Change Is the Only Constant

Force Major / Skyhook

Roy Rosenfeld - Force Major (Preview)

Next up, we welcome Simos Tagias to the label with the 'Mantis EP'. 

A prolific producer, Simos Tagias has released with everyone from FSOE and UV to Replug and Mango Alley. Based in northern Greece, he made his breakthrough with Lynx Records a decade ago, and has gone on to create an enviable back catalogue with support across the progressive scene from the likes of Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Cid Inc.  and more. 

Opening with lead track, 'Mantis', we are quickly swept up in Simos' epic soundscape. Dirty bass and gunshot stabs playfully work against shakers and sidechained pads growing the tension over time. Midway, new synthlines add meat to the bones of this chunky groover before the main break cools things off a touch. 

'Daydreamer' begins apace with gated bass and eerie atmospheres. Dark and moody, the sound design creates powerful mental images as the tracks takes hold. Closing the EP, the tribal rhythms of 'Breath' feel extra funky. Synth washes and sparse percussion give the track acres of space to breathe(!) creating a light breezy vibe. Solid work from one of the scene's unsung heroes.

Kasey Taylor and Karl Pilbrow return to Sudbeat with an exciting new double header including 'In The Zone' and 'Mount Epicon'. 

Since their last EP, the pair have been busy with releases on Kasey's re-energized Vapour Recordings, Visceral, The Soundgarden, OneDotSixTwo and more. Kasey is one of Australia's best-known exports. Already a Melbourne hero before John Digweed scouted him in the mid-90s, Kasey's incendiary DJ sets were the stuff of legend which intensified his newly global status. 

A force in the industry for nearly 3 decades, he owns 3 labels of his own plus releases on countless others, but it was his creative renaissance in 2019 that has catapulted him into new territories and garnered him new fans. If Kasey is considered a pioneer, then Karl represents his legacy. A current face of the city, Melbourite Karls meteoric rise is purely down to his dedication and talent. Known for his atmospheric and uplifting sound, Karl has shared the stage with many of his heroes already, who in turn are fast becoming his most loyal fans. 

'In The Zone' is a classic 'meeting of minds' collaboration. A funky tom percussion leads us into shimmering arps and bass sweeps before the main tribal bass pattern tears a hole in the dance floor. Deep and wildly hypnotic, the track grows with tempered menace toward and satisfying main break, after that, the floor ignites! 'Mount Epicon' starts with phased sonics, shakers and bongos before lighting up the room. As the Reese bass hits the whole floor is awash with waving arms and happy, contented dancers. A masterclass you'd be a fool to miss.

PAULUM Records proudly presents the third and final chapter of our first-ever compilation series: PAULUM011 VOL. 3, out August 21, 2025.

With four carefully selected contributions, this release completes the trilogy and highlights the international spirit and close-knit community at the heart of Paulum. Each artist brings their own distinctive voice, together shaping a powerful conclusion to this landmark project.

Caren Callas, based in Berlin, is one of the city’s rising female DJs, currently making waves on the festival circuit. With this track—one of her first productions—she marks the exciting beginning of her journey as a producer. Fresh, confident, and full of energy, it’s a glimpse of what’s to come.

From the north of the UK, Glenn Storey returns to Paulum after his well-received solo EP. A warm and dedicated producer, Glenn is also the founder of Music_for_no_one and has released on respected outlets such as OGE. His contribution here reflects the subtlety and groove that define his work, further cementing his role in the underground scene.

Rangø, hailing from Kiel, is not only a close friend of label founder Casimir von Oettingen but also his partner in running Bladehouse Records. Already known for his solo EP on Paulum, Rangø comes back with his unmistakable signature sound—deeply textured, atmospheric, and rhythmically precise.

Closing VOL. 3 is Daniel Meister from Budapest, a prolific figure in the minimal house community. Having previously released his own EP on Paulum, Daniel is widely recognized for his output on some of the most influential underground labels. His track here continues to showcase his consistency, quality, and timeless approach to production.

With VOL. 3, the Paulum Records compilation series reaches its finale—three volumes, twelve artists, seven countries, and one shared vision: celebrating minimal and house music at its most authentic.

Enjoy the groove!

Returning to Particles, David Leckenby's "Primal Connection" sees two superb original tracks backed by a pair of high-calibre remixes from Australian and Italian artists.

Rising to prominence in the latter half of the decade, music has been central to David Leckenby's life. With its "therapeutic and energizing" qualities, it has provided a spiritual sustenance to the Australian, while work signed to the likes of Consapevole Recordings, PHW Elements and Emotional Content Recordings has provided tangible success for Leckenby's endeavours. Returning to Particles after August 2019's "Stardust", "Primal Connection" is a typically multi-faceted offering with rich melodic layers pulsating gently against a backdrop of ticking hi-hats and heavy kick. A gloriously sustained bassline provides a spine-tingling melodic phrase and an arpeggio gently pans the left-right spectrum. Evolving gently through its swirling soundscapes, the result is a modern progressive gem. "Wanderlust" continues the strong bassline narrative of its EP partner while grooved stabs syncopate effortlessly against cool rhythmic percussion. A pitched vocal effect adds intrigue and a counterpoint melodic phrase sees Leckenby's production skill come to the fore alongside trademark textured pads.

Gavin Griffin and Matty Doyle's journey across Proton labels is unparalleled. Under their GMJ & Matter monikers, the duo has shaped the modern progressive house sound with their timeless and inspiring production work. Together they have featured heavily on Proton Music with a trio of original EPs, from 2016's "Superposition" and 2017's "Osmosis" to 2018's "Interscope". A remix of Leckenby's "Stardust" saw a debut collaborative remix on Particles as the Australian duo now return with a dazzling rework of "Primal Connection" that retains the central bassline of the original while adding a chunky melodic groove that infuses the track with dancefloor energy. Glorious new additional production material provides melodic flourishes and a spine-tingling breakdown offers a moment of joyous reflection. The result is yet another highlight in the GMJ & Matter production arsenal.

Andrea Cassino has been at the vanguard of the underground music scene since the turn of the millennium. First with production partner Alex Laben and latterly under solo guise, the Italian has been at the heart of all that is good in modern electronic music. Finding a voice with his solo work for Soundteller Records, ICONYC and Balkan Connection, supported by the likes of Sasha, Cattaneo and Warren, 2017‘s "Divine" EP for Proton Music was a notable highlight. Remixing the likes of Simos Tagias, Danny Lloyd and Nicolas Rada for Particles now sees Andrea Cassino provide a bouncing, bass groove-fuelled reworking of "Wanderlust" that revels in tight percussive syncopation and hypnotic prowess. A gloriously modulated arpeggio waxes and wanes, while the overarching theme of Leckenby's original cleverly infuses the remix alongside Cassino's Vangelis-esque lead line and swathe of additional production material.

Original music from David Leckenby and remixes from GMJ & Matter and Andrea Cassino finds a "Primal Connection" across their music.
