Drumcode unveil new DC4 Vol.5 EP featuring Mark Reeves, Charles D + more
Four tried and true dancefloor aces.
Drumcode continues its DC4 compilation series with Volume 5, bringing together four exclusive tracks from established label names and first-time contributors.
The latest instalment introduces debuts from 19:26 & Bittermind and Hamburg producer KENZ, while welcoming back Drumcode regulars Charles D and Mark Reeve. The series has become a platform for both emerging talent and standalone productions from artists already established on the label.
Italian-Turkish duo 19:26 & Bittermind open the release with ‘Dancing’, their first outing on Drumcode. The pair have steadily built a profile through emotionally driven techno and recently remixed Anyma & LISA’s ‘Bad Angel’ for Afterlife. Their contribution pairs driving percussion, electro influences and subtle psy textures beneath a commanding vocal.
Charles D follows up his appearance on DC4 Vol.4 by joining forces with French producer Rafael Cerato on ‘Right Now’, a groove-led cut built around rapped vocals and rolling low-end.
Mark Reeve also returns after a busy year on Drumcode, having already released an EP ‘Body Drops’ and collaboration ‘Love Within’ with Adam Beyer. His latest track, ‘Work’, balances a weighty rhythmic foundation with the melodic elements that have become a hallmark of his productions.
Closing the compilation is KENZ, who makes his Drumcode debut with ‘Blade’, reworking a familiar riff into a peak-time techno cut aimed squarely at the summer festival season.
