No Good Bye - 2026-02-26

Welcome back everyone. It's been quite a busy period with lots of moving parts, but hopefully we should be back to normal operations with new music every week.

This week we have a list of 30 tracks that hopefully will brighten your days to come. It's once again a quite eclectic list with different genres intertwining. Everyone should find something to match their taste and maybe pass it on or include in your own curated playlists. Great music should never stay hidden.

We have a few notable mentions I'd like to send your way. First is "Opus" by Alex Hövelmann — a beautifully understated piece from the Cologne-based producer, released on his Fenestra imprint. Built around peaceful piano lines layered over relaxed grooves and intricate sound details, it has a meditative quality that rewards close listening. The kind of track that slows the room down in the best possible way.

Next is Maxi Meraki's new take on the 2000 French house classic "You Are My High" by Demon vs. Heartbreaker. It's a track that has a special place in my heart (as always, I recommend listening to the extended version on Beatport).

"Kęstutis IV" is one of the pieces from "Didysis Čiurlionis", an electronic music symphony inspired by the works of Mikalojus Konstantinas Čiurlionis, where classical imagination merges with contemporary sound architecture. It's quite refreshing — well worth a listen.

And lastly we have a release from longstanding Mushroom Jazz maestro Mark Farina, teaming up with Homero Espinosa and vocalist Dani Siciliano to create the sublime "Stay on My Mind". Concocted as a tribute of sorts to the disco and electronic music pioneers of the past, Stay on My Mind sets the tone for what's to come.

We hope you'll find more interesting music and hidden gems in this week's selection. As always — stay safe and have fun. Spring is "almost" around the corner.
