Tropical Melons (2026 Mixes) by 2000 and One

2000 and One's noughties track "Tropical Melons" lands on Rekids in late July 2026, reissued with a new mix from the artist, Dylan Hermelijn, himself, alongside fresh remixes from label debutant Bart Skils and Rekids regular Mark Broom. Originally released via Hermelijn's 100% Pure in 2007 and championed by the likes of Sven Väth, "Tropical Melons" remains a genre-blurring club cut that has lost none of its impact, now re-released and building on the reissue of 2000 and One's "Wan Poku Moro" on Rekids in 2024.

Opening the record, Bart Skils adds to the already heavily synth-laced original, sharpening its edges while preserving the lose-your-mind energy that made it such a standout. Mark Broom follows with his signature drum work: raw, muscular, and driven by a jackin' groove as the original's dubbed-out melody washes over its rhythm. On the flip, Dylan Hermelijn revisits the track himself with a new 2026 mix, cleaned up and nudged forward with a subtle increase in pace, while keeping the irresistible pull of his original fully intact.

Founded in 2006, Radio Slave's Rekids expanded with the techno-focused Rekids Special Projects in 2017 and its latest sublabel, REK'D, in 2024. With Matt Edwards as sole A&R, Rekids continues to champion emerging and established artists alike, remaining a trusted home for house and related sounds, with recent releases from DJ Minx, Butch, Tal Fussman, and more.
