ALPHA 9 RETURNS TO DREAMSTATE RECORDS WITH “WARNING LIGHTS” SINGLE

ALPHA 9, the concept-driven cosmic trance project spearheaded by acclaimed producer ARTY, returns to Dreamstate Records with “Warning Lights”, the third single of his ongoing 2026 release series. A progressive trance transmission steeped in cinematic suspense, the track advances the story of ALPHA 9, a genetically engineered, AI-powered government asset who returns to Earth to discover the planet on the verge of destruction; and that he may hold the key to its salvation.

 Driven by celestial arpeggios, organ-laced builds and thunderous synth sequences, “Warning Lights” unfolds like the soundtrack to an impending planetary emergency. The instrumental gradually intensifies as layers accumulate, transforming its atmospheric opening into a full-scale sonic code red as ALPHA 9 confronts the fate of humanity.

“Warning Lights” continues the evolving narrative introduced through ALPHA 9’s previous Dreamstate Records releases, “Dark Matter” and “Ascend.” The first two chapters earned coverage from EDM Tunes, Trance Attack, Midnight Dance Music, Just a Wee Music Blog, Frontview Magazine, Find Your Sounds, Radio and Music, Drop Times, Party Time Magazine, Beat for Beat and Perspective, while drawing radio support from Armin van Buuren, Andrew Rayel, Markus Schulz, AVIRA, DIM3NSION, JES and Farius.

The release also expands ALPHA 9’s immersive storytelling universe beyond the music itself. The episodic series will be accompanied by custom A9 journal entries, offering fans a deeper look into the developing narrative and the voyager’s mission, alongside a special ALPHA 9 DJ Mix that further explores the project's cosmic trance soundscape.

ALPHA 9 will continue bringing the project to audiences onstage with upcoming performances at Dreamstate SoCal and EDC Thailand.

KIMONOS AND AMOUR PROPRE DEBUT ON NU MODA WITH TWO-TRACK RELEASE “THE CITY / ALL I WANT”

Miami-based producer duo KIMONOS and French electronic duo Amour Propre make their debut on Max Styler’s Nu Moda with their new two-track single “The City / All I Want”, bringing together two distinct takes on groove-driven electronic music. The release finds the two duos merging their respective worlds across tech house, indie dance, and melodic club music.

 Lead track “The City” takes a fierce, club-ready approach to tech house, built around a street-hardened rap vocal hook that gives the record its unmistakable attitude. Sharp percussive loops and menacing buzzsaw rolls drive the production forward, reinforced by fast-attacking rave stabs, murky arpeggiations, gritty hoover fills, and punch vocal chops. The result is a dark, high-impact club cut that pulls from indie dance while maintaining the rhythmic precision and energy of contemporary tech house.

“All I Want” offers another dimension of the collaboration, bringing the two duos’ shared affinity for melody and emotion into focus. Together, the two–track release captures the chemistry between KIMONOS and Amour Propre, whose connection began online before evolving into an exchange of demos, and eventually, a collaborative studio process.

Operating from Miami, KIMONOS are a producer duo composed of Gabriel Falanga and Omri Malka, establishing an increasingly global presence through their distinctive blend of house and techno. Their dynamic sound moves between groovy and melodic productions and darker, club-focused territory, drawing from melodic techno, and indie dance. The duo broke out with their 2019 single “En Su Lugar,” which has amassed more than 62 million streams, and have since released music alongside Ugo Banchi, Josh Gigante, and Sounds of Ritual, while delivering remixes for Samson, The Archer, and RÜFÜS DU SOL. They have a headline show at Members LA, and a show in Tokyo.

French duo Amour Propre, composed of Sami Benjelloun and Clément Guigou, have developed an emotionally charged sound informed by the legacy of French Touch, indie dance, and tech house. Their catalog includes EPs and releases on Rose Avenue (RÜFÜS DU SOL’s label), Diynamic, Abracadabra, Warner UK, and Universal, while their music has received  repeat support from BBC Radio 1 and been championed by Adriatique, Swedish House Mafia, Innellea, Black Coffee, Nora En Pure, Eli & Fur, Damian Lazarus, Cassian, Massano, and WhoMadeWho. To coincide with the release, they are embarking on their debut US Tour around the release, including three sets at Burning Man, and shows in Los Angeles, Miami, and San Francisco.

“We’re really excited to finally share this release. We’ve put a lot of energy and passion into it, and we can’t wait for everyone to hear it and make it their own.” - KIMONOS

“This EP is the result of months of friendship and musical connection between Amour Propre and Kimonos. Both duos have been playing together for a long time, and a collaborative EP felt like the natural next step.” - Amour Propre

LEWIS TAYLOR RETURNS TO FACTORY 93 RECORDS WITH EP ‘IN MY HOUSE’

Rising British producer Lewis Taylor returns to Factory 93 Records with his new three-track ‘In My House’ EP, out today. Following his recent single on the label, the EP finds the 25-year-old producer refining his approach to groove-driven house with three tracks built specifically for the dancefloor.

 The title track “In My House” leads the EP with a groovy, high-energy house cut that blends classic club euphoria with contemporary UKG and minimal influences. Built around an instantly memorable vocal hook, pumping basslines and crisp drum programming, the track layers bright organ stabs, high-pitched padlines and retro synth fills into a polished, dancefloor-focused arrangement. It follows “No Matter”, the EP’s lead single, which sets the tone with Taylor’s knack for balancing driving house grooves with detailed melodic and rhythmic elements.

Across all three tracks, ‘In My House’ showcases Taylor’s club-oriented approach to production while exploring different layers to his sound. Drawing inspiration from his experiences at parties across Europe, the EP moves through a range of house textures while maintaining an emphasis on movement and energy.

At just 25 years old, Lewis Taylor is quickly becoming one of the UK’s most talked-about emerging house artists. A DJ/producer from North East England, Taylor has built momentum through releases on Up The Stuss, ATW, and Tessalate, while developing his sound under the direct mentorship of Chris Stussy as this year’s scholarship artist.

He’s earned a multitude of tastemaker support on the EP from Luke Slater, Joseph Capriati, Jamie Jones, Paco Osuna, Marco Carola, Malugi, Eliza Rose, LP Giobbi, Mat.Joe, Silva Bumpa, Ilario Alicante, Y U QT, Peggy Gou, Adriatique, Damian Lazarus, and Anna Lunoe.

“The EP was built and curated with the club as the main focus in every step. I am excited to showcase some new layers to my sound and to get these 3 tracks out into the world.

The In My House EP embodies a heavily club focused take on my sound. Drawing inspiration from personal influences and experiences when at parties across Europe, each track symbolises a different layer. Factory 93 feels like the perfect home for these tracks and I can’t wait to share them with the world!” - Lewis Taylor
