we are always open for new and fresh music for our labels, but since we receive so many demo-tracks we kindly request you to send a personal message to demo@rejected.nl with a direct link where we can listen to the tracks (e.g. soundcloud). please do not send us any download links. and it would be great if you could let us know why we should release your music. unfortunately we don’t have enough time to reply to every mail. we will contact you if the tracks fit one of our labels. thank you for your understanding!
dusty house room 2!
rejected’s dusty house series got off to the finest of starts with room 1. featuring the tracks ‘empty trash’ and the stunning ’sweep the floor’ by joris voorn, it instantly became a dj favourite, finding support from the world’s leading lights. how do you follow up such a big release? with another of course! check out room 2. another two choice cuts of voorn at his best. taking oldskool samples and sensibilities, and matching them with new school muscle, he presents the incredible ‘chase the mouse’ and ‘we’re all clean’. which works best? well thats for you to decide. But we know from joris’s road tests that these are set to follow on from the success of room 1, and we’ll be hearing them for many many months to come! supported by dj hell, brothers vibe, 2000 and one, shinedoe, michel de hey and many, many, many more. 
new rejected track out on figure!
it’s been a while but joris voorn and edwin oosterwal teamed up again and they have just released another bomb. this time not on one of their own labels but on len faki’s figure label. it’s a split platter with slam. slam’s contribution is an absolute monster, a huge peak-time, dark-as-you-like floor smasher. rejected’s slyly named “peanuts” sounds like the best remix that never came out of a certain similarily nut-based anthem from a couple of years ago … no gimmick though, this is a perfectly constructed piece of dancefloor business, just those drums on their own would have been a must buy tune! 
this sunday at the whoosah
just want to let you people know that edwin oosterwal is playing a special back to back set with dutch wunderkind pitto this sunday, august 9 at the whoosah in scheveningen. be there or be …
hotlips finally :)
still riding high on the wave of support for joris voorn’s ‘dusty house ep’ (check the overall beatport chart, it’s already at number 4!) we return with a release that features two summer bombs.
first up and opening the release in fantastic style is ‘hotlips’. edwin oosterwal and his buddy warren fellow, deliver a cut that has already gained cult status in the netherlands. built around a trademark ‘rejected’ groove, its simplicity is its strength. super solid house beats woven together with the laidback vocal hook, create a sexy dancefloor mover.
fred trumpet, delivers the ‘last call’ to all those looking to sample the wonderful breath fueled instruments. ‘retteketet’ is without doubt one of the biggest tracks of the year, set to take the summer season by storm. a horn line that could’ve been lifted from the finest of soul bands to those of gansta-town 1940’s. with its eastern oboe break for good measure, it is a true delight. sys, for those of you who are also tired of the brass, and read this with a sense of fear, do not despair. if you only play one more horn sampling track this year, make sure its this one!
new joris voorn on rejected!
hot on the heels of one of 2009’s hottest tracks to date, pitto’s ‘feelin’ (see below), comes the next golden nugget on our label. this time we bring you the first release of an exciting new series called dusty house. the dusty house series sees us first enter room 1. inside we find two choice cuts by joris voorn. ’sweep the floor’ finds us delving into oldskool territory. tricky hi-hats, get eaten up by the subtle marching bassline that increases in strength. a cheeky guitar lick, horn stabs, vocal drop and we’re off. it’s a floor burner of the highest order, and one that will keep the floor grooving throughout! ’empty trash’ (you following the theme right?), shows voorn’s skill of injecting his techno weight into his house productions. here he gives us menacing synths, that stalk us. yet when primed and at their most dangerous, perfectly timed, he drops the vocal, and wraps us in the comforting bassline. support by luciano, karotte, gregor tresher, 2000 and one, tobi neumann and many more.
out now rejected 006 featuring pitto!
timing could not be better for pitto to be dropping ‘feelin’ on our label rejected. memories of classic cassius releases come flooding back as you hear the piano, and filtered disco vocal gently coming in. a splash of disco, 90’s italo and naughties vocal house, make for a perfectly constructed feel good house smash. totally fresh for 2009. already supported by dj’s like dubfire, laurent garnier, pete tong, dj hell, bob sinclair, francois k, karotte, raresh, anja schneider and many more. the track is out now on vinyl and will be available on beatport as of april 8 2009. enjoy!
