Sideways. Who Are We?

We are an underground house and techno label based in the South East corner of the UK currently in our fourth year. We evolved from a group of like minded DJs, promoters and producers who together have supplied the underground entertainment in our area for the last twenty years.
A platform for new emerging talent, we started locally but this soon expanded with remixes and signings from further afield. We are serious about music. We do what we do because we love it and we believe in older values. Every release is mastered properly whether it’s digital or vinyl by Chris Alexander @ Full Range in Brighton.

We aren’t big or clever, we jump up and down at parties just like you.
There are radio shows, mixes and tracks to download. Check out the site.
If you’re a producer or dj yourself or just enjoy dancing, drop us a line….

Keydin – Loose Hands – Out Now


Following on from his remix of Citizen Black’s ‘Rinse Repeat’ and remixes for  Cubism and Stripped Digital, Keydin’s third release for Sideways finds him in deep groovy tech mode. A warm pad sits comfortably in the background throughout, whilst the the stripped down groove is layered with subtle jazzy rhythms. Combine these with a moody walking bassline and plenty of squeaks & bleeps to wander around the brain, and you have a track that truly showcases Keydin’s intelligent approach to deep tech house.

Promoter and DJ for London night Dropout, Guy Hornsby, makes his first appearance on Sideways, ahead of his forthcoming EP for us later in the year. His remix takes Loose Hands into even deeper territory, with a dark, trippy and almost sinister take on the original. A moody bass wallows underneath, whilst clever piano licks provide an altogether different melodic stance, plunging the track further into darkness. Serious music that isn’t just necessarily aimed at the dancefloor, concentrated more on mood and atmosphere.

Available now at Whatpeopleplay, Beatport and all other good digital outlets.

My favourite Sideways release so far, the original is lovely, deep, melodic house. And the remix isn’t bad either.
