Duro Label prepares to ignite the late-year circuit with a high-voltage collaboration between two Madrid-based masters: Chilean DJ and producer Fernanda Arrau and Polish house veteran Ketiov. Their "Mexico Tour" EP, landing December 5, 2025, is a masterful exchange of global house rhythms, completed by a powerful remix from Duro co-head, Theus Mago.
Fernanda Arrau, a driving force in the South American electronic scene, anchors her sound in the infectious energy of 80s and 90s synthesizers and dynamic Latin rhythms. Ketiov, the deeply personal project of Voitek Taranczuk (half of Catz ’n Dogz), indulges his boundary-breaking instincts, crossing genres with innovative rhythmic play and a deep history in house, disco, and techno. Their combined vision results in an EP that is both a nostalgic nod and a decisive step forward.
The journey begins with the "México Tour (Original Mix)", a cut purpose-built to scorch the dancefloor. It’s an energizing track powered by an electrifying bassline, distorted vocals, and a solid drum foundation accompanied by relentless, frenzied cowbells.
The EP then takes a twisted detour via a remix from Duro’s co-head, Theus Mago. Known for his acid-laced house bombs and ability to "weird out" the dancefloor, the "México Tour (Theus Mago Remix)" features a playful bassline and percussions, complemented by melted melodies and a characteristic acid touch. It’s a signature Theus Mago transformation: subtly glitched beats blending into rave-damaged heart.
Finally, Ketiov offers his own interpretation with the "Mexico Tour (Ketiov Remix)", steering the energy toward classic house sensibilities. This is a secret bomb for the after-hours, built on a solid drum framework, seductive pianos, driving percussions, and a resonant, pushy bassline that propels the groove relentlessly forward.

The prolific Mexican label Duro kicks off the second half of the year with an explosion of rhythm and movement courtesy of the duo Factory Setup. Their highly anticipated EP, "Afrikka", lands on June 27, 2025, promising a deep dive into hypnotic grooves, and infectious percussions.
Factory Setup, the project born from the synergy of Joseeph and Zhino – both residents of Guadalajara's iconic Bar Américas. Their approach, which unearths forgotten gems from the late '80s, '90s, and 2000s and combines them with contemporary freshness, finds its ultimate expression in "Afrikka," a work celebrating the vibrant connection between Latin and African rhythms.
The sonic journey begins with "Afrikka (Original Mix)", which exposes the raw backbone of the groove, allowing the percussive mystique and captivating vocals to take center stage. This leads seamlessly into "Flow First (Original Mix)", a hypnotic cut that maintains its intoxicating essence by stripping away the piano, revealing a deeper, constant pulse that ensnares you in its wave.
Adding an unyielding dimension, the EP includes the "Flow First (Hardvard Bass Remix)". With solid drums and demented synthesizers, Hardvard Bass constructs a sonic voyage where a booming bassline guides you through a shower of synths. It's a tech house-oriented track that pushes the energy to new limits, perfect for the dancefloor's most intense moments.
Next, the energy ignites with "Afrikka (Stab Mix)", a pure Latin house anthem that transports you directly to a sun-drenched dancefloor. Its ancient African percussions fuse with psychedelic vocals and an insistent, rhythmic stab, creating a groove you simply won't want to stop. The EP then beautifully circles back with "Flow First (Piano Mix)", where a playful array of drums and percussions intertwines with a piano that simply invites you to move, as soothing vocals envelop you in a rhythmic spiral, lifting both soul and body in an uninterrupted dance.
Factory Setup's "Afrikka" is more than just an EP; it's a celebration of global rhythm, an invitation to a complete surrender to the groove.
