AZZECCA DROPS NEW SINGLE ‘DISSOLVE’

Ahead Of Hometown Performance at ARC Music Festival

Out Now via Cosimea

Chicago-born producer and DJ Azzecca today releases her new single ‘dissolve’ on her own Cosimea imprint. 

‘dissolve’ is a record defined by persistence. The demo followed Azzecca through years of studio sessions, taking on different forms as she continued returning to the idea and searching for the version that felt complete. That patience ultimately shaped one of her most dimensional productions to date. Buoyant and full-bodied, ‘dissolve’ moves fluidly between Azzecca’s heady house and kaleidoscopic techno, layering hypnotic textures over an insistent groove that pulls the track deeper into the dancefloor.

“‘Ddissolve’ has been worked and reworked into so many different tracks over the past couple of years. I knew it had potential and found myself coming back to it in every studio session. The wait was worth it and I am so happy with the final result.” – Azzecca.

The perseverance behind ‘dissolve’ feels particularly fitting amid a defining year for Azzecca. In April, she made her main lineup debut on Coachella's Yuma stage, then spent the summer expanding her discography with releases on Warehouse Project Records, ATW Records, and Factory93. She also set out on her Extended Sessions Tour, a headline run of 3+ hour sets centered around crate-digging, sonic exploration, and reconnecting with the dancefloor.

‘dissolve’ arrives as the tour comes full circle in Azzecca’s hometown, concluding with her official ARC pre-party at Castaways before she takes The Grid stage at ARC Festival on Friday. Azzecca will also host a pop-up DJ set at Pure Green that morning, featuring a custom flavor and limited-edition sleeve designs available exclusively on September 4.

Stream Azzecca’s new single ‘dissolve’ out now on all platforms.

CARLITA ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM TELEPATHY ARRIVING NOVEMBER 6 VIA NINJA TUNE

SHARES NEW SINGLE “ONE MORE DANCE” 

Turkish-Italian producer, DJ, and multi-instrumentalist Carlita has announced her sophomore album, Telepathy, arriving November 6 via Ninja Tune. The announcement is accompanied by the new single “One More Dance” with Stevie Appleton (one half of duo Collect 200), offering the latest glimpse into a record that widens the scope of Carlita's club-rooted sound through songwriting, production, and an ambitious cast of collaborators.

Telepathy, as Carlita describes it, is "thinking about somebody or something with no attempt at possessing that thing, only for it to come into your life anyway." The album is about the kinds of communication that never get spoken: the invisible thread running between a person and their past, between lovers, between someone and the world around them. The record is feminine, driving and groovy, with a dance-pop subtlety as the throughline across the tracks.

Carlita’s records work like perfume: they return to you later, attached to a person or a memory. Telepathy moves a room but stays with you long after, sitting somewhere between a pop record and a night spent dancing in a smoky basement without compromising either side. The album features contributions from SOFI TUKKER, Justine Skye, Malive, Stevie Appleton, Paige Cavell and Cleo Simone. 

The world around the album was developed with creative director Pedro Damasceno (@pedrose), and the cover and album photographs were shot by photographer Rafael Pavarotti (@rafaelpavarotti_), whose recent work includes Charli xcx, Madonna, Tyla and Addison Rae. The imagery lands between intimacy and editorial finesse. The cover evokes magical realism, leaning into the invisible threads that tie the spaces between what we understand. It extends Carlita's long-running relationship with fashion, pushing a subtle yet idiosyncratic creative universe that follows her last album, Sentimental, and its cover shot by Louis Browne (@louis_browne). 

Carlita has performed for YSL Beauty, collaborated with brands including Louis Vuitton, Chanel and FENDI, and appeared in Vogue Italia, GQ Italia and L’Officiel. Her Senza Fine event series has further brought music, fashion and art together through immersive experiences staged around New York Fashion Week.

Telepathy’s first single, “Patchwork” with Paige Cavell, earned Carlita her first BBC Radio 1 Hottest Record, while “Manhattan,” with SOFI TUKKER, became her first BBC Radio 1 B List record. Together, the releases have marked a significant new chapter for Carlita, carrying her club-rooted sound further into the pop landscape ahead of the album.

1. Intro (Bri Baby Mix)
2. WYWD (with Justine Skye)

The announcement follows Carlita’s busiest touring year to date, with 2026 appearances at Coachella, Sónar, Outside Lands, Tomorrowland, Distortion Copenhagen, DC10 Ibiza, Surf Lodge and Circoloco. Upcoming dates include ARC Music Festival in Chicago, CRSSD in San Diego, Depot Mayfield in Manchester and EDC Colombia in Medellín, alongside headline performances across Europe, North America and Latin America.

Telepathy arrives November 6 via Ninja Tune. “One More Dance” with Stevie Appleton is out now.

KUKO OPENS A NEW PORTAL INTO HIS CREATIVE UNIVERSE WITH TIËSTO’S REMIX OF ‘VOICEMAIL’

KUKO offers another glimpse into his world with Tiësto’s remix of ‘Voicemail’ bringing a fresh perspective to one of his biggest singles.

KUKO reveals a new layer to his world, with Tiësto’s remix of “Voicemail”, welcoming one of the most influential artists in electronic music into his artistic universe. With the record representing a global electronic crossover moment, KUKO continues to bring hard techno to a broader audience without adapting the identity and intensity of the genre.

Built around KUKO’s signature hard techno foundation, Tiësto’s remix of “Voicemail” blends fast-paced kicks with melodic synths, resulting in a high energy dancefloor track. The voicemail sample adds a human and emotional dimension. Like much of KUKO’s work, the track is defined by this tension between brutal sound and a vulnerable emotional core. In “Voicemail”, these elements capture a sense of inner conflict while allowing the listener to experience emotional release.

“From the moment I heard this track I knew I needed to make a Tiësto remix. I loved the atmosphere and mood in it but it was missing the Tiësto feel. Now after remixing it I personally think the record is perfect.” Tiësto explains. The track has already been receiving rave reviews following him debuting it at EDC Las Vegas.

Alongside his relentless musical output, KUKO is currently touring internationally with his All Night Long format which is selling out across multiple cities worldwide. His career has already taken him to some of the world’s biggest stages including Dour, EDC Las Vegas, Kappa FuturFestival, Teletech and Tomorrowland.

Originally released in 2024, “Voicemail” received global success - amassing over six million streams, Tiësto’s 2026 remix creates a generational bridge between global dance legacy and the new hard techno icon KUKO, reflecting a newly shared cultural space between both genres. This remix falls during one of the most ambitious debut album campaigns in European electronic music as KUKO prepares to release CATHARSIS on 25th September.

Tiësto’s remix of “Voicemail” is available now on all streaming platforms.

KUKO is the Cologne-born artist translating hard techno into cinema, fashion, mythology, ritual and mass emotion. His foundation is underground rooms, industrial sound, warehouse culture and hard-music communities. His ambition is bigger than the classic DJ lane. He is building a complete artist system: sound, image, symbols, clothing, physical objects, live ritual, community and cultural positioning. The tension is simple and strong: brutal sound, vulnerable emotional core. That is what separates KUKO from a normal hard-techno act. He is not only scaling shows. He is building belief. He gives the audience something to hear, something to wear, something to collect, something to enter and something to belong to.
