Bring Down the House: Top 10 House Tracks to Workout to

House music has been getting ravers movin’ and groovin’ from way back in the late 80’s/early 90’s, and the bootz n’ catz beat hasn’t stopped shuffling people’s feet ever since.

Solardo’s Big Success With “Big Talk”, Idris Elba, and Ambitions

Collectively known as Solardo, the duo is comprised of production duo Mark Richards and James Eliot — both hailing from Manchester, England. In conjunction to having the rise of their hard work with a slew of releases and collaborations from Viva, Elrow, Hot Creations, Carl Cox, Duke Dumont, Gorgon City, MK, Nicole Moudaber, and many others, the prolific duo is once again stepping into the new year with another memorable flare. On March 3rd, 2023, Solardo will be releasing a collab single with fellow British DJ and producer Idris Elba on the feel-good club tune “Big Talk” via Ultra Records. Playfully dirty, the new release leans its weight on an undeniable beat and equally hypnotic hook, but leaving it at that undercuts of the sexy nuance and swelling basslines.

Next to an exciting release schedule, Solardo is also touring across the globe in festivals and clubs in México, Brazil, the US, Croatia, and Ibiza. Solardo will be touching down in Miami at the end of March for Miami Music Week, where the pair will be playing at ANTS at the Oasis on March 22, Vintage Culture’s party at SLS on March 23, No Sugar Added at the Magic City Villa on March 25, and at the Resistance Club on March 26.

In Interview with MANT

Underground London duo MANT have kicked off 2019 in style with a landmark new EP titled Higher Self on Solardo’s inimitable Sola label.

Featuring two heady house and techno cuts Higher Self is a bold statement of intent from the pair, whose distinguished house and techno sound has been attracting attention throughout the industry, tipping them for big things in 2019.

2018 was a seismic year for MANT. The duo’s highly respected productions have found their way onto labels like Cr2, Solotoko, Sola, and VIVa Music while their raucous DJ sets left a mark on festivals and clubs up and down the country. 2018 saw the boy’s support from tastemakers grow too, including the likes of Hot Since 82, Jamie Jones, Steve Lawler, Joris Voorn, Claude VonStroke, Nic Fancuilli, and many more.

MANT possess a committed work ethic and drive for all things house and techno, which means it comes as no surprise that 2019 is looking even brighter. Not afraid to hit the ground running, Higher Self marks their first release of the year and does so with hypnotic grooves, acid-inspired melodies and club-ready atmospherics that draw on the pair’s eclectic range of influences.
