Maze 28 | Rio De Janeiro [ALTITUDE Mixtapes 002]

Portugal-based producer Fran Garay is quietly becoming one of the underground’s most compelling voices. With releases on tastemaker labels like Balance Series, Mango Alley, and Univack, his sound balances deep emotion with sleek, club-focused production. Once a dubstep-obsessed kid recording radio hits on his mom’s phone, Garay has evolved into an artist with a clear sonic identity—shaped by mentors like Eze Arias and driven by a hunger to create music that sticks. “When I fall in love with an artist, I dive into their story,” he says—something clearly reflected in his own ever-evolving journey.

On this Balance Selections podcast, Fran delivers a dense 60 minutes of progressive sounds squarely aimed at the dancefloor. Featuring tracks from Simón Vuarambon, Ric Niels, and a host of Fran’s own productions, this is the sound of an artist with a truly singular sonic identity.

073 PROGRESSIVA On Proton Radio - 16th May 2025

Just got back from an unforgettable tour through Argentina and honestly, I’m still buzzing. Thank you to everyone who came out and made each night so special. Here’s a live recording from my night in Rosario, always one of my favourite cities to play.

Alex O'Rion - Live from Sunset Rosario [18/05/25]

Rick Offen’s MORDIDA, arriving on 09.05.25 via Ritmo Futuro, is a boundary-pushing, multi-genre album that seamlessly blends club energy with introspective, non-club moments.

Spanning 14 tracks, the album explores themes of anxiety, social pressure, love, and the complexities of a relationship, all while navigating the paradox of life’s wins and losses and the relentless passage of time. MORDIDA balances electrifying beats with emotional depth across a diverse sonic landscape. The journey culminates with a powerful closing poetry track, inspired by a piece of art that deeply resonated with the artist.

A truly dynamic and immersive experience, MORDIDA invites listeners to confront the complexities of existence, love, and heartbreak on the dancefloor and beyond.

Rick Offen - PRADO  [RITMO FUTURO]

Dirty Done Dixie Deep is a sexy cut. Fantastic ultra lunge and chill feel about the song.

Alain Pauwels is a progressive house dj/producer based near Antwerp, Belgium.
Led by a profound love for electronical music, surrounded by passionate professionals, practitioners and a supportive progressive house family, Alain has been driven to share his passion of mixing sublime tracks and to bring joy across all boundaries.
Inspired by pioneers in the scene such as Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Marcelo Vasami amongst others and many well-respected labels, Alain started to dedicate himself in creating uplifting progressive house mixing, with an occasional flavor of deep house, organic house and melodic techno.
As from end-2018 Alain has his own ‘PROGRESSIVA’ show on Proton Radio, a US based digital radio station which also runs its own record label. Alain invites every month an international artist to provide a guest mix for the show. Alain also has residency on XBeat Radio, a French/Belgian digital radio station, providing his monthly ‘Elements’ podcast. 
His live dj performing path re-started mid-2019, after a sabbatical of nearly 20 years coming from the vinyl age. In that same year he became, and till date still is, resident at the Connecting Souls nights by Clay van Dijk. Ever since Alain has performed in clubs and on events where he shared the decks with Hermanez, Eran Aviner, Madloch, Lost Desert, Kasper Koman, Nicolas Rada, Marcelo Vasami, Alex O'Rion, Dmitry Molosh, Danny Howells and Eichenbaum amongst others.
As from end-2019 Alain has started a collaboration with French producer Arnold Toutain, which resulted till date in productions which are released on Nature Rec, Musique de Lune, Future Avenue, 3rd Avenue and INTU Music. Each release has been supported by ‘El Maestro’ Hernan Cattaneo and many other well-respected artists in the community. Alain has started as well a collaboration with Argentinian dj/producer Valen Gonzalez, receiving already early support in these and released on onedotsixtwo, LuPS and Mango Alley.
Watch out for Alain as the coming years will bring more new music and gigs, which makes him here to stay!
