Playground Records presents its 68th main catalogue release, Late Night Shit, a posthumous work from our beloved Canadian-Mexican friend and artist Ali X. This record had already been prepared and sent for distribution during Ali’s lifetime, and he was deeply enthusiastic and full of ideas about its release. With three original tracks and a remix by Chicago’s BRKN, Late Night Shit embodies everything Ali X stood for: raw, fearless energy where House and Indie collide in wild, dirty grooves made for the after-hours. Distorted basslines, twisted rhythms and cool, no-rules attitude mark a sound that is unapologetic, sweaty and pure late-night chaos—just as Ali envisioned.

After consulting Ali’s closest friends, collaborators Don Jon and GuzzX (who appear on two of the original tracks), and BRKN (who delivers the remix), we agreed to honour his wish and release this record exactly as planned. All proceeds will be donated to his family as a way of supporting those he loved most. Late Night Shit now stands as a tribute to Ali X—a fearless creator, a generous soul, and an unforgettable friend. His spirit lives on in the music, in his collaborators, and in everyone who dances to his sound. Ali X forever
