Tight Prog

The House with My Soul (Part 1)

Sekuential & Verve - Into the Distance (Andre Sobota Remix)

Philthy Chit has seen constant support from Paul Oakenfold on his monthly Full On Fluoro radio show so it was only natural that when a demo came in from the UK based producer, it was snapped up for a single release on the newly reformed Perfecto Black label as well as the We Are Planet Perfecto album that was released in October 2014.

Backing the superb original mix is a fantastic ‘Rekonstrution’ by Audio Noir as well as a cool b-side ‘Agenda’

With far more to come in 2015 from Philthy Chit, including a new Perfecto Black Radio show on Digitally Imported, fans of the Black sound will be in for a good year!

Mike Koglin is a highly respected veteran of the trance scene. A talented DJ and producer that’s enjoyed a long and successful career releasing for labels like Anjuna Beats, Mondo and many more. It gives us great pleasure to welcome him to Perfecto Black with his stunning debut single - Kosmonaut!

The Original Mix is Mike doing what he does best, insanely high-end production and a dark, but catchy riff. Perfecto for Black!

A strong package of remixes backs the original. Naian, who is a regular to the ever consistent Saturate Audio, provides us a strong nu-prog take on the original while, fresh from remixing for Bonzai Progressive Cordoba puts his signature tech groove into action.

New Perfecto Black signing Greenhaven DJs go more traditional and steal the limelight with a beautiful remix which shows exactly why we snapped them up.

Iranian born but now firmly ensconced as part of the Canadian underground scene, Navid Mehr has been a long time contributor the electronic music movement, seen now with his, "Space Nomads" on Particles.


Originally part of the Beat Syndrome outfit alongside Hamed Safi, the intelligent Mehr has been responsible for a catalogue of high profile releases under his former production name over an impressive ten-year period. A decision to branch out under his own name has brought no less success as a growing portfolio of original and remix material has found its way onto CHANGE AUDIO, Visceral and Just Movement. With his work already remixed by industry stalwarts, Silinder, Andre Sobota and Pole Folder, Mehr's work has received high-profile attention.


Furthermore, the January 2015 "Gathas" EP for Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat imprint including vocal contributions from the multi-talented Amber Long, has further cemented his growing reputation among industry tastemakers. Taking his bow on Particles, "Space Nomads" is a driving, melodic work that drifts enticingly with muted riffs that grow in stature and prominence. Echoes of Petar Dundov's evolutionary style are prevalent as atmospheric pads mirror the lead line in meandering manner post-breakdown, to create a work of impressive quality and high production values.


Taking on remix duties, Russian born producer, Konstantin Alt has become a highly prolific and successful name under his LoQuai production moniker. Beginning his experimentation in electronic music in the late 1990s, LoQuai drank in all styles from ambient and trance to breaks and drum and bass before moving effortlessly into the progressive house arena with considerable aplomb. Studying audio production at the SAE School in Frankfurt was a further catalyst to success as LoQuai found a home on Mistique Music with almost 150 production credits to his name, backed by further work on Clinique, Jetlag Digital and Balkan Connection.


"The Native Language" was a considerable success for Particles after its initial appearance on the "Spring Particles 2014" compilation, while a collaboration with Ewan Rill for the "Winter 2015" edition has also been a notable highlight. Using Navid Mehr's elegant melodies to gorgeous effect in the opening movement, the LoQuai remix of "Space Nomads" then launches into a huge swung, percussive offering, replete with deep bass groove. A sublime lead line slowly emerges in the breakdown before twinkling motifs, arpeggio and additional production create a work of real class and elegance.


With Navid Mehr's excellent production work in full evidence, "Space Nomads" has found a home on Particles as LoQuai provides a further excellent interpretation.

Navid Mehr - Space Nomad (LoQuai Remix) SHORT CUT! Release Date 13 April 2015

Audio Noir has had a strong and steady string of releases since his debut in 2013 on Bonzai Records. He has gone on to have releases on Bonzai Progressive, Green Martian, JOOF and Drizzly before the track “Piranha” landed into the Perfecto demos inbox.

The original is a dark, twisting progressive track, which has a strong old school element from the gated pads and memorizing bassline.

Philthy Chit (fast becoming the ‘go to’ guy for progressive sounds) is on hand to bring us his distinct blend of music with a strong remix that has seen early support from Above & Beyond (GT121) and Paul Oakenfold in his Full On Fluoro radio show.

This package continues the Black ethos perfectly!

Trance legend Chicane spins newest Alex H track from PHW. 

@alexhumberstone

Chicane plays Alex H - Silver Lining [Sun:Sets Vol 40]

Label artist Khen has done a special 'Bronzed Re-Edit' of his classic 'Sunflakes' track. As a thank you for the great support we received on his 'Pollen Spreader EP' we're offering this as a Free Download. The Original version proved to be one of the biggest tracks of the summer season, earning regular play from Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J and Guy Mantzur. Eventually released in mid November, the track enjoyed immense success, reaching #13 in Beatport's Progressive House tracks chart (almost unheard of for an underground record). Now five weeks later it still sits in the top 50 and Khen has given it new life with his aptly coined 'Bronzed Re-Edit'. With an indistinct take on the melodies  and new found atmospheric focus, the much loved Israeli artist has crafted another exquisite dance floor gem. It's unique combination of warm ambience and rugged grooves produce a tranquil yet raw beauty. Certainly one we're proud to the put the microCastle stamp on and we hope you enjoy it as well, have a safe and happy holiday season. Much love from Khen and microCastle.  See you next year. :)

We live at a time when distractions from reality are never further away than our fingertips. Our phones offer us unlimited stimulation and temporary comfort. The possibilities of technology are endless, but they also limit the possibility…the possibility to truly experience and submit to the moment.

For me, going to a club has always been about letting go of the world around me, like a vacation from the nagging realities of everyday life. In the best clubs I have been to, the people were united by a desire to experience electronic music in the purest sense; to get lost in its tension and release. No matter what was going on in their lives, it was a place where, for at least a few hours, nothing else mattered but the sheer power music had to bring people joy. And those experiences - held only by those in that room, at that moment - were almost like the reward to submitting to a secret society. At the end of the night, I could look at my friends, old and new, and without saying a single word, we'd know that what we experienced together was something special, something that would never quite be repeated again.

Some of my early clubbing experiences have stayed with me for my entire life. They are why I'm doing what I'm doing today. There is not a photo, forum thread or social media post in existence to mark their happening, but the memories, the emotions I felt, the way those nights changed my life - those things stay with me to this day.

Somewhere along the way, we as a society have lost the ability to experience those special moments. On the rare occasion that they do happen, we scramble to grab our phones in time to capture them - but those moments cannot be truly captured - and they don’t need to be broadcasted or recorded. Sometimes, the best thing we can do is fully appreciate what is happening in that room, at that moment, with those people around us. 

I think our society needs clubbing experiences where they go home with more than just a picture to post on instagram. That's why I'm starting This Never Happened - I want to create that experience for people.

At This Never Happened, we invite you into a space where the only thing that matters are the people in that room, the music and the magic that happens when those things interact. An event where the dancefloor will be a phone and photo-free space.

This experience we share together may, by 2016 standards, have never happened. But those who dare will always know - something special did happen here. 

The first show will be a return to my hometown of San Francisco on 3 June at Mezzanine. It's a venue I've dreamed of headlining for many years and the perfect place to start this new chapter. If we can make this happen - and work - together, there will be many, many more. 

This Never Happened will not just be the name of these events, but also the name of a new record label. This label will be the outlet for music, by me, that is inspired by and made for this experience. The first song I'm releasing is called "Fingerprint" and you can listen to it below.

Putting this project together with my team over the last 6 months triggered a creative spark in me unlike anything I've ever felt before, and I'm so excited for you guys to hear the music I've come up with during that time.

I look forward to building this concept with you :)

Love,
Daniel
