Review: Austrian DJ, producer, and Freeride Millenium label co-founder Jorkes makes an electrifying debut on Will Saul's label with this fast-paced house roller. As if fuelled by the sound of Chicago and something evocative of a place like the Hacienda, "Free From Desire" is a red-hot burner slamming down killer drum beats, irresistible piano chimes and bubbling bass - that's as much Manchester as it is the Musik Box.

Review: The summer of rave has landed and Demuja is here with Higher Places, a producer found on imprints like Skylax Classic, Shall Not Fade, Freerange and more. For his Aus Music debut he brings back a familiar rave motif to a banging new rendition of drums in "Work My Body". Next is a deeper, liquid club cut that is "Deep Inside Your Soul" with its classic pano effect while Demuja pays house music homage with "That Piano Track" - obviously. Closing the EP is a collaborative number with Kolter called "Bonzai" that's peppered with a techier and minimal sound, let's say from that Higher Place.

Review: Following the release of her Aus music debut last year with the I Wanted More EP, rRoxymore returns to Will Saul's label with At Dawn. Blending colourful synthesises of keys and chords alongside cut up vocals and drifting melancholic atmospheres, it the artist's mellow breaks that hit just right. The lead cut is perhaps the deepest number on offer with its sombre tone, subtle bleeps and trancey flirtations, next to the heavier kicks and counterbalancing floating melodies of "Blissed Memories". "Beyond The Sun" is arguably this release's hit cut, as if referencing Caribou's most loved song. A stand out Aus Music title.

Review: Some genuinely impressive collaborative action here, as Berlin-based label hopper Amy Dabbs (whose previous releases have appeared on labels including Lobster Theremin and Shall Not Fade) joins forces with Toy Tonics twosome Athlete Whippet for the very first time. Opener 'Deep In Your Love' manages that tricky feat of being upbeat, grandiose and wonderfully loved-up, with Dabbs' vocal snippets peeping out above simmering strings, colourful electronic motifs, rubbery synth-bass and rolling house beats. 'Into You' is a dreamier and more spine-tingling affair that's as loved-up and groovy as they come, while closing cut 'Milkshake' is a colossal, hands-aloft piano house number that sounds like something that would have crossed over into the pop charts back in the mid 1990s.

Review: This prolific British producer has been known by a number of names: Marquis Hawkes or Juxta Position to name a couple, but here he steps out under his real name for the latest release on the esteemed Aus Music. Venn Diagram is Mark Hawkins' third long-player which features a wide selection of experimental moods. Highlights include the sublime IDM opener "Verblex Oscillos", the slo-mo Italo of "How Do I Know" and its stunning vocal, through to the neon-lit pop tones of L.O.V.E., while there's more straight-ahead dancefloor friendly numbers like "Isolated" and ending with the glassy-eyed and bittersweet electronica of "Alone In My Kitchen".

Review: Over a 30-year career, Steve Bug has released an incredible amount of club-focused music, much of it genuinely brilliant. Given that he's successfully turned his hand to deep house, tech-house, hip-house and techno, it's always a bad idea to and guess what he'll serve up next. So, what's on offer on 'Piano FM', his second EP for Aus Music? A real mixture of peak-time ready cuts, that's what. For proof, compare, and contrast the foreboding bass, glassy-eyed female vocal snippets, bouncy pianos and snappy beats of 'Piano FM', with the deeper but no less weighty 'The Moment', where raw analogue bass and jazzy stabs catch the ear. To complete a fine EP, the long-serving German producer opts for a classic US deep house vibe on the warming and loved-up 'Use Me'.

Review: Following releases on Central Processing Unit, Hypercolour, and his recent LP on Local Action, Evan Majumdar-Swift aka 96 Back returns with a new one this week - adding a release on Will Saul's Aus Music to his expanding discography. For his label debut, the Manchester by-way-of SheffieldDJ/producer presents four high quality productions on the Crass EP. From the off-kilter post-dubstep influence of the title track and the wonky UK flavour of "Syrup", to further futuristic bass explorations in the form of "Tab Play" and the evocative closer "Hoss I"t which ends on a more playful note - 96 Back embodies the renegade spirit of his native Steel City.

Review: The German house & techno DJ and music producer Damiano Von Erckert pretty much bucks every trend and trope you can imagine. He makes loose, dusty house music with heart-on-sleeve emotions even though he hails from Cologne, where sleek techno label Kompakt also hails from. He also dresses much more like a 60s French film star than a modern DJ and producer. Anyway, his new album on Aus is his best yet - it's got the loose-limbed and soulful house jams and the blissed out and deep rollers but also some more cosmic forays into smooth techno and spangled disco.

Review: Cinthie Christl has released some of her most potent, club-ready material on Aus Music, not least terrific debut album City Lights. Her latest EP for the imprint - her first for nearly two years - is another strong effort that harks back to the halcyon days of house music in the 1990s. Lead cut 'Light a Fire' is particularly nostalgic, with Christl peppering a classic-sounding bassline and shuffling deep house drums in spacey, stretched-out chords and echo-laden piano riffs. She reaches for bold, ear-catching riffs on the bumpin', stabbing bassline-sporting headiness of 'Keeping Strong', before opting for a deeper, more sub-heavy sound on the hypnotic, glassy-eyed excellence of 'Everything'.

Review: Life & Death chief Manfredi Romano aka DJ Tennis makes a surprising appearance on Aus Music this week with a wonderful three-tracker. "Repeater" is a slinky and hypnotic expression in dancefloor drama, this is melodic house just the way we like it. It's backed by second offering "Nobody" an evocative and saucer-eyed breakbeat number that makes a perfect soundtrack to the inevitable sunrise. On the remix is the ever reliable Swede DJ Seinfeld whose dark and steely techno rendition gives the track an undeniably aggressive edge.

Review: Following the release of his gloriously joyous, retro-futurist Sanctuary EP on Hot Haus Records, former Houndstooth regular Mark Hawkins returns to Aus Music with another quietly impressive four-track outing. He first joins the dots between loopy, DJ Sneak style deep house and sparkling, hands-aloft piano house on the festival friendly rush of 'I Can Feel It (Extended Mix)', before reaching for vintage style synthesiser chords and undulating acid bass on the gorgeous 'What a Beat'. 'Led Astray' sees him break up the beats impressively while soothing the senses with sci-fi synths and Motor City bass, while 'Lucid Dreaming' sees him add energetic piano riffs and glassy-eyed techno bleeps to a surging, peak-time ready rhythm.

Review: Earth Trax follows his recent Sensual World album on Shall Not Fade with this tripped out release on Aus. Steeped in the sound of electro and deep techno, it sees the prolific producer deliver a series of impressive tracks. Never staying in one place for too long, Earth Trax moves from the dark and moody rhythms of "Swamp" and "Disintegration" into the title track, whose emotive melodies and skipping drums sounds like Lone jamming with Nathan Fake. Earth Trax continues on this sun-kissed melodic trajectory for "Moving On", albeit in a more frenetic mode, while "Meadows" sees him give vent to a slower, dreamy side to his canon.

Review: On her first outing of 2022, Hermoine Frank brings her rRoxymore project to Aus Music for the very first time. The sometime Don't Be Afraid regular eases us gently with EP opener 'Drunken Clouds', an effortlessly picturesque affair in which chiming, chocolate box melodies and sustained organ chords dance atop a drunken, analogue-sounding bassline and skewed hip-hop beats. She strides confidently back onto the dancefloor on title track 'I Wanted More', adding sweet R&B vocal snippets, hazy chords and marimba melodies to a rumbling bassline and breakbeat-driven deep house beats, before often for a decidedly intergalactic, off-kilter sound on the excellent 'Midnight Shift'. To round off a fine EP, Frank goes ultra-deep, poignant and melancholic on the impressively emotive 'Last Day I Dance'.

Review: Aus Music is now one of the elder statesmen of the underground after so many years of turning out fresh beats from fresh names. Taking charge of Will Saul's latest label drop is Glaswegian artist Big Miz. His opener 'Fools Mate' is an upbeat and lively tune with slinky bass and drums that are in constant upward motion. 'Still Deciding' (feat Washington) flips the script with a low slung groove that has swagger to spare, not least thanks to the vocals of Washington. There is still time for a raw drum workout in 'Earthly Delights', the lush melodies of 'Joey' and a pumping throwback house remix from Sally C.

Review: Marco Passarani presents his sixth LP, this time on Aus Music titled The Wildlife Of The Quieter Ones, boasting 17 diverse tracks that are testament to the Roman's versatility as a producer. Whether it's the majestic acid of "Theme From FFOM", the contemplative IDM of "Dial 101" or the hi-tech soul of "Equation" - he has much more to offer. There's the alien funk of "Complex Beta" and the bittersweet bright-like-neon closer "Strawberry Strings" showing the diversity in his sonic repertoire, plus many intermittent ambient journeys to break up the mood. Passarani manages to respectfully join the dots between the fabled Detroit-Berlin connection, classic electro and Italo on this top shelf selection of tracks - all from a truly underrated veteran of the genre.

Review: Here's something we didn't expect: an EP of deep house and house-not-house excursions from Quantic, a multi-talented artist and producer best known for dazzling musicality, downtempo grooves, retro-futurist soul songs and distinctly tropical musical blends. Of course, he's talented enough to turn his hand to almost any style so this surprise Aus Music outing is as excellent as we'd hoped it would be. Highlights include the old school house-goes-broken house rush of 'Heaven or Hell', the deep and dreamy broken beat warmth of 'Night Jaguars', the wall-of-sound house warmth of 'Shake Your Demons' and the sub-heavy, steel pan-sporting, mid-tempo tropical house brilliance of 'Let The Sparks Fly'.

The Hotflush boss now presents the Talaria EP featuring three emotive tracks for the late night. Be mesmerised by the rich tapestry of melodies that will captivate you on the title track's tech house groove, while "Rip" returns to the emotive post dubstep sounds as heard on his seminal Triangulations release from over a decade ago. Finally, the deep and contemplative mood music of "Arrows" offers up a more understated side of the esteemed producer.

Review: Millionhands founder Tee Mango (real name Tom Mangan) has developed a lot as a producer since he first appeared on Aus Music in 2017. That much is evident on his latest four-track excursion for Will Saul's imprint, which sees Mangan deliver a quartet of fuzzy, nostalgia-inducing workouts guaranteed to make you move. He sets his stall out with 'Last Dance', a chunk of colourful, piano-laden positivity built around crackly drums and rush-inducing riffs, before delivering instrumental and vocal takes on the mid-tempo, lo-fi, deep house delight that is the yearning 'Heartbeat'. To round things off, the former T-shirt designer opts for a baggier, sunnier and more huggable sound on delicious closing cut 'Can We Find'.

Review: Outsider house specialist Sei A has delivered some of Aus Music's most potent releases of the last half-decade, including two fine albums. Universal Love, his first release of 2021, is also impressive. It sees the Glasgow-based artist shuffle between bleary-eyed, early morning house hypnotism ('Open Spaces', where Tangerine Dream style synthesizer lines and stirring chords bubble away atop a locked-in beat), heavily electronic dancefloor melancholia ('Balance'), ultra-wonky, sub-heavy minimalism (the crackling fuzziness of 'The Other Side Of'), spaced-out sunrise deep house ('Warm'), and rolling, warehouse-ready fare ('Universal Love', where spoken word vocals and tactile synth riffs catch the ear).

Review: Last year, Damiano Von Erckert graduated from the Ava label he's been associated with since 2011 and joined the extended family of artists at Will Saul's Aus Music imprint. Here he returns to that label with a second EP full to bursting with playable, peak-time ready treats. Particularly impressive is opener 'Mars', a deep house-tempo slab of sci-fi fired dancefloor futurist full of star fall electronics, lilting lead lines and intergalactic synthesizer motifs. Title track 'Pete' is more of a retro-futurist affair, with glassy-eyed female vocal samples, immersive ambient house chords and rising string sounds stretching out atop loose-limbed machine drums and a throbbing bassline, while 'F&D' joins the dots between jacking acid house, ambient techno and Motor City futurism.

Review: 'City Lights' was one of the standout cuts from Cinthie Christl's 2020 debut album Skylines - City Lights, so it's no surprise to see it appear as a single with a swathe of brand-new mixes. The original version, which kicks off the EP, is little less than a synthesizer symphony, with rising synth-strings dancing atop a mid-80s, arpeggio-style synth-pop bassline and Please-era Pet Shop Boys beats. Gerd Janson utilises many of these elements on his Tuff City Kids style Italo-disco rework, before Damino von Eckert re-frames it as a melodious chunk of synth-heavy techno warmth. Perhaps best of all though is the Wanderist remix, which brilliantly re-imagines the track as a bustling slab of deep space electro with a Kraftwerkian twist.

Review: When it comes to delivering deliciously intergalactic house and techno, few can match the sci-fi sounds, lilting lead lines, darting synth sounds and hypnotic beats of Jack Hamill AKA Space Dimension Controller. His trademark sound is naturally evident throughout his first EP for Aus Music. He begins with the deep, cosmic techno of 'Dispatch477', where bubbly acid bass, bustling drums and deep chords combine on an energetic-but-weightless sci-fi treat. 'Upper/Lower' is similarly deep and woozy but arguably more musically expansive, while closing cut 'Polymer Pyramid' sees him wrap drowsy, ambient techno style sustained chords and yearning synthesizer lead lines around a fizzing analogue bassline and snappy machine drums.

Review: Maarten Smeets, one half of Detroit Swindle, introduces his Wanderist project through Aus Music, and vice-versa. It presents a second record for Smeets on Aus (see the Rhythm Girl Swing EP) with the Wanderist project setting itself up as a place for electro breaks, acid and new age synths ("Translucid Dreams") to funky, stripped-back and pacey vocal house numbers ("Machines Have Feelings Too"). A minimal yet harder techno groove arrives in the pumping drum track "U Got Love" (tip) next to the sundrenched trance-ala-house music of "Astral Highways"!

Review: Late last year, Dutch duo Lars Dale and Maarten Smeets decided the time was right to ditch their Detroit Swindle moniker - chosen originally in tribute to Motor City dance music, but one that left them open to accusations of cultural appropriation - in favour of Dam Swindle. This three-tracker for Aus marks their first outing under the new alias and begins with one of their warmest and most ear-catching cuts to date: the Nikki O-voiced vocal deep house number 'Breathe', which boasts some brilliant live bass, twinkling Rhodes flourishes and atmospheric synth-strings. Title track 'Spice Run' is arguably even better thanks to bouncy, Afro-house style percussion, carnival-ready electric piano riffs and synthesized steel pan, while 'Get Together' is a drowsy and deep disco-house number laden with live instrumentation.

Review: Berlin-based Haider Masroor made his Aus Music debut with the '10961' EP in 2019. Now he returns to Will Saul and Fink's label with another three-tracker that defies easy genre categorisation. 'Levitate', for instance, starts out epic and proggy but then breaks out into a kind of EBM/Italo/industrial fusion interlude in the middle, while 'Too Close' has echoes of Orb-style ambient house, hardcore, two-step and the kitchen ruddy sink! The standout, though, is 'Why So Blue?', a moody, broody but irresistible order to dance in which delicate, haunting keys and cut-up female vocal snips surf a surging, pulsating bassline to devastating effect.

Review: Will Saul and Fink's Aus Music label have always operated at or around house music's more leftfield fringes, and this three-tracker from Damiano Von Erckert - a Cologne native who's now based in France - is no exception. 'My Belief, Your Disaster' builds from a space-y, bass-y intro into a small-hours cocktail of twitchy drums and cascading keys, while 'Tears For You' is a pulsating, synthy cut that'd work on 'deep' and 'melodic' floors alike - as would 'Dramatic Romance', wherein a synth bassline throbs throughout, topped with constantly evolving leads. Adrenaline-rush podium stompers these are not, but if you need material for those 4am "journeys" then step right on in.

Review: In case you didn't get the memo, Wanderist is the new solo alias of Maarten Smeets, one half of popular Dutch deep house duo Detroit Swindle. This debut EP under the alias sets out his sonic agenda, offering a few reminders of what many enjoy about his better-known act's work - rich musicality, warm vibes, and positive melodies - while also exploring a different set of electronic music inspirations. The headline attraction is arguably '2r2t', a wonderfully tactile and melodious chunk of loved-up electro warmth that comes accompanied by a wavy ambient revision (lusciously saucer-eyed) and an acid-flecked Dawud remix that joins the dots between sci-fi techno and intergalactic deep house. Elsewhere, '9005' is a dark, muscular and hazy techno roller and 'Fog' is an analogue-rich take on spacey '80s electro.

Review: Sei A aka Andy Graham follows 2016's Space in your Mind long player with this expansive project. Once again, he has chosen Aus as the outlet for his work, with Will Saul's label providing him with the platform to deliver his distinctive take on dance music. Underpinned by dream-like textures, Kinetic Action unravels at an unhurried pace; there's the layered ambience of "Random Rules"; the muggy, seductive break-beat led "Halo" and "High", a dubbed out house groove. Graham's production throughout the album is flawless, which allows him to move effortlessly between languid pieces like "Foundation" and more urgent, break beat tracks like "Forget Now".

Review: Given that she has been releasing music since the dawn of the century, we were rather surprised to find that "Skylines-Citylights" is Cinthie Christl's debut album. It is of course something of a vibrant, action-packed treat, with the long-serving DJ, producer, label boss and record shop owner combining elements from a multitude of interconnected genres (think Chicago house, ambient house, UK garage, acid, electronic disco, piano house and rave-era old school flavours) to create a string of timeless, joyous cuts. Highlights are plentiful and include - but are no way limited to - the glassy-eyed bliss of "808 The Meme Queen", the sub0heavy sweatiness of "Concentrate", the warehouse-ready future anthems "Bassline" and "Calling", and the hard-to-pigeonhole brilliance of stunning opener "Skyline".

Review: New York's disco, noise and electro don The Juan Maclean is back and makes his debut on Aus Music. Pushing a perceivably harder edged or club focused sound for Will Saul's label, Juan Mac turns in three numbers that explore deeper techno, trance and Italo alongside progressive new age disco (and New York soul) that goes all the way in "Outriders Of Planet Shulgin". For the Italo, deeper techno head (with hints of indie sub-pop too) "Here In The Twilight" goes the distance alongside the electrified nu-disco of "Harmine". Wild card alert on this record also o with a remix coming from Whities upstart "Nathan Micay" with a tough, dubbed out and warehouse mix to an epic title track.
