mpeg - ‘Monte Kali’ [HAWS025] 🐠

Numero 25; a quarter of a century in records.

Newcomer mpeg rises up to mark the special occasion with a positively forceful weapon of stark heat, and met the mark with unabridged precision.

The Monte Kali EP serves as an agile, singular and versatile record, with mpeg’s original productions neatly remixed by two artistic geniuses; Bliss_Inc. and Spray, both of which transcend rave, Goa trance and prog in their own methodical, authentic demeanour.

Enjoy the ride, take your time. After all, there is no finish line.

Estimated release date: 19th of April, 2024

Admo - ‘Elysus’ [HAWS021]

😶‍🌫️ 'My name is nobody.' 😶‍🌫️

Prepare to be enraptured by the mysterious musings of Admo with his newest EP entitled 'Elysus'. Record number 21 on Haŵs takes the form of a 4 track tech-house, head-nodding monster of defined and mature proportions. Haunting chords and mischievous keys, all wrapped around clicks and wobbles and punching percussion, accompanied by the most dastardly and epic basslines we've quite possibly ever come across...

Admo has given us a masterclass in production. Don’t expect any info on his methods, this one’s just for your ears and souls. Coming to all the raves near you, imminently.

Released on, or around, the 12th of May, 2023.

Laars & Cosmic G - 'Flotation Agent' [HAWS020]

♾️ 'From the depths of the infinite mind.' ♾️

Haŵs is 20 deep. No longer in our shy teens, just a real life sonic entity with (almost) no adolescent trappings...

Drawn from the depths of the infinite mind, Laars and Cosmic G’s creation is the sum of all its parts. The Belgradian based artist deliver a storming 12" 4 tracker with just enough magic to dissipate yourself into the cosmic milieu of prog.

Released on, or around, the 7th of April, 2023.

Jeku - ‘Transcendence’ [HAWS019]

🔮 "A chant between two worlds." 🔮

Scandi-lous! We’ve got another other-worldly record for you, courtesy of who? Jeku! The man from Helsinki has given us a much-coveted gift, a gift that traverses incredulity yet still thankfully remains harnessed to the human realm. The story that started below the ozone layer has moved to the stratosphere. Transcendence is coming, and boy has he been busy. 😮‍💨

No subterfuge, just a guy from the underground with two ears for unparalleled tranceability. No description, just listen and try not to ascend. It can’t be done. It’s Jeku for you.

A big thank you to everyone who came down to celebrate 6 years of Haŵs with us all last weekend. After running 30+ events since 2016, it’s safe to say that this was up there as being one of our favourite parties to date, and an apt way of ending a chapter of throwing regular shows in Cardiff.

Huge thanks to Tristan da Cunha for gracing us with his masterclass set behind the decks, it was an absolute honour seeing you do your thing. Hands down the most genuine, down-to-earth artists we’ve ever had the pleasure of hosting, a true living legend 👑

We now turn our attention to the running of our record label as we fast approach record number 20. We intend to continue our annual birthday parties here in Cardiff, whilst focusing on hosting some exciting events elsewhere around the UK.

Here’s to all the special memories that were made and shared on the dancefloor together over the years, and for your continued support. Cardiff, it’s been a pleasure. Diolch yn fawr 💕

See you all in the not too distant future. 🪐🛸🛰

Anderson - 'Sunbeam' [HAWS018]

🌞 "Find faith in rhythm." 🌞

The 18th segment of our sonic anthology comes from the US-born electronica wunderkid Anderson! After featuring on our 'Viral Syndicate' digital compilation series back in 2020, we've had him in the crosshairs for a full release ever since.

The result? A brilliant 4 track EP filled with dynamic proggy goodness, acid squelches and intoxicating house rhythms, unmistakably inspired by the 90s and stamped with the signature Anderson sound. 🤠

Released on, or around, the 21st of October, 2022.

Solar Suite - 'Clear Skies' [HAWS017]

🌤️ "Step into the light." 🌤️

For the 17th release on label, Naarm-based DJ/producer Solar Suite explores the playful liminality of dusk and dawn, taking locked grooves and prog sounds as the tools to transform the strange into something exhilarating.

‘Clear Skies’ comprises 3 high-nrg club-ready tracks and 2 slow chuggers to balance out the up-tempo rhythms, all with dedicated circumstances to be plucked out from record bags and presented to a willing crowd. The only question left: what occasions personal to the selector will they rear their heads?

Spinning turntables worldwide by August 12th, 2022.
