Another exciting name emerges from the Netherlands’ ever-thriving house scene as Hidde van Wee steps up for his first release on Up The Stuss with his four-track ‘Aspire To Inspire’ EP. Rapidly gaining recognition for his dynamic and groove-driven productions, Hidde has already turned heads via releases on Rossi.’s HOME//GRXWN, Heavy House Society, and beyond. Now, he arrives on Chris Stussy’s thriving imprint with a four-track collection that showcases his range as an artist, blending elements and influences spanning minimal, electro, and deep house to deliver a forward-thinking selection built for the club. 

Leading the charge, title track ‘Aspire To Inspire’ sets the tone with infectious bass grooves and shimmering synth work, providing a sleek opener that commands attention. ‘Perception Of Swing’ is another captivating journey through layers of fluid melodies and driving low-ends, while ‘Motion’ leans into deeper, hypnotic territories, pairing hazy tones over a menacing bassline to offer a classy yet dynamic contrast. Rounding out the package, ‘Metamorph’ delivers a fusion of cosmic synths and slick, jacking drums, injecting a playful, futuristic edge to close the EP. 

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