Here we go again 📣 My collab ‘U Disappear’ with @cortescomusic is out now on @lnoe_label !
After their ‘All U Do’ EP in 2024 and our first collaboration ‘One’ in February, bringing them back to the label was an easy decision. Really happy to team up again on this one.
It’s always great to see artists getting behind the music on LNOE. Thanks to @djhernancattaneo , @pappa.anthony , @sentremusic , @paulvandyk , @henrysaiz , @lloydbarwoodmusic , @eelkekleijn and more for the support.

Genre lines are fading, and @djsashaofficial & @cortescomusic are leaning into that shift rather than resisting it.
Their new collaboration “One,” out now as of February 13, 2026 on @lnoe_label , reflects a mindset that prioritizes energy and narrative over rigid categorization. For Cortese, the structure of thinking in fixed genres has largely dissolved, shaped by both their own evolving production style and the broader experimental direction of electronic music.
While UKG, electro, and breaks still surface in moments where they feel right, the framework is no longer built around labels. Instead, it is built around flow, tension, and cohesion across eras and moods.
In this conversation with Cortese, the Manchester-based duo reflect on post-genre club culture, unexpected influences from rap producers and early 2000s rock, and how long-form energy control allows them to move across styles without losing identity.
