Promoter, DJ and producer, Anton Tumas has been at the vanguard of the underground dance scene for a number of years, now, he debuts on Balance Music with a stunning new interpretation of an all-time classic.

The EP is also available in Dolby Atmos (mastered by Danny Bonnici)

Highly skilled and prolific producer Jamie Stevens who is no stranger to reworking classic tracks. Retaining the core melodic themes of the original, his skill is to generate a new vision that bristles with bassline brio and reverse reverb. The central melodic pilar gently filters into sonic range in the early stages and breakdown, before erupting in the second half with an exquisite snarling bass sequence that glides with ease against the trademark synth line so fundamental to the original.

As individual artists, Argentinean pair, Nicolas Leonelli and Diego R are no strangers to the dance music limelight, now joining forces for their debut release on Proton Music with "Dreaming / Continuation". From a musical family, Nico's sound has seen him become a regular DJ across his homeland with residencies in Buenos Aires. His production work since a 2019 debut for WH Records has seen a steady stream of releases light up Traful, Clubsonica Records and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Meanwhile, fellow Buenos Aires resident, Diego R, began with DJ performances across the capital in 2016/17 before embarking on his production journey with the help and expertise of Andrea Cassino and interaxxis' Emiliano Folgar. Opening his account in mid-2020 with a debut on 3xA Music, Diego quickly went onto to see his work feature for the likes of AH Digital, Superordinate Music and The Soundgarden.

Opening their Proton Music account, "Dreaming" is characterised by a punchy kick, flowing percussive shakers and deep sub-bassline pattern. Building with ease, a smooth plucked motif wends its way across proceedings in hypnotic repetition, while a pitched down vocal phrase adds weight. Rising and falling with immaculate dancefloor knowhow, textured pads and spot effects add to the intrigue in a thoroughly modern progressive gem. "Continuation" quickly follows the same rhythmic and bassline narrative as its predecessor while a head-shaking clap brings percussive energy. Before long siren-inspired lead motif glides up and down as the mesmerising sonic collage builds with white-noise washes and eerie vocal flashes. A pounding bassline adds to the club-friendly prowess as a beatless breakdown pauses momentarily for breath before the track drops back into familiar rhythmic territory.

On remix duties, Juan Deminicis is another Argentinean needing no introduction as a long-term contributor to legion Progressive House gems on Proton Music with his distinctive soundscapes and unrivalled production techniques. Remixes for such celebrated names as GMJ, Michael A, Savvas and Luis León & Unseener have stood alongside original EPs such as "Life on the Moon", "Synchronicity", "Water" and "Cycles" across a 13-year period of endless highlights. Now remixing Nicolas Leonelli & Diego R, Juan Deminicis takes "Dreaming" in a typically luscious and smooth direction. A trademark groove of trance-inducing majesty lilts effortlessly across a near 7-minute interpretation as familiar melodic refrains from the original sit loftily across the top. Waxing and waning through its phases, the immaculate groove and rich pads create a superb textured soundscape.

Another Proton Music regular, Iran Khan has seen almost a double century of production credits grace a plethora of high-profile labels with 30 on Proton's labels, dating back to a 2017 debut on Particles. Graduating onto Proton Music in late-2018, remixes for Sebastian Sellares, Petar Dundov and dernis, the kid have been noticeable highlights with the "Organik" and "Sunsweat" EPs showcasing the UK artist's original work. Now returning once more, the Imran Khan reworking of "Dreaming" opens with a beautifully crafted atmospheric soundscape that glistens around a thumping kick and low-slung grooved percussion. A smooth bassline evolves out of the rhythm as a swathe of effects, with their roots in the Nico and Diego's work, coruscate across the left-right spectrum. Dropping the beat momentarily, the original's central melodic character makes its presence felt at the breakdown before joining with the powerful and dynamic rhythmic section through the second half.

An artist who has been pulling up sizeable trees over the past 18 months, Hobin Rude is a welcome addition to the Proton Music roster with his "Found Myself" EP. Based in the Belgrade capital, the Serbian star has over 300 production credits to his name since a June 202 debut, with the likes of Roger Martinez's HIGHER STATES, Praveen Achary's Juicebox Music and Mango's Mango Alley amongst them. Now debuting on Proton Music, the title track is a superbly conceived affair with low-slung percussive groove, deep kick and cadenced bassline. As it evolves, a pitched down vocal cut eerily declares, "Found Myself" while a smooth and flowing lead line adds to the sonic tension inherent within. Pausing at the breakdown and dropping away to momentarily silence, the track soon falls back into the familiar refrains of earlier movements. "Awake Between Worlds" immediately excites with its rapid fire, off-beat hats and thumping kick while atmospheric pads wash over the rhythmic backdrop in textured waves. Haunting and evocative in equal measures, free-flowing chord progressions play out, keenly felt at the beatless but gently pulsing breakdown. Hitting the heights once more in the third movement, familiar rhythms come to the fore as a juxtaposed bass pattern sits underneath the smoothly oscillating pads.

A Proton Music regular, Dmitry Molosh has been at the vanguard of modern Progressive House for some 15 years and 700 production credits. Able to shine a powerful light on his inimitable talent through a host of original releases and remixes, the "Little Friend", "Winds of Change", "River Pond" and "Station" EPs have been notable additions to the Proton Music catalogue. Moreover, remixes for such celebrated names as Kastis Torrau, Trilucid and Paul Deep have showcased another side to the Belarusian's production talents, as Dmitry now works his magic on "Awake Between Worlds". Picking up the pace slightly compared to the original, a sublime sustained bassline creates dynamic dancefloor energy. Cleverly interpreting themes from Hobin Rude's track, Dmitry has shaped the coruscating pads into a series of melodic sequences that sit superbly alongside a rippling arpeggio at the breakdown. Hitting its straps in the second half, courtesy of a stirring snare roll, a growling bassline note delays into the distance as the arp and earlier melodic phrases make their presence felt again with a glorious new additional melody. The result is yet another hugely impressive remix from the Dmitry Molosh production vault.

With trademark style and verve, James Monro has been a significant contributor to Proton Music with a veritable feast of Progressive House since a 2013 debut remixing Juan Deminicis. Since then, the "Sanctuary" series has enjoyed 3 volumes while "In the Ether" represented a high watermark in August 2017 with a full-length album that exuded quality from start to finish. Remixes for the likes of Clawz SG, Desaturate and Rick Pier O'Neil are also among a slew of striking interpretations that have additionally helped shape the James Monro sound. Finding his way back to the label for the first time in 2 years, the James Monro remix is a pounding, rhythmic affair that captures the essence of "Awake Between Worlds" but transforms it into a sparkling new interpretation by intelligent use of original components and immaculately conceived additional production material from James' Brazilian studio. The result is a driving and pulsating remix that turns Hobin Rude's work in hypnotic dancefloor destroyer.

A superb debut EP creates an environment where Hobin Rude has truly "Found Myself" on Proton Music.

Leaman makes a strong return to Manual Music with his new dual release Chami / Hamida, following last year's well-received Mark I.

The standout track Chami sees him team up with Riigs and label boss Paul Hazendonk for a deep, underground cut that nods to early 2000s progressive house. Driven by a highly delayed vocal sample and crisp, uplifting percussion, Chami blends nostalgia with a modern edge.

On the flip side, Hamida dives into darker territory, layering dub techno-inspired chords with energetic arpeggiator rhythms to create a raw, warehouse-ready vibe.

A versatile release that bridges past and present with style.
