Boots & Legs has built its name as a haven for house music with deep emotional pull, releasing gems that echo the golden era of synth-laden grooves while pushing into fresh territory. The label thrives on collaborations that blend nostalgia with modern drive, attracting producers who understand the underground’s hunger for tracks that hit both heart and floor.
Distance teams up with Ungaro and Phil Anker for Moments in Paradise Remixes, a five-track EP that reimagines their originals through the hands of elite talent. Dropping fresh this year, it features reinterpretations by Brain De Palma, Asa Tate, Rhode & Brown, Jaisiel, and Super Sound Global—names that carry weight across the global house circuit. Each brings their distinct edge, turning the core warmth of synth-drenched melancholia into something urgent and alive, tailored for DJs who dig deep into crates for those transcendent moments.
Brain De Palma’s take on Paradise injects a sharp pulse that recalls Italo’s shimmering drive, perfect for building euphoria in packed rooms. Asa Tate reshapes Moments with layers that evoke bittersweet nostalgia, drawing dancers into a hypnotic sway. Rhode & Brown deliver a Paradise version brimming with infectious momentum, the kind that fuels back-to-back sets in hidden spots. Jaisiel’s spin on Moments adds a sleek propulsion, channeling synthpop’s electric thrill for late-night transitions. Super Sound Global closes strong on Paradise, weaving global influences into a groove that pulses with underground fire.
This EP captures the essence of house’s enduring appeal—tracks born from collaboration, designed to connect in the shadows of the scene. Distance, Ungaro, and Phil Anker lay the foundation, but these remixers elevate it, creating weapons for selectors who chase that raw connection between artist and crowd. In the world of house, where every release fights for rotation, Moments in Paradise Remixes stands out as a masterclass in reinvention, proving why the underground keeps pulling us back.
