly clipped vocal sample creates the perfect balance with euphoric soul. These seemingly contrasting elements are tied together by a thick, sweet syrup like bassline underbelly. The end result? A bulbous late night strut-out that defies any formal categorisations. Won Ton Crystal continues this rich vein of form as rigidly edited vocals and sinewy synth shots bounce off each other with stripped back serendipity. For added melodic firepower pay close attention to the buoyant bassline. Refusing to sit still, it adds an insatiable sense of latent, knowing funk. Two exemplary examples of pure house music from one of the scenes most distinctive, respected producers. These have been a long time coming; Jays studio is right next door to Catz 'N Dogz laboratory! Lets hope they dont leave it so long for the follow up release. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154698961-35Y465B7PCSSKUVU556N/PETS036_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Catz Eats Dogz aka Catz 'n Dogz & Eats Everything - Stinky Lollipop EP [PETS036] Their relationship was compounded by dirtybird dynamics; both acts sitting on the fringes of house and techno, neither side shy of the rich taste of bass, the work of both Eats Everything and Catz N Dogz has always sat side-by-side…. But never together. Until now. Finding time in their hectic international DJ schedules, amid releases on the likes of Hypercolour, Crosstown Rebels, Get Physical, dirtybird, Defected, Mothership and Pets the trio have collided to conjure up two of the most distinctive house tracks of the coming season. Tried and tested in their sets throughout the summer they’re finally ready to unleash them on you. Care to take a suck on their ‘Stinky Lollipop’? Described by Eats Everything in a recent interview as “heads down, hands up”, ‘Evil Tram’ is a thunderous slab of feel-good. Slinky organs pierce the chop-slapping rhythm as more and more elements are introduced; a sexy female vocal loop, hip-snapping percussion, crucial speed garage laser gun bubbles and an almighty drum crescendo on the build. A timeless, jacking brew with subtle nuances of party insanity the execution is so natural it’s hard to believe it’s their first collaboration. Up next: ‘Where House’. From the moment the staccato vocal hit and tight rolling percussion fires out of the speakers you’ll understand the title’s reference. A Hardy-hard rhythm with shades of Detroitian tech gnarliness; it’s the perfect foil to the vibrancy of ‘Evil Tram’. Gritty, growling and peppered with tripped out twisted samples and loopy loopery, it’s designed for the deepest, darkest of warehouses where your only friends are the lasers and bass bins. Rydim completes the set with his own take on ‘Evil Tram’. Streamlining the original’s carnivalian elements into a more straight-up jack-attack, his uncompromising blend instantly conjures up memories of early Classic Recordings releases where the full emphasis is placed on the chest-pressing groove. Applying some mesmerising effects and processes to the vocal loop for a spell-binding lead melody, it’s not hard to see why Rydim’s a firm friend with labels such as Tsuba and Btaim. Two instantly distinctive, unmissable originals. One killer remix. They say it’s a dog eat dog world. Well not anymore… Welcome to the crazy world of Catz Eats Dogz. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154690169-YCS28G1950W7A39NCXTR/PETS035.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Chmara Winter - Unreleased Remixes EP [PETS035] Pets Recordings present an exclusive remix release that sees label debutants HNNY and Danny Daze turn their remix talents on a brace of tracks from Pets regulars, Chmara Winter. Polish duo Chmara Winter have become known for their intricate productions and work with audio textures that impress and delight in equal measure. Kris & Bart's tracks have been entrusted to the care of HNNY & Danny who turn in two very contrasting reworks. Studio Barnhaus artist HNNY takes the reigns on Kings Of Zenon and treats us to a wonderfully low slung, mesmeric groove. Stabbing rhodes riffs are joined by a pained flute and erratic popping synths, whilst the breathy vocal floats beneath. Quite the concoction but each ingredient is mixed to perfection by the Swedish producer to create the most delicious of dishes. The laid back daytime vibe of the A side is countered by the Danny Daze remix of Pushcan. The Miami native takes us Prime Time as he reworks the original into a bruising, pulsating animal that lives only for the dark rooms. The sultry vocal heightens the tension as Daze builds the pressure, allowing it to bubble and simmer but never boil and even when the bass drops, the never loses control, impressive. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154686206-AL7IDJ36N6W3KXZ18JTZ/pets034.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - VA - Home Is Where The Pool Is EP [PETS034] Having launched 2013 with their epic label compilation Friends Will Carry You Home Too, wrapped us in the beautiful musical tapestry of Uffe's 'Times All' and re-introduced us to San Francisco's local legend Nikola Bytala on his self-titled ep. Pets Recordings now look to soundtrack the summer with their latest V/A collection, 'Home Is Where The Pool Is'. Ice-cool and sun-tinged is the order of the day with this new four track ep and its two Pets debutants that lead the way. With a heavy helping of balearic bliss running throughout the release ALiVE boss Tom Budden opens the show with the cascading synths of Lazy June. This is backed by Baise-Moi Dit-Elle from Germany's Borrowed Identity, a track that could easily have been plucked from the classic Cafe del Mar compilations of the 1990s but which is now set to soundtrack our drift into darkness throughout this season. UK producer Bearight returns to the fold with the brilliantly named, Buoyant. Bathed in strings this bass-heavy number bobs along and presents itself as a perfect end-of-night selection. Finally Belgium's Rework revisits Uffe's Valentines Card and presents his deep and hypnotic vision. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154684309-V972WN94VTGDTAIN18J5/PETS033_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Nikola Baytala - Nikola Baytala [PETS033] All any DJ touching down in San Francisco needs is Nikola Baytala's number on speed dial. Whether you're a frequent visitor or a virgin to the West Coast city, it's imperative to call on him for an in-the-know tour of the City's finest spots. Apart from underground SF expeditions, Baytala's legacy comprises some of the most kinetic and dynamic club tracks ever released, an eclectic record collection so big it requires its own postcode and a vintage car and bike collection nicely referenced in the artwork for his first release on Pets Recordings. The Nikola Baytala EP sees Baytala explore his far reaching influences with the help of Myles Egner (with label bosses, Catz N Dogz, and fellow San Franciscans, Pillow Talk, on remix duties.) Opening track, Zero $ carves out a chugging 4x4 beat that soon becomes overrun with dark and dischordant synth tones and a stripped back bass line that buzzes with reverb. This is house at its most ominous. Catz N Dogz drag the track back into the light for the remix, filling gaps with skippy and spirited drum lines, replacing moodiness with movement. Cityz Angels presents groove driven house at its finest, as Baytala releases and silences a mirage of keys, synths and machine vox sounds in time with the kick drum to create a complex, yet satisfying dance floor mover. Pillow Talk instantly latch onto this stylish nonchalance for their Cityz Angels (MTs Pillow Talk remix), bringing a freestyle jazz breakdown to their laidback, rhythmic rework. The Nikola Baytala EP is Baytalas first release for a number of years and his skilled, non trend-pandering formula impresses yet again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154686496-WWLARWOB3RCXZNP7K5K1/PETS032_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Uffe - Times All [PETS032] Lasts years debut for Pets Recordings saw Uffe impress with the luxuriantly textured and deep Colors Inside. Amsterdam based Uffes next offering for Catz N Dogzs label goes even further to indulge their penchant for downtempo and complex house hybrids. After recent releases on Crosstown Rebels and Tartelet, 'Times All for Pets sees Uffe proudly voice an if you dont know, get to know statement on behalf of his unique and experimental compositions. Opening track All I Did instantly swells with Uffes measured yet intriguing vocal, loaded with effects. His voice assumes the same status as the rest of his electronic repertoire as synth chords, strings and original vox echo, twang and expand with warmth, before a classic 4x4 kick becomes the beating heart of the track. Jon Convex takes charge of the All I Did remix on the B-side, allowing the beat to thump harder as uncomfortable buzzes and static flit around Uffes looped vocal making for perfect techy dance floor fodder. Pretending draws listeners in with an atmospheric, clunky percussion line before Uffes skillful vocal twisting sees his unique instrument take on melody, harmony, lyrics and chords, while warped bleeps and murky underwater keys complete the strange yet secure environment. Acid Pauli takes Pretending to more playful territories on the remix as the beat and bass line bump with a little more bounce, without losing sight of the absolute warmth Uffe instills in his cross-instrument blends. By contrast, Valentines Card sighs with a certain solemnity as Uffes whispered lyrics yearn over funky string plucks and a gentle maraca shuffle. Times All shows Uffe taking full advantage of Pets anything goes aesthetic, and the results are arguably his best yet. Enjoy! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154682506-UFORVOEFW4M5NVF7HG7I/PETS031_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Kixnare / Good Paul - Cloned Soul EP [PETS031] Still enjoying the overwhelming response to their Friends Will Carry You Home Too label compilation, the Pets Recordings team look to enhance the buzz yet further with their next release. Having alway professed their intention of assisting and promoting new Polish talent, label chiefs Catz 'n Dogz are happy to bring you the latest work from two of the country's brightest new production talents, Kixnare and Good Paul. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154678695-94SMIM3IP28RR0J36FVY/PETS030_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154670683-6UNDOKRIR54DA14K5XCV/PETS029_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154671128-8ZL96M79WA8U6U8BEB5D/PETS028_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154663917-EDOM94MVX5CAFRT38XQ5/PETS027_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Stefano Ritteri - Nice Up Your Dance EP [PETS027] Previously releasing crunked up house on the likes of dirtybird, Sound Pellegrino and Exploited under the Solo moniker, Stefano Ritteri returns with the 'Nice Up Your Dance' EP on suitably chameleon-like Pets Recordings. Excited by the prospect of releasing a body of work under his real name, Ritteri’s latest output has already been snapped up by Defected and Saved. The new three track ep straddles the more exuberant edges of house with a skilled and serious production sensibility, and invites UK mainstays Jaymo and Andy George to perform remix duties. ‘Nice Up Your Dance’ opens the show with its audacious guitar riff, vintage key work, whimsical vocal sample and relentless party claps, a staple of Ritteri’s club focused productions. While ‘Nice Up Your Dance’ works to tease you into a knowing smile, ‘Let Us Pray’ steps up with a take-your-breath-away bassline, leading the way for the ultra-nostalgic melody line and pitch-shifted vocal. Jaymo and Andy George take things one step further, giving ‘Let Us Pray’ a thick and sultry rework. Here, the bassline truly is all consuming, while dissonant rings add an extra edge to the sonorous vocal sample. A weird yet very welcome added string to the Pets Recordings bow, Stefano Ritteri’s first outing on the Polish label is sure to set tongues wagging https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154654574-O97N7OBNEC7S5ZPBEABF/PETS026_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - Tom Demac - Little Bits That Matter [PETS026] Fresh off the back of an enormous Hypercolour EP that saw the house and bass movements come together in awe and appreciation, Tom Demac returns with the Little Bits That Matter EP on Pets Recordings. A restless soul with constantly evolving live material, its hard to imagine the London based artist releasing anything less than genuinely unique productions, and Little Bits That Matter does not fall short. The three-tracker heaves from start to finish with thick set synth work, far-flung vocals and all consuming basslines; a perfect end-of-year gem that highlights label bosses Catz N Dogzs penchant for a low end focus. Title track Little Bits That Matter sees Tom Demac take the modern house template and cultivate it into what sounds like a living, breathing entity. Rhythmic claps and hi hats are offset by stifled pants and Phil Kays vocal is so beautifully blended with the melody that its impossible to separate the two at parts. Tanner chugs along with a sophisticated groove, sprightly strings and a striking vocal hook until a vintage disco inspired break down elevates the track even further from the norm. Far darker in sound, B side Rain Of Colour works with a plucky, dissonant melody and a sweeping, club controlling bassline that will leave you mindblown. Raw, personal and, most importantly, instantly danceable, Tom Demacs offering follows a long line of exciting, high quality output from the Polish Pets imprint. The Little Bits That Matter EP will be released digitally - 17th Dec - and on vinyl from 10th Dec. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154653093-CI71SU83EE1IP2HEWHQ9/PETS025_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154653406-PT55U9M00DYJFCCCVBK0/PETS024_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481154649502-D40TZ8LY8CDCX0MPDVX3/PETS023_artwork.jpg PETS Recordings Releases - A1 Bassline - Breakaway [PETS023] Pets Recordings welcome label debutant A1 Bassline and also announce the production of their fourth vinyl release. Having shared the stage as dirtybird label mates its now time for Pets bosses Catz 'n Dogz to welcome an artist who's music has become a staple of their own DJ sets. Its been a busy few weeks for Christian Sibthorpe aka, A1 Bassline. With the imminent release of the first single from his own SOURCEUNKNWN label and his excellent track "Daft" having just dropped on dirtybird, the young Brighton resident is currently enjoying the richest of musical form, further highlighted by his fantastic 3 track "Breakaway EP." Christian's musical influences took hold from a very early age. Having spent his teenage years frequenting the vinyl temples of Big Apple, Swag Records and secondhand store Beanos, buying garage, grime and drum and bass, it was another establishment or rather party, that also played a defining role in his musical career. "Technicality" was the forward thinking DnB club night that paid homage to the famous Metalheadz Blu Note parties and it was here, alongside other regulars including Ben UFO, Fold and Breakage that Christian furthered his love of bass driven music. Having released his debut 12" at the tender age of 17, A1 Bassline has worked on and sought for a sound that he is content with.

In 2019 MSM gave Step 6 tracks for their 'Travellers' EP, receiving support from a variety of artists like Honey Soundsystem, DJ Sling, Photonz, Ciel, Jad & to name a few. After nearly two years and releases on labels like Public Release, Yellow Island and Bosconi Records, the London-based duo return on Pets' sub-label with 5 tracks, produced before and during the first 2020 global lockdown. 'Les Mondes Des Images' is a collection of some of MSM's deepest tracks, with a strong connection between sounds and visuals: each track is in fact named after some of their favourite paintings, aiming at fusing the senses. The EP opens up with the stomping and moody 'Terre Ecosaisse', a firey red cut; following is the title Track; a 4/4 cut driven by a melancholic pad and stabs melody, full of hopes and green. 'Sping Crown' is a minimalistic gem, surrounded by a very blue mood. The EP closes with 'The Riot', a bright broken beat track, driven by a wonderful crescendo into a sunny yellow vibe. Finally 'N.15', a bonus ambient track, where light arpeggios are blended with a soothing piano melody. Like a grey rainy day. Step Recordings presents 'Les Mondes Des Images' by Metropolitan Soul Museum, out on the 21st of Feb 2021. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1611300813745-5GVMSQTGI4A8EK1YYPGO/a3634975385_16.jpg STEP Recordings - Ruff Stuff - Origins And Moments [STEP027] Step Recordings starts its 2021 with a bang: in January they drop an EP coming from Shall Not Fade and Madhouse's usual suspect Ruff Stuff. After releasing music from Baltra, Pantera Krause, Third Son and more, Catz N' Dogz are adding another rising talent to their Step's catalogue: Ruff Stuff. The Italian born, Berlin based producer delivers 4 hot House tinged tracks to warm up the winter. Ruff Stuff has put together for STEP a collection of warm analogue sounding tracks, driven by soulful pads, relentless 4/4 grooves, smooth and deep basslines. The EP opens up with the fast paced 'Daily Routine', guided by a wonderfully programmed 909 drum beat. Following is 'Let It Move', a deep cut permeated by a classic House vibe, where you can really hear Ruff Stuff's personal touch. 'River Side', with its percussion and sampled voice is another gem, one of those unstoppable tracks that looks at Chicago for inspiration. The EP closes with 'Ma Love': straight groove, bright stabs, rumbling bass: dancefloor killer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1605865201366-CTAHCSNR0JTOE5G8L0GK/STEP-Low-Ration-cover.jpg STEP Recordings - Low Ratio - Layers [STEP025] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1604054055863-AV5YK5ECU5FSF4BWAXDX/STEP02.jpg STEP Recordings - VA - STEPS 02 [STEP024] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1601023015796-4KG1K6ZMIR6CIS9BJ14G/a0048835242_10.jpg STEP Recordings - Third Son - Mimeo [STEP023] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1596722987201-CYBAVF74O3VY1II7TI4U/a1278376396_10.jpg STEP Recordings - Nørus - Denise [STEP022] https://steprecordings.bandcamp.com/album/n-rus-denise-step022 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1593167085198-EOAT5MUQEVGUJZGH8XYS/STEP-Das-Komplex---Miasz-2020-04-20-cover.jpg STEP Recordings - Das Komplex - Miazsz [STEP021] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1558696871530-NN8JXCY6PHG3EUV80NAH/STEP020+cover+digital+2.jpg STEP Recordings - Metropolitan Soul Museum - Travellers EP Metropolitan Soul Museum - Travellers EP https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1558696998118-7HADKB96RDPZMD58ICOF/STEP019_cover-2.jpg STEP Recordings - K.

With previous appearances on Transatlantyk, the auspicious newcomer slots neatly into the STEP catalogue in presenting his ‘Underworld’ EP: a package of softly glowing lo-fi that fans of Baltra’s recent ‘Sophia’ EP on STEP will relish. Underworld then unfolds at a steady, hypnotic pace as moody, interlocking chords and paired up with a gentle spoken vocal that work together to create a poignant, eyes-down mood. Icy strings and a trippy spoken are introduced before ‘Kora Buta’ follows up with some warm, swooning sample work. ‘Sleeper’ is next up as distant, meandering thumb pianos and rainy textures colour the tracks fuzzy drums while a glassy, Legowelt-esque pad glides overhead.‘Frequenza’ kicks things off a soft, sizzling pad sent ducking under a rock-hard kick drum. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1485951326149-HKV9P38R1L1WSVYG6YTX/STEP013_vinyl-page-002.jpg STEP Recordings - The Analog Roland Orchestra - 303 and Chill EP [STEP013] The Analog Roland Orchestra - 303 and Chill EP [STEP013] https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481586464101-SBYKNNMXF011MWQ6MQZQ/STEP012_vinyl-page-002.jpg STEP Recordings - Reno Wurzbacher - Memories EP [STEP012] Spell PETS backwards to get STEP.

Baltra has garnered a fervent following through his intricate and evocative productions that marry bold drums with delicate melodies. Staying true to form, the New York based artist presents his ‘Sophia’ EP - a scuzzy two-track EP built around his common thematic anchor of love, passion and relationships. Mixed to tape, the record carries a raw, tangible quality and kicks off with ‘Lookin 4 Love’. Fizzing 909s are driven through soft, circling synth tones and sultry spoken vocals before ‘Over Again’ melds tricky drum programming with clipped, moody vocal samples that cap off another fine addition to the STEP series - the second record from an artist firmly on his ascent". https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481586517546-LTZDLKFR8JGNOXRLQIU2/STEP010_vinyl-page-002.jpg STEP Recordings - Eltron - Gone EP [STEP010] Spell PETS backwards to get STEP. Spell STEP forwards and you get PETS going back to basics. STEP is the new vinyl-only label from the founders of PETS – Catz n Dogz – with a focus on the rawest forms and root functions of dance music. STEP searches for the fundamentals with under-the-radar house and techno that’s not afraid to be rough around the edges. It’s all about the music. This new offering from Poland’s maverick jock – Eltron (aka Eltron John) – distills some of his unmistakable energy into 3 riddim-and-blues cuts. No frills. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481199124106-WYL4Y3B9DYCY2E1TD1X7/step009+vinyl+circle-page-001.jpg STEP Recordings - Das Komplex - All For Love LP [STEP009] Catz ‘n Dogz ready the next 12” on their vinyl only PETS raw and refined offshoot - STEP. This comes in the follow up to records from A1 Bassline, Eduardo De La Calle, Andre Kronert and the label owners themselves and marks the return Das Komplex who offers up his ‘All For Love’ LP. Hailing from Koszalin in Poland, Das Komplex is undoubtedly an artist of many talents - a full time Architect by trade, he has released material on Father And Son Records and Tapes label and also offered up the extolled and coveted 6th pressing on the STEP imprint back in August 2015 - a record that sold out rapidly after hitting the shelves. Now - his return marks the first foray into long-play format for STEP and allows Das Komplex to stretch his legs across 8 masterful Disco grooves. Dżem kicks things off to a sunny start with sizzling guitar licks and softly pattering bongos before the slick Italo-tinged ‘Obelisk’ and the richly atmospheric ‘Redukcja Dysonansu Poznawczego’ follow up. The project spreads out towards the jubilant and dreamy ‘All For Love’ which leads into ‘Brukiew’ - an introverted but ultimately feel-good conclusion that wraps up a beautifully balmy collection and another coup for STEP. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/58179d8844024385b4f8cab8/1481156200555-EYR7R208NF656EH2WHOM/STEP008_artwork.jpg STEP Recordings - Eduardo De La Calle - Kashma EP [STEP008] Spell PETS backwards to get STEP.
