🖤 “PHANTOM SEQUENCE” – Dark Progressive & Melodic Techno🖤

Enter the afterhours frequency.
Phantom Sequence is a dark, driving journey through underground Progressive Techno and Melodic Techno, built for packed clubs, warehouse systems, and late-night rituals. Heavy kicks, rolling low-end pressure, and hypnotic grooves lock together with evolving melodies and shadowy atmospheres.

From Shadow Pulse.wav to Afterhours Void.wav, each track unfolds with tension, movement, and controlled intensity — cinematic yet functional, emotional yet relentless. This is techno for the darkest hours, where rhythm takes over and time dissolves.

🎧 Stay in the shadows. Follow the sequence. Feel the pull.

Con “If You Need Me”, Benja Molina firma uno de los cortes más sólidos de su nuevo EP en UNIVACK, un lanzamiento que vuelve a confirmar por qué el productor español se ha convertido en una de las figuras clave del Progressive House internacional. El track muestra con claridad su enfoque actual: líneas melódicas diseñadas para club, un trabajo rítmico preciso y una identidad sonora que se ha vuelto plenamente reconocible dentro de la escena.

En contraste con el golpe emocional de “Small Town Night” y el pulso atmosférico de “Atacama”, este tercer corte despliega una narrativa más directa y funcional, pensada para sets que necesitan equilibrio entre energía, profundidad y continuidad. Molina trabaja aquí con un control absoluto sobre la tensión melódica, entregando un track que funciona tanto en warm-ups expansivos como en momentos de progresión avanzada.

Respaldado ya por referentes como Hernán Cattáneo en Resident, Molina continúa demostrando que su evolución no es circunstancial, sino consecuencia de una visión artística madura y consistente. “If You Need Me” refuerza ese camino: un track pulido, efectivo y perfectamente alineado con el sonido actual del género.

ABOUT OTTAWA PROG VIBES

Alain M.'s weekly podcast, Ottawa Prog Vibes, is now in its 7th year and is a recognized presence among Canadian Electronica shows. The show has two goals: showcase progressive DJ's from Ottawa (and Canada) to a global audience, and bring international DJ guests to an Ottawa (and Canadian) audience). 

Alain plays three out of every 10 shows. His mixing has been noted as particularly creative and smooth, a skill that allow his sets to be experienced as seamless stories.

An offshoot series, called Mellow Prog Vibes, is released every two weeks and focuses on more chill vibes, slightly more downtempo, to create a more relaxed vibe. It is curated by OPV resident DJ Boraa, who plays every other episode, with guest DJs playing the alternate.

Ottawa Prog Vibes and Mellow Prog Vibes are broadcast weekly on UK's Saturo Radio, New York's Chill Lover Radio and Ottawa's Blast the Radio.


ABOUT ALAIN M.

Alain M. started dj’ing in his early 20s and played a variety of clubs, big and small, in Ottawa, Montreal and Kingston. From teenage influences in progressive rock, metal and blues, and later New York and Chicago house, Dutch techno and early trance, his style has evolved towards the more melodic, infectiously rhythmic and thoughtful sounds of progressive house, with a particular fondness for Argentinian productions.

Over his 30+ years as a DJ, Alain has cultivated a signature melodic, danceable, and thoughtful style with enough surprises to keep even the most devout listeners on their toes. His live events, organized only a few times annually, are a hypotonic, transformational experience for attendees, putting the Nation’s Capital on the map for electronic music. He has organized and collaborated in a number of events including Levitar, Sunday Meet & Beat, Sit-Down Sessions, Shake my Thursday and Expeditions, attracting a thoughtful crowd who stay mesmerized by his melodic, danceable sets, always peppered with delightfully unexpected sonic elements.

Alain M. is also a guest DJ submitting regular sets to several radio and online outlets. He is a resident on X-Beat Radio (France, Belgium). He was a monthly resident on Abyss Sound Experience on QuestLondon Radio in 2021 and on UK-based Beach Radio between 2021 and 2024.

He has appeared as a guest on a number of shows in several countries including the UK, Argentina, Spain, Poland, Brazil, Sri Lanka, Peru, Turkey, Israel and the US. In Canada, he has been featured as a guest DJ at several events by Ottawa-based Music.Art.Ppl, on CHUO FM’s Vanguard Pulse Radio, on CKCU FM’s Lost In Bass and Mapped Out Radio, on Montreal’s Afterhour radio show and on Toronto’s ION radio show.
