Bucharest-based DJ/producer GruuvElement’s steps onto Damian Lazarus’ revered Rebellion imprint with ‘Insane’, a powerful four-track EP landing on 23rd January. Known for his meticulous rhythm and innate command of hypnotic grooves, GruuvElement’s has appeared on labels such as elrow Music, Solid Grooves, Moan, and Paco Osuna’s Mindshake, among others. Now with his ‘Insane’ EP, GruuvElement’s sets the tone for 2026, continuing his explorative fusions of minimal and tech house, channelling the peak-time pulse of the club while maintaining his refined percussive identity.

“‘Insane’ is the moment the night snaps into high gear-chaotic energy wrapped in tight grooves, a controlled explosion designed to push the crowd past their limits and into pure instinct.” – GruuvElement’s.

Opening the EP, ‘Insane’ drives forward with tight rolling percussive grooves, warped vocal stabs, and a feverish energy that escalates the dancefloor into full ignition. Up next, ‘Hey’ steps into a more playful space, built around a bouncing rhythmic backbone and lively vocals that spark a dynamic dialogue between DJ and crowd. ‘Boujee’ leans into attitude and swagger as slick percussion meets refined textures, crafting a track that walks with elevated elegance. Closing the EP, ‘Hipnotico’ dives deep into his late-night roots where mesmerising patterns drift around soft trumpets, enveloping the listener into a slow-burning hypnosis.

You can now listen to the full premiere of ‘Insane’ exclusively on When We Dip Radio. Enjoy!
