A welcome returning figure to the Meanwhile Roster, Mike Rish is no stranger to success. With numerous cross-genre hits under multiple aliases, his own name sees him reach rarefied heights in the Progressive House genre with work signed to Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music, Guy J’s Lost & Found and Praveen Achary’s Juicebox Music.

December 2021 saw a Meanwhile debut with the sublime 3-track “Beyond” EP, while April 2023 witnessed a standout reworking of Jamie Stevens’ “Storm Front”. Returning for a second outing, his latest triple tracker opens with the funky rhythmic backdrop of “GT”. Using an intricate percussive arrangement to provide a club-friendly foundation, a swathe of stereo-panned textures and synth effects meander across the opening movements, accompanied by delay-infused vocal cuts. A smooth arpeggio adds a touch of traditional progressive drive at the breakdown and beyond, while a further synth motif blossoms in the second half to sit alongside the rasping and explosive bassline.

Continuing the effects-laden narrative, “Shoreditch Funk” quickly makes its mark with a woodblock infused percussive top-line. Stereo-panned pads and saw-tooth synths pulsate in dizzying fashion while a grooved bassline adds dancefloor ‘funk’. A cascading arp makes its presence felt, pitching in freeform oscillator glory at the break, before continuing unabated in detuned fashion throughout the second half. The result is a vibrant sonic collage that bristles with verve and innovation.

The final track witnesses another meticulously conceived rhythmic arrangement throughout “Reka”, with a subtle bass sequence providing dancefloor sensibilities alongside a heavy 4/4 beat. An acetylene-torch lead mesmerises with its glissando phrasing while a glassy motif combines with gently pulsing pads that swim enticingly in smooth juxtaposition. Continuing themes redolent in previous outings, a beautifully imagined synth phrase syncopates in exquisitely cadenced rhythm alongside percussive counterparts. “Reka” then evolves into a delicately conceived melodic jewel in the latter stages.

“GT / Shoreditch Funk / Reka” continues to find Mike Rish very much at the leading edge of modern and pioneering Progressive House.

Mike Rish - Shoreditch Funk

Like every genre we cultivate, progressive house has its own subgenres. This EP, where in the original version we have the Beat Factory project accompanied by great remixes by Lio Q and Luman, we have the opportunity to hear the perfection of the combination of deep and progressive house sound.
The big return of the Beat Factory project, which was rampaging the deep house scene in previous years, now in a slightly different model.

► Release Info:

Following on from Chris Cargo's amazing Jackdaw (ODST074) that we released back in June 2023, we are excited to present you with the remixes EP. Each track has had its remixer carefully chosen for their sonic prowess and talent. Label family member, Golan Zocher has created a musical masterpiece with his beautiful rendition of Wondering Why. This remix has hit favorite with our dear friends, Nick Warren, Hernan Cattaneo and DJ Ruby who have been hammering this from Miami, Ibiza and Woodstock and reaching as a far as Pakistan and we thank you for your support. Scottish born legend who calls New Zealand home, Nic Cavendish aka Nila makes his label debut with his remix of Jackdaw and this remix is nothing short of mesmerizing and watch this space as we have additional music forthcoming on the label in 2024. And last but by no means least our South American magicians of sonically delicious Progressive House, Gorkiz and Nobilis bring the EP to a crescendo of biblical proportions with their take on Falcons Maze.

PREMIERE: Chris Cargo - Falcons Maze (Gorkiz & Nobilis Remix) [ONEDOTSIXTWO]

Since April 2020, Meanwhile has consistently shone a spotlight on the Progressive House scene with an ever-ambitious series of releases. Focusing on a dazzling array of impressive and innovative global artists, GMJ & Matter’s high-flying imprint witnesses another significant milestone. Celebrating its 50th release after a debut in the pandemic hit world of April 2020, Meanwhile returns to its Australian roots and an iconic figure in the progressive house scene as Jamie Stevens showcases “Mad Bells / Kanlan”. 

A legendary figure with more than two decades experience in the underground dance scene, Jamie Stevens requires no introduction to the Meanwhile cognoscenti. A winner of two ARIA awards with his band, Infusion, the Australian star has seen a career continue to flourish in an ever-shifting industry with his constantly evolving sound. Overseeing almost 450 production credits, Stevens’ continuing presence at the pinnacle of electronic music has found his work signed to a plethora of high-profile imprints that include Bedrock, Selador, Lost & Found and Balance Music amongst them. 

Finding a home on Meanwhile courtesy of June 2022’s 3-track “Circles” and remixes for Roger Martinez and GMJ himself, Jamie Stevens returns with a spell-binding twin-track offering. 

“Mad Bells” is a typically smooth and impressive offering with its pounding beat and off-beat hi-hat pattern. Subtle percussive elements gradually make their entrance to create a rolling groove, before a swathe of melodic elements bring the track to life. Gloriously effected vocal cuts span the stereo spectrum with ease before a huge 16th note bassline enters the fray in dominant, club-friendly fashion. Building with mesmerising intensity, glassy keys and chord progressions add to the aural landscape to create another transcendent piece from the Jamie Stevens studio. 

Partner track, “Kanlan”, continues the sumptuous palette of sounds as a pulsating bassline sits alongside heavy kick and ticking percussive top-line. An immaculate array of melodic characters is introduced at regular intervals as they wax and wane against the hypnotic bass and rhythmic characters. A stripped-back breakdown adds to the majesty as a new sustained bassline makes its play with a shimmering cast of synths and effects in attendance, before the pace is picked up once more with familiar phrases and a stunning cadenced pan-pipe effect in the third movement. 

Creating a superb musical diptych redolent in a rich and charismatic sonic narrative, Jamie Stevens excels with “Mad Bells / Kanlan”.
