Cassy continues the Kwench Records reboot with one of the earliest recruits, Art Alfie.

Kwench Records is a label that brings house and techno together. Since its 2017 inception, the label has seen Cassy release music by tastemakers and originators that have been her record bag throughout. Players like Fred P, Ian Pooley, Sascha Dive, Sebo K, Art Alfie, as well as being a home for Cassy to express herself freely through curation and her own music.

Back for his second release is Stockholm artist Art Alfie with three diverse tracks ready to permeate dancefloors far and wide. ‘Arps For You’ described by Art Alfie as a ‘secret weapon of mine for many years, a 100% certified dancefloor bomb’. The classic house groove of ‘Runt Runt’ mixed with techno elements, LFO’s, and strings, and ‘The Philistines’ with its intriguing ‘stick it to the man’ vocal sample, driving rhythms and emotives pads.

Cassy explains ‘It’s important to me that Kwench Records represents a side of dance music that has been with me throughout my career. Artists like Art Alfie have given me many great dance floor tools over the years, and it’s a real skill to be able to develop DJ tools that are also interesting tracks at the same time, and not just functional. Art Alfie has nailed it on this release, of course he has! I’ve always been a fan of his style’
