Vera Hotsauce’s ‘Dad’s Bugatti’ bangs
Following her 2019 ‘Blue Pill’ mixtape, Stockholm-hailing Vera Hotsauce returns with new AOBeats and Sakima-produced cut ‘Dad’s Bugatti’.
With Hannah Diamond-esque hyperpop production and a Shygirl-levelled crudeness to her flow, the 19-year-old ‘cocky-pop’ trailblazer is able to translate party experiences into more songs to party to. Hotsauce’s cyclical sickly-sweet cocktail is headed by heavily vocoded vocals and has been tied together by producers including Oscar Scheller and the Diplo-affiliated-Moving Castle producer collective.

Jerome Obholz – ‘Can You Tell Me’
“”All You Want” is a song I wrote when I found myself in a toxic relationship where I had to constantly fight for attention, time, & love. Through this time I wrote the pre-chorus and chorus to “All You Want”. I remember not sleeping that night & just laying in my bed doing anything and everything to fall asleep. Feeling like an idiot for loving someone so much that I couldn’t even sleep. I finally took a moment and journaled how I was feeling and that was enough release for me to get some sleep. This was the beginning stages of “All You Want”.”

Defected regular OFFAIAH returns to the imprint with ‘Private Show’, his latest dose of expansive, club-focused house, after storming hits ‘Soldier’, ‘Work It Out’ and ‘Push Pull’ ignited dancefloors across the globe.
