“'Apollo Vibes' marked the beginning of a fantastic adventure within the Bedrock label. Having the privilege and honor to open with what is universally regarded as one of finest mixed compilations, the ‘Los Angeles' from John Digweed, was also a milestone for us. 20 years later to see a reissue of this track with excellent remixes is a great pleasure for us and the opportunity to share it again with you with new perceptions.” Pole Folder

Bedrock are proud to return to an absolute seminal classic. One of the biggest prog anthems from the turn of the century: ‘Apollo Vibes’ from Pole Folder & CP. Iconic in every sense, it captures everything that was exciting and innovative about progressive house in the late 90s/early 2000s. 

20 years later its timelessness is celebrated by an all-star cast of remixers. Recruited by label founder John Digweed for their strong sense of melodic and love for cosmic grooves, each act brings a whole new twist the space-bound original. Petar Dundov adds a whole new rocket booster as a vital new top line emerges into the mix, giving the trip a whole new sense of navigation. 

Next-up is another label family member Tara Brook with a take that stays true to the original. Digging deep into Pole Folder & CP’s iconic bass pulsations, she ups the tempo and adds a contemporary sense of energy while paying full respect to the blueprint. 

Finally Phi Phi and Manu Riga’s new Kayinda project makes its Bedrock debut with an exciting subverted conclusion. Lowering the tempo for a deep, sexy, swinging groove, once again the elements of the original are all in place but the arrangement, flow and focus bring it fully into the future… Ensuring Pole Folder & CP’s exemplary original lives on and mesmerises dancefloors for another 20 years. 

Complete with the original, in all its 11 minute glory, there’s plenty of rocket fuel left on this one. Ready for take off?

My journey into electronic music began after experiencing Sasha and Fortier live May 2000. I remember watching him play, then attending the afterparty, and thinking to myself, “I’m going to learn how to DJ.” From there, I embarked on a path filled with countless parties, raves, and festivals. I had the honor of opening for some of the biggest names in the scene, including Hernán Cattaneo, Deep Dish, Ricky Ryan, and Satoshi Tomiie.

As the Progressive House wave expanded across Latin America and the world, I found myself deeply immersed in the music that would become not just a passion, but an essential part of my life. I’ve had the privilege of dancing to sets from legends like Digweed, Cattaneo, Sander, Sasha, Fortier, Jimmy, Satoshi, Seaman, Howells, Cox, Lawler, the Martínez Brothers, Pachanga Boys, Pixel, and Visual Paradox, just to name a few.

I have a deep love for quality electronic music, and it has shaped my life in ways I could never have imagined

As a self-taught electronic music producer, I've been an attentive listener from my childhood, exploring genres ranging from Old Persian Pop and folk music to Trance, Nu Metal, and Hard Rock. While maintaining a strong musical connection with Hip Hop music in both Iran and the United States, my journey took an intriguing turn when I encountered a 4x4 beat at a higher tempo.
 
Introduced to Electronic music at the age of 18 while preparing to pursue a bachelor's degree in cinema, I underwent a transformative shift in my musical preferences. Transitioning from rap to genres like house, techno, and ketapop, I started crafting simple ideas and delving into various facets of electronic music. Exploring different genres, sound design, and, most importantly, the ability to evoke diverse and unique emotions without relying heavily on words became a significant focus in my creative journey.

Currently I’m focusing on creating music for the dance floor, but on my own terms, which I define it somewhere between Techno & House music, Power and hypnotism from the Techno, Groove and soul from the House. I produce my music entirely without hardware.
