Cosmos

Lucas Perdomo - Cosmos (Original mix)

An artist with a long, rich and varied history with Proton, Erdi Irmak has always been at the vanguard of the organica sound. Now he returns to the flagship label with a brand-new original track in "Nightwalker".

Over 70 production credits span the Erdi Irmak portfolio on both the Particles and Proton Music labels, a 2013 debut on the former quickly leading to the high watermark, "You're Either Guilty or Not Guilty" full-length album a year later. The "You in Me" and "Night" EPs opened the Turkish artist's account on Proton Music, before the "Hidden Arcadia" series quickly found its feet. 7 volumes later and a veritable smorgasbord of stunning original material and high-class remixes from the likes of Amháin, Rauschhaus and Nōpi, has seen Erdi form a special and organic relationship with the label as his music and production techniques have evolved over a 4-year period since "Hidden Arcadia, Vol. 1" debuted in late 2018.

Now returning with the smooth sounds of "Nightwalker", a deep and rolling percussive groove sits perfectly alongside a bassline full of subtle vibrancy. Female vocal cuts create a dancefloor energy as they add to the layered-groove effect while an analogue lead line creates a new and emotive direction at the breakdown. Extending into the second half, the return of familiar rhythmic components and cadenced vocals create another stunning track.

Adding to the EP, a delicate "2024 Retouch" of a pair of tracks from the "Hidden Arcadia" series supply another classy touch. From Vol. 2 a new version of "Echoes in Time" extends the rhythmic poise of the original while further developing the central melodic themes of the original. Additional vocal touches and a deep, smooth vibe create a perfect reworking a track and demonstrate how far Erdi's production skills have developed. Similarly, Vol. 4's "The Floating Bridge of Heaven" is another deep organic house interpretation that is centred around a silky rolling groove and meandering melodic flow. Retaining the central melodic ideas, counterpoint phrases and more uptempo vibe, generate a dancefloor friendly track that is perfect for Ibiza sunsets and sun-kissed terraces.

Continuing to show a unique craft and passion for his music, Erdi Irmak emerges into bright sunlight with his "Nightwalker" EP.

Presenting their first release of 2022, Roger Martinez's Higher States welcomes Alan Cerra to the label for his debut EP. Based in Argentina, Alan first emerged in 2019 with a contribution to 3rd Avenue's popular 'We Are The Future' series. His progressive sound quickly found footing with world class DJs such as Cid Inc, Eelke Kleijn, Hernan Cattaneo, Miss Monique and more. Further successes came across the next two years, with the Río Gallegos resident finding a home on Beatfreak, Hoomidaas, Mango Alley and Siona Records. Continuing on an upwards trajectory as 2022 takes shape, Alan now adds Higher States to his resume with a three-track showcase entitled 'Ascension'.

Getting the release underway and sitting as one of Alan's most infectious productions to date is 'Ascension'. Renowned for his ability to bring life to any dance floor, Alan layers strong chord stabs and a forest of manicured percussion over driving beats and a rolling groove. Epic and exhilarating in equal measure, the first act eventually melts down as ghostly overlays and blustery effects provide a smooth transition into the break. Pushing a poignant narrative, cascading melodies and warm textural drifts marry beautifully across the interlude, building emotion with each successive pass before eventually giving way to a thumping drop and charged finale.

The second selection 'Lacuna' follows suit and lands with equal vigor. Alan's smooth groove and hip swinging hooks power the framework, while whimsical arps and buzzing effects add depth and colour across the first movement. Placid overlays illuminate a tastefully euphoric break, setting in a motion a rise of drums and modulation onwards to a buoyant finale.

Putting a stamp on this excellent collection are the wavy grooves and psychedelic design of 'Isle Of Man'. Bright and uplifting throughout, it's a collage of lively percussion, striking stabs and spastic effects which captivate leading into the break. Wistful themes further the story as the centrepiece unfolds, bringing with them hopeful moods and transcendent vibes, before clustered sonics put your senses on alert for a thunderous drop and high-octane finale. It rounds out three excellent productions from Alan Cerra, a fast-rising talent who continues to grow into his place as a future progressive music star.
