CHARLOTTE DE WITTE UNVEILS NEW EP ‘AMOR’ ON KNTXT THREE TRACKER FEAT. BRAZILIAN CERES OUT APRIL 30TH

Charlotte de Witte announces three brand new tracks in the form of her richly resonant EP ‘Amor’, out April 30th on her KNTXT imprint. The vinyl will include an additional Instrumental Mix of her track ‘O Movimento’. 
 
The world's number one techno artist recently celebrated her 15th career anniversary with two monumental Flanders Expo 23k capacity performances, her long-awaited debut album (plus a new Deluxe Edition), and press support from Vogue, Grammy Museum, BBC 6 Music, DJ Mag (with cover), Mixmag, Rolling Stone, Billboard, Zane Lowe, Clash, Flood Magazine (cover).
 
‘Amor’ EP: each track features the breathy, full-toned vocals and Portuguese lyrics of CERES. The Brazilian singer, DJ & producer favours techno with tasty slices of UKG. Add to that, subtle motifs link the three tracks, giving the impression they form a suite. ‘This EP is inspired by my love for Portugal and Brazil, the country, the people, the food, the culture. Made with lots of amor.’ - Charlotte de Witte
 
Title track ‘Amor’ (feat. CERES) delivers a galloping beat starred with spacey FX, as a hoover siren builds tension and CERES begins her rhyming chant. A sprinkle of acid becomes a sulphuric tidal wave. Next, ‘Sem Ar’ (feat. CERES): ‘Airless’; frantic rattling percussion overlays the fast beat to breakbeat-adjacent. CERES’ resonant voice is showcased in an acapella breakdown before her soulful voice becomes an acid robot’s, sharp and penetrating. Finally, ‘O Movimento’ (feat. CERES); ‘Movement/motion’, speeding beat with hi-hat backbeat duels with CERES’ voice, now sounding almost breathless, before acid filters in as the track builds. 
 
New music, alongside massive global shows as de Witte’s 2026 global list of tour dates continues to bloom, including headlining Time Warp Brazil, EDC Las Vegas, We Love Green (Paris), Kappa Futur Festival, Awakenings, Sonar,and more street parties in the making… There’s a lot to love for the year ahead.
 
‘Amor’ is out April 30th on KNTXT. Get it here: https://orcd.co/kntxt033.

SAM DIVINE ANNOUNCES DEBUT IBIZA RESIDENCY FOR 555 AT COVA SANTA

Sam Divine is heading to Ibiza's cult hillside escape, Cova Santa, with her new “555” concept for the first time this summer. The influential house star will host four dates - 13th June, 22nd August, 16th September and 23rd September - in a run that represents both her first headline Ibiza residency and the debut Ibiza outing for 555. 

 

555 has quickly gained momentum since launching earlier this year. Built around a back-to-basics ethos, it focuses on intimate, dancefloor-first experiences, rooted in the spirit of grassroots club culture. Originally launched alongside her single 'The Groove', 555 is both a label and event series shaped by Sam’s desire to reconnect with the foundations of house music. 

 

The concept centres around extended sets, carefully curated lineups and a purist approach to clubbing, often encouraging a no-phone, fully immersive dancefloor environment. 

 

Previous shows across the UK have seen Sam deliver 5-hour, all-night-long sets in smaller venues that reinforce the project’s “always creating, never imitating” philosophy.

 

This summer she takes that spirit to Cova Santa, a mid-size space carved out of ancient Ibiza rock high in the hills, with both outdoor and indoor spaces and a serious sound system for a residency that will see Sam handpick lineups featuring artists from the 555 family and extended peers. Each date is designed to reflect her signature sound while maintaining the intimate, community-driven energy that she thrives on. 

 

A defining figure within house music, Sam Divine has built her career on a deep-rooted passion for the genre. From her early days in Ibiza as part of the Defected street team to becoming one of the label’s most recognisable faces, she has gone on to headline major clubs and festivals worldwide. Her energetic, feel-good sets have taken her to the most celebrated clubs and festivals in the world and she now channels all that experience into a more personal and focused direction with 555.

 

The Ibiza residency marks the next phase for the project, with further international takeovers and label activity planned throughout the year as 555 continues to expand its reach.
