In October 2020, GMJ released his debut solo EP on the Meanwhile imprint. “Mood Medicine” thus provided a tantalising glimpse into the Australian maestro’s musical soul with three original tracks of the highest order. Returning to the EP, a trio of remixes provides new insight courtesy of Paul Kardos, Sebastian Sellares and fellow label-head, Matter.

 

An artist with a rich array of music to his name, Paul Kardos has seen his work featured on such esteemed imprints as Balkan Connection, Soundteller Records and Darin Epsilon’s Perspectives Digital. Making his Meanwhile debut, the Hungarian artist impresses with a deep and powerful reworking of the title track. Intelligently making use of original components central to GMJ’s original, a glorious new melodic theme flows across “Mood Medicine” in sparkling fashion. Redolent in reverb and delay, sonic textures cascade across the left/right spectrum as new arpeggiated sequences and counterpoint phrases emerge in the third movement. A heavy beat and effervescent percussive groove add further to a powerful statement of intent from the Paul Kardos studio.

 

Fresh from the success of his “Dunes at Dawn” EP on Meanwhile, Sebastian Sellares has been at the vanguard of a fresh and modern progressive house sound since a debut for PHW Elements in 2018. Going on to see his music signed to UV, Or Two Strangers and Proton Music, his “Zen State” EP for the latter was a notable highlight in October 2020. Returning to Meanwhile, the Sebastian Sellares remix of “Precipice” oozes class as the familiar bouncing bassline and central melodic theme of the original envelope the listener. Building with ease, white-noise effects pulsate gently alongside a rolling groove and deep resonant kick as melodic sequences filter into sonic range, highlighted by a stripped back and spine-tingling breakdown.

 

Matty Doyle needs little introduction with his Matter production pseudonym. A regular across the finest underground dance imprints from Cid Inc.’s Replug to Roger Martinez’s Higher States and the renowned Balance Music, the Melbourne resident continues to dine at underground dance music’s top table with an inimitable blend of “deep synth lines, driving bass and pulsating rhythms”. November 2020 saw Matter debut on the Meanwhile imprint with his “Amanita” EP as he now returns to remix his friend, production partner and label co-owner. Reworking “Rite of Passage”, a trademark smorgasbord of rich and evocative soundscapes wash over the listener as glistening melodic lines flow enticingly atop. A chorus of effects pan the stereo spectrum in dizzying glory as themes inherent in GMJ’s original reveal themselves with ease. The result is another masterpiece of sonic seduction from the Matter studios.

PREMIERE: GMJ - Rite Of Passage (Matter Remix) [Meanwhile]

Both huge names in the progressive house genre, Alex O’Rion & Ezequiel Arias join forces for a debut on Meanwhile as the GMJ & Matter led imprint celebrates its 34th release with “Solis”. Two further solo tracks from Alex O’Rion complete the musical picture.

An artist at the centre of the underground dance scene for almost 20 years and with over 400 production credits to his name, Alex O’Rion has been a Meanwhile regular, most notably with his landmark four-track “Echium” EP in May 2021. A trio of remixes for Rich Curtis and GMJ & Matter themselves bookend a powerful portfolio on the label. Similarly, Ezequiel Arias has found himself at the vanguard of the modern progressive house movement with his standout work for a host of blue-chip imprints including Anjunadeep, Sudbeat Music and Nick Warren’s The Soundgarden. Now making his Meanwhile debut, Arias joins forces with Alex O’Rion as the duo showcase “Solis”.

The headline track is thus a powerful reminder of the combined talent of the Dutch and Argentinean pairing as “Solis” powers forward with chest-thumping kick and sublime bassline groove. Clave percussive flourishes add a summery vibe to proceedings as a filtered synth line gradually comes to the fore, mirroring the bassline foundation. Gently evolving across the 6-minute piece, a free-flowing synth line wends its way across the melodic collage while a beatless breakdown creates the perfect opportunity for a variation in the cadenced chord progression. Hitting its stride once more in the second half, “Solis” is a timely reminder of the silky-smooth skills and unrivalled craftsmanship of the talented duo.

“Pluvia” sees Alex O’Rion back on solo duties as a chunky beat and swung offbeat hi-hats create the perfect environment for crackling effects and pitched synths to flow in sparkling patterns against a backdrop of white-noise risers. Evolving with ease, subtle melodies play off each other in fluid rivulets of sound. Metallic wind chimes echo in random patterns as a smorgasbord of sound effects give the sonic impression of falling rain in a sparking track.

The final piece finds “Sericum” proving an apposite title as a smooth-roasted bass groove sits below deep kick and cavernous sub-bass pattern. A shuffling hi-hat top line provides subtle urgency as a mellifluous synth line flows like honey as the track reaches its mid-point. A reverb-soaked lead line adds harmonic variation as a vibrant breakdown creates the perfect moment of reflection. The rhythmic melange once again hits its mark again in the second half, accompanied by the array of opulent melodic elements introduced earlier in the piece.

“Through “Solis”, Alex O’Rion and Ezequiel Arias burn brightly in a stunning array of iridescent aural colour.

Guy Gerber - The Golden Sun & The Silver Moon(Mariano Montori Boot)

Dmitry Molosh's productions have graced Hope Recordings and Guy Mantzur's Plattenbank to name just a few, and supporters of his work include Max Graham, Matt Darey, Nick Warren and Hernan Cattaneo amongst others.
He is frequently guest on the radio shows of largest Internet radio stations such as : Proton, Frisky and Pure.FM.

Here he makes a welcome debut with three fine cuts, Kicking off with 'Fly' a dreamy and beautiful affair, that oozes class from every pore. Beautiful pads with a dreamy edge glide gently over the bouncing bassline, creating a soundscape of happiness as we build effortlessly. Meandering gently across the wash of warmth, while packing serious punch on the dance floor.

Next up is 'Counteraction', a mood setting intense gem, with its big gnarly bassy melodic stabs, laced with tinkling tones that culminate in to a sonic interspersion of wonder. A punchy little number thats set to cause a fuss with many a DJ from across the musical genres of the underground scene.

Keeping the quality level set to maximum, we find 'Delirious'. The title sums the track up nicely, as it works you in to a frenzy. Subtleness is the key here as this gem unfurls it melodies, while packing a mean driving affair. Solid beats, phat stabs, the cool riff and understated fx and squelches glue this all together wonderfully to create a bit of a beast!

Premiere: Khen - April Storm

'Cid Inc's Replug Records opens the 2019 summer season by welcoming Alex O'Rion to the label for his debut EP. As one of the Netherlands most highly regarded and sought after artists, the Nijkerk resident has found a home on Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, where he has released three artist EPs since making his debut in January of 2018. Also a highly regarded DJ, Alex has programmed music for some of the world's most iconic clubs, namely Ministry Of Sound and Fabric. Now fresh off a Spring release for Nick Warren's Hope Recordings, the Dutch artist lands on Replug for his debut EP entitled 'Marathon'. 

Continuing what has been a remarkable year for Alex is the EP's opener and title selection 'Marathon'. Enticing from the start, it's perfectly sculpted beats are warm and powerful, anchoring what is a rippling, free flowing foundation. Crafted with precision and care, layers of hypnotic percussion are blanketed with swirling atmospherics, ghostly vocal edits and fragmented melodies. Intrigue peaks as the main break unfolds, with hazy harmonic concepts and granular design uniting for an exhilarating apex, before ushering in a groovy drop and emotive finale. 

The journey continues with the driving vibes of 'Blaze'. Immediately captivating, it's billowing bass tones and finely tuned percussion play off a robust rhythmic core, making for a devilish, hip swinging groove. It's hypnotic appeal grows subtly, as vocal fragments and luminous tones add an emotive slant to what is an already mystical storyboard. Almost like a sonic comet, it's fiery energy melts down into a break of muted beats and astral designs, before a collage of tripped out harmonics sets the stage for an otherworldly conclusion.

The release is capped off in fine fashion with the introspective moods of 'L'Arbre Des Contes'. Expertly joining the past to the future, Alex marries sophisticated melodic motifs with meditative rhythms and tranquil textures. It's a unique and highly engaging storyboard, perhaps one of the Dutch artist's most heartfelt to date in fact, a creation to cherish for special occasions and no doubt a highly memorable selection for your dance floor. Groovy and emotive in equal measure, it rounds out what is an astute collection of music from Alex O'Rion, making for yet another extraordinary addition to Replug's impeccable discography. '

Sebastian Busto - December (Zankee Gulati Remix)

A returning artist to the Meanwhile catalogues, Imran Khan makes his original EP debut with the label’s twelfth offering, “Horizonz / Push Thru”.

An artist who has seen his stock rise at considerable pace after a raft of original releases on Clinique Recordings in late 2016, Imran Khan has gone on to see his music featured on such esteemed imprints as Balkan Connection, Stellar Fountain and Proton Music. A pair of remixes of GMJ & Matter’s “Lost on Origin” marked an impressive Meanwhile opening salvo in October 2020 as the UK star now returns with two sparking new original offerings.

Opening with “Horizonz”, a light percussive line sits atop a trademark cone-melting bassline while a heavy kick nestles perfectly in between. Evolving in seamless style, ticking hi-hats add further to the relaxed groove before flowing pads and searing synth line shimmer in reverberated echo chamber manner to create an eerie and haunting atmosphere. A searing analogue lead makes its presence felt at the mid-point before a head-shaking dancefloor collage erupts in the third movement to scintillating effect; the result creating a stunning debut from the UK artist.

Continuing the cavernous bassline and deep rhythmic groove narrative, “Push Thru” cuts an intriguing figure as organic staccato sound pans the stereo spectrum in pitched tape delay. Surrounded by an array of innovative spot effects, a muted synth line wends its way over the sonic horizon, gradually rising with open filter and increased release envelope to create a sparkling crescendo jam-packed full of modern progressive house credentials. Reverting back to the seething bass groove post-breakdown, “Push Thru” showcases Imran Khan’s skill and craftsmanship in lavish fashion.
