Purplemonk (@theodoros-efstathiou-37) joins Dream Schemes for our 14th release, delivering 2 vibey jungle tracks to get the dancefloor moving.

A side - Missing U - is a groovy number, starting off on a chilled melodic note with catchy arps before descending into beefy reese and amen madness.

B side - Feel It - starts off a bit more reserved, building up nice break work and melodics before firing out into pure breaks and bass. As the track moves on it goes full circle to bring back the chilled vibes.

Purplemonk - Missing U

**"For me, AccessDenied isn’t just a name – it’s a feeling. It’s about all those moments in life when you try to break through, but something invisible holds you back. I write music to push past that wall. My songs aren’t perfect — they’re raw, vulnerable, and alive — just like me. Every beat is a thought I couldn’t say out loud, every drop is a breath I’ve been holding for too long.

AccessDenied is my outlet and my rebellion. I blend the electronic with the human, the dark with the hopeful. I want people to feel free to be broken, angry, happy, or everything at once. Because in the end, it’s not about escaping reality — it’s about facing it with open eyes, and letting the music speak when words can’t."**
