Unknown Territory welcomes Yeni for her debut EP on the label. After her great track ‘Hypergalaxa’ on our Compilation 004 release, she now provides them with 2 hypnotic, dark bangers. Complimented by a great remix my German techno powerhouse Alex Bau.
Following on from his well-received Bridges album, Sven Tasnadi’s fantastic originals now get remixed by a select crew of artists that includes new and familiar label associates alike. They are Detlef, Dario D’Attis, Dirty Doering and Harry Romero, and they all inject plenty of fresh ideas into the source material.
Detlef has already made his mark on Moon Harbour with various remixes and originals dating back to 2013. Here he superbly twists ‘My Soul’ into a deep-down jam with fiery vocals popping right off. Loose percussion brings more energy and the whole thing is a standout cut that oozes personality.
Swiss master Dario D’Attis is another longtime mainstay of the scene who impresses with his always emotive sounds. He appeared on the label in 2018 with his Tribe Chant EP and here works ‘Make It Right’ into a playful number with big vocals and loopy drums that suck you in over and over. It’s a filter jam full of suspense and is one to ignite the sunnier dance floors out there.
Berlin veteran Dirty Doering has known Sven Tasnadi since school, now runs the KATERMUKKE label and was long involved both behind the scenes and as a DJ at Bar 25. He draws on all his years of experience to come up with a version of ‘String Rebirth’ that is drawn-out and intoxicating, with late night melody and stylish synth work bending space and time and casting a real spell on you.
Harry Romero is a US dance legend who has been laying down chunky tracks for decades. The Subliminal associate is in fine form here as he reworks ‘Keep Da Shit’ into a turbocharged cut with dark bass down low and raw, chattering percussion up top. It’s the sort of tension building then explosive main room weapon that is destined for huge things this season.
These are four fine reworks from a typical on point selection of artists by Moon Harbour.
Delving into tribal more techy realms, the unstoppable Flashmob Records imprint welcomes ANEK production team with two original cuts straddling the boundaries of house and techno, filled with glacial atmosphere, moody melodics and serious dance floor drive. Steaming in with a powerful pumping bass and dense, mischievous drums, title track High Life is a tech-house dream of the highest stature. New Vibes drips echo in the deep waters, while pacey percussions soon creep into the mix, rolling a tight and trippy rhythm. Great remix effort by Chicks Luv Us on the leading track dragging it into a drums synposium.

Darling is powerful with a raw groove and a dark yet almost ethereal synth section and a vocal hook that will play repeatedly in your head. Rich NxT adds his unmistakable sound to the track, distorting the vocal and adding a full-power, after-hours bounce to the bass complete with a woozy, synth-led break-down.
With over a decade in the business, Basti Grub has forged a solid reputation for himself with his output. Unafraid of experimentation, he expertly fuses together traditional instruments with modular synths.

We welcome Huxley at our artist roster and look forward to a successful cooperation (for Germany, Austria, Switzerland).
As a DJ, Huxley is someone as comfortable headlining a vast festival stage as he is holding down a small and sweaty basement. He does so from Africa to Australia and is the sort of selector who always delivers a slick, high impact dose of the good stuff. Over the last seven plus years, the friendly character has excelled at many different styles, often ahead of the curve. He does well swung drums as well as bass, main room house and deeper, musically accomplished offerings that stir real emotion.
