Keep It Cool / Club Sarny

Teej & Objectiv

Bristol duo Objectiv & Teej return to Dispatch Recordings with Keep It Cool / Club Sarny. A heavyweight two-tracker packed with tension, grit, and pure dancefloor precision.

Dispatch Recordings Released 14 November 2025

Objectiv and Teej bring their Bristol-bred synergy to Dispatch Recordings with Keep It Cool / Club Sarny, a two-track roller built for the heads. Over the past seven years, the pair have built an unshakable chemistry through the OCC collective, swapping loops and sculpting ideas until every detail hits just right. This latest release shows that their workflow is more refined than ever.

Keep It Cool opens with crisp percussion and a teasing sense of space before diving into a low-end workout that is all swing and swagger. The sound design feels deliberate, rugged yet clean, and the drop balances heavy groove with surgical restraint. It is a reminder that minimalism, when handled properly, can still make the floor move. The mixdown is immaculate, every hi-hat and snare positioned with intent.

Club Sarny takes a different route, shifting into darker territory with an elastic bassline and a rising sense of pressure. It is the kind of tune that DJs can build a set around, brimming with that Bristol energy the duo are known for. The midrange growl and snapping drums feel made for a packed room, pure system music delivered without compromise.

As ever, Dispatch delivers on quality and identity, presenting two tunes that fit seamlessly into the label’s deep, rolling lineage. For Objectiv and Teej, this marks another milestone in a partnership rooted in trust, progression and an unmistakable shared sound.

Keep It Cool / Club Sarny lands on Beatport and streaming platforms on 14 November 2025, with general release following on 28 November 2025.
