DESCRIPTION:
4 Tracsk Of Vocal Hooked Bass Heavy House / Tech House - Sweden’s Tiger Stripes returns to Rekids with the ‘Dance For Peace’ EP, following on from February’s ‘All Night Long’ and 2024’s ‘I Heard It Through The Bassline’ EPs. Across four warm and funk-fuelled cuts, he delivers another essential selection of House grooves primed for peak-time moments and deep, late-night sessions alike, already supported by Oliver Dollar, Riva Starr, Anja Schneider, and more.

The opening track, ‘Time For Peace,’ is a brilliantly loopy roller, featuring bouncy drums, muted synth motifs, and a vocal swirl of soulful cries that ramp up the energy. It’s a stylish tension-builder, paving the way for ‘Rockin’, a chunky jam with funky melodic riffs buried in the beat and wordless ad libs teasing out the soul. ‘The Street’ keeps the vibe flowing with swinging drums, knotted guitar licks, and subtly filtered vocals worked into a steamy, party-starting groove. Closing things out is ‘A Dance’, a deeper cut drenched in lush chords and hazy vocals—perfect for blissed-out dancefloor moments.

Founder of the Strange Idols label, Tiger Stripes has spent over two decades forging his own path with standout releases on Hot Creations, Get Physical, Kwench Records, and Rekids. After stepping back to focus on his indie-rock project Little Lies, he made a full return in 2024 and quickly recaptured the form that’s made him an international favourite.


After two decades of label-hopping, Mickael Nordgren AKA Tiger Stripes appears to have found a new home on Radio Slave's REKIDS imprint. Dance For Peace is the Swedish house producer's third 12" for the Berlin-based label in less than 12 months, following the excellent 'I Heard It Through The Bassline' and 'All Night Long'. As you'd expect, there's plenty of playable, peak-time ready material on show, starting with the low-slung, non-stop sweatiness of 'Time For Peace', where hooky electric piano licks and echoing spoken word snippets ride a heavy bassline and energy-packed drums. He opts for a sort of DJ Sneak-goes-darkroom flex on driving loop jam 'Rockin', before channelling the spirit of mid-90s early morning garage-house on 'The Street'. To round things off, Norgren offers up the swinging, soul-flecked warmth of 'A Dance'.
