Deep House Tested On The Dancefloors: Leandro Silva Drops Youngster With A Remix By Fred Aster, Via Igual Records

Youngster has made its way from European clubs to the Middle East, and now it’s hitting digital platforms, showing the musical evolution of the UK-based Luso-Angolan artist.

It’s hard to pick the standout moments from an artist who’s been in the game since 1997, starting in Luanda, Africa, and going on to smash it across Europe, from the UK to Poland. But Youngster is up there. 

The original tune runs just over six minutes, taking listeners on a spacey journey with a nostalgic, sunset vibe. Influenced by London’s deep house scene—with funky basslines, long melodies, advanced chord progressions, and a solid groove—the track has been tested across clubs in Europe and the Middle East. Fun fact: it was first aired live on Bloop London radio back on 5th July 2021.
Youngster marks a new level of maturity for producer Leandro Silva, cementing his identity as a DJ who’s aiming even higher. From his early days at the iconic Elinga Bar in Luanda—a creative hub for local artists and still a reference point in the scene—to his releases on labels like Pokerflat and Manual Music, it all built up to the Leandro Silva we know today, aka Denker. He dropped Youngster via Igual Records on 28th August 2024, with a remix by Fred Aster.


Leandro Silva has DJed in some of the world’s best spots, including the UK, the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, and Jordan. Along the way, he’s released music on labels like Pokerflat, Manual Music, Piston Recordings, and Melomane, and worked with artists like Mr. V, Robert Owens, Inaya Day, Wayne Tennant, Cinnamon Brown, Veselina Popova, and many more. His tunes have been backed by top names like Sasha, Manoo, Ashley Beedle, Jimpster, Phonique, Lars Behrenroth, Ramon Tapia, Don Diablo, Roger Sanchez, and a whole lot of others. His collab with Mr. V hit #23 on Beatport, catching the attention of the industry’s big players. Recently, he launched his own label, Igual Records, and debuted Youngster, with a remix by Fred Aster, a long-time collaborator. The two have shared plenty of DJ booths, and they’re gearing up to drop a new project soon. Talking about his creative process,
Leandro Silva said:
“It was a long journey. Youngster came out of studio sessions where I experimented with different sounds and approaches, drawing influence from Jan Jelinek, Jimpster, and the South African Aquatone, which led to a more abstract deep house vibe. Those sessions resulted in 12 tracks, some of which have already dropped on Igual Records.”
Fred Aster is an Angolan producer based in Luanda and the DJ behind Blur Records. He’s dropped several EPs on labels like Dobro Music and Rewind Ltd, and more recently, on Blur Records with Jazz Space Pool, French Cat, and What You Need in collaboration with Chemars. He also hosts the monthly radio show “Luanda Underground,” broadcast live on Radio Electronica in Germany. Aster’s got more releases on the way, including a remix for Leandro Silva and a new disco track with Scrucru, set to drop early September.

Youngster dropped on 28th August 2024 via Igual Records and is available on all major platforms.

Ultra Drops Ultra Miami 2024 Aftermovie

The Ultra Music Festival 2024 official after movie has finally arrived, and it’s a cinematic masterpiece that perfectly encapsulates the magic of Miami’s most iconic event. Directed and edited by the talented Charly Friedrichs, better known as Final Kid, the aftermovie takes viewers on a euphoric journey through the high-energy weekend, giving us all the FOMO we didn’t know we needed. The visual storytelling is elevated by Aaron Hibell’s genius original music production, featuring both released and unreleased tracks that add layers of emotional depth to the footage.
Music That Defines Moments
The soundtrack of the aftermovie isn’t just background noise—it’s the heartbeat of the entire experience. Kicking things off, the music selection sets the tone with Aaron Hibell & Alex Wann’s ‘Set Me Free’, which captures the freedom and exhilaration that Ultra is all about. As the energy escalates, tracks like Becky Hill, Chase & Status’ ‘Disconnect’ and Aaron Hibell’s unreleased banger ‘Another Dimension’ amplify the electric atmosphere that Ultra is known for. The transition from Aaron Hibell’s haunting ‘You Look Lonely vs Another Dimension (Dubstep Edit)’ into the more ethereal ‘Levitation’ showcases Final Kid’s mastery in blending visuals with music.
An Unreleased Treasure Trove
What sets this aftermovie apart is the inclusion of several unreleased tracks from Aaron Hibell, making it a must-watch for fans eager to hear what’s next in the electronic music world. Tracks like A State of Emergency (FK’s Resistance Edit) send chills, while the Nicky Romero, Third Party vs Chemical Brothers, and Artbat mashup of ‘Hey Bad Boy’ bring a gritty yet nostalgic feel to the Miami skyline. The climax comes with Aaron Hibell & Final Kid’s ‘Encore (MUSIC IS THE ANSWER)’, a fresh take on the original track by Joe Godard featuring SLO. The message? Music truly is the answer to everything.
Looking Ahead: #ULTRA25
As we revel in the highlights of Ultra 2024, the aftermovie also teases what’s to come. With the waitlist for #ULTRA25 now open, this film serves as both a recap and a reminder of why Ultra Miami is the ultimate festival experience.

Will Sync Unveils New Club Banger ‘Take a Shot’

In just the first nine months of 2024, UK artist Will Sync has already made a significant mark on the house music scene. He burst onto the scene in March with his debut single ‘Love Is Fair’ and hasn’t slowed down since. Over the following months, he continued to drop standout tracks like ‘Don’t Look Back’, ‘Falling’, and, most recently, ‘Echo’, earning recognition from industry heavyweights like EDM.com. Now, he’s back on our radar with his latest release, ‘Take A Shot.’
This new single continues his streak of captivating releases, bringing a sultry, seductive vibe to the club scene. ‘Take A Shot’ is built on a rhythmic house beat, blending both ethereal and dark vocals to create an infectious, gripping sound. The track’s distinctive use of synths and samples sets it apart, cementing Will Sync’s reputation as a fresh and innovative voice in the music world.
“In the club scene mainstream pop music overshadows big clubbing hits like the ones Calvin Harris and David Guetta used to produce; inspired by them, I wanted to make a ravey hit so I created Take a Shot; a mix of deep house and mainstream dance as a departure from the heavy EDM trend.” said Will Sync
“Clubs need more upbeat dance music that makes people feel the reality of where they actually are, that’s why all of the lyrics around the solid, hooky bassline help people to live in the moment.” he added.

Deorro Nabs First Latin Grammy Nomination

Deorro, the renowned DJ and producer behind the global dance hit "Five More Hours," has been nominated for his first Latin Grammy Award.
The Mexican-American producer received a nod in the category of Best Latin Electronic Music Performance for "BAMBOLE," a collaboration he released on Pitbull's Mr. 305 Records last summer alongside crossover dance artist Vikina. The pulsing track blends her sultry vocals with Deorro's signature bouncy synths and four-on-the-floor rhythms.
This year is the first to feature the brand-new category, which the Latin Recording Academy says "recognizes the evolution of Latin electronic music."
"That's something that’s very big for us," Deorro told GRAMMY.com about the new category. "How beautiful that this is happening, because it shows that what we’re doing is working, we’re breaking down doors, and we’re creating more opportunities for artists like us in the future."
Joining Deorro are Brazilian dance music superstar Alok, who received a pair of nominations for his tracks "Pedju Kunumigwe" and "Drum Machine"; Dutch EDM icon Tiësto, who was nominated for his remix of Bizarrap and Shakira's "Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53"; and Ale Acosta and Valeria Castro for their collaboration "La Ceniza."
It's a big moment for Deorro, who revealed he'd be focusing more on Latin dance music back in 2020. The chart-topping producer then released his first crossover album, ORRO, which features collaborations with Elvis Crespo, Brray and Los Tucanes De Tijuana, in 2022 before opening up for Bad Bunny on his "World’s Hottest Tour."
Earlier this year, Deorro performed a remix of "Te Va a Doler" alongside Mexican singer, songwriter Thalía, prevalently referred to as the "Queen of Latin Pop," at the 2024 Latin American Music Awards. He also signed with Double P Records, the label of hip-hop and reggaeton superstar Peso Pluma, before returning to the Mr. 305 imprint to release a rendition of "Como La Flor" by the late Mexican-American artist Selina Quintanilla alongside Natti Natasha and Play-N-Skillz.
Celebrating on social media, Deorro called his first Latin Grammy nomination a "dream come true."
The Latin Recording Academy's 25th annual Latin Grammy Awards will take place Thursday, November 14th at Miami's Kaseya Center. Check out the full list of nominees here.

The synergy between Elephante and yetep brings a unique energy to the track, showcasing their combined talents in electronic music production. Listen here.
All We Get is a song I wrote with YETEP and Daye about finding peace with the cosmic hand you’ve been dealt in life. We’re constantly bombarded by a culture of being more productive, accomplishing more, and that nothing is ever good enough. This song is my way of trying to find the clarity in the noise and fully immersing yourself in the moments where you feel fulfilled.” – Elephante
Hidden Horizon, the label behind the release, continues its mission of uplifting and amplifying AAPI (Asian American and Pacific Islander) artists. “Hidden Horizon is about building the community I wish I had when I was starting my career, both among creatives and with fans,” says Elephante (Tim Wu). “It’s about giving underrepresented voices a platform to be heard, and celebrating the culture that has brought us to where we are.”

Surprise! Space Miami is Reopening This Weekend

It’s been a long, calm, and quiet Summer in Miami without Club Space. The legendary 24-hour nightclub closed after Memorial Day for some renovations to be good neighbors to the E11even condos going up next door. When the doors closed, Miami was without a techno club all Summer with no official word on when it would re-open. The Space team teased some of the work as it went on, and we could see the legendary staircase being knocked out and another one going in.
Then the Space team announced a Space Pop-Up at Factory Town in Hialeah that would run for two weekends. Then the Space team started posting stories of what appeared to be finishing touches being applied to the club. The booth (which looks like it got some TLC) was getting the little eye placed back in facing the crowd. The Link Miami Rebels flag was going back up, and an old post that said “Space is Calling” was being reposted.
As it turns out, there was an ambitious plan for Space to open by surprise two weekends ago, but the venue still needed some finishing touches before the announcement could be made. Thankfully that day has finally arrived. Space will open on Thursday with 4 nights of mayhem. Thursday night will see Peggy Gou, John Talabot, Alinka, Ms. Mada, and Sister System. Friday will get Green Velvet, DJ Seinfeld, Shermanology, Thunderpony, and Nicole Gallamini. Saturday gets Francis Mercier, Bakke, Malone, and Nii Tei. Finally, Sunday is hosted by Fisher, Danyelino, and Monoky. Tickets are now available for the opening parties. See you on the Space dance floor again soon!

The most affordable camping option at Lost Lands is GA tent-only camping, which accommodates up to four people and provides a 10'x15' camping space.
For a slightly upgraded experience, there's forest tent camping. This option offers a more secluded spot in a lush, wooded area for up to four people. While tent placement is flexible, it’s limited to two sleeping tents and one shade tent.
Both options require you to bring your own gear, but if you'd rather avoid the hassle of setting up a tent and other equipment, there's easy camping. This option provides a pre-set campsite for two guests, complete with an air mattress, sleeping bags, pillows and chairs.
Car Camping
If you're bringing your own vehicle, you can choose GA car camping, which provides a 10'x35' space for 1-2 tents and a standard-sized car.
For a more peaceful experience, you can opt for quiet car camping, where you'll be surrounded by fellow quiet campers, ensuring a restful night's sleep.
RV Camping
RV camping is divided into two categories: with and without hookups. Both options include a 20' x 50' space for one RV and access to services like water refills and pumps.
However, if you opt for RV camping with hookups, you'll also get a 30 amp/110v power connection, allowing you to power appliances, charge devices, and keep your RV air-conditioned throughout the festival.
