SoundSpace has published a new interview with CRYME looking back at the first year of SEVEN. It gives a warm and honest picture of how the label has grown, what the team has learned, and where things are heading next.
CRYME talks about how fast the year has gone and how none of the team came from a label background, so much of the work has been learning by doing. He explains that running SEVEN has been both exciting and demanding, and that the support from artists, DJs and the wider scene has helped the label stay true to its values.
The interview also covers the London Boy Remixes EP. CRYME explains that the remixers were chosen because they already loved and supported the original track, and he was delighted when all four agreed to take part straight away.
Berlin itself plays a big role in the story. CRYME talks about how the city’s clubs, dancers and queer nightlife shaped SEVEN’s identity, and how important it is to create space for joy, inclusion and community within the scene.
SoundSpace also dives into SEVEN’s plans for the coming year. CRYME confirms that the new shop and community space in Berlin is well underway and expected to open in early 2026. He also shares a look at the upcoming release schedule, including music from Baka G, Stef de Haan, Moody Mehran, Ackermann, and an all FLINTA* VA curated by Cinthie.
The full article offers a thoughtful look at SEVEN’s beginnings and the direction the label is taking as it moves into its second year. You can read the complete interview on SoundSpace here:
