Labels like Diggin' Records don't hand out debuts to just anyone. The tech house imprint has built its name on a specific, exacting sound: rolling, groove-first, no filler. So when Fifi Forte finally got the call, it wasn't a lucky break, it was the end of a long apprenticeship.
What's actually on the EP?
'Gain My Trust EP' is three tracks, tightly sequenced. The title cut is the biggest of the set: a rolling low-end groove at 130 BPM in Bb major, crisp percussion, and a vocal-led hook that carries most of the energy. '444' pulls the other way, deeper and more hypnotic, built for the part of the night when the room stops needing a hook and just needs a pulse. 'Ur Just Fine' closes things out with a warmer, Latin-leaning swing and the clearest nod to the '90s house influences that run through Fifi's whole catalogue. None of the three tries to do too much. That restraint is the point.
Why does landing on Diggin' matter?
Fifi Forte didn't arrive on Diggin' Records out of nowhere. She's been putting out records on Hottrax, Deeperfect, Pakate and Libero, the kind of mid-tier tech house labels where producers actually learn their craft in public, track by track, without the safety net of a big name attached. That run has already earned her plays from Jamie Jones, Marco Carola, Joseph Capriati, Dennis Cruz and Nicole Moudaber, heavyweight support for an artist most of the scene is still discovering.
"One of the most promising voices in house music."
A Point Blank Music School graduate with a diploma in Music Production and Sound Engineering, Fifi has also been a regular fixture at Jamie Jones' Paradise parties across Ibiza, London, Manchester and Amsterdam, which is as good a proving ground as underground house offers right now. The Diggin' signing reads less like a breakout and more like a label catching up to what bookers already knew.
Where does she go from here?
This EP follows her earlier 'Geode EP' and slots into a busy run of 2026 UK and European dates. If Diggin' Records keeps its usual pattern, one release rarely stays a one-off: expect this to be the start of a longer relationship rather than a single credit on her discography.
