Hardt Antoine

A warm, late-night glow pulses through ‘One More Night’, as Hardt Antoine returns to Damian Lazarus’ Crosstown Rebels for his first original release on the label, adding to his captivating remix of Henri Bergmann & Wentink’s ‘Guardian Angel’ in 2024. Anchored by Charlotte OC’s striking delivery, the track draws on the pull of classic disco and modern club sensibilities, balancing introspection with pure dancefloor drive.

“I fell in love with the track instantly when Hardt Antoine played me the instrumental,” says Charlotte OC.

“Within minutes of hearing it, I’d already sent him a vocal idea, and once we got into the studio, everything just fell into place. Vocally, I wanted to capture the emotion of someone who’s realized their worth – the kind of feeling you hear in a lot of late-70s disco, especially with artists like Donna Summer.”

On remix duties, Greek DJ/producer Echonomist reshapes the original into a blissful voyage, layering skippy rhythms and shadowy textures for an emotive late-night ride. Rounding out the release, ‘Dreamstate’ offers a complementary original from Hardt Antoine, leaning further into his melodic instincts with a fluid, atmospheric groove.

Hardt Antoine’s output and sound draws on his French and Jamaican heritage, weaving house, techno, soul, and 80s influences into a sonic identity defined by rich melodies and groove-led songwriting.

With releases on the likes of Innervisions and Kompakt, and performances at Circoloco, Junction 2, fabric, and Panorama Bar, he continues to build a global presence rooted in both club impact and musical depth.

Meanwhile, Charlotte OC brings her distinct vocal talents to Crosstown for the very first time. Following a return to her hometown of Blackburn and a renewed creative focus, her recent work leans into raw, self-assured songwriting, blending vulnerability with strength – qualities that sit at the heart of ‘One More Night’.

Avision delivers his first full statement on Ground Rule Records with his ‘Out Of Control’ EP.

Avision doesn’t just represent New York; he channels it, loud and unapologetically. Having laid the groundwork, the Staten Island-born artist delivers the first full-length statement on his newly minted Ground Rule Records imprint as he closes April with his ‘Out Of Control’ EP, bringing together six tracks already making serious impact across global dancefloors.

More than a collection, it captures the wide scope of his sound – from slick techno-leaning touches and groove-led house to flashes of vibrant disco and deeper, late-night moments, all rooted in the energy of the city that has shaped him.

The EP’s foundation has been building in plain sight. ‘Out Of Control’, ‘Goes Like This’, ‘Reach’, and ‘Baby Tell Me’ have each carved out their own lane over recent months, becoming staples in sets from a wide spectrum of artists, from Honey Dijon and David Morales through to Damian Lazarus and Peggy Gou.

Now unified, they form the backbone of a wider project, music that works across rooms, styles, and generations without losing its identity.

Two new cuts now complete that picture. ‘Risky’ leans into late-night instincts. It’s rolling, tension-filled, and crafted around a fluid groove, primed for those deeper moments when the energy shifts but never drops.

‘Cómo Se’, on the other hand, brings a different kind of movement: warmer, looser, and rhythmically driven. With nods to Latin influences and swing that feels effortless but controlled, it’s a track that reflects the city’s cultural crosscurrents as much as its club heritage.

That duality sits at the heart of Avision’s position right now. As one of the few artists operating comfortably between generations, he bridges the gap between New York’s foundational figures and its new wave, equally at home alongside long-standing icons like Victor Calderone as he is among the artists shaping today’s global circuit.

It’s a role that goes beyond DJing; it’s about maintaining a lineage, carrying forward a sound, and reintroducing its essence to new audiences to allow them to discover what New York club culture really means. Ground Rule Records – and the wider Ground Rule Collective project – are a direct extension of that mindset.

Uniting music, events, and culture, it reflects the deep-rooted connection to his city in its purest form. From sold-out events at Superior Ingredients to a growing presence across disciplines, it’s less about nostalgia and more about momentum, pushing New York forward while staying rooted in what made it matter in the first place.

This isn’t an artist chasing trends, hype, or big moments. Instead, he’s consciously building something with weight, purpose, and longevity. Six tracks in, and it’s already clear that this is a project that doesn’t just reflect the city that shaped him, it reflects where both he and the city are heading next.

Mozambo and Antdot revisit a modern soul classic with ‘Wish I Didn’t Miss You’

Mozambo and Antdot revisit a modern soul classic with Wish I Didn’t Miss You, a respectful club interpretation shaped for late-night floors while keeping the emotional clarity of the source intact.

For Mozambo, the original has long been a personal touchstone. Reworking it was approached as preservation rather than reinvention, keeping the sentiment recognizable while translating it into a contemporary dance setting. Antdot’s contribution adds subtle rhythmic detail and low-end weight, giving the track range across both intimate and larger systems.

Recently, during a B2B set with Nic Fanciulli at [UNVRS] Ibiza, legendary producer and DJ Carl Cox, who played a remix of the track featuring the same iconic Angie Stone vocals for many years, was caught off guard by the Antdot and Mozambo rework. His reaction upon hearing the refreshed version of the hit quickly went viral on social media.

Angie Stone’s recording remains one of the defining soul releases of the early 2000s. Her writing carried gospel roots into modern R&B with unusual directness, and Wish I Didn’t Miss You in particular became a rare crossover moment that resonated across radio, clubs and sampling culture.

Stone’s voice balanced strength and vulnerability without theatrics, which is precisely what made the record endure well beyond its chart life. The new version stands as a tribute to that legacy, acknowledging its influence while introducing it to a new context.

Here’s what Mozambo had to say about the remix:

“This remix is very special to us because the original has been part of our lives for years. Two years ago in Ibiza we rediscovered it while digging and we had this idea: we wanted to play it in our sets, but to reinterpret it with our own sound.

For us it’s also connected to the legacy of Ibiza, especially that iconic Carl Cox moment at the Space closing in 2016. We’ve watched that video so many times, it always gave us goosebumps.

We were scared to touch it because it’s such a masterpiece, but one day we started the project and everything flowed naturally.

The goal was to pay tribute to Angie Stone and to that Ibiza spirit, keeping the emotion of the vocal. It’s really a sunset and closing record, an homage and a dream turned into reality.” 

Across 2025 and into 2026, Mozambo have moved into a more defined phase of their project, with a steady run of releases, wider international bookings and the growth of their Jungle Disco label clarifying their musical identity.

The period has seen them refine a sound that connects heritage influences with contemporary club language, placing them more firmly within the global circuit.

The single lands as a joint release between Dawn Patrol and Mozambo’s own Jungle Disco imprint, marking a meeting point between the duo’s club-focused output and the label’s broader melodic direction.

Mozambo play Hi Ibiza 28 May for Dawn Patrol.

“Hellcat” arrives as a natural next step following a breakout 2025 that saw Mesophonic transition from viral sensation to emerging live act.

After first gaining national attention when Shaquille O’Neal (DJ DIESEL) brought him onstage at Denver’s Mission Ballroom, the moment came full circle later that year when Mesophonic returned as an official opener for Shaq the Halls, marking his debut performance at the iconic venue.

David Guetta

Global electronic music icon David Guetta and German house innovator Marten Hørger have officially announced their new collaborative project, Men Machine, marking a bold new chapter for both artists.

The duo debuted the project live on April 11th during Guetta‘s special performance at the Quasar Stage at Coachella, where Hørger joined him on stage for a surprise appearance. Together, they played out multiple tracks from the Men Machine project, igniting an immediate reaction from the packed crowd.

Though Guetta and Hørger have collaborated in various capacities over the years, Men Machine represents their first official joint venture as a dedicated project. The first wave of music from Men Machine is set to roll out in the coming months, with official release dates to be announced soon.

Sonically, Men Machine represents an evolution for Guetta, drawing inspiration from the electroclash movement of the ’90s – blending elements of electro, new wave, synth-pop, and techno – while firmly rooted in the sound of 2026 mainstage electronic music.

The project follows Guetta‘s other club-focused collaboration Future Rave with MORTEN, launched in 2019 to bridge the gap between underground club sounds and festival-scale energy.

Since its inception, Future Rave has evolved into a defining sonic identity and global live concept, supported by dedicated releases, tours, and residencies that have helped shape and influence the modern mainstage sound.

Kaleena Zanders

Breaking grounds as vocalist and dance music producer, Kaleena Zanders, returns with her latest single “Stronger Than Machines,” out now via Helix Records.

The track serves as Kaleena’s third single from her forthcoming debut album, Anything Goes. “Stronger Than Machines” taps straight into Kaleena Zanders’ signature energy groovy, uplifting, and impossible to stand still to. Built around a punchy rhythm and feel-good vocals, the track carries an infectious bounce that pulls you in from the first beat and doesn’t let go.

It’s the kind of record that fills a room instantly, turning any moment into a dancefloor and leaving you riding that high long after it ends.

Here’s what Kaleena had to say about the release:

“It’s kind of funny but my friend Vanessa and I wrote the lyrics to this song 3 or 4 years ago, not knowing we were literally going to go through what feels like a battle with AI.

I had brought the topline to Daniel Allan and he came up with this incredible driving chord progression that felt euphoric and free and my long time collaborator No Bills & I finished up the production to give it a KZ twist.

We sat on it for a while but after one of my songs got scrapped from my album this song came rushing back to memory. I was like “ya know what people probably could use a little slice of musical hope even if ai seems to be taking over in every aspect of our lives.

The child-like gang vocals are all my voices and I wanted to sound like the future humans who will have to make sure the future of humanity doesn’t get completely erased.”

Kaleena Zanders is building a strong presence both musically and online, where her creativity has quickly connected with audiences. She gained viral attention with her cover of “Bazooka” and expanded on that with a remix of Miami XO’s track, sharing a studio clip captioned “RIP Granny.”

The video, blending humor and her signature harmonies, has over 1.7M views and 284K likes, while also sparking the “World War III soundtrack” trend, which has 649K views across platforms, establishing her as a rising musical and cultural force.

This single marks a pivotal moment for Kaleena Zanders as she prepares for the launch of her Anything Goes Tour on April 23rd and the release of her long-awaited debut album this spring. Since late 2025, she’s been sharing the stage with electronic luminary GRiZ and continuing to establish herself as a commanding live performer.

Kaleena is set to bring that energy to major festival stages this season, including Electric Forest and Beyond Wonderland Chicago, further cementing her rise as one of dance music’s most dynamic voices.
