🎛️ Slacks emerges from Philadelphia’s underground with a distinct knack for high-tempo minimal house that balances precision and euphoria. His productions channel an infectious energy, captivating without ever feeling formulaic.
🌍 Operating under Frog Dog Records, his work alongside artists like Zdon exemplifies a sound that feels rooted in tradition while unapologetically forward-thinking. For those seeking grooves that linger long after the night is over, Slacks delivers.

On Locked In
Releasedate: 07.04.2025
Check Bio🎵
More than a year after its last compilation, Amsterdam’s Locked-in returns with a glistening selection of club-ready tracks further anchoring the label’s progressive groove while opening avenues to different sounds and scenes.
Blending minimal techno and ambient aesthetics, Hamburg’s Rupert Marnie opens up the A-side with “Half-Baked Spel”, a mysterious yet dancefloor-ready cut elegantly setting the tone. Norwegian house and techno DJ and producer A:G (Asgeir Giskegjerde) follows up with an escape into trance influenced sounds, delivering a playful, ambitious and infectious bopper. On the flip-side, Barcelona-based Aniano takes things one notch deeper offering a dimmed light minimal groover. With its moody atmosphere and catchy samples, the track gracefully hints at Perlon's catalogue. To close the journey, Frog Dog Records crew member Slacks from Philadelphia takes the listener apart with a very subtle emotional break composition, crafting an intricate and moving piece of music reminiscing of good times.
With four tracks stemming from different parts of the world, Locked-In once again showcases the quality of its curation and the consistency of its sound and vision. This release is dimmed to resonate on both dark and sun-drenched dancefloors.

Shakedown tonight in the loft 11-4 perfect time for you to get a late night groove and still make your Sunday brunch. I’ll be laying down some smooth warmup jams, hit the ticket link or dm addy, come pull up !!!
In two days we got @slacksbro pullin’ up for his Shakedown debut. 🐸🐶
Slacks has been producing and collecting records for 9 years now. As his music taste refined over time he naturally found deep house and similar genres as a perfect medium to connect people through dancing while still maintaining a thoughtful and cultivated atmosphere. He started the label Frog Dog with his friend Zdon of similar talents. Frog Dog was born in 2019 from bizzare modular madness and a silly joke of a new genre called “chic house”. They have put out four physical releases to date with the occasional digital release as a complement. You can find Slacks bouncing around Philadelphia on most weekends, sharing laughs and finding the groove.
You can usually catch Slacks floatin’ around Philly on the weekends—crackin’ jokes, chasin’ vibes, and lockin’ in the groove. This Saturday, he’s on openin’ duties for the one and only @jadalareign .
Tap in. Ticket link in bio.
Very excited to make my @theshakedownphilly debut this Saturday opening for @jadalareign 🤩
Shakedown has been putting on high quality dance events every month now for 24 years! 😵💫😮💨
They continue to be a Philly staple and have always been a favorite of mine, so it’s an honor to shake things down myself.

Jolted Souls is an ambient label with a unique love for cassette release, arguably the best medium for the genre.
