Koven - bloOdliNEs
Read more . . . →Koven have been one of those acts where I keep hearing about them before fully paying attention, and then I actually sit with a track and go, okay, I get it now. bloOdliNEs is melodic DnB but with genuine tension running through it — the kind that makes you feel like something is about to go wrong even when everything sounds beautiful. The vocals don’t feel decorative here; they carry actual weight. There’s something unsettling about how pretty the build is before the drop hits. Koven write music that sounds like it should be on a soundtrack for something much...

Salesforce Replaced the Engineers. The Salespeople Are Fine.
Read more . . . →Salesforce didn’t hire a single engineer last year. Not one. Marc Benioff — $145 billion company, personal net worth north of $10 billion — stood up and told the world that AI handles the coding now, so why pay humans to do it? Productivity’s up 30%, he said, clearly pleased with himself. Zero new engineers in fiscal year 2026. That’s the headline he volunteered. That’s the thing he thought was worth bragging about. But here’s what he made sure to mention in the same breath: sales is booming. Nearly 20% more salespeople hired. Because someone still needs to walk into...

Kaizen - Wreker Cauze
Read more . . . →Trap Nation find. Kaizen with a track that sounds like its title — deliberately misspelled, deliberately heavy, probably intentionally annoying to people who only listen to deep house. The intentional-damage energy is real.

Sustance - Take Cover
Read more . . . →Two Sustance tracks on Shogun in the same drop. “Take Cover” is more aggressive than “Loving You” — same artist, different mode. The range is impressive. More like this Sustance - Loving You Sustance - Dub Special w/ Mad Sam Sustance - Digital Waveband Buy / stream this track →

Josh One vs Salomé Le Chat - Contemplation (King Britt Funke Remix)
Read more . . . →The title alone should get you in the mood. King Britt doing a funke remix of something called Contemplation — that’s a very specific vibe and it delivers exactly what it promises. Josh One vs Salomé Le Chat is already an interesting pairing on its own, but King Britt’s remix takes the original somewhere deeper. This is Defected doing what Defected does best — finding house tracks with genuine soul and giving them to the right people to make them something else entirely. The groove in this is the kind you don’t notice until you’re already moving. There’s an organ...

Sustance - Loving You
Read more . . . →Sustance on Shogun Audio. The label has been putting out quality neurofunk for 20 years and “Loving You” fits right in. Misleadingly tender name for something that hits this hard.
