An artist with a cast-iron reputation within the underground dance fraternity, GMJ continues to chart a stratospheric upwards trajectory with an ever-growing production portfolio. Now returning to Proton Music, the Australian star presents a pair of new tracks through his "Rise Above" EP.

A Particles and Proton Music veteran with a stellar cast of original and remix material over both labels, Gavin Griffin continues to provide the flagship imprint with a regular supply of increasingly high-quality music that saw "Sovereign Reality" and "Catharsis" released in October 2017 and May 2019. Now returning with his third solo original EP, the title track is a typically sumptuous offering that is characterised by a head-shaking groove and expertly crafted bassline that evolves imperceptibly over time. Through a panoply of white-noise effects, multi-layered pads and subtle synth phrasing, "Rise Above" reaches a rousing denouement with spine-tingling moments expertly placed throughout. Continuing the atmospheric narrative of its predecessor, "Unbound Reality" finds free-flowing melodies meandering across its 7-minute voyage alongside intermittent vocal sample. Wrapped delicately around a crisp rhythmic shell, syncopated motifs and powerful beat are the perfect juxtaposition to the unencumbered melody.

Another Proton regular sees Simos Tagias return to the label after a remix of LADS in January 2021. Responsible for 2017's "Airlock" and 2018's "Audacity", the Greek producer has also presided over a clutch of high-profile remixes for the likes of Tim Penner and Soulwerk, while also being remixed by such esteemed names as James Monro and Petar Dundov. Once again hitting new heights, the Simos Tagias remix of "Rise Above" is a bold, pulsating affair that uses the themes central to GMJ's original and reframes them within a powerful new rhythmic framework. Using organic house inspired vocal phrasing, new melodies appear at the stripped-back breakdown before a refined arpeggiated sequence gives shifts aural focus in the second half.

A veteran of the underground dance scene, Savvas is another artist with a long-established connection with electronic music. After a 2011 debut for Bellboy Records, Savvas has found himself featuring on Sag & Tre, Magician On Duty and Anjunadeep. The "Mindfulness" EP was a notable Particles highlight in early 2019 while a remix of Rick Pier O'Neil's "Earth Mover" in July 2017 and a full debut EP to follow, mark an impressive emergence on Proton Music. Reworking "Unbound Reality", the wandering melodic lines of the original are complemented by a glittering arpeggiated sequence, revealed in the second movement, and extending into the beatless breakdown. Additional melodic phrases from the Savvas studio lilt delicately in the second half accompanied in seamless fashion with GMJ original components. The resultant sonic tapestry is a joy to behold.

Creating a new twin-track offering of unparalleled pedigree with contributions from Simos Tagias and Savvas, GMJ continues to "Rise Above" with impressive regularity.

Returning to Sudbeat after his amazing debut last year is Memory with a dynamite two-tracker remixed by Kevin Di Serna. 

Argentinian-born Matias Gonzalez aka Memory began his musical journey in balmy Buenos Aires before moving to Italy several years ago. His dance floor-focused grooves and ear for melody have found favour with a growing list of music lovers and high profile fans including Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and other members of the progressive posse. Given the high quality of his sound, it won’t be long before Memory is on everybody’s lips. 

After something of a hiatus, the opening track, ‘Surrender’ continues from where the Dysnomia EP left off: glacial melodies and warm summery grooves greet us with joyful self awareness. Subtly tribal in nature the gallop of the percussion sections drive the track forward with consummate ease, never in a rush, never at a loss. 

The second original, ‘Hygee’ intensifies the energy with a deep, growling low-end fury. Darkly satisfying, Bladerunner-esque sweeps keep things mysterious as the groove grows with layers of percussive menace, leading to a glorious payoff of epic proportions. On remix duties, self-confessed superfan, Kevin Di Serna  gives ‘Surrender’ a dirtier, bass-led rerub with devastating results.

Returning for its eighth outing, Meanwhile co-owner, Matter, makes his solo debut for the label via the unique musical triptych of "Amanita".

From his Melbourne home, Matty Doyle has generated a tsunami of success through his Matter production moniker. Able to point to a release portfolio with over 400 production credits to his name, such esteemed imprints as Balance, Anjunadeep, BeatFreak Recordings and Proton Music have all played host to his much sought-after music.

Now creating a new narrative for his unrivalled talents within his co-owned Meanwhile label alongside fellow countryman, GMJ, "Amanita" is redolent in trademark production features that have seen Matter in such high demand. A smooth blend of rolling percussive groove, heavy beat and cavernous bassline propel the track forward with unrelenting pace as a filtered arpeggio adds to the aural melange. A glorious synth lead enters the fray at the mid-point breakdown before a rousing wall of sound marks a club-friendly zenith before the track builds once more with its star-studded cast of musical characters.

The heavy beat and wite-noise washes of "Hikikomori" provide a weighty anchor, allowing an immaculately programmed bassline groove to weave its path between four-to-the-floor rhythm and offbeat hi-hat shuffle. A heavily delayed synth line adds a touch of class as it ripples across the seven-minute piece with ease, providing subtle introspection and emotive layers in abundance. The result is a head-shaking groover that is sure to the take dancefloors by storm into 2021.

A pulsating, running bassline immediately characterises "Wormhole" as it dynamically develops courtesy of an intelligently placed melodic variation that provokes a spine-tingling emotion in the listener. An array of percussive shakers and chest-thumping kick create a spellbinding sonic palette, while a free-flowing synth line drenched in reverb and delay adds to the emotion playing off the filtered and now staccato bassline phrase. Creating a flawlessly executed progressive house anthem, Matter has once again demonstrated why his production work draws such high praise from fans and peers alike.

A career that continues to mushroom at impressive pace, "Amanita" exhibits all the qualities that finds Matter very much flavour of month.

Matter - Hikikomori

An established artist on the Proton Music roster, Michael A and his "Fantasy" series marked a high point as volume 1 hit the shelves in September 2020. Now returning with a quartet of new original tracks, "Reverie" opens with an intricate rhythmic and melodic framework as shimmering pads and filtered synth melodies provide an earworm moment. Aptly titled, a crystalline arpeggio pierces the heady rhythms at the breakdown before the track evolves in the second half with poise and grace. "Obsession" is a typically vibrant affair with sophisticated percussive groove blended with syncopated motif and immaculate bass pattern. Building with ease, a meandering synth line flows across the upper frequency range with ease while white noise washes and effects aplenty add depth and dancefloor prowess. "Reminisce" is characterised by a light and intricate percussive groove, anchored by cavernous sub-bass pattern. As it develops, an array of textured layers pulsate across the piece before a delay-rich arpeggio and rasping bass line hit their stride at the mid-point onwards. A dark pulsating gem, "Bloom" powers forward with pumping bassline muscle while a dizzying array of shakers and hats pan the stereo spectrum. Melodic intrigue is provided by soundtrack strings and an array of sparkling synth phrasing, wrapped in a delicate piano shell.

Another regular on the Proton Music and Particles roster, Imran Khan has continued to carve out a continuing presence in the underground scene with a clutch of tracks across 2020. With his "Organik" and "Sunsweat" EPs gracing the flagship imprint in 2019, remixes of Lanvary, GMJ and Dmitry Molosh throughout 2020 have enhanced the UK artist's already impressive reputation. Returning to remix Michael A's "Silent Moments" from "Fantasy, Vol. 1", Imran Khan illustrates why his production skills are much sought-after with a trademark reworking that sees a characteristic rich and dark groove complemented by smooth arpeggio sequences and soaring pads. Building throughout, an array of original production material and intelligent use of Michael's remix components creates a gloriously contemplative offering that is a tribute to Khan's craftsmanship.

A newcomer to the Proton Music ranks, Lucas Rossi has seen his reputation grow steadily since a debut on Nick Warren's The Soundgarden in mid-2018. A seasoned DJ in his native Argentina, the South American has continued to find his music signed to such high-profile imprints as Balkan Connection, onedotsixtwo and Armen Miran's Hoomidaas. The latter with his three-track "Meeting Point" EP in March 2020. Reworking the title track from "Fantasy, Vol. 1", Lucas Rossi has created a rich sonic tapestry that centres around a hypnotic rhythmic bed of hi-hats, shakers and toms that provide the perfect vehicle for melodic tropes from the original to float across the eight-minute track with ease. Gradually building in intensity, the breakdown provides the perfect moment for a more detailed melodic study to take place while the second half drives forward with percussive intent, thickly textured pads and sympathetic attention to Michael A's original.

Four new original tracks and superlative remixes from Imran Khan and Lucas Rossi find Michael A continuing his sonic "Fantasy".
