• Solomun Launches ‘Love Recycled’ Record Label

  Inaugural Release, “Love Recycled 4,” Drops June 27 Featuring a Fresh Take on Change’s “Angel In My Pocket” Renowned DJ and house music icon Solomun has officially launched a brand-new imprint, Love Recycled, breathing new life into his long-standing concept of reinterpreting classic tracks for modern dancefloors. The new label builds on the legacy of Solomun’s original Love Recycled series, which first emerged in 2011 with a trio of house-infused reworks of iconic pop and R&B records. Among them was a standout rendition of Michael McDonald’s 1982 hit “I Keep Forgettin’ (Every Time You’re Near),” which quickly became a favourite in club circuits around the world. Now, 14 years on, Solomun is expanding the project into a full-fledged label platform. The first official release under the Love Recycled banner will arrive on Friday, June 27, featuring “Love Recycled 4”—a contemporary reimagining of Change’s 1980 disco anthem “Angel In My Pocket.” The launch of Love Recycled marks a pivotal evolution in Solomun’s creative journey, offering a space not only for his own interpretations but also for a wider collective of artists. “Now that Love Recycled has grown into its own label, the vision expands beyond Solomun himself,” according to the label. “A new wave of world-class artists will take part, continuing the mission of celebrating and reimagining the classics.” With its inaugural release poised to honour the past while pushing sonic boundaries forward, Love Recycled sets the stage for a fresh era of dance music nostalgia; recrafted for today’s global audience.
