---------
From his home on Australia’s south-eastern coast, Mike Rish has witnessed an impressive rise to notoriety, courtesy of a clutch of high-profile releases on an exclusive set of blue-chip labels. Not wanting to flood the progressive house scene with a swathe of formulaic dance music, the Melbourne resident’s “selective output” is based on a carefully thought-out commitment to “keep people engaged, but also wanting more”. Thus, Rish’s work for the likes of Colorize, Serendeep and Juicebox Music, has seen the Australian carve out a sizeable niche for himself, further enhanced by March 2021’s 12-track “Interlinked” album for UGENIUS Music.

Opening his Meanwhile account with the “Beyond” title track, a chunky beat and cavernous bass groove sit tightly against off-beat hats and snare. Filtering into sonic range, an elegant arpeggio provides glorious melodic interplay as white-noise washes and meandering pads pulse gently across the near 10-minute piece. Full of spine-tingling atmosphere, additional melodic phrasing is introduced at the breakdown before extending into the third movement with ease, combined with a raft of effects and masterful touches.

A bouncing bass groove immediately finds “Mindgame” oozing with hypnotic force and low-end menace. Sat perfectly in between deep kick and ticking hats, a flowing melodic line ripples across proceedings as it rises and falls with filtered dynamism. Twisted vocal cuts and acetylene-edged synth effects pitch with glissando range adding to the aural collage in a track full of dark and mesmerising beauty.

Closing the EP, “Here For You” is characterised by an intricate percussive arrangement that introduces a subtle melodic backdrop. Effects and textured pads span the stereo stage in modulated glory as a pulsating lead melody enters the fray in the second movement. Building steadily before revealing itself fully in the stripped back breakdown, the second half blossoms in commanding fashion with a pulsating confluence of rhythm and melody. The result is a track that illustrates Mike Rish’s unique talent and technique.

A musical triptych full of innovation and sonic narrative, Mike Rish has gone above and “Beyond” with a glittering display of production prowess.

🌙 A Line In The Sand journey continues with two
highly awaited originals from boss Mike Griego.

🌸 Starting with the highly awaited "Perfume" a
hidden melodic gem meticulously crafted.
Showcasing Mike's excellence and passion for
creating catchy grooves, funky bass lines and
precious emotional melodies which define a
quality standard that A Line In The Sand aims to.

💥 Last but not least, we have "Stop Me If You
Can" a dance floor oriented bomb that
demonstrates what the label has to offer. Sci-fi
noises, rotten bass lines and vanguard elements
marking a clear destination of a future sound.

“
In the haze of smoky bars and dim-lit streets,
A scent so subtle, a mystery it conceals,
Perfume, a whisper of secrets it repeats,
Drawing me in like a gambler who never heals.
Stop me if you can, for I'm ensnared,
In this fragrant labyrinth, I willingly roam,
Stop me if you can, though you may try,
With each whiff, I'm further dared.
“

Nikko.Z's Dopamine White opens the spring season by welcoming Nikola Jovanovic to the label for his debut EP. Hailing from Serbia, Nikola Jovanovic has emerged from his country's progressive house scene with a sound that showcases driving rhythms and melodic hooks. 2023 proved to be a breakout year for the Belgrade resident, with a creative swell of releases landing on BCSA, Deep Down Music and Future Avenue, and in turn earning support from some of the genre's tastemakers, most notably Nick Warren. Now, continuing what has been a prolific start to the new year, Nikola adds Dopamine White to his resume with ‘Deception', alongside a remix from Influence (IN).

Taking cues from the nostalgic sounds of the genre, Nikola crafts a groovy journey into the darker depths of progressive house with ‘Deception'. With a mysterious and deeply compelling architecture built around around chunky basslines, buzzing sonics and catch synth hooks, it's a series of peaks and valleys which ultimately makes for such a memorable dancefloor experience, one where an emotive break cleverly coaxes delicate melodies and glowing atmospheres for a groove-centric finale. The companion piece ‘Elemental' finds Nikola delivering another quirky progressive excursion that's nicely suited for those uplifting club moments. Squelchy synth lines and ghostly vocal gates combined with a smooth rolling framework and nicely manicured percussion provide a path into an atmospheric break. Here, Nikola builds anticipation through further synth mutations, nicely set against an airy backdrop of radiant textures, before perfectly segueing into a hip-swinging conclusion.

The lone interpretation of ‘Deception' is provided by Influence (IN) who makes his label debut. Based in India, Influence (IN) first emerged in 2021 with his ‘Lost Path' EP. Coming courtesy of Kash Trivedi's Lohit Deep, it was an auspicious debut for the newcomer, one which showcased his affinity for deep organic grooves and cross-cultural themes. Projects for BCSA, Future Avenue, Magic Room and more landed with much praise across the next two years, making the Indian artist yet another rising talent to watch. 2023 proved to be the most impactful year in the evolution of Influence's sound however, recording projects for Droid9, Juicebox Music and John OO Fleming's JOOF Aura. Now, presenting his first remix of 2024, Influence (IN) debuts on Dopamine White with a huge rendition of ‘Deception'. With a creative approach, Influence (IN) remodels the track into a thunderous slice of progressive house. Bound together by a hypno-architecture, it's a blend of muscular beats, shapeshifting effects, panning vocal fragments and hopeful overlays which ultimately carries this cruising journey, one where Influence (IN) unlocks a refined part of his studio repertoire.

PREMIERE: Manu Pavez - Dancefloor Thriller [Traful]

Clubsonica Records rounds out the month of November with a new EP from label boss Juan Pablo Torrez and Jossem. Colombian artist and Clubsonica label boss Juan Pablo Torrez has compiled an impressive resume since first emerging in 2007. Mango Alley, Plattenbank, The Soundgarden, UV and more have served as landing spots for his progressive creations, while world class DJs Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren have been steadfast supporters along the way. Also highly regarded as a DJ, Juan remains one of Colombia's premiere talents, sharing the stage with Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Sasha, Tim Green, D-Nox and more. Meanwhile, also calling Colombia home is Jossem who arrives as one of his country’s new names in progressive house. A collaborative partnership with fellow countryman Kamilo Sanclemente has yielded standout projects for Nick Warren’s The Soundgarden, amongst others. Now, combining their forces for the first time via Clubsonica, Juan Pablo Torrez and Jossem unveil their ‘Lost In Love | Ambar’ EP, alongside remixes from Marcelo Vasami, Hicky & Kalo and Abity.

Lead selection ‘Lost in Love’ finds Juan and Jossem introducing the emotive vocals of Velveta. A precious talent from Cali, Colombia who has already collaborated with some of electronic music’s finest innovators and labels such as Anjunadeep, Songuara and UV. Here the trio flex their creative muscles and craft a nostalgic progressive house gem, a sprawling production that would be equally at home above a festival skyline or sitting in the emotional sweet spot of an end of the night scenario. The companion piece ‘Ambar’ follows suit and lands in equally impressive fashion with a strong sense of drive and swing heavy rhythms. Although this looping hypnotism does not fail to command your attention, its slow burning anticipation, orbiting effects and otherworldly breakdown ultimately seal what is a mid-set masterpiece. 

The first interpretation of ‘Lost in Love’ is provided by Marcelo Vasami. A recent partnership with progressive house icon Hernan Cattaneo has seen the duo become a formidable remix team. Now, making his much anticipated Clubsonica debut, Marcelo puts a touch on ‘Lost in Love’. Taking a smooth yet energetic approach, he constructs a tight rhythmic core, complemented with punchy beats, reprocessed vocals and retro chord stabs. It's this timeless fusion of sound which ultimately makes for a version that is both refreshing and club-effective; one that should crossover to a variety of dancefloors across the remainder of 2024 and on into 2025.

The final interpretation of ‘Lost in Love’ is provided by Hicky & Kalo. Although regulars throughout Quebec's much lauded club circuit, it is the world-renowned Stereo Nightclub which has served as the home base for their impeccable taste and exquisite programming skills. Also accomplished producers, the duo's deep melodic sounds have found a home on Renaissance, Watergate, and their own Plaisirs Sonores imprint. Now, they make their long awaited Clubsonica debut with an inspired rendition of ‘Lost in Love’. Opting for a contemporary club-effective approach, the duo’s muscular grooves, robust rhythmic structures and hazy vocal mutations make this ideal for the peak-time hours, when emotions are at their most receptive, in turn adding another sure fire weapon to your arsenal for the remainder of 2024.

The release concludes with Abity for the lone interpretation of ‘Ambar’. Finding a home on Clubsonica, the duo’s creative partnership with the label began in 2022 with the release of ‘Sinerxia | Lotus’, a project which now finds them returning for their first remix, as they put their own unique twist on ‘Ambar’. Adding further depth to the release, the duo artist opts for an emotive approach here, focusing on a cohesive blend of swaying grooves and trance-inducing arps, while tastefully incorporating the original’s distinctive rhythmic qualities, sealing what is a feel-good journey to round out the release in style.
