Minor Sounds lined up its first release of 2026 with a label-head statement. Finest Wear is back with Good Vibrations EP, a four-track digital release landing today on February 27 as MS004.
The label’s note set the tone simply. They thanked DJs and listeners for supporting the first run of releases last year, then they introduced this EP as the first drop of the new calendar. If you follow smaller imprints, you know why that matters. The first release of the year tends to define what the label wants to be known for over the next few months.
The release at a glance
Good Vibrations EP arrives as a four-track Deep House package from Finest Wear, and it is built for practical DJ use across different parts of a night. Minor Sounds described the EP as a spread of options that can work early, late, and into the longer after-hours stretch, and that framing fits a four-track release that aims to stay in rotation.
Tracklist:
- If Only You Knew
- Good Vibrations
- Rejoice
- Equinox
Minor Sounds also framed the EP as consistent with the musical approach Finest Wear has developed over time. From what we’ve found, the release leans into “dancefloor-friendly” functionality, and it positions these tracks as tools for build sections and longer groove phases where transitions and pacing do the heavy lifting.
Why this one mattered for Minor Sounds
This release carried extra meaning inside the Minor Sounds story because Finest Wear was presented as the label head. When a label opens the year with its own founder, it usually reads as a clear direction-setter. It puts the imprint’s core identity first, then leaves room for future releases to branch out around that center.
The label also made a point of tying the EP to the momentum of the first few releases.
That kind of message is common in newer catalogs because it tells buyers that the label is paying attention to who has supported the early schedule, and it signals continuity rather than a reset.
Finest Wear background
Finest Wear is the alias of Cenzo Scoglio, originally from London and now based in Oxfordshire. The bio described him as a DJ and producer focused on the deeper side of house music, with influence points that include classic house, deep techno, and soulful electronic music.
For Minor Sounds, the practical takeaway was simple. Good Vibrations EP opens the 2026 schedule with a four-track statement from the label head, and it frames the year around Deep House that is made for real set contexts rather than one-off listening.
