Gajanana - (Original Mix)

Perc Capsule - Gajanana - (Original Mix) [Another Life Music]

Gracias Papà

Bringing together as a record label, event concept, community of like minded-heads and standing as the inaugural 1st release of the Time After Time label is 'Gracias Papá' a monumental yet special track dedicated to its own!

Sri Lankan duo ECHO DAFT and JAYY VIBES, after fantastic releases signed to Manual music which was released last October and making their debut release on Time after Time as the label founders. ECHO DAFT and JAYY VIBES has been occasional DJ booth partners in recent years and now the connection between the two has been evolved to making music. The name Gracias Papà is a resemblance of ECHO DAFT's Thank you Grandpa which was released on Plattenbank music and this time they wanted to dedicate this track to their beloved fathers and all the fathers around the world. Taking inspiration from their last release, the two bends their emotions and wrote something that lands between hypnotic and groovy. Precisely manicured percussions, layer of colorful arps and hip-swing bassline never let go of its rhythm and smoothly pushing to an uplifting state.

The release concludes with KYOTTO making his debut to the label with an outstanding interpretation. Hailing from Sri Lanka KYOTTO and Echo Daft have been frequent partners of late. Smooth chord changes and soulful atmosphere seals the heart tendering remix.

PREMIERE: Maze 28 - Abyss Rhythm [Juicebox Music]

Nikko.Z's Dopamine White opens the month of September by welcoming Stereo Munk and Dublew to the label for their debut single. Based in Pakistan, Stereo Munk and Dublew have been frequent collaborators for the better part of five years. Often finding a creative balance between progressive and organic house, the duo has taken their superlative sound to well established imprints such as 3rd Avenue, Mango Alley and Movement Recordings, while earning support from genre trendsetter Hernan Cattaneo. Continuing to deliver fresh music across 2023, Dublew & Stereo Munk now add Dopamine White to their resume with ‘Ballad Of A Distant Star', alongside remixes from Dark Soul Project and Maze 28.

Beginning with the Original mix Dublew & Stereo Munk masterfully synthesize their talents into one singular progressive minded vision. Warm punchy beats and a spacious groove set the foundation for a narrative of metallic fragments, cosmic effects and heartfelt harmonics. Pushing a melodic mood into the break; the duo marries glowing pads with balmy synth phrasing, building emotion with each successive pass, as orbiting effects tease the senses, before eventually giving way to a thumping drop and smooth meditative finale.

Making his label debut with the first interpretation of ‘Ballad Of A Distant Star' is Dark Soul Project. With a career that spans well over a decade Argentinean artist Dark Soul Project has remained a fixture of the progressive house underground, showcasing his groovy percussive sound via Balkan Connection, Proton Music and Sound Avenue, while world class DJs John Digweed, Hernan Cattaneo, Laurant Garnier, Nick Warren and Sasha have all been supporters of his work. Having appeared on label affiliate Dopamine Music on two previous occasions, Dark Soul Project now debuts on the label's ‘White' subsidiary with a stellar rendition of ‘Ballad Of A Distant Star'. While maintaining the elusive spirit of the original, the Argentinean artist crafts a version aimed squarely at the dancefloor, one where redolent themes, fragmented vocals and symphonic chord stabs blanket a beefed up groove and flashing percussive arrangements. Coming to full fruition across the main break, it's a bucolic college of texture, effects and deconstructed vocals which serves to elevate mood onwards to a supremely rhythmic conclusion.

The release concludes with Maze 28 making his label debut with the second and final interpretation of ‘Ballad Of A Distant Star'. Hailing from Albania, Mario Zefi aka Maze 28 has emerged as one of his country's most hotly tipped new progressive house artists. In just three short years the Durres resident has earned support from Antrim, DJ Ruby, Dosem, Nick Muir, Paul Van Dyk, Stan Kolev and more, while his melodic creations have found a home on Droid9, Mango Alley, Panda Lab and his own Best Pro Records imprint. Now, fresh off a contribution to Juicebox Music's popular ‘Fables' collection, Maze 28 adds Dopamine White to his resume with an exhilarating take on ‘Ballad Of A Distant Star'. Sitting comfortably in an emotive yet thought provoking space, Maze 28's titanium kick drums and tougher groove set the pace for percolating effects and sweeping harmonies to rise as the main break evolves, eventually breaking off as a flurry of pyrotechnic synths sparks a pulsating drop and thunderous finale.

Ballad of a Distant Star

Ballad of a Distant Star (Maze 28 Remix) [Dopamine White]

Clubsonica opens the month of May with a new collaborative project from Maze 28 and Rockka. Hailing from Albania, Mario Zefi aka Maze 28 has emerged as one of his country's most hotly tipped progressive house artists. In just three short years the Durres resident has earned support from genre tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, while his melodic creations have found a home on Juicebox Music, RKP and Mango Alley, the latter of which operates as his primary home. Meanwhile, hailing from Sri Lanka, Rockka aka Lakith Adikaram has been releasing his own unique style of progressive music for the better part of three years. Although younger than most of his contemporaries, the Nugegoda resident impressed going forward, quickly landing projects with Balkan Connection, Droid9, Mango Alley and Yomo Records. Having previously collaborated on EP's for iNU and Mango Alley, Maze 28 and Rockka now add Clubsonica to their joint discography with ‘Mirage | Solid', alongside remixes from Juan Ibanez and Mauro Aguirre. 

Maze 28 and Rockka continue to showcase their growing creative synergy on selection one ‘Mirage'. Full of rejuvenating dancefloor energy, the cross-continental duo expertly blends robust kick drums and electric grooves with flashing percussion and crunchy effects. Deconstructed vocals and spiralling arps steal the air leading into the break, casting a darker monochrome over the journey, before an effects-laden build cues a rush of pyrotechnic synths and melodic alchemy. The companion piece ‘Solid' continues the duo's main room assault but with greater atmospheric depth, all while maintaining the darker tone set by its predecessor. Complete with ultrasonic qualities, it's an energy rush for ages, one where Maze 28 and Rockka's creative attitude shines, as roller coasters of undulating basslines, metallic melodies and astral effects unite for an exhilarating peak-time journey. 

The interpretation of ‘Mirage' is provided by Juan Ibanez. Support from world class DJ Hernan Cattaneo, along with releases for Freegrant Music, onedotsixtwo, Or Two Strangers and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden have etched Juan's place amongst progressive music's top talents. Now, following an appearance The Soundgarden's Winter Collection, Juan returns to Clubsonica with an inspired rendition of ‘Mirage'. Bringing a progressive state of mind, Juan carefully balances the themes from the original with his own melodic groove-centric sound. Timely effects and commanding drums steal the air atop thunderous beats, rippling grooves and evolving atmospheres; while a trance-inspired break seals what is the ultimate dance floor bomb to complement an already huge original. 

The release concludes with Mauro Aguirre for the interpretation of ‘Solid'. Clubsonica has been Mauro's primary home in recent years. With a recent debut on Balance Music getting 2024 underway in fine fashion, Mauro now returns to Clubsonica for his first solo remix of the year, taking ‘Solid' into his own world of melodic progressive house. Opting for a dubbier and more groove-centric approach, Mauro aims squarely at a peak-hour dancefloor here, with rolling rhythms and panning melodies creating a smooth yet energy inducing first act. Looking to bring greater emotional depth, poignant chord changes emerge across the main break, slowly rising against a backdrop of rich textural colour, before segueing into a hair-raising finale; one that's complete with muscular grooves and a fragmented take on the melody. A remix which is not only ideal for the astute connoisseur, but closes the release out as one of Mauro's most accomplished productions to date.

Rockka & Maze 28 - Mirage (Juan Ibanez Remix)

Juicebox Music's 77th release sees Maze 28 making his return to the label with his latest single - "Cry of the Deserts". The Albanian rising star first made his debut on Juicebox Music through "Abyss Rhythm", his contribution to the 2nd edition of our 'Fables' compilation. Better known to his friends and family as Mario Zefi, Maze 28 has been on a hot-streak with chart-topping releases on Mango's 'Mango Alley' & Paul Thomas' 'UV', as well as winning Breeder's "Tyrantanic" remix competition, alongside Freedo Mosho, on the seminal Hooj Choons. We're excited to present his latest offering "Cry of the Deserts", an Arabian-inspired track with his signature chunky bassline, driving groove & ethnic hooks.

We called upon one of our core artists for the first remix. Enter Aman Anand, the Indian artist based in Singapore, who's made 5 appearances on our imprint since 2016, including a collaboration with label-boss Praveen Achary with "Fiasco". Aman Anand's influences range across the board from Electronica to Progressive House to Deep Techno, culminating in a unique sound that truly reflects his vision, earning him releases on Hernan Cattaneo's 'Sudbeat', Frankie Vertigo's 'My Secret Agenda', Bondarev's 'WARPP' & many more. His remix of Maze 28's "Cry of the Deserts" flips the mood on it's head and heads towards the darker & hypnotic side.

The final remix comes from a collaboration between two label debutants - Molac & Nicolas Viana. The Ecuador-based artist Alan Gonzalez (aka Molac) & Argentinian-based artist Nicolas Viana, both a part of the Sendas Music Collective recently started working together. Individually, they've both seen incredible success whether it's Molac's music on Lee Burridge's 'All Day I Dream' or Nicolas Viana's music on Gorje Hewek's 'Peace Symphonies' or both on MODD's 'Amulanga' & MOS's 'Melody of the Soul'. Their organic-infused and progressive-inspired styles perfectly merged into one, as showcased via their remix of Maze 28's "Cry of the Deserts".

O1. This Is The Moment (Original Mix) 
02. This Is The Moment (Willscape Remix)
03. This Is The Moment (Ivanshee Remix)
04. This Is The Moment (Gux Jimenez Remix)

Kamilo Sanclamente delivers an anthem track. The vocal lyrics will focus any crowd into a unified progressive movement state. It's a timeless classic with the expected groove, and mantras we've come to love from Kamilo Sanclamente but with an extra special unifying vocal.

Gux Jimenez takes this original track and transforms it into an upbeat and groovy version. The track is layered with sophisticated synth elements and the vocal takes a robotic psychedelic twist.

Ivanshee delivers a remix with undeniably escalating builds, with a series of atmospheric and panning effects that give the original a new sense of depth.

Willscape takes the original and does his usual work of making a full grandiose version. Thumping baselines and hard hitting kicks will shake a dance floor. With a panning chorus' atmosphere the vocal anthem becomes cathedral size in sound.
