Dianarp 'The Entanglement' on Noise In Harmony

After 'Marcha' on Impulse Recordings in May, Dianarp now delivers a first for Noise In Harmony, with 'The Entanglement'. It is a record built around harmonic shifts, not drum-led momentum. The percussion is thick, but the true movement happens in the chords, which push forward across the duration of the track, finding release when they finally lock into place.

Sonically the record is dense and full-on, with little give underneath the peaks. That is not to say it is harsh. The top end is temperate, smoothed over, so the force of the track comes from weight rather than abrasion. As with much of Dianarp's catalogue, it lives in the space between elegance and drive.

The release arrives at a busy time for both artist and label. For Noise In Harmony it is the 14th of 2026 so far, while for Dianarp it is a first for the outlet and the latest step in a steady run of form that has seen releases on Superordinate Music, AH Digital and One Of A Kind over the past year.

Vintage Culture, DEPARTAMENTO 'Copycat' on AFFAIRS

Yulia Niko placed Vintage Culture and DEPARTAMENTO's 'Copycat' in the Extended seventh of 14 on the Melodig Week 20 chart on 3 Jul. The single, filed as Melodic House and Techno, arrived on AFFAIRS on 3 Jul 2026. Yulia Niko was on the bill at Cova Santa in Ibiza on 10 Jul, for WooMooN.

Drums and chords weigh the same across 'Copycat', moving through a moderate count of hits to the beat. The mix stays loud and forward, with little movement left under its own peaks, and a moderate brightness sits across the top end, keeping the whole thing lifted without turning harsh.

Vintage Culture takes the stage at Santanna Mykonos on 8 Jul, on a bill also carrying Toman, and again at SAGE in Berlin on 11 Jul, for Watergate Open Air alongside Floyd Lavine, Manda Moor and Doozie. Vintage Culture has made 149 releases since 24 March 2009, mostly on SPINNIN' RECORDS, Musical Freedom, Defected and SPINNIN' DEEP, and the most recent before this was 'Cercle Festival 2026' on Cercle Records, on 26 June 2026.

AFFAIRS was last covered on 29 October, with Doozie, Vintage Culture and Lauren Nicole's 'Get Naughty', and 'Copycat' lands as Ibiza and Mykonos move through their high season together.

Yulia Niko placed ONOMA's 'Bom Bom' eighth of 14 on the Melodig Week 20 chart on 3 Jul. The single, filed as Melodic House and Techno, arrived on Go Deeva Records on 3 Jul 2026. Yulia Niko was on the bill at Cova Santa in Ibiza on 10 Jul, for WooMooN, a bill also carrying Viken Arman and Hardt Antoine.

Go Deeva Records was last covered on 16 May, with Simone Vitullo and LIORi's 'White Horse', and 'Bom Bom' is the label's eighth release of 2026, one of eight so far this year, a steady pace kept up through the summer.

'Bom Bom' lands as Ibiza and Mykonos move through their high season together, the same week Yulia Niko takes the stage at Cova Santa for a night built around exactly this kind of sound.

Yør Kultura 'Kvasir' on Permanent Vacation

Permanent Vacation was last covered on 22 October, with Butch's 'Love Is A Glitch', and 'Kvasir' is the label's second release of 2026, one of four so far this year.

The single lands as Lisbon and Berlin move through high summer, a first outing on a label with a small but steady release count this year.

Jay Fase, Dymos & Shizzo, D.J.S. 'One of Those Nights' on Unreleased Records

'One of Those Nights', the new single from Jay Fase, Dymos & Shizzo, D.J.S., lands on Unreleased Records as the label's 18th release of the year, out now.

There's an unhurried, warm feel to the track, with drums leaving ample space around the melodies as they unfold, all delivered at a restrained volume that gives the mix room to breathe without pushing towards peak-time urgency.

The record arrives as Unreleased Records continues a prolific run of releases this year, and 'One of Those Nights' sits comfortably within that catalogue, offering a melodically rich take on the label's sound.
