about

Hot Concept enters its third year with the inaugural edition of ‘Hot Compilation’, collecting new works from every artist who has released on the label so far. Initially released as a Bandcamp exclusive, all proceeds from the release will be donated to habibi.works, an on-the-ground charity assisting refugees in Greece by providing spaces to use and exchange skills

Discovery Zone open the release with ‘Faking It’, an instrumental passage of wistful synth pleasure that acts as a blissful opening and an ideal foil to their celebrated debut album ‘Remote Control’ on Mansions & Millions, as well as the accompanying ‘Dance II’ remix single on Hot Concept. Oscillating in a different direction, Bleaching Agent continues to hypnotically meld outsider influences on ‘Amar’, an atmospheric, chugging juncture between EBM and post-punk.

Following two singles supported by DJs such as HAAi and Erol Alkan, British-Asian producer Beigean delves into his Bollywood crate to introduce ‘Bolly Edit #1’, a rhythmic and glorious nod to Indian cinema heritage that has been a staple on selected USB sticks since 2017, recently causing a stir in a festive back-to-back between label founder and John Loveless and Palms Trax on Cashmere Radio.

Loveless himself turns up in collaboration with Pokies for ‘Plausible Deniability’, directly inspired by the rubberiest bounce of Chicago house and absurdist electro, originally recorded on one baking hot Berlin afternoon in 2018, a temperature reflected in near-audible sweat. Refining this intensity, Gramrcy delivers ‘Throbbee’, a wide-eyed spectacle of tripping rave, easily cementing the man from Peach Discs’ reputation as one of the most versatile and generous club producers out there.

Finally, Yr Lovely Dead Moon anticipates new material and builds on the emerging cultish reputation of her recent self-titled album with ‘Mirror’, a simmering mix of performance poetry and heavy electronic manipulation, concluding ‘Hot Compilation’ on a deep and definitive note.

Hot Concept is a Berlin-based electronic and alternative music outlet founded by DJ, writer and producer, John Loveless. Beginning as a party, it expanded into a label in 2019. Beginning in 2016, habibi.works provides work with team members from sixteen individual countries in order to provide opportunity for education, empowerment and encounter.
