Breakdown of epic proportions! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Mariano Mellino returns to the label with another stunning EP. 

Born and raised in Buenos Aires, Mariano is one of the fast rising producers in Argentina.  Influenced by the cream of progressive house, his style has become a regular feature on high profile labels such as Balance Music, Plattenbank and Asymmetric Recordings. 

'Toro' opens with a confident tribal groove. Building in energy, melodics and airy pads hang from the percussive framework delicately giving the track a sense of space and wide-screen cinematics. The lead line is abrasive and adds buckets of tension to the main drop. Like a bull in a china shop! 

'Kon Kon' is a more reserved beast. Opening with a percussive energy, echoes of melodics punctuate before the main earworm synth fades into earshot. Meditative and calming, its hypnotic vibe satisfies and recalibrates the mind.

Really happy to be back at the fantastic Mango Alley with a remix with Matter which is one of our faves for a while for Forty Cats great original Ledokol! A stellar cast on this one! Hope you enjoy our preview!

"Breaking glass ceilings, Forty Cats rises to new heights from the edge of the cavernous Barents Sea. 

Joining forces from the southern hemisphere, a high calibre pairing of indisputable talent create another Mango Alley memory. GMJ & Matter’s ice cool sound ripples in pure waves of aural passion through “Ledokol”. Shimmering pads and resonant bass groove share a perfectly balanced juxtaposition"

Spring 2018 saw Mexican artist Hot Tuneik debut on Proton Music with "Revival". Now returning to the EP, new remixes from esteemed producers provide a fresh new perspective.

Taking the underground dance scene by storm with his distinctive and highly sought-after sound, Matty Doyle has found considerable success with his Matter pseudonym. Through a combination of "deep synth lines, driving bass and pulsating rhythms", the Australian producer has found his music signed to a host of blue-chip imprints that include Replug, JOOF and Anjunadeep. A regular across Particles and Proton Music, his work for the latter combines stunning collaborative material with fellow countryman, GMJ, in the shape of "Superposition" and "Osmosis", with equally impressive solo work that saw the scintillating "Pronoia" and "We Are Dust" EPs hit the virtual shelves in December 2016 and November 2017. Reworks of Dousk, Biologik and Cristian R have also illustrated Matter's silky production skills as he now returns for a fourth solo outing. Taking on the title track, the essence of Hot TuneiK's original components can be heard within the Matter interpretation of "Revival" as shimmering delayed chords and smooth grooved bassline stand out. Building intelligently with a raft of additional production material, a new bassline progression appears at the mid-point breakdown to supply depth and intrigue while a sumptuous beat and head-shaking groove keep the energy high throughout.

The 'double-headed dragon' that comprises the Lanvary production duo, has seen Alex and Andrew become a major force in the electronic music scene. Diverse musical perspectives have seen the pair delight with a musical recipe that combines elements from progressive and deep house with techno flourishes in a distinct and unique sound. Over a century of production credits can be found next to the Lanvary name since an early debut for Underphunk in late 2010. Going on to see their music featured on Stellar Fountain, Mistique Music and Particles, their work for the latter has found success with a trio of original EPs in 2015's "Micromegas", 2016's "Penumbra" and 2017's "Leviathan". Lanvary's work for Proton Music is centred around the superb "Venus" in December 2017, while a pair of remixes for Matter is now followed by a wonderful reworking of "Memories". Hitting hard with dominant beat and ticking off-beat percussion, a sumptuous bass groove quickly makes its presence felt as the melodic elements of the original resonate through the Lanvary interpretation. The pulsating string motifs from Hot TuneiK's track rise and fall throughout and a host of new production material supply dynamic dance-floor credentials to keep club-goers happy with a seamless blend of rhythm and melody.

Hot TuneiK's "Revival" is complete as new remixes from Matter and Lanvary reinvent and revitalise.

Across darkened velvet skies, "Almesian" burns brightly through the music of Golan Zocher and Greenage. Above South American and Indian continents complex constellations of sound are reflected in intricate percussive rhythms and galloping bassline. Stratified pads and filtered arpeggios glitter in deep reverberating space before "Alhena" appears. Evolving out of the same sonic matrix, a swirling and dense soundscape emerges in the night sky. A new energy formed from infinitely delayed synth lines and ethereal vocal phrases fly above seismic bassline and ticking rhythms.

Familiar melodies emerge across Gemini constellation as a new star is born. Bluum provides an unrivalled display of energy and emotion as "Alhena" charts a new course from the UK. Redolent in rich bassline dominance, new motifs provide elemental dynamism and explosive power. South America is once again the focus of attention where sultry rhythms emerge above Antrim's Cordoba. Exquisite sounds reveal themselves through ambient atmospheres and interwoven particles of noise that coalesce into new motifs and tropes; "Alhena" creates a new paradigm shift.
