Fritz Kalkbrenner’s ‘Calling You’ places God’s presence in dance music at the top of mind. It may not always be verbalized, but God and devout spirituality is sometimes buckled to rave music. With that notion in mind, here are 9 releases that would fit nicely into a Sunday set, reminding you to never miss a Sunday set.
In this collection you will find music by Fritz Kalkbrenner, Tinlicker, Gorje Hewek & Izhevski, Ryan Davis, Pretty Pink, Terri B!, Soleil Carrillo, Death on the Balcony, LUKE, Mr. Probz, Gilligan Moss, and The String Cheese Incident. This will be the first edition of this series, considering the mass sea of releases that could work on a Sunday set, especially Sunday nights that go progressive house, like Anton Tumas to closing out Love Long Beach Festival.
Fritz Kalkbrenner ‘Calling You’
Fritz Kalkbrenner‘s most recent release ‘Calling You’ has been winning airtime around the world through Mambo Radio (Ibiza), Move Radio (Miami), FM Delta 90.3 (Buenos Aires), and Futuregroove FM (Tokyo), and Spotify’s Electronic Rising today. The release is primed for the master ‘spiritual essentials’ collection alongside ‘Sky and Sand’, a minimal techno record that will never age, produced with his brother Paul.
Based out of Berlin, Fritz is currently resetting following his Kontinentego Tour throughout Germany, Spain, and Switzerland, continuing to evolve his sets playing at pop-ups and coveted places such as O – der Klub, preparing for a night alongside Reinier Zonneveld and Alignment presented by Isle of Summer in Munich. ‘Calling You’ is a powerful, club-driven statement that blends energetic house grooves with melodic depth and emotional pull. The Berlin-based artist combines a driving rhythm, warm shimmering synths, and an instantly memorable vocal line into a track that works on both the dancefloor and car stereo.
Tinlicker – ‘Glasshouse’
Utrecht, Netherlands Tinlicker is here to push boundaries for the sake of art and chase what they’re passionate about, rather than choosing to blend in and play it safe. “We don’t like living safe,” one of the members once said. When it comes to making music, “there’s only one rule: we have to like it.”
With ‘Glasshouse’ featuring the sky-scraping vocals of Julia Church, as heard on records by Slander and Mr. John Summit, it is a grand Sunday track as it makes you appreciate being at home, whether that is in the living room or on the dancefloor, and reminds you to take care of the fragile things of life. Tinlicker’s new 5-track LP is out now with more productions fitting this month’s spiritual essentials collection, such as ‘God in You’, and rest easy, Anjuna fam — these two scientists will be back in the US when the flowers begin to bloom.
Ryan Davis ‘Dimmed’ (Gorje Hewek & Izhevski Remix)
Ryan Davis‘ EP Home receives two new remixes courtesy of the United Kingdom’s Vessels and Russian producers Gorje Hewek & Izhevski. Vessels’ reinterpretation of ‘Obsidian’ elaborates on the original’s deep and dark undertones, laying otherworldly pads and cascading arpeggios over a kick-heavy drumline. Conversely, Gorje Hewek & Izhevski present a lighter, melodic rework of Davis’ ‘Dimmed’; the duo build on Davis’ organic sound design to compose a piece that is both introspective and refined.
Mr. Probz – Praying To A God’ (LUKE Remix)
The LUKE remix of ‘Praying to a God’ transforms Mr. Probz‘s original into a deep house secret weapon — a spiritually charged journey that feels intimate and powerful without being over the top. Mr. Probz, born Dennis Princewell Stehr, is a Dutch producer and singer-songwriter known for global hits and Grammy-nominated success, with collaborations spanning hip hop and dance music heavyweights such as T.I., Chris Brown, 50 Cent, and David Guetta. His resilience, including rebuilding after a devastating 2013 studio fire, continues to inform the depth and authenticity that make tracks like this resonate.
Pretty Pink – ‘Drifting’ [Deep Woods Records]
Encompassing Pretty Pink‘s vision of allowing people to drift away during her sets, ‘Drifting’ on Deep Woods Records is accompanied by stunning vocals by Jyll and fits in easily with a Sunday, self-reflection set as the words speak of forgiving your darkness. The melodic house cut from Pretty also points to her new Deep Woods Open Air project, recently popping off at the Wolkezwei in Germany with Yotto.
If you did not catch Pretty Pink along her recent North American tour with stops at venues such as CODA, 43 East, and Superior Ingredients, start planning for her Okeechobee debut in March. For now, here is her spiritual essential, ‘Drifting’, then head over to her channels to sample her most recent rave contribution, ‘Every You’, the 2025 rendition of a classic, Placebo’s ‘Every You, Every Me’, as well as sets that are laying the foundation for her becoming the best DJ of 2026.
Terri B! & Soleil Carrillo ‘We Rise’ [Carrillo Music Group]
For Terri B!, speed in the studio never meant compromise: “To move quickly doesn’t mean I reduced quality — I got very good at the vibe and the spirit of what I was trying to achieve.” That mastery of songwriting and studio craft shaped her immediate response to Soleil Carrillo‘s track: “When I get a track like Soleil’s, I immediately knew I wanted to talk about the pain my eyes and heart are experiencing towards Latin culture and brown culture, and I don’t apologize for being honest, but I want everyone to be able to share this planet.” And after “1,000 releases and singles later,” she states with clarity and conviction, “this is who I am.” On that note, ‘We Rise’ on Carrillo Music is a groove that will bring the whole nation soulful.
Death on the Balcony ‘The Source’ [All Day I Dream]
With ‘The Source’ on the Summer Sampler from All Day I Dream, Death on the Balcony deliver a deep house offering that strikes the primal bone while creating a beat that may just instill self-love.
Behind the project are Mark Caramelli and Paul Hargreaves, two UK producers whose decade-long dedication to dance music has shaped a globally respected sound. With releases and remixes across labels including All Day I Dream, Anjunadeep, Suprematic Sounds, Nervous, and Do Not Sit, they’ve built a reputation that will hopefully last as long as a Pharaoh. We point to their ‘Beyond Measure’ on Suprematic Sounds next.
Gilligan Moss ‘You Are The Greatest’ [Foreign Family Collective]
In a recent interview with the Chicago-born, New York-based Gilligan Moss, we asked about ‘You Are the Greatest’ off their recent album Speaking Across Time, and the duo shared, “I think the album title (Speaking Across Time) draws from a quote by one of my poetry teachers from college, who talks about speaking across time as the reason that he writes poetry and creates art, with the idea that you’re talking to somebody in the future.”
If that is not spiritual enough, why ‘You Are the Greatest’ makes the spiritual essentials is simple — it’s important to hear that sometimes, and to remind us all that “if you don’t use it, you lose it.”
