After years of building Indo Warehouse into one of dance music’s most exciting cultural movements, founders Kahani and Kunal Merchant are stepping into a new chapter. The duo has officially announced their upcoming North American tour, bringing their signature blend of South Asian-inspired electronic music to cities across the continent. Since launching Indo Warehouse in New York in 2022, Kahani and Kunal have helped pioneer the rise of “Indo House,” seamlessly weaving South Asian rhythms, melodies, and cultural influences into contemporary house and techno while cultivating a global community around the sound.

What started as intimate warehouse gatherings has since evolved into one of electronic music’s fastest-growing brands. Beyond its acclaimed record label, Indo Warehouse has become known for immersive live experiences that blur the lines between club culture and cultural celebration, with performances spanning North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, and the Middle East. The collective has also appeared at major events including Coachella, Boiler Room, Fabric London, Hï Ibiza, and Day Zero.

While Indo Warehouse has always centered around a broader movement, this tour further cements Kahani and Kunal as artists in their own right. Their productions fuse hypnotic club grooves with folk traditions, cinematic textures, and sounds rooted in the South Asian diaspora, creating records that feel equally at home in warehouses, festivals, and late-night listening sessions. As Indo House continues its rapid rise on the global stage, this latest run feels like another major milestone for the duo and the movement they’ve spent years building.

One of the biggest South Asian breakout records of the past year just got a fresh new spin. Following the viral success of “Pal Pal,” Afusic, Ali Soomro, and Talwiinder have enlisted internationally renowned producer Sickick for an official remix that pushes the track into darker electronic territory. Originally released in 2025, “Pal Pal” steadily became a global favorite across Spotify and social media platforms, finding a home in everything from heartbreak edits to cinematic short-form content. Its emotional songwriting and infectious melodies helped the record resonate far beyond South Asian audiences, setting the stage for a high-profile remix.

Known for his signature “SickHop” style, Sickick transforms the original into a cinematic, club-ready experience while preserving the emotion that made the song connect with so many listeners. Layering atmospheric production, electronic textures, afro-inspired percussion, and the original South Asian vocals, the remix gives “Pal Pal” a fresh identity without losing its heart. “Remixing ‘Pal Pal’ felt really special,” Sickick shared. “Growing up around Bollywood music, I was inspired by the emotion, melodies, and energy that South Asian music carries… I wanted to honor the soul of the original while bringing my own perspective and sound into it.”

The producer also emphasized the remix’s broader message of bringing people together through music, saying he hopes listeners from all backgrounds can connect with the track on the same dance floor. Since its release, the official remix has already amassed more than 600,000 YouTube views, further extending the reach of one of the year’s most impactful crossover records.

RTT-favorite rising producer Lizdek is back with his new album, DUALITY, out now via MONTA Records. Serving as the follow-up to his 2022 mixtape Gemini, the project finds the rising producer exploring the tension between his polished, melodic side and his heavier, more experimental instincts. Drawing from trap, bass, dubstep, shoegaze, rage rap and other electronic influences, the new project pushes across genres while still feeling cohesive. The album features collaborations with ailow, Matt OX, DJ Smokey, Malixe, Oddly Godly, SURF and Yandrel, further highlighting Lizdek’s ability to bridge the worlds of hip-hop and bass music.

The release arrives after a strong run for Lizdek, including his recent collaboration with Habstrakt on Monstercat and continued support for his rework of Skrillex’s “Push.” After building a loyal following through releases on Sable Valley and earning support from artists like Skrillex, RL Grime, Martin Garrix, Marshmello, DJ Snake, Four Tet, NGHTMRE and Space Laces, DUALITY marks another major step forward for one of bass music’s most versatile rising producers.

Some artists spend years trying to find their sound. On Somewhere Along the Way, Lazy Levin sounds like he’s stopped worrying about that entirely. The new EP pulls from dub, reggae, alternative hip-hop, indie rock, and electronic music, but never settles in one place for very long. Instead, the project feels like the product of years spent traveling, collecting influences, and absorbing sounds from different scenes and cultures along the way.

Tracks like “Man in a Van” and “Coconuts” showcase Levin’s knack for infectious songwriting and laid-back grooves, while cuts like “WBAKNB” and “Neurospicy” lean into heavier percussion and hypnotic electronic rhythms. Elsewhere, “Super Skank” injects a dose of punk energy into the mix, further highlighting the project’s refusal to be boxed into a single genre. What’s most impressive about Somewhere Along the Way is how naturally all of these influences coexist. There are traces of Gorillaz, The Clash, and classic sound system culture scattered throughout the EP, but the project never feels like it’s borrowing from any one source. Instead, Levin shapes those inspirations into something distinctly his own.

For listeners familiar with his work in the global psychedelic electronic scene, the EP feels like an expansion rather than a departure. The dancefloor energy is still there, but it’s now joined by stronger songwriting, personal storytelling, and a broader musical palette. The result is a project that feels adventurous without trying too hard to be experimental, packed with memorable hooks, dub-heavy grooves, and the kind of lived-in character that can’t be manufactured.

There are plenty of concept albums out there. Elaine Walker’s MACROCHIP is something a little harder to categorize. Described by the electronic music pioneer as a “mini-movie album,” the eight-track project blends music and visual storytelling into a series of interconnected sci-fi adventures. Rather than creating songs first and adding visuals later, Walker developed both simultaneously, resulting in what she calls a “Synema Song” – a format where the music, characters, and narrative evolve together as a single work.

Across the album, listeners are introduced to a world of robots, aliens, astronauts, cosmic rescue missions, and alternate realities. Each track functions as its own chapter, blurring the line between electronic music release and science fiction anthology. One of the project’s most distinctive qualities comes from Walker’s use of the Bohlen-Pierce Scale, a rare microtonal tuning system that gives the album its unmistakably otherworldly sound. A longtime pioneer of xenharmonic music, Walker has spent decades exploring alternative tuning systems, and MACROCHIP stands as one of her most ambitious efforts to date.

The visual side of the project is equally intentional. Rather than relying on generative AI, Walker built the album’s cinematic world entirely from licensed, human-created stock footage, carefully editing each scene to match the music and story. For those familiar with her work, MACROCHIP feels like a natural extension of a career spent at the intersection of music, science, technology, and imagination. Part album, part film series, and part science fiction experiment, MACROCHIP is available now and can be streamed below via YouTube.

Staten Island artist Zy Smoke is proving that some of the most compelling stories in music aren’t built overnight. The 22-year-old independent artist has steadily built a growing audience through deeply personal songwriting, earning more than 20,000 monthly Spotify listeners without the support of a major label. Drawing inspiration from artists like Tupac, Kanye West, Rod Wave, and Chance the Rapper, Zy Smoke’s music blends vulnerability, resilience, and lived experience into records that resonate far beyond his hometown of Mariners Harbor.

His latest release, “Night Shift Halo,” continues that trajectory. The track explores the unseen work that goes into personal growth and artistic ambition, pairing themes of perseverance and faith with a reflective, emotionally charged performance. According to Zy Smoke, the title represents the balance between late-night hustle and the spiritual guidance that has helped him navigate some of life’s most difficult chapters. Despite balancing music with a full-time job and handling much of his career independently, Zy Smoke remains focused on building something lasting. With a growing catalog, an expanding audience, and a clear artistic vision, “Night Shift Halo” serves as another step forward for one of Staten Island’s emerging voices.

At just 23 years old, New Zealand drum & bass star Rova is continuing his rapid ascent with the release of Undisputed, a six-track EP that showcases the next chapter of his evolution as a producer. Built around a boxing-inspired concept, the new project positions each track as a different round in the fight, highlighting Rova’s versatility while staying firmly rooted in his signature high-energy drum & bass sound. The project includes previously released singles “OCTANE,” “SEE U WORK,” and his collaboration with A Little Sound, “LOW DOWN,” alongside three new tracks that push his sound in fresh directions.

The release arrives amid a breakout run for the young producer – Rova has earned support from BBC Radio 1’s Charlie Tee and Jack Saunders, UKF, and George FM, while collaborations with Grafix and 1991 have further elevated his profile within the scene.

Following the launch of her 4ever Music imprint with “BADBOYS,” Toronto-based DJ/producer Zorza returns with “ONEBODY,” a collaboration with Belgian duo Promis3 out now via 4ever Music / Universal Music Group Canada.

Where the label’s debut leaned into raw, high-impact energy, “ONEBODY” turns more introspective, pairing driving hard-dance production with layered melodies and stacked vocals. The result is a track that balances festival-ready intensity with a more reflective emotional core.

Lyrically, the single explores distance, memory, and the lingering presence of relationships in a hyper-digital world, where endings rarely feel complete, and connection continues through feeds and digital traces.

“It exists in that post-internet space where ending a relationship no longer means someone disappears,” Promis3 explain, while Zorza frames the track around the challenge of maintaining connection while constantly on the move.

Continuing her genre-blurring approach to club music, Zorza fuses techno, trance, and hyperpop-adjacent energy into a sound that feels equally built for peak-time sets and late-night reflection.

TroyBoi has teamed up once again with Toxic Rob for their latest collaboration, “Way Better,” a groove-heavy record that blends hip-hop swagger with the producer’s signature bass-driven sound. Built around weighty percussion, deep low-end, and a laid-back bounce, the track gives Toxic Rob’s vocals plenty of room to shine. Rather than relying on an oversized drop, TroyBoi keeps the production clean and intentional, creating a rhythm-focused record that feels equally suited for headphones and the dancefloor.

The release follows the pair’s previous collaboration “DHUNGA,” which is approaching 2 million Spotify streams and showcased the chemistry that continues on “Way Better.” Beyond its club-ready energy, the track also carries a message of persistence and self-belief. Through its lyrics and overall tone, “Way Better” reflects on trusting the process, pushing through setbacks, and staying focused on long-term growth. With another strong collaboration under their belt, TroyBoi and Toxic Rob prove once again that sometimes less is more.
