John Cala makes a striking debut on Henri Bergmanns’ Automatik imprint with ‘Sleep,’ a two-track EP that cements his status as one of the most promising new names in house and techno. With recent releases on respected labels like Siamese, Armada, and When Stars Align, Cala continues to carve out a sound that’s both driving and emotionally resonant.

The title track, ‘Sleep,’ is a rhythmic club record powered by an African vocal, while ‘Afterparty,’ a collaboration with Rivellino, takes an electrifying turn. Its pulsating synths and thunderous energy capture the chaos and euphoria of late-night dance floors. With support from tastemakers including Adriatique, CamelPhat, and Solomun, John Cala’s soundscapes are quickly resonating with global audiences.

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

Release Date: July 11th, 2025. Buy Here
