The latest release from Nikko.Z's Dopamine White finds the label showcasing new interpretations of D-Rhapsody's 'Rip Current' EP. Released in 2017 on parent label Dopamine Music, it was the Italian duo's debut on the Greek imprint. Spread across four tracks the EP showcased D-Rhapsody's unique blend of deep grooves, progressive rhythms and charming atmospheres. Fast forward four years and the Italian duo are now primary contributors to the Dopamine Music labels, with a second EP in 2018 and two star-studded remix editions. Now as the summer season approaches Dopamine White revisits D-Rhapsody's 'Rip Current' EP with new interpretations from Gabo Martin and Jesuan M, Andre Moret and Ric Niels.

Leading the release off and providing the lone interpretation of 'Rip Current' is Gabo Martin and Jesuan M. The Argentinean duo made their Dopamine White debut to begin the year with the release of their 'Mirage' EP in January, the lead track of which now sits atop their Beatport best sellers. Continuing to build their creative synergy, the duo now returns to the label for their first remix, taking 'Rip Current' into pure progressive territory. Fluid rhythms, mountainous bass tones and driving percussion set the course for this peak time journey. Mounds of perfectly contoured bass roll forward with momentous swing, as striking electronics, aquatic effects and emerging atmospheres smoothly shift energy into an emotive break. Cinematic and poignant, the centrepiece furthers the enchanting narrative with harmonic refrains and hopeful overlays, before muscular breakbeats reset the groove for a charged finale.

Returning to the label and providing the lone interpretation of 'Mad Spirals' is Andre Moret. The Brazilian artist and Hernan Cattaneo favourite made his debut on the Greek imprint in November of 2019 with his 'Instant Mind' EP, before returning the following year with a well received remix of Rafa'EL's 'Neon Dreams'. A strong start to 2021 has seen the Campinas resident record remixes for Balkan Connection, Clubsonica, Nature Rec and more. Now continuing to delight progressive music fans Andre returns to Dopamine White with a stellar take on 'Mad Spirals'.  Smooth yet groovy, the creation flows through a storyboard of undulating bass, charming tones and sweeping effects, before shifting energy into a grandiose break. Concise and heartfelt, the centrepiece is nostalgic in nature, projecting waves of emotion as poignant pianos and spine-tingling atmospheres set up a feel-good final movement.

Rounding out the release with the lone interpretation of 'Cycles' is Ric Niels who returns to the label following his 'Savon' EP from March of this year. Only a year into his journey as a producer, the Argentinean artist has already compiled an impressive resume, highlighted by releases for Clubsonica, Mango Alley, Movement Recordings and Soundteller Records. Now furthering his bond with Dopamine White, Ric returns to the label with an exhilarating interpretation of 'Cycles'. Smooth and powerful, it's a mesmerizing journey into the depths of peak time progressive house. Tougher than the original, its muscular framework is offset with crunchy rhythms, astral artefacts and effervescent effects. It's dark narrative slowly draws you in as the first act evolves, perfectly setting up a sinister, effects laden break which should not only light up your dance floor, but perfectly sets up a commanding drop and energetic finale. A massive interpretation from Ric Niels, which caps off an excellent remix edition for D-Rhapsody's 'Rip Current'.

Michael A - Returnal (Original Mix)

Alpine craftsmanship combines with Argentinean talent as The Wash and Ric Niels provide a new global partnership between Europe and South America. Through "Argaut", flexible rhythmic grooves ease their way atop throbbing beat and urgent bassline whilst silky pads add counterweight. Striking arp phrasing melts into hypnotic patterns before "Remote Madness" find a way to back to lucidity. A meteor-sized kick thumps its way across the plains; from Höflein to Tres Isletas where acid sequences morph across the sonic landscape, pausing for breath in a serene breakdown. The smooth undertones of "11.247" shimmer in undulating patterns and a moment of uplifting joy transcends geographical barriers. A melodic force ripples in concentric circles; rising and falling in effortless waves, it creates exquisite aural artefacts of blissful intensity.

Saudade EP

PREMIERE: Luciano Scheffer - Saudade [Transensations]

Providing a progressive masterclass in November 2020, Matter’s “Amanita” was a powerful platform for the Australian to release his solo debut EP on Meanwhile. Now, returning to the three-track offering, a trio of remixes create a new perspective.

Matias Chilano is an artist with an impressive and varied portfolio to his name, dating back to a debut for LuPS Records in mid-2008. Over 400 production credits followed as the Argentinean found his work allied to the likes of Roger Martinez’s Higher States, Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music and a pair of tracks on Patrice Bäumel’s ground-breaking 2019 mix for “Global Underground #42 Berlin”. Another Meanwhile debutant, the Matias Chilano remix is a typically powerful offering, redolent in the wonderful rolling rhythms and delightful melodic patterns that have become such a feature of his work. Rippling arps hint at the motifs found in “Hikikomori” as immaculate and imaginative use is made of Matter’s remix components. Building though a fusion of white noise and snare rolls, the track rises and falls with ease in club-friendly manner before a new delay-fuelled synth lead makes its mark in the second half to devastating effect.

A renowned Sri Lankan producer with over 150 production credits to his name, Dimuth K has found himself featured on such renowned imprints as Plattenbank, BeatFreak Recordings and Proton Music. An award-winning DJ with performances alongside Guy J, Sahar Z and Guy Mantzur, Dimuth makes his Meanwhile debut with a driving rhythmic interpretation that treats “Hikikomori” to a ticking percussive groove and seismic kick drum. Using elements of Matter’s bassline to intelligent effect, a beautifully shimmering arp makes its presence felt while a unique sonic tapestry weaves elements from the original into new production material from the Dimuth K production arsenal. The result is an evolving melodic gem that flourishes post-breakdown to mesmerising effect.

An iconic name with a tidal wave of success, GMJ returns with another outstanding remix. A regular contributor to his co-owned label, the Melbourne based star has already lit up Meanwhile with a plentiful supply of original material over 2020 that includes “Mood Medicine” in solo guise, and the “Lost on Origin”, “Eldarin” and “The Path / Perfect Storm” EPs with Matter. Reworking “Wormhole”, the GMJ remix thus continues the rich, rolling groove that forms such a central tenet of his production ideology. Building in pace, melodic references to the original make their play, accompanied by pulsating white-noise washes and trademark reverb and delay-soaked synth lines that extend into the third movement. A deep sub-bass adds weight aplenty and the track waxes and wanes with ease across its near 10-minute timeframe.

Mushrooming into a new sonic adventure, Matter’s “Amanita” is transformed via remixes from Matias Chilano, Dimuth K and GMJ.
