“This compilation series is mainly dedicated to putting out the amazing work of artists who drive Unreleased events forward, giving them a platform for the recorded side of their work,” says Arodes, founder of Unreleased. “It’s about building a community of artists who share a passion for pushing the boundaries of sound, offering them the freedom to explore their own corner of electronic music.”
Arodes, known for his emotive and atmospheric sound, has been on a meteoric rise in the electronic music world. His recent tracks “Use Somebody” with Redd and “Kidz” have further solidified his reputation for seamlessly blending melodic depth with dance floor energy. His growing influence has also led to major collaborations, including a remix project for Rüfüs du Sol and Tiësto, further bridging the gap between underground and mainstream electronic music.
His work has earned him the support of industry heavyweights like Adriatique, Black Coffee, Rüfüs du Sol, and Camelphat. His music is regularly featured at some of the world’s most prestigious festivals and venues, including Tomorrowland, Burning Man, Ushuaïa Ibiza, and Brooklyn Mirage. His recent Future Stars Mix only further cements his place among the top rising stars in the industry.
As Unreleased Records continues to evolve, Arodes remains committed to fostering a community-driven movement within electronic music. With "Game Changers" now available, the label sets the stage for a new era of innovation, giving rising producers the exposure they need to make their mark on the global dance scene.
Beyond the release, 2025 is shaping up to be a milestone year for Arodes and Unreleased Records. The label is gearing up for a collaborative event with Zamna Festival during Miami Music Week and is preparing to host its first-ever festival in Mendoza, Argentina. These high-profile events follow Unreleased Records’ recent expansion into the Mediterranean club circuit, with residencies secured at Mykonos' Void Club and Ibiza’s Playa Soleil.
