Eight tracks, five artists: Haze Music, Vol. 1 works as a compact map of the label’s collaborations. Here is the sequence.

It opens with Limits feat. Farafi (Afro House, 124 BPM), followed by Riders on the Storm (Nu Disco, 125 BPM). Reviver, by Haze-M and Malek Mhedhbi (Indie Dance, 125 BPM), leads into Pump Up the Jam (Indie Dance, 124 BPM).

The second half turns melodic: Echoes of Sorrow (128 BPM), then Joline with Raidyn (124 BPM), then Mahadeva, credited to Rauschhaus, Haze-M and Zanjma (122 BPM). Oya closes the release (123 BPM).

Tempos stay between 122 and 128 BPM, which makes the compilation easy to move through in a DJ set. Genre tags are filing systems; the listening is what counts.
