The return of a titan to Rekids
Earlier this month, veteran British producer Mark Broom once again left his mark on the international circuit with the release of his long-awaited Touch EP. Released on May 8th under Rekids, the iconic label headed by Radio Slave, this new work represents Broom's fourteenth appearance on the record label family since his debut in 2019. Following the success of his previous Showtime EP in 2024, the artist regains control of the BPMs with a proposal that distills mastery in synthesis and a deep knowledge of the dance floor.
Anatomy of a relentless groove
The release, cataloged as REKIDS288, is structured into four tracks designed with millimeter precision for the most demanding clubs. The EP traces a sonic journey that evolves from the warmth of house to the mechanical rawness of pure techno.
- Touch: The title track leads with nostalgic vocals and a disco-house hybrid with a marked jackin' character.
- Eyes: An exercise in tension and release where Broom squeezes the filters over a looped sample, ideal for the peak moments of the night.
- MXM: The B-side changes the rules of the game, entering techno territory with a robust groove, driving percussion, and an incessant synthetic spiral.
- Don't: The definitive closer, starring a punchy drum line and synthesizer stabs that evoke the energy of strobe lights.

Timeless mastery in the booth
Mark Broom's ability to mutate between genres without losing his sonic identity is the true triumph of this release. With more than three decades of active career, the Briton proves that he does not need to reinvent the wheel, but rather perfect it. Touch EP is not just a collection of club tools, it is a statement of absolute relevance by one of the most solid pillars of the European electronic scene.
