Luke Mandala - Tracks and Mixes (Melodic Techno / Techno)

Dnyana Yoga (ft. Pushkar Lele)

An exploration of lush atmospherics and gentle emotive soundscapes, each track unfolds gracefully amidst interplaying melodies and expressive effects.

Four individual stories are told, woven in sound, subtly painting unique landscapes of texture and motion.

A passage is illuminated in the spaces between, its meaning unveiled as each sound plays its song.

Open

A cheeky collage of styles on the lose. My Celtic blood showed up, endless distortion textures for some brain fuzzage. It’s pretty obvious I had NO fun at all making this!  🙃

Hitting repeated heights with his “Parallel Words” EP series in August 2020 and April 2021, in addition to work for the likes of Anjunadeep, Replug and Monstercat, Nōpi now returns to Proton Music with another original offering. Showcasing his twin-track “Overload” EP, the Ukrainian producer excels once more as the pounding beat and soft, shuffling shakers of “Galactic” bristle with a deep, elemental energy. Gently modulating synth lines merge with softly pulsating white-noise washes before a central motif makes its presence felt. Filtering easily, it is complemented by a swathe of effect and soundscapes while luscious pads add layers of listener interest. The result is an aptly named opener. “Overload” continues the chunky rhythmic poise of its partner track while an uptempo percussive energy and driving bassline groove create a dance-friendly character. Full of cadenced stabs that create a house vibe along with spoken vocal cuts, the track hits a powerful zenith in the latter stages before a new arpeggio is brought to the sonic collage in impressive work from the Nōpi studio.

A Particles regular since late 2009, Vinayak A has been at the forefront of dance music for over two decades. An esteemed figure within the underground dance fraternity, his work for Bedrock, Buddha Bar and Subtract, plus performances at festivals including Magnetic Fields, VH1 and Echoes of Earth have placed him as one of India’s most successful dance artists and sound designers. After a recent Particles remix for Wolfframm in February 2024, Vinayak A now debuts on Proton Music with a typically innovative and carefully sculpted reworking of “Galactic”. Steeped in trademark organic soundscapes, familiar elements from Nōpi’s original are immaculately blended with instruments and phrasing from Vinayak’s native India as a majestic piano chord and new bassline sequence sit perfectly amongst the original components to create a mesmeric new interpretation.

Recently joining the Proton roster with his “The Wind People” EP, Luke Mandala has a strong track record for a commitment to dance music that extends to mixing live wind instruments and drumming into his production work. A regular DJ across his northwest US home, Luke’s work for Dreaming Awake, Digital Structures and Uniting Souls Music has seen him become a sought-after figure. Reworking “Overload”, a delicate rhythmic opening, knocking woodpecker clave and atmospheric wind instrumentation, paves the way for a dark bassline groove to make its presences felt in the early stages. Waxing and waning with filtered and glissando intensity, familiar phrases from the original create a rich sonic landscape before the huge bassline dominance makes a play at the stunning breakdown before blending itself once more with the cast of melodic characters and spatial effects.

World dominance has come easily to Nōpi through his “Overload” EP with further assistance coming from Vinayak A and Luke Mandala.

Nōpi - Overload (Luke Mandala Remix) [Proton Music]

Happy to share this 12-2am set with you guys from one of the funnest events I've played in a while. They did a great job with this event and it fully popped off...as you can hear from the crowd (we recorded the crowd as well). 

I was playing some wind instruments and a drum pad and I'm finally getting a mix out that was recorded with a show with those instruments included. 

All the love to the Esthetic Evolution fam, treefort fest, and to you for the support!

Track by https://soundcloud.com/shankaranz from the compilation "Spiral Roots", compiled by @indra_dj

All the donations will go for establishing a permaculture estate with educational center for kids and adults in a small Croatian village.

Spiral Roots is a connection between organic sounds and mystical vibes. Roots connecting us with our home - Earth, spirals with higher dimensions, trough artists using elements of ancient music for channeling the songs that transcends time and fuses with highly intelligent electronic music production. It’s telling us a story that brings us closer to the reality of our ancestors and plant intelligence, as well as divine spark in all of creation. These squishy organic masterpieces put their listeners into a trance state of mind by combining the very best of ancient and contemporary. Amazing soundscapes of faraway lands, jungles and animals mixed with groovy beats, intelligent glitchy FX and lots of melodies that form bridge between “then” and “now”. Traveling through the hallucinatory layers of mystic and psychedelic organic dub sounds, this compilation brings us on a path of organic bridge created between the roots of the Earth and our existence

OUT NOW: desertdwellers.fanlink.to/BREATHReimaginedVol3

The third and final chapter in Desert Dwellers’ genre-twisting odyssey of electro world fusion, Breath Re-Imagined Vol. 3 opens the sonic gates to a realm of hypnotic and driving rhythms born from the interiors of the electronic underworld. Imbued with the raw and psychic energies of deep and ethereal techno, this 10-track opus completes the remix trilogy sparked by producer-duo Amani Friend and Treavor Moontribe’s top-selling 2019 electronica album, Breath, and draws us back to the dark tribal tech sound that started it all over two decades ago.

Guiding listeners beyond the bass-centric and deep-tech stylings of Vols. 1 and 2, Vol. 3’s international crew of remixers has tapped into the soul-stirring essence of Desert Dwellers’ iconic psychedelic sound and re-tooled it for the uptempo dance floor, deploying a steadfast mixture of uplifting and pulsating beats to showcase the surreal and often visceral dimensions embedded within Breath's original compositions.

Bringing the underground club and festival sounds of Europe, Australia, Israel, and North and South America to ‘Breath,’ Desert Dwellers’ league of remixers transports listeners through surreal and digital dreamscapes with tracks by Uone, D-Nox & K.A.L.I.L., Dance Spirit, and Griffin Paisley, while offering raw and cerebral detours at the hands of Yuli Fershtat, Jamie Stevens, and Speaking in Tongues. On the warm and evocative end of the collection come tracks by Luke Mandala and Djuma Soundsystem, with a euphoria-driven remix of “One That Shows the Way” by Desert Dwellers ending the collection and entire remix album trilogy on a richly-layered psychedelic note.

A tantalizing balance of dark and radiant musical energy that celebrates the diversity of each remixer’s distinct musical heritage, Breath Re-Imagined is both a memoir of Desert Dwellers’ reverence for uptempo music and a voyage into the soul of global dance floor culture.
