To celebrate 20 years as D-Nox & Beckers, Sprout are proud to release the first of a series of EPs from the famed duo.

German dance music royalty, the pair have spent much of their lives exploring their shared love of electronic grooves and soaring melody. As already successful solo artists in the ‘90s, the pair met in clubland and decided to team up, launching what has become one of the most enduring and globally recognised duos in dance music. Signed to everyone who matters, they have an undeniable talent for massive grooves and earworm harmonics that have slayed dancefloors around the world!

This EP sees them updating a stone cold classic from their extensive back catalogue and introducing brand new music.. First up, ‘Astral’ starts deep and housey. Rhodsey stabs immediately add an organic groove before the low end grunt of kick and bass do their magic. Building tension through layers of percussion, the track thunders forward like an out of control train heading for nirvana. Reaching your destination is a given (of course) and this the best way to travel!

Next up, a Beckers 2005 funkathon, ‘Fake.’ At a time when minimal techno and electro house were starting to define clubland, Beckers infectious grooves were like manna from heaven. For the 2024 update the bass takes on a more analogue feel loosing none of the funk of the original. The vocal is more prominent adding to the overall vibe; really amping up the energy. This is going to be huge this summer!

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