Fabri Lopez - Balkanians Show @ Proton Radio (May 2021)

Andrea Cassino has been a long-term contributor to the Proton Music catalogues in both solo and collaborative guises. After a 2017 debut with his "Divine" and 2019's "Losing Part of Me" EPs, the Argentinean based artist returns with his twin-track "Asante". In collaboration with Bueno Aries resident, Lio Q, signed to the likes of UV, Clubsonica Records and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden, Andrea & Cassino & Lio Q present "Asante".

The title track is a flowing rhythmic offering that explodes into life with syncopated motif and strong dancefloor character. Free-flowing synth phrases add a moment of contemplation that reach a zenith at the breakdown, while the second half continues the powerful rhythmic groove as bass, melody combine in hypnotic fashion. "Karibu" continues the exceptional percussive drive of its partner-track as an African-inspired melodic phrase adds context and sonic imagination. Pulsating gently as it weaves a path across a magical 9-minute voyage, shimmering synth plucks at the breakdown extend into the post-breakdown zenith along with a glorious array of uplifting counterpoint phrasing.

Producing from his Córdoba studio at the base of the Sierra Chicas mountains, Sebastian Sellares is an artist who has shone brightly since a 2018 debut for PHW Elements. Hitting the heights on the likes of UV, onedotsixtwo and Meanwhile, October 2020's "Jinsei / Zen State" was a Proton Music high point as the two original tracks were joined by remixes from Nick Muir and Matias Chilano. Now returning, the Sebastian Sellares remix is a powerful tour de force that grasps the themes central to the original and transforms "Asante" in a mesmerising and brooding club floor-filler that oozes class with its rhythmic intricacy and smooth melodic phrasing. Building effortlessly into the breakdown, chord changes and rousing crescendo pave the way for the rhythmic intensity and dramatic melodies to make their presence felt in the third movement to devastating effect.

A Proton Music debutant, Gaston Ponte has already demonstrated his considerable talent on an array of blue-chip labels and a double century of production credits on the likes of Balkan Connection, Soundteller Records and Stellar Fountain. Mentored by Andrea Cassino, it is not difficult to hear the skill and craftsmanship that has gone into the Argentinean's reworking of "Asante". Through a combination of intelligent use of the component sounds found in the original plus impressive new production material, the Gaston Ponte remix glistens with a new melodic narrative with its roots firmly in Cassino & Lio Q's track. A pulsating and rasping bassline add to the dynamic interpretation in the second half to create a club-friendly offering that is certain to have global appeal.

Two new original tracks from Andrea Cassino & Lio Q plus remixes from Sebastian Sellares and Gaston Ponte has given global appeal and a warm welcome to "Asante".

ANALOG JUNGS Basanta / Namaste

001 basanta torsten fassbender remix
002 basanta
003 namaste
004 namaste imran khan remix

From the foothills of the Sierra Chicas, Analog Jungs create a collaboration of epic proportions. A towering edifice to underground house where a sound garden full of hope has blossomed, "Basanta" appears. A creative playground of grooved bassline takes the initiative as subtle melodic flourishes ripple in dynamic passages. Heading to the stratosphere, ethereal pads sublimate into an aural vapour above a bedrock of rhythmic intrigue. Rising from the early morning mist, "Namaste" echoes a bassline dominance and imperceptibly heard motif. Shimmering in the golden sunlight a new phrase opens up with summer warmth and joy, built upon a heavy beat and chunky percussion.

Out of the bustling Berlin metropolis, Torsten Fassbender delivers a cutting-edge sound. Icy leads and glittering arpeggios glide in coruscating patterns with subtle reference to "Basanta". Myriad textures and sounds come together in a magnificent sonic landscape that glistens in the sun of snow-capped mountain tops. A UK powerhouse returns to familiar surroundings where Imran Khan creates a trademark foundation of granite bassline and earth-shattering groove. White-noise dissolves in white heat as it swirls in dizzying patterns. Hypnotism reigns supreme through rhythmic metronome, while power chords hold sustained force against swirling effects.

Eighth installment made up of two originals (Ocaso / Sol da Maia) plus two great remixes by talented dj producers Weird Sounding Dude from India and JFR from Argentina.

As passionate as he is talented, Imran Khan returns to Meanwhile with a second original EP in the shape of “Equinox”.

 

A growing portfolio of tracks on an array of esteemed imprints has seen Imran Khan’s reputation grow steadily since a 2017 debut on Massive Harmony Records. With a distinctive deep and powerful sound that has gone on to see him feature on the likes of Clinique, Particles and Proton Music, the UK star admits, “I love making electronic music”.

 

A pair of remixes for GMJ & Matter’s “Lost on Origin” represented a Meanwhile debut in April 2020, while February 2021’s “Push Thru / Horizonz” was another notable highlight, showcasing Khan’s craftsmanship with an original EP debut. Now returning with a second offering, the three-track “Equinox” is another masterful addition to the Meanwhile catalogue.

 

Opening proceedings, the title track glitters in a velvety night sky where pinpricks of melodic light illuminate a cavernous bassline. White-noise pans in gentle waves across the stereo spectrum as thickly stratified pads join forces in synthesised union. A true force of nature erupts in symmetrical brilliance where “Equinox” delivers a timeless masterpiece.

 

Full of groove-inspired character, “Generator” builds a new powerline. Heavy bass sequences spawn a heady concoction of low-end energy that revolves in perpetual cycles. Rhythmic dynamism develops in hypnotic patterns as subtle synth motifs are charged by rib-cracking kick and syncopated vitality.

 

Rhythmic intricacy and poise form “In My Head” where popping percussion delivers a vibrant framework that fizzes with brio and intensity. Pulsating waves of sound vibrate in aural synchronicity around ethereal vocal touches, and gentle melodic juxtaposition revolves around a heady mixture of exquisite suspense that represents a new conduit for machine-generated sounds.

 

Through beautiful sonic symmetry where rhythm and melody are balanced with immaculate precision, a new “Equinox” emerges from the brilliant mind of Imran Khan.

Volen Sentir Vs. Motorcycle - Heimarmene Vs. As The Rush Comes/Acapella (Minestrone Mashup)

Releasing their "Hagel" EP in May 2018, LADS created another magical milestone on Proton Music with a twin-track offering of the highest order. Now we return to the EP with a pair of new remixes from Dutch and UK artists.

Dutch duo, Huminal, have been a real tour de force since their introduction to the underground dance scene, courtesy of the "Prophecies" EP on FutureForm Music in early 2014. Long-time friend, Paul Deetman and Jelle Jansen had already been regulars across the clubs of their Amsterdam home with captivating sets for local promoters, Pleinvrees and NGHTDVSN. Moreover, their distinctive production sound has seen a raft of production material for the likes of Einmusika, Zerothree and Movement Recordings. Regulars on Particles and Proton Music with a combined quartet of original EPs, "Knocking on the Sky" and "We Dwell in the Past" have been notable highlights in the Proton catalogue with October 2018's "Macropsia" another jewel in their sizeable crown. 

Following on from a trio of remixes, the Huminal remix is redolent in duo's trademark rasping analogue bass sound. Built around an intelligent percussive groove that evolves enticingly, a bouncing bassline emerges in off-beat pattern that hints at the complexity to follow. Simultaneously, the motifs from the LADS original are heard, combined with Huminal's own stunning production material that reaches a glorious zenith at the breakdown before extending into the third movement. The result is a stunning achievement.

An artist who burst onto the underground dance scene in late 2016, Imran Khan has been a regular on Clinique Recordings with his "Distance Between Us" and "Time" EPs. Going on to find his music featured on the likes of Stellar Fountain, Astrowave and BQ Recordings, Khan's work for Particles saw the "Arrival" EP released in August 2018 following success of the title track on the "Winter Particles 2018" compilation. A pair of original tracks alongside remixes from Kamilo Sanclemente and Dabeat and Hot TuneiK showcased Khan's music.

Now debuting on Proton Music, the Imran Khan remix is a deep and sultry offering that revels in stripped back percussive cadence. A metronomic bass note finds its place in the creation of tight groove while melodic elements from the LADS original filter into aural range. Building cleverly throughout, a chorus of strings and sustained pads supply depth before a shimmering arpeggio opens up, taking its place in the post-breakdown sonic collage with glorious simplicity.

Remixes from Huminal and Imran Khan see LADS reign supreme in "Hagel".

Hagel (Imran Khan Remix)

Providing a late summer EP of the highest quality, GMJ and Matter once again showed their collaborative prowess. Through "Interscope" the duo created a stunning twin-track EP, now revitalised in 2019 with remixes from Argentinean and Moldovan talents.

An Argentinean artist with a rich musical provenance to his name, Nicolas Rada, has shone brightly within the underground dance fraternity. An accomplished pianist with an inherent understanding of musical composition, an impressive DJ career has risen in tandem with memorable production work including over a century of credits on the Balkan Connection family of labels. Moreover, it is with iconic DJ and celebrated producer, Nick Warren that the duo has found a strong collaborative relationship in 2018 with the standout "Land of Dreams" EP for Warren's The Soundgarden imprint a notable June highlight. Bookended by remixes of Eelke Kleijn for DAYS like NIGHTS and Mark Slee and Atish for Manjumasi, Rada's remix of Andre Sobota in December 2017 marked an impressive debut for Proton Music, now followed by a standout reworking of the Australian duo. Taking on "Interscope", the Nicolas Rada remix is redolent in a trademark rhythmic groove that drives the track forward with deep kick and intricate percussion. Using GMJ and Matter's original components to create an elegant framework, new melodic motifs make their presence felt as the track evolves. From the mid-point onwards, a chorus of additional production material sees counterpoint motifs play off each other in coruscating beauty to create a wonderful new interpretation.

The self-proclaimed 'double-headed dragon' sees Moldovan duo, Alex and Andrew take form as Lanvary. Both respected DJs and artists, the duo's diverse musical backgrounds have found them in much demand as they experiment with sonic ideas, "melting various ingredients in their musical kitchen". Making their 2010 debut for Underphunk Recordings, the duo has gone on to celebrate 150 production credits for some of the finest modern underground labels, including Stellar Fountain, Mistique Digital and Suffused Music. Regulars on Particles, a series of original EPs have continued to showcase the Lanvary sound as the twin-track "Micromegas" debut in 2015 was quickly followed by "Slingshot Ride" and "Penumbra" in 2016 and "Leviathan" in 2017. Graduating onto Proton Music, December 2017's "Venus" EP was a strong debut that went on to see reworkings from LADS and Soulwerk, while remixes of Matter and Hot TuneiK are now followed by a third in the shape of the Lanvary remix of "To The Stars". Creating a deep and subtle groove, Lanvary have fashioned a wonderful rhythmic foundation that bristles with percussive intent as a warm bassline supplies further substance. Simultaneously, a new melodic riff makes its presence felt in hypnotic beauty while a swathe of effects and innovative sound design give rise to the "Odd Galaxy" title. Using GMJ and Matter's components to inventive effect, the result is another impressive offering from the Lanvary production stable.

Remixes from Nicolas Rada and Lanvary have given GMJ and Matter's "Interscope" a vibrant new direction.

A long-time friend of Proton Music, Andre Sobota, continually impresses with a growing catalogue of original material. Returning to the label, he excels once again with his "Alter Ego".

Consistently at the cutting edge of underground dance music with an ability to cross-over into the mainstream without compromising his sound, Andre Sobota continues to shine. From an official remix of Coldplay and Rihanna's "Princess of China" for EMI to multiple appearances on BBC Radio 1, Sobota's ability to find the pulse of modern dance music is unerring. Moreover, the Brazilian's work for a host of high-calibre imprints has seen him recognised as a master of sound design and melodic phrasing. A regular on the likes of Anjunadeep, Toolroom and microCastle, a half-century of credits for the latter has seen the Andre Sobota's music create a unique following among peers and fans alike. A frequent contributor to Particles and Proton Music since a debut for the latter in November 2009, Sobota quickly found a place in the Proton hall of fame with his remarkable "One Day Out" EP a month later. A host of remixes followed from the likes of Shingo Nakamura, Cid Inc. and Kassey Voorn before a four-year hiatus saw him return with a sublime new interpretation of his debut EP under the cleverly titled "5 Years Outside". New tracks in "Signal", "Concluded" and "Fragments" shone brightly, before two further offerings in July 2017's "Unmute" and June 2018's "Robots", showcased a quartet of tracks reinvigorated further by remixes from Nicolas Rada, Silinder and GMJ and Matter.

Following a remix of Dutch artist, Deeparture, in November 2018, Andre Sobota now returns with the stunning three-track, "Alter Ego". The title track is immediately characterised by a trademark rhythmic framework that provides the perfect vehicle for a rich series of melodies to shimmer into sonic range backed by a gloriously deep and rasping bassline. Building with ease and full of dancefloor intensity, sustained chords and reverb-drenched effects create a mid-point pause before the chunky groove and melodic components pick up the pace in the second half.

"Dreamless" immediately appeals with rolling rhythmic structure and haunting vocal phrasing redolent in complex effects processing. A strong kick supplies dynamic energy as a plucked arpeggio in the breakdown opens up into a sparkling melodic jewel in the third movement. The result is a trademark track Andre Sobota gem.

Final track, "Left Behind", continues the dance floor theme with a pounding beat opening proceedings, before a richly textured and sustained chord heralds a shaker-driven percussive cadence and club-friendly bass groove. Continuing at unrelenting pace, a glistening chord progression comes to the fore as it pans across the stereo spectrum in modulated brilliance at the mid-point. Hitting its straps again in the second half, Sobota's skill is in full evidence as an expertly constructed track evolves from start to finish.

A new musical triptych finds Andre Sobota very much in the limelight with his new "Alter Ego".
