25th anniversary vinyl reissue. A sonic time capsule wrapped in summer grooves. When Since Then first arrived in 2000, it felt like opening a window to somewhere sun-drenched and far away -- a place where gentle Brazilian rhythms danced effortlessly with the pulse of deep house. Now, a quarter-century later, the album returns to vinyl for the first time, not as a relic, but as a timeless companion. This reissue spins more than just music -- it breathes new life into a moment when sound, place, and feeling merged into something unforgettable. Pooley was ahead of his time, weaving breezy South American textures into club-ready arrangements. Tracks like "900 Degrees" and "Balmes (A Better Life)" still shimmer with warmth and clarity, their melodies floating with an ease that refuses to age. Featuring Rosanna & Zelia and Kirsty Hawkshaw.

Madrid-based Indira Paganotto returns with her third Pooled Music EP. Indira made her debut in 2012, aged just 19, and has spent the intervening years honing her sound and exploring new approaches. Paganotto's father was a DJ in Goa and she grew up with her father's collection of trance, acid, and psychedelic rock records. Her 2014 solo EP Time Out Man blends these inspirations into a pair of evocative house grooves. This development continues with "Kashmir" and "Savannah", both of which find the 24-year-old producer in confident form. Ian Pooley provides a pair of his own trademark dancefloor-focused dubs.

Ian Pooley revisits his beloved 1998 album Meridian with four brand new remixes. Belfast house stars Bicep apply their remix magic for "Cold Wait" streamlining it into a chunky UK house thumper. Oskar Offermann delivers a subtle, grooving UK Garage-inspired take on "Hit N' Run". The B side finds two alternate takes on "What's Your Number" by Mathias 'SHOW-B' Schober, whose remixes manifest themselves in a starry-eyed version that elevates the original's melancholic side, plus a stripped back "Beats N' FX" tool.

Ian Pooley returns to Pooled Music with Turakina EP. The A-side, "Turakina", is a classic Pooley groove, stripped down to its elements then layered with melodic detail that builds over the course of the track. The B-side finds two versions of the deeper, more emotional "Mudou". The original version is in the same "miniature epic" mold of 2012 hit "Compurhythm", while the dub takes a lighter touch to tease out even more of its melancholic nature. The Turakina EP is dedicated to the loving memory of Pooley's beloved dog Basil.

Ian Pooley shares the next part of his legacy with his fifth album, What I Do, after a four-year hiatus. Twenty years into his professional career, he is regarded as both a cult underground DJ and established mainstream producer. As one of the only artists that walks the path between the two, his latest work builds on his past and delivers a polished body of work that sounds both classic and fresh. In the past, Pooley has scoured influences from around the globe -- Detroit, Chicago, Brazil, etc., playing with funk with an emphasis on the groove. Over the course of 15 tracks, What I Do walks a similarly tactile path, refreshing the listener on Pooley's full-bodied and engaging approach but realigning his signature sound. Following on from a critically-appraised release on Innervision, tracks such as "Compurhythm" and "Tale of the Big City" connect firmly with the dancefloor, but also glow with a timelessness not often found in modern day electronic music, while additions such as "Get It On" allow Pooley to experiment with slow hip-hop rhythms and stimulating frequencies. Pooley's vast collection of analog gear and wealth of experience result in a smooth finesse. Pooley is still more than capable of delivering polished productions, learned from his past as a major label recording artist -- "1983" featuring guest vocals from Högni Egilsson and the driving vocal of "Bring Me Up" featuring Dominique Keegan are prime examples. But the move from the major to the underground can be heard in the music with the synth-led journeys and crisp drum rhythms at the heart of this album. The shift from V2 to his own label Pooled Music for this album also firmly states an intention, a step that allows him to develop new artists. Six years since he left his home in Mainz for Berlin, Pooley refuses to surrender to the status quo. He has ripened into an artist unable to be second-guessed and capable of covering more musical territory than most can dream of trying in a lifetime.
