Amity

Boris Louit - Amity (David Leckenby Remix) [Massive Harmony Records]

A growing force in the world of underground dance, Juan Pablo Torrez is a renowned artist in his Cali hometown and far beyond. Head of the impressive Clubsonica Records, his growing portfolio has seen music signed to Perspectives Digital, UV and JOOF. Following a 2017 remix for Particles, the Colombian makes his original EP debut. "Nia" is a pounding progressive house gem that bristles with menacing bassline and rolling percussive groove. A vocal cut adds stereo-panned spice before emotive melodies make their presence felt into the breakdown and onto a dynamic third movement. "Jara" continues the glorious driving power of its partner track as hypnotic rhythms and arpeggios lay the foundation for a filtered female vocal to sit atop. A rippling synth line adds intrigue and a strong bassline change immediately adds energy and emotion as the track reaches its zenith. Additional synth lines in the second half provide a touch of class and mature production prowess.

A Melbourne resident, David Leckenby has seen his career trajectory rise impressively since a 2016 debut for Crosslink Music. An artist who has seen his work allied to such impressive imprints as Soundteller Records, Consapevole and Emotional Content Recordings – with support from Hernan Cattaneo, Mariano Mellino and Andrea Cassino – the Australian's "Primal Connection" EP for Particles marked a notable highlight in February 2020 including a remix from fellow Melbourne residents, GMJ and Matter. Now returning, the David Leckenby remix takes "Jara" in a smooth organic house route that envelops the listener with relaxed groove and muted synth palette via glorious piano phrasing. A ticking percussive groove adds intensity while a series of counterpoint motifs play off the central motif; the result is an innovative and impressive remix.

Joining forces in 2018, Toronto based duo, Beije, have an impressive selection of releases under their belt for such blue-chip imprints as Nugget Music, Polyptych and Paul Hazendonk's Manual Music. Now making their Particles debut, the Canadian pair have created a wonderful reworking of "Nia" that uses the recognisable melodic elements of Juan Pablo Torrez's work while creating a new rhythmic framework and mid-range bass pattern. The vocal phrase so central to the original is reimagined in hypnotic patterns that criss-cross the stereo spectrum in dizzying fashion. The result is a strong Particles debut appearance full of Beije's "hypnotic rhythms and melancholic melodies".

Two original tracks from Juan Pablo Torrez and remixes from David Leckenby and Beije showcase "Jara / Nia".

Jara / Nia

Jara (David Leckenby Remix) [Particles]

Deersky’s Soundteller Records welcomes David Leckenby back to the label for his debut EP. The Australian artist fist appeared on the Polish imprint in October of last year with a contribution to the label’s ADE Sampler. His multi-layered infusion of deep, melodic and progressive sounds has also found a home on Droid9, Proton’s Particles and PHW Elements. Now following the release of his well received ‘Bubble Boy’ EP, David returns to Soundteller with ‘Coalesce’.

Spread across three tracks it’s the reflective moods of the title selection which leads the release off. Punchy beats and rolling bass unite for a powerful low end, while airy atmospheres and playful melodic fragments add nicely to it’s emotive nature. Smooth and meditative, cascading lines continue to elevate mood across the first act, taking the narrative into a tranquil break and ultimately sealing it’s nostalgic feel.

Subcode Radio Mix 2021 - Dave Leck

An artist making a name for himself on an array of established independent labels, Dave Leck has been a shining light in the progressive house arena with his work for the likes of Emotional Content Recordings, Soundteller Records and Inception. August 2019's "Stardust" EP saw a Particles debut, swiftly followed by "Primal Connection" six months later, including remixes from Andrea Cassino and fellow countrymen, GMJ and Matter. Opening his latest offering, "Radius" is fuelled by a shaker-driven and groove-infused top line. Sumptuously syncopated chords provide instant dancefloor appeal as textured pads supply a relaxed vibe that develops into the breakdown. Picking up the pace once more in the second half, a shimmering arpeggio adds further to a blissful sonic collage. The title track sees "Elevate" continue the shaker driven percussive flair as arpeggiated synth layers and smooth pads create a wonderful sunlit opening. A glorious bassline adds emotion aplenty before a rolling breakbeat provides the perfect rhythmic anchor. Steadily evolving over the 12-minute timeframe, emotive piano motifs emerge and blend into the stripped back breakdown before combining with the other melodic layers to create a stunning and powerful track.

Kamilo Sanclemente requires little in the way of introduction. A talented producer based in Cali, southwest of the Bogotá capital, the Colombian artist has made a name for himself with music on Anjunadeep, JEE Productions and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Sanclemente's "Beyond the Future" series has been a notable highlight on Proton Music while 2017's "Revelations" and 2018's "Eva" made their mark on Particles with a combination of original tracks and outstanding remixes. Now returning after March 2021's remix of Izzet with Mauro Aguirre, the Kamilo Sanclemente reworking of "Elevate" is characterised by a thumping four-to-the-floor backdrop. Creating new arpeggiated sequences with melodic themes rooted in Leck's original, familiar piano motifs make their presence heard. A stunning new bass groove adds further while the remix opens up in the second half to create a storming club-friendly banger that entwines new harmonies and melodies with ease, creating a truly special interpretation.

A rapidly growing force, Eric Lune has continued to make waves since a 2018 debut for Sound Avenue. Going on to see his music feature on such esteemed imprints as Juicebox Music, Plattenbank and Flow Music, September 2020's "North to South" with Golan Zocher was an impressive Proton Music debut, while "Airbag" followed a year later and included a remix from the iconic figure of Bedrock's Nick Muir. Now making his Particles debut, the Eric Lune remix takes "Elevate" on a rich rhythmic voyage that delights with filtered chords that generate a beautiful sonic cadence of their own. Full of emotion, a glissando lead cuts through the mix at the mid-way point and into the breakdown before the rolling rhythmic pattern picks up the pace into the third movement to create an impressive remix that retains the character of Leck's original while transforming it into a new, brightly coloured sonic tapestry.

A pair of original tracks and remixes from Kamilo Sanclemente and Eric Lune have seen Dave Leck "Elevate" to new heights.

Redefine

Returning to the label and providing the first remix is David Leckenby. After making his Soundteller debut in 2019 with a contribution to the ‘ADE Sampler’, the Australian artist returned for his ‘Coalesce’ EP in August of 2020. Now following releases for INU Musika and Proton’s Particles, David returns to the label for a groovy rendition of ‘Prophet’. The framework opens up and the tempo drops considerably for a dreamy, emotive take that complements the original beautifully. Warm contoured bass flows through feel good chord changes throughout the journey, while flickering arps and sweeping atmospheres add just enough sensory stimulation to keep it tastefully poignant.

Ben Yang - Prophet (Dave Leck Remix)

Dave Leck sees music at the epicentre of his life. More than simply a job or hobby, music has therapeutic qualities for the Melbourne resident: “it’s a way of making sense of life and developing as a person”. A growing force within the underground dance fraternity, a 6-month retreat in Kathmandu saw Leck stir up a creative storm before returning to his Australian home to continue his creative voyage. DJ performances in Europe and America have added to Leck’s growing reputation and a production debut for Crosslink Music, in the shape of his “Soul Motion” debut, sparked a clutch of releases for the likes of Crop Circle, Consapevole and Nick Lewis’ Emotional Content Recordings between 2016 and 2018. 

This rise to prominence in the latter half of the decade has seen a growing number of increasingly mature releases find their way onto an array of blue chip underground imprints including PHW Elements, Soundteller Records and Droid9. August 2019’s “Stardust” saw another notable career highlight with a debut on the best-selling Particles plus a remix from fellow countrymen GMJ & Matter. “Primal Connection” for the label then followed in January 2020 with support coming from a stellar cast of DJs that include Solarstone, Hernan Cattaneo, Mariano Mellino, Andrea Cassino, Alec Araujo, Fernando Ferreyra, and Ricardo Piedra before an appearance on James Warren’s best-selling Visceral compilation series.

Able to refine his passion for deep, melodic and progressive house sounds through an immaculate attention to detail and unrivalled passion for his craft, David Leck continues to impress with 2021 releases for Balkan Connection South America, in the shape of the “Open” EP, while remixes for Massive Harmony Records and PHW Elements continue to showcase a burgeoning talent. Furthermore, as Dave Leck’s talent shines in bright, iridescent colours, the latter half of 2021 sees a continued upwards trajectory with a slew of forthcoming releases on  Onedotsixtwo, Section Records, Soundteller Records and Emotional Content Recordings.

Whether behind the decks in front of captivated club-goers or working in the studio with a rich sonic palette, Dave Leck’s unique abilities provide a musical milieu that exists independently from the outside world. Frozen in time where sonic expression forms a cohesive bond through the listener’s elemental connection to his music, Leck creates a maelstrom of sound which manifests itself on a dancefloor unified by a common purpose, lost in music.
