Citizens Of Vice finally launches its 2025 season with “Meraki Vol. 2” – a Greek term meaning to pour your soul, creativity, and love into your work – and this vibrant compilation does just that, blending Disco, Italo Disco, and Balearic flavours. The six-track release showcases talents like Secret Soul Society, Mass Density Human, Lanowa, Gus Paterson, Ed Mahon (SXDNS068), and Somethin’ Sanctified, offering a sun-kissed, dancefloor-ready experience. True to its name, the label pours passion into curating eclectic electronic sounds, delivering another spot-on selection perfect for both poolside lounging and late-night grooves.

Premiered here, Ed Mahon’s contribution is a delicious Nu Disco gem, radiating warmth with lush synth leads, breezy vocals, and an irresistibly smooth rhythm. The track embodies a carefree, mojito-by-the-pool vibe, showcasing Mahon’s knack for crafting immersive, melodic dance music. With prior releases on NEIN, Paper, Emerald & Doreen, Paisley Dark, Sprechen, and Hot Digits, just to name a few, his signature sound – polished yet effortlessly cool – fits seamlessly into the VA’s sun-drenched aesthetic, making “Letting Go” an instant highlight and a testament to the Meraki spirit of heartfelt artistry.

You can find (and buy) this and other music pearls on the Juno Download page of the label.
