AMAND makes his debut on DIKI Records with the ‘Let It Be’ EP, a striking two-track release that captures the soul of melodic house with emotive depth and dancefloor power. Building on a catalogue that already includes acclaimed appearances on All Day I Dream and collaborations with Lost Desert and Capoon, the Belgian producer refines his sonic language here into something both atmospheric and unapologetically club-ready.

This is a meaningful first appearance on a label with serious electronic music heritage, most notably as the home of The Age Of Love, and the pairing of legacy and forward motion runs through every minute of the record. The title track is a slow build of rolling grooves and luminous chords that opens into a powerful peak-time crescendo, while never letting go of the subtle emotional thread that has become a signature of AMAND’s productions.

On the flipside, we get to premiere ‘Aurora’, a track that pulls the EP into deeper, more hypnotic territory. Layered atmospheres, slow-burning tension and immersive textures weave together into a journey that feels equally at home on late-night floors and sunrise sets. It is a confident, considered piece of melodic house that rewards close listening just as much as it does the dance.

DIKI Records continues to bridge eras with releases like this, drawing a clear line between the label’s iconic past and the wave of contemporary producers shaping melodic house today. AMAND’s first chapter on the label is a strong one, and it makes the bigger picture of the ‘Let It Be’ EP feel all the more exciting.

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