"Sadness" plunges listeners into the heart of a universal human experience: the complex interplay of conflicting emotions. Have you ever felt a profound sadness or simmering anger, yet simultaneously yearned to overpower these feelings with an unyielding surge of pure joy and energy? This track is the sonic embodiment of that internal struggle and eventual catharsis.

From its opening notes, "Sadness" builds a compelling narrative, juxtaposing melancholic undertones with an unrelenting drive. Massive kicks, rich, pulsating basslines, and intensely energetic percussion form the backbone, propelling the track forward. These powerful rhythmic elements are interwoven with uplifting, joyous harmonies and vibrant melodies, designed to meticulously chip away at the weight of sorrow.

It's a testament to the transformative power of music – a relentless, high-energy sonic assault against emotional pain, culminating in a release where the burdensome feelings slowly dissipate, replaced by a liberating sense of elation. "Sadness" isn't just a song; it's an exhilarating ride that encourages you to dance through your pain and emerge on the other side, empowered and alive.

In the height of the northern hemisphere summer, Andre Sobota turned up the volume with his outstanding "Unmute" EP. A regular on Proton and Particles, Sobota's work is now revisited courtesy of remix from a quartet of Australian, Argentinean and Mexican talents.

Australian artists, Gavin Griffin and Matty Doyle have ridden the crest of a sonic wave in recent months with their GMJ and Matter soubriquets. Highly accomplished individually, each has performed across their native Australia and internationally at a variety of clubs and festivals, not least at the globally renowned "Rainbow Serpent Festival". Both regulars on Proton Music with their individual work that includes the recent "Sovereign Reality" and "We Are Dust" offerings, their combined work has seen May 2016's "Superposition" and June 2017's "Osmosis" demonstrate the duo's rare ability to craft a sparkling underground sound that is as unique as it is impressive. A December 2016 remix of Pete K is now followed by a second, in the shape of Sobota's title track. With a strong rhythmic narrative, the GMJ and Matter remix is replete with additional production material as the shimmering pads of the original are gently revealed alongside a floor-shaking groove and emotive melody. Building effortlessly the intelligent use of original components and striking new motifs, provide an epic offering that has enough class to attend any royal garden party.

From the sprawling Argentinean metropolis that is, Buenos Aries, Nicolás Rada is a man with a rich musical heritage to his name. An accomplished pianist and percussionist, his forays into dance music production have been highly impressive, influenced as he is by the sounds of Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J and Nick Warren. A regular on the Balkan Connection family, over a century of production credits can be found against the main label and the 'South American' variant. Landmarked by 2015's debut full-length "Air Ports" album for BCSA, Rada has gone on to see his work featured on Superordinate, Soundteller and One Of A Kind. August 2017's twin-track "Sheremetyevo" EP has been a notable highlight for Particles as Nicolás Rada now debuts on Proton Music with his remix of "Unmute". Building in elegant fashion, a deep and dramatic bass note accompanies a strong kick and evolving percussive framework, before a muted arpeggio filters into aural view alongside textured pads. Reworking Sobota's original components in clever fashion, the sounds of the original resonate in listener consciousness as a raft of new material finds its way into the third movement in pulsating fashion.

Owner of Hookah Records and a range of live label showcases that have featured the likes of Kastis Torrau and Guy Mantzur, Hot TuneiK is a force to be reckoned with; the Mexican producer creating a plethora of production material that found itself featured on leading underground imprints. Thus, work for 3rd Avenue, Balkan Connection and Dopamine Music are testament to an enduring sound that first debuted on House Tribe Records in 2012. An appearance on the "Spring Particles 2016" compilation showcased impressive original work and a trio of remixes now pave the way for a Proton debut. Taking a typically groove-laden approach to his interpretation of "Departure", the Hot TuneiK remix is wonderfully redolent in the shimmering melodic themes of Sobota's original as they rise and fall, accompanied by strong kick and rich percussive layers. Introducing a host of new melodic elements at the mid-point breakdown, Hot TuneiK's skill is to rework them into a seamless bend of original parts and additional production material that evolves elegantly into the third movement.

A trio of new remixes from GMJ and Matter, Nicolás Rada and Hot TuneiK have turned the volume on Andre Sobota's "Unmute" all the way to 11.

MNL: "One of the artists who has been on our radar but has never appeared on any of our labels before is Dutch veteran producer Alex O'Rion. An artist you'll surely all know. He takes on the remix duties and flips Forniva's airy original into a deep and dark late night club mover. Already selected by Hernan Cattaneo for his recent Electronic Groove podcast, so you know it's good when it's got the maestro's seal of approval!"

Daydreamers

Eric Lune - Benji (Reprise) [3rd Avenue]

“Everything You Feel” continues the Lanvary story with a title track that is a rich sonic tapestry full of melodic vibrancy and bristling percussive framework. Anchored by a dominant kick, a strong bassline
groove carries the track ever forwards while sumptuous pads gently pulsate, accompanied by a soaring string progression that comes fully to the fore at the breakdown. Hitting its stride in the
second half, a subtle arpeggiated sequence adds to the aural collage while cleverly processed vocal phrases link back to earlier movements.

Partner track, “Late Bloom” continues Lanvary’s penchant for strong melodic architecture as a plucked groove holds sway against a strong rhythmic foundation and ticking percussive cadence. Marrying the different elements together impressively, a growling bassline provides
low-end menace as a series of question and answer motifs fire across the left-right spectrum with ease. Evolving elegantly multiple shimmering arpeggios come into full sonic range in the
second half to create a dizzying melodic structure that hits rarefied heights into the third movement.

With rare precision, Lanvary push the musical senses to new heights with “Everything You Feel”.

Liner Notes
Coming from Hungary, Geo Dusnoki aka GÆO is a Copenhagen based producer and DJ. Their interest in music grew from a young age and after composing ambient music and playing in a post-rock band throughout their teenage years and early 20s, in 2018 Geo took a big step towards their dream of producing when getting admitted to The Royal Danish Academy of Music in Copenhagen, Denmark. Ever since studying at the Tonmeister (sound engineering and music production) department, working with many different genres including classical, jazz, world music recordings and their own productions of electro-acoustic music.
Their musical style slowly developed towards the path of electronica and deep house while keeping the ambient, melodic and emotional atmosphere that has always marked their music. Their love for DJ-ing has emerged simultaneously and now their mixes include a wide variety of melodic techno, organic house and downtempo.
Touch, Grip, Release is an emotional journey, portrayed by hand-movements symbolizing three different stages of a human connection. Touch – the meeting, Grip – the attachment, Release – letting go.
Intimate piano and atmospheric strings carried by pulsating synths and driving beats to create a unique constellation of emotive electronic music.

Release date: December 25, 2020 @ Beatport.
