Stretching out towards the Blue Mountains in the west of bustling Sydney, George Alhabel creates an "Omega Station". A seismic bass groove reverberates across plateau escarpments as heavy beat anchors the rhythmic scaffold. White-noise effects crash like waves onto the rocks below, as smooth pads and glistening synths create a momentary stillness before a powerful denouement extends over the sonic horizon. A frequent flyer over the Mango Alley airwaves finds Belarusian star soaring to new heights. Subtle references to "Omega Station" create a new variation that finds brilliance in new aural overtones through Michael A. Familiarly dark, a powerful force of nature rises out of bassline dominance and hypnotic rhythm.

Returning from "Astrona", ARTN presents a new vision of "Omega Station" from a land of rich history and geographical splendour. Cedar tree forests create a verdant canopy as swirling synths whistle through ancient branches to the white-capped peaks of Mount Lebanon. A pulsating bassline develops in familiar patterns as syncopated synth phrases exude class. A new icebreaker from Forty Cats reaches dizzying heights with a bouncing bassline and driving rhythmic force. Cascading melodic effects glisten over Mount Visokaya to provide new sonic focus for "Omega Station", pitching and wheeling in glissando power.

James Monro - Injected With A Serum (Desaturate Remix)

Returning to Proton Music, Janko Dragovic has created a powerful narrative with his Desaturate production moniker. Reaching a notable highlight in January 2018 with his "Wanderer" EP, the Serbian artist now creates another moment of magic with "Spinal Slip". Joining forces with production partner, Goran Ferenc for the second original track on the EP, the duo's Dual Flux soubriquet provides another sonic highlight via "Ground Zero". Remixes comes from iconic Croatian and Belarusian artists.

Characterised by intricate percussive top line and commanding bass pattern, a filtered melodic refrain appears in Desaturate's "Spinal Slip" amongst waves of white-noise effects. Pulsating evenly across its 10-minute duration, glass arps appear at the stripped back breakdown before emerging in the second half with heavy beat and additional growling bassline, to mesmeric effect. The similarly forceful, "Ground Zero", immediately catches the ear with its driving kick and relentless bass as an off-beat tambourine makes itself heard and filtered stabs supply melodic weight. Striking vocal cuts add further texture in a track that builds to a rousing acid-fuelled crescendo at the breakdown, before launching into the third movement with gusto and force.

Petar Dundov is no stranger to the Proton Music catalogues with his work dating back to a June 2019 remix for Simos Tagias. Two original EPs have since followed with December 2020's "Salvation / Nature of Nature" and October 2021's "Spark" illustrating the Croatian's unrivalled production technique. Returning to Proton with a third remix, Petar Dundov's commanding rework is a majestic offering that evolves in characteristic fashion from a beat-laden opening to swells of familiar melodic refrains from "Spinal Slip". Emerging through the sonic collage, a glorious new piano refrain gradually builds to a delay-infused masterstroke, while elements from the Desaturate original criss-cross the stereo spectrum with dizzying panache. A new arp adds intrigue at the breakdown before melodic plucks and rolling rhythmic precision again flourish in the second half.

Another familiar name to the Proton Music roster, Michael A has continued to play a central role with a half-century of credits that has witnessed an abundance of original releases that included the likes of "Symbol", "Aura Tears" and "Geometria" between 2017 and 2019. Beginning the "Fantasy" series in September 2020 with an array of original new music, "Vol. 3" is set to hit the shelves in early 2022. A clutch of remixes for the likes of Dousk, James Monro and Pole Folder adding to his portfolio, the Michael A remix of "Ground Zero" takes the driving techno character of the original and transforms it into a lilting progressive gem. Glistening with flowing new melodic phrases that shimmer across the left-right soundstage, elements from Dual Flux's original intelligently sit in the opulent surroundings of Michael's production work, while a strong beat and ticking percussion add club credentials.

Originals from Desaturate and Dual Flux plus remixes from Petar Dundov and Michael A build a towering musical edifice to "Spinal Slip / Ground Zero".

'Chris McNeill makes his debut on Sprout, after several appearances on Beat Boutique alongside releases on Good News Records too.

'Obsidian' the title track is a deep and powerful melodic throbber, full of energey and melodious layers, while packing a real punch!

Next 'Calling You' brings a warm sophistication to proceedings as we enter dreamier territories, as the beautiful piano really brings the emotions to the forefront.

The Sprout label favourite D-Sens steps up with not one, but two remixes, and we begin with 'Obsidian'. This remix is a deep and mystical swaggering peak time gem, that really locks you in to its groove.

And the second D-Sens remix is of 'Calling You' , and utilising the piano, but stripping it back, allowing the vocal to glide through the deep bass driven reworking.'

Frankie Vertigo is back on My Secret Agenda with his ‘Moonface’.
The track, clearly inspired by nocturnal thoughtful moments, is developed on a deep and melodic groove, paired with crunchy and expressive drums. The plucked bass line is then the foundation for all those typical harmonies, that Frankie loves to add on his tracks, creating evocative and epic melodies.
Last, but not least, the release has been enhanced by adding an amazing remix from deep progressive house beast Aman Anand from Singapore. Picking his favorite elements, he has reworked the original to a peak time tribal affair, punchy and percussive, excellent to set the rave on fire.

First up, @ctkidobo transforms The Source into an absolute beast - deep, dark, and relentlessly banging.

Finally, Diamond Haze unveils the Twilight Zone Version of Halogen, an unreleased gem. Seven minutes of pure, weightless drift to close things out.
A journey from the depths to the ether. Transboundary Haze II is here - immerse yourself.

Hitting the heights on a regular basis, over 800 production credits sit proudly next to Michael A’s name for the likes of Sudbeat, Mango Alley and Replug. Particles and Proton Music have also been a regular home for the Belarusian with a further three original EPs between February 2017’s “Bright Hope” debut and May 2019’s “Geometria”. Returning with “Twinkling Stars”, the title track is a typically impressive affair with deep, rolling groove and seismic bass prowess. Building with ease a smooth arpeggio drifts into sonic range with its glittering delays. Aptly titled, shimmering motifs glisten across the track’s powerful rhythmic framework, juxtaposed elegantly against the lighter melodic elements. “Vibrance” continues Michael A’s penchant for deep bass prowess, anchored tightly to an exquisite shuffling percussive top-line that adds dancefloor dynamism. Before long, a simple motif comes into play to add hypnotic texture while sumptuous pads supply depth and intrigue that build into a post-breakdown illustrating Michael’s skill and craft.

Matty Doyle is a modern production heavyweight. Through his Matter moniker, the Australian has built a sizeable reputation for himself with a plethora of high-profile releases and DJ performances across the globe in London, Amsterdam and his Melbourne hometown. A host of releases on Proton Music in solo and collaborative guises – often with long-term friend and production partner, GMJ – has seen Matter release music of the very highest order that saw the 2016’s “Pronoia” and 2017’s “We Are Dust” EPs bolster his reputation. Returning to remix Michael A after a February 2019 reworking of Embliss’ “Lone Wolf”, Matter takes “Twinkling Stars” on a trademark journey of power, precision and smooth bassline dominance. Using the remix parts to creative effect, combined with a bevy of additional material, the result is a sparkling offering that grows in detail with each passing minute as filters and delays open up into a glorious breakdown crescendo of melodic passion. Continuing into the latter stages with ease, the result is near nine minutes of sonic perfection.

Janko Dragovic is another name steeped in underground music history. As originally part of the Progress Inn duo, Dragovic’s success under his Desaturate pseudonym is no less impressive. Moreover, collaborations with Rick Pier O’Neil, and Forniva on Particles has seen Desaturate amass an impressive collection of original music while May 2016’s “The Unholy Mountain” was a high-quality 3-track solo outing. January 2018’s “Wanderer” saw a powerful Proton debut as a remix of Huminal’s “Macropsia” in April 2019 is now followed by a compelling reworking of “Vibrance” characterised by a smooth bouncing bassline groove and syncopated percussion. Building effortlessly using themes resonant in the original, new melodic flourishes emerge that shimmer in rich delays. Hitting its stride post-breakdown, a filtered and modulated arpeggio comes to the fore to provide a dynamic vibrancy to the latter stages.

Originals from Michael A combined with remixes from Matter and Desaturate keep “Twinkling Stars” in ascendance.
