Stylistically, ‘Look Back’ is a return to club form in the vein of previous Beatport number one’s ‘Sweat’ and ‘Lennon’.

Engelhart’s new track Bhajan landed on our SoundCloud a week early, and it didn’t take long for it to get stuck in my head. It’s one of those productions where the simplicity up top hides the attention to detail happening underneath—organic percussion, carefully layered acoustic tones, and a vocal that doesn’t overpower but gives it shape. This is one of those songs that feels designed for repeat plays in the background, but it holds up when you sit down and actually listen.

Dave Leck has been quietly refining his sound for years, balancing a full-time career in software architecture with a steady output of melodic, atmospheric tracks that pull from his love of progressive house. His latest release, Floodgate, out now on Magnetic Magazine Recordings, shows how far that process has taken him—delivering a track that’s equal parts hypnotic and emotionally grounded and feels like a natural extension of his influences but fully shaped through his own lens.

Arjuna Schiks has built a reputation for balancing depth with precision, releasing on labels like Gem Records, Einmusika, and Traum while performing live at venues such as Time Warp Holland and TrouwAmsterdam. His latest release on Manual Deep, Octagon / Apostrophe, continues this approach as both tracks highlight his focus on texture and atmosphere, moving between warm, introspective meldoic lines and more angular percussive elements.

Since their early releases on Playhouse in the 2000s, Rework has carved out a distinctive space in electronic music, blending house, electro, and new wave with a stark, minimalist touch.

Now, with their latest EP, Disco Love, they refine that approach even further.
