When We Dip: Lonely & Michael Js team up REK'D

Italian artists Lonely & Michael Js team up on Rekids’ REK’D sublabel with the ‘Libre’ EP. First up, Desolat artist and SICK MODE label boss Lonely drops title track ‘Libre,’ a drummy groove keeping pace along a hypnotic, sultry Latin vocal and an earworm bitcrushed melody. Lonely is then joined by DJ and producer Michael Js, known for his sets at Fotonica Festival, ADE, Space Ibiza, LAB Madrid, and more, for ‘Lonemind,’ featuring a rolling House beat, zippy synthlines and high-impact sampling, closing out the ‘Libre’ EP already supported by the likes of Laurent Garnier, Gina Breeze, and Marco Faraone.

“After a long night in Ibiza…I spent some time near the sea, and the sunrise and the sound of the waves inspired me to this track that with the delicacy of the words of the Spanish vocal that screams this sense of freedom that is exactly what I was feeling at that moment.” – Lonely

Matt Edwards launched REK’D in October 2024 to release no-nonsense House music without the limitations of parent label Rekids. It has released dancefloor-ready EPs from artists such as St. David, Odee X, James Juke, James Curd, and more.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Lonemind’ exclusively on When We Dip. Enjoy!
