Three of the world’s most experienced and fastest rising DJs – Mishaal Alireza, Mete Aslan, Edwin Matos – join forces to lead the way with renowned mixes and unforgettable live sets as Vinyl Disciples.

Brightside offer a creative synth soundscape for blissful escapism, an eighties-style, addictive beat, and a song that connects for its intimate and quietly affectionate nature.
Featuring a mildly cinematic, softly tribal yet comforting soundscape and rhythm, the single showcases a unique meeting between production and voice.

Stylishly blending the bounce of dancehall, with a Sia-inspired build-up and melodic embrace, Anna Cole’s new single Boom Boom Bang is as colourful and addictive as the title promises.
Red Alert is a Publick Safety Announcement, apparently. It’s a fun, frothy and retro sound that explodes out of the speakers and has a zesty kinetic video made to accompany it.
