As per Billboard; Astralwerks has signed a deal with Steve Angello’s SIZE imprint, in which they will handle distribution for the new relaunch, as well as their back catalogue.
Alongside the news, SIZE releases their 250th release in ‘What You Need’, a house number from Angello himself and masked UK duo Wh0.
‘What You Need’ sees Steve Angello and Wh0 tapping into the primal heartbeat of house music, skillfully crafting a modern-day anthem that cleverly samples Carrie Lucas’s “I Got to Be Dancin'”. The track overflows with captivating rhythms and bold basslines, offering a fresh and contemporary twist to the timeless disco melody.
“While I’m excited to honor the legacy of SIZE Records by re-launching the catalog, I’m every bit as thrilled by what the future holds,” Angello tells Billboard. “Teaming with Wh0 to make ‘What You Need’ the inaugural new release on the imprint feels like the perfect way to set the tone for everything we have planned. It’s a new era, new team, new SIZE, new collaborations, new music and lots of it! My gratitude to Astralwerks for taking this journey with us at SIZE!”
“SIZE Records is a powerhouse label and home to some of my all-time favorite records,” adds Astralwerks President Toby Andrews. “Being able to work with them as they kick off their 20th anniversary celebrations whilst Astralwerks is celebrating its 30th year feels like the perfect match. In addition to that, the whole team is excited to bring more of Steve’s music to the world and work with him and all his team to elevate the future vision and catalog of the label.”
