After his great EP together with his production partner Henheimer, a more than cool remix for Unseen., Timo Veranta is now back with his solo EP on Amber Blue and officially opens the release year 2021 of the Amber Music Label Group.

As usual, groove, melody and absolute dancefloor suitability are combined in perfection and make this release a real highlight again. High production standards and a certain feeling for the interaction of the individual sounds characterize Timo's very own sound and make it unmistakably his own.

We are happy to be able to release this EP as a prelude and are proud to have such a great artist in the Amber family. Fancy words, but absolutely right and therefore a warm welcome back: Timo Veranta

Thyladomid - Underpressure (Traum V248)

From a home on the Madeira archipelago, Li-Polymer been a regular on the underground dance industry's imprints for over a decade through music signed to the likes of Balkan Connection, Lowbit and Juicebox Music. A 2014 debut for Particles saw a remix of Matt Rowan followed by a series of original releases on the label's seasonal compilation series before May 2017's "Crystal Serenity" marked a notable highlight. Returning with another twin-track original offering, "Jacaranda" is a rich flowing piece that blossoms through its delicate melodic phrasing that drifts in sultry fashion while a sumptuous delayed motif and uptempo arp add counterpoint joy. A deep kick and light percussive vibe trip across the 9-minute piece with ease in a joyous offering. At over 10-minutes, "All Together We Are More" is redolent in opulent soundscapes that hold sway over muted kick and hi-hat pattern. Evolving gently through subtle melodic variation, textured pads drift across the track as a swathe of phrases entwine before a delayed motif makes its play in the third movement. The result is a compelling piece from the Portuguese artist.

Fresh from remixes of their outstanding "Stoyote" EP on Proton Music, the relatively new musical partnership of LADS & Traumhouse find themselves making their Particles debut. Regulars on such esteemed labels as Rebellion der Tarumer, Nie Wieder Schlafen and Guy J's Lost & Found, the LADS partnership has grown in stature over the past 18 months. Regulars on Proton Music with an array of original music, "Stoyote" was another landmark moment in 2020 which included a collaboration from Traumhouse. Joining forces with the German artist who has featured on the likes of Magician On Duty, A Must Have and Manual Music, the LADS & Traumhouse reworking of "Jacaranda" is a sumptuous offering that revels in low-slung groove and filtered percussive roll. Characterised by a dark and gritty groove with its roots in the original, intelligent use of remix components from the Li-Polymer track blend seamlessly with a swathe of original material from the production trio. The result is a stunning remix that hits its stride in the second half with detuned synth motifs and cascading sonic tapestry.

Another Proton Music regular, Hot TuneiK has created a stir with a new organic sound that witnessed the birth of his "Heightened Senses" EP in February 2020. With Vol. 2 on the horizon in 2021, the Mexican's unique sound has been a favourite on a growing number of labels that include the likes of Balkan Connection, 3rd Avenue and Visceral. Finding an array of releases on Particles that include 2017's "Erase & Rewind" and 2018's "Tulum", Hot TuneiK now returns to the label for the first time since an August 2020 remix of Vidno. Reworking "Jacaranda", the melodic subtlety of the original is retained while a purposeful rhythmic backdrop provides a unique new direction through tape delays and percussive edge. Hitting its stride with an array of new production material that includes a meandering lead synth line and pulsating bassline in the second half, Hot TuneiK showcases talent in abundance.

As Li-Polymer's craftsmanship comes to the fore once more, "Jacaranda" blossoms alongside remixes from LADS, Traumhouse and Hot TuneiK.

Aiden - All Ways (Roger van Lunteren Remix)

The latest release from Clubsonica Records finds D.J. MacIntyre returning for a new single alongside Juan Ibanez who makes his label debut. American artist D.J. MacIntyre made his first appearance on the Colombian imprint in May of 2020 with the chart topping 'Conquistador'. As one of Beatport's perennial best-selling artists, the Santa Barbara resident continues to explore progressive music and its related derivatives through releases via Freegrant Music, Droid9 and his own SLC-6 imprint. Hailing from Argentina, Juan Ibanez has been touted as one of his country's rising talents since first appearing in 2019. Support from world class DJ Hernan Cattaneo, along with releases for Antrim's Or Two Strangers have etched Juan's place amongst progressive music's top up and comers. Now continuing their creative partnership, D.J. MacIntyre and Juan Ibanez land on Clubsonica with 'Haumea', alongside remixes from Fabri Lopez and Andre Moret.

Bound by a love for rhythm and groove, the cross-continental duo have crafted one of their most engaging creations to date in 'Haumea'. Pulsating beats, clattering drums and astral sonics begin the seven-minute journey. Senses heighten as striking chord stabs and cosmic arps unite across a swirling, tension filled backdrop. Anticipatory and dramatic, the main break continues to elevate mood with phasing noise, before a powerful drum roll sparks a thumping drop and electric finale.

Returning to the label and providing the first interpretation of 'Haumea' is Fabri Lopez. With two remixes over the last two years, the Argentinean artist has found a comfortable home on the Colombian imprint. With continued support from progressive music's key tastemakers, Fabri is coming off his best and most prolific year to date. Continuing that momentum as the new year begins, Fabri makes a welcome return to Clubsonica with a powerful remix of 'Haumea'. Backed by a full, driving groove, the Villa Mercedes resident has carved out a strong foundation, complemented with fluid pulses and percussive drive. Electric in design and hypnotic in scope, its glassy arps and shimmering overlays slowly descend over the framework, eventually carrying the piece into an emotive break. As the groove strips down, fragmented melodies and impassioned chord changes rise, opening up for moments of reflective warmth, before a gentle rush shifts energy into a heavenly finale.

The final interpretations of 'Haumea' are provided by Andre Moret who returns to the label for his second appearance. Amidst much praise, the Brazilian's Clubsonica debut 'Recover' landed in January of 2020, setting the course for a breakout year. Droid9, Freegrant Music and Mango Alley also played host to Andre's progressive sounds, while Hernan Cattaneo continued with his steadfast support. Now returning to Clubsonica for his first remix, Andre delivers two stunning renditions of 'Haumea'. Energetic and groovy in equal measure, Andre's main mix perfectly characterizes his clean, buoyant production style. A spacious foundation provides an immense sense of space, as lively percussion and playful electronics carry a wonderful dancefloor sensibility. Fragmented vocals and a shimmering arp further the narrative as the first act evolves, ultimately leading to dramatic break and thrilling drop. Meanwhile, Andre's 'Night' Mix stays to true to the main themes from his main mix, while opting for a fuller groove and greater peak time appeal. Building beautifully, kaleidoscopic arps and a wave of sizzling effects unite for a dynamic moment during the break, perfectly foreshadowing a striking final movement. Two stunning renditions from the fast-rising Brazilian artist, rounding out another must have offering from Clubsonica Records.

Long time friend of the label, Dave Shtorn makes his way back on the label as his brand new track “Good Wood” is ready for you all. Having a release with us during 2020 through his stunning “Winter Flowers”, he now returns with another relaxed and sensational progressive production, this one named as “Good Wood”. We are always over the moon to see him back on the label and we know there are more to come. This is really fresh and melodic! 

On remix duty, Australia and Melbourne bound David Leckenby makes a welcome return to the label. He’s a producer that we always held high with his superb melodic progressive productions. This is yet another winner from the talented producer. Warm moods, melodic progressions and that superb atmosphere built to this stunning journey. It’s as brilliant as always and we are thrilled to see him back on our PHW Elements division. 

We are equally happy to see another return on the label as Ireland based Silinder makes another stylish return. A lot is said already about his music over the years and this is just another beauty from him, we let it speak on its own. A bit more stripped down, packed with some great elements to spice this release with yet another winner. He always takes us on a journey and this surely is one from start to finish. 

Lovely stuff from all of you as always, hats off guys!

What is it in music we like? Is it rhythm? Melodies? The groove, or that part where you just can't stop dancing to it? Or is it the feeling that you are totally in touch with the song; or that subtle unexpected surprise when the beat finally drops? For Jaksa Pavicevic, it's all of that... and more! What makes a song really stand out to him is emotion. With his label he tries to bring us the finest house and techno music- crossing borders, genre-blending.

Born in 2005, 'A Must Have' built itself a nice foundation. 2007 kicked off the first few releases by head honcho Jaksa Pavicevic, Tom D Vox and Sydney Roy, followed by remixes from Gui Sheffer aka Tropical Highlight and Sandji. The label soon drew attention. By summer 2008 the label was brought under Proton Management, kicking off a new era for the label. Soon 'A Must Have' became a firm base for young, upcoming producers like Marsbeing, Bollo and Shane Robinson.

2010 saw the first album released on the label. Soundprank's 'Endgame', a 12 tracker debut album by this talented Canadian, gained wide attention from artists like Chloe Harris, John Digweed, Nick Warren and Taho. By this year, Jaksa's unique eye for talent also brought some interesting artists like Leigh Myles and Ju.N to the label. While their original work may not be what one might expect from a dance label, a great team of remixers like Pacco & Rudy B, Qbical, Stefan Vincent, Royal Sapien and Sandji will indulge us with some rather tasty releases.

'A Must Have'; a rather bold name for a label, stands for Jaksa's personal experience when listening to new unsigned music. When it's good music, he simply must release it... And it's exactly this attitude that makes his label's releases truly A Must Have!
