To dig crates in 2023 is to explore an electronic ecosystem beyond taxonomising; there are now more tracks on Beatport than there are people in Hong Kong, and (as in nature) specialisation is the key to a producer’s success. Brothers Hayden and Barton Strom (Out of Sorts) understand this, having perfected a brawny but restrained style of house across their post-Antix career. Their latest release with T-Bone for Beat & Path presents the essentials of this sound with time-won self-assurance.

‘The Key’ centres around a confident vocal line from T-Bone, a Kiwi producer and vocalist who brings a blues influence to this extraplanetary expedition. With twenty-seven years in the underground electronic scene, Out of Sorts have the dexterity to try unconventional approaches; here they’ve begun with acoustic stems recorded by T-Bone on an Akai multitrack, manipulating them into a spacey early-morning house piece. The result is as much a song as it is a track, an exquisite electronic sculpture covered in acoustic fingerprints, and will appeal to lovers of Innervisions and the ecstatic gravity of the South African deep house sound.

The B-side is from Jamie Stevens, a man whose release schedule is absolutely sprawling this year (with releases on Balance, Bedrock and Selador in March alone). His mature, restrained signature is immediately audible on this seven-minute remix, which is too certain in its source material to bother with dramatic builds and drops. A few meticulously chosen elements and an irresistible groove; good dance music requires nothing more.

► Release Info:

An artist with a select but impressive collection of releases to her name, Sarah Britton, has created a scintillating sonic palette through her Eko Centrik production soubriquet. Via a multi-faceted tapestry of sounds that cite Portishead, Sasha, Jon Hopkins and Max Cooper as influences, the UK singer/songwriter has created a unique amalgam of triphop, progressive house and electronica into a unique sonic identity. Able to harness modular synthesis with organic instrumentation and vocal expression, the Eko Centrik sound is equally at home in the shared club environment as it is in isolated headphone moments. A production portfolio that began with a 2018 debut for Incepto Smooth, then led to work for the ever-reliable Spring Tube, before releasing on Another Life Music and Londam in 2022 and 2023.

Now debuting on Balance Music, 'Half Light Island' is propelled but a deep resonant kick and ticking percussive hi-hat combination. A chorus of atmospheric effects redolent in delays and reverb add a rich sonic texture as progressive stabs and textured pads evolve into an evocative aural landscape. Ethereal vocal treatments blend effortlessly between the real and electronic before a breakdown full of modular finesse then blossoms into a club floor-filler where rhythm and melody combine in dynamic fashion.

An iconic figure within the underground dance fraternity, Jamie Stevens remains a leading figure whose meticulous production skills continue to excite and enthral. Jamie’s solo work has been in high demand from a legion of high-profile labels. Bedrock, microCastle and Guy J’s Lost & Found have all played host to his distinctive sound, while Balance Music has witnessed a clutch of superb original productions with Garance and fellow Australian, GMJ, and well as remixes for Jam & Spoon, Rich Curtis and Anton Tumas. Returning for a fourth remix, the Jamie Stevens reworking of 'Half Light Island' retains the central melodic themes of Eko Centrik’s work while a new 16th note running bassline provides dancefloor urgency. Cleverly using some of the more atmospheric components of the original, a swathe of additional production material pulsates gently across the track in majestic fashion. Waxing and waning with subtle knowhow, Jamie’s remix hits its mark time and again with precision engineering and a series of ever-powerful drops that create a seething, driving vibrancy.

'Inside' is a sublime collage of stepped arpeggio and complementary motifs that drift in easy fashion across a 5-minute timeframe. Evolving easily, a stripped back soundstage paves the way for a loquacious vocal treatment to take centre stage as it coruscates gently atop an intricate percussive backdrop and metronomic 4/4 beat.

The final track sees 'Sunflower' ripple with a sweeping flow of arpeggiated motifs combined with counterpoint piano phrasing, laced with stereo-panned white-noise effect at the breakdown. Driven by a chunky rhythmic backdrop that provides the perfect accompaniment for the melodic elements to shine, the result is a unique offering that epitomises the Eko Centrik sound and approach to electronic music.

PREMIERE: Eko Centrik - Half Light Island (Jamie Stevens Remix) [BALANCE MUSIC]

An artist with a powerful story to tell, Hrag Mikkel has been at the forefront of underground dance music since 2017. Now returning to Proton Music for a debut original EP, "Cosmic Bliss / Silver Night" continues that adventure.

Born and raised in Lebanon under a raft of challenging circumstances, Hrag Mikkel's voice has resonated loudly through his inspiring sound and sonic mastery. A regular on the likes of Pipe & Pochet, Kindisch and Armen Miran's Hoomidaas, Hrag made a memorable mark on Proton Music with a glorious reworking of Nōpi's "Liquid Week" with fellow countryman Pambouk in April 2021. Now providing the label with two original tracks, "Cosmic Bliss" is a wonderfully imagined work that combines organic and synthesised melodies in sublime symbiosis. An effortless groove provides subtle urgency as glassy keys and counterpoint motifs collide gently against each other to create a palette of brilliant sonic colours. Rippling through a beatless break, melodic elements pick up the pace once more in the second half with poise and grace. "Silver Night" carries the same percussive liquidity as its counterpart with familiar elements continuing the narrative groove. Immaculately placed riffs cascade around each other in a delightful call and response as delayed synths and smooth keys create the perfect juxtaposition. Waxing and waning with ease, the various sonic elements create a typically rich aural tapestry that effortlessly showcases the Hrag Mikkel sound.

Jamie Stevens has been creating standout dance music productions for over two decades, both as part of the award-winning Infusion band and in solo guise. A veteran of such esteemed imprints as Bedrock, Lost & Found, Selador and Sudbeat Music, the Australian has been a regular on Proton Music since late 2019 with a quartet of exquisite remixes. Reworking Rudy, Petar Dundov, Magitman, and James Monro (the latter in April 2023), Jamie returns to Proton Music with a fifth remix. Reimagining "Cosmic Bliss", a powerful rhythmic force immediately comes to the fore with superb jungle sounds reminiscent of Future Sound of London forming an atmospheric backdrop. Taking familiar motifs from the original, his skill is to rework them into an evocative 9-minute extravaganza that fires off in new directions, not least in a spine-tingling bass progression and meandering pads. Hitting its stride with a storming breakbeat pattern in the second half, the combination of melodic prowess and dancefloor force illustrates a supreme talent still at the top of his game.

The final remix sees Pablo Maneiro make his Proton Music debut through his Mayro production soubriquet. Author of over 150 production credits, the Argentinean star quickly found his place through his effortless merging of genres which led to a 2018 debut on Renesanz. Since then, music signed to the likes of Mango Alley, Perspectives Digital and Miss Monique's Siona Records has seen Mayro making sizeable headlines supported but Eelke Kleijn, Armen Miran and Cid Inc. A clutch of releases on Particles was punctuated by the impressive "Crazy Thoughts" EP in mid-2022 as Mayro now makes his Proton Music debut. Reworking "Cosmic Bliss", a driving beat and ticking off-beat percussion provides a club-friendly framework from which familiar melodic phrases make their presence felt. Adding an array of additional production material in the shape of new motifs and shimmering effects, Hrag Mikkel's track is taken in a dramatic new direction, not least via a rasping, razor-edged bassline groove that powers the remix forwards. Pulsating waves of pads and stereo-panned effects add to the vibrancy in the second half to create a dynamic and visceral offering.

Two original tracks plus stunning remixes from Jamie Stevens and Mayro find Hrag Mikkel in a state of sonic "Cosmic Bliss".

Hrag Mikkel - Cosmic Bliss (Jamie Stevens Excursion 92 Mix)

Starting 2024 with fresh new music, Meanwhile begins the year with two seasoned producers of the progressive house scene as Navar and Golan Zocher collaborate to produce, “Zoom Out”. A single remix comes courtesy of a legendary Australian artist.

A hugely respected artist within the underground dance fraternity, Navar has been at the vanguard of electronic music for over a decade. From early work for Klopfgeist, the Dutch star has been a regular on fellow countryman, Eelke Kleijn’s Outside The Box as well as Guy J’s Lost & Found and Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music. Making his Meanwhile debut remixing Alex O’Rion in early 2022, the 3-track “Return of the Sun” at the end of the year shone an iridescent glow over Navar’s production credentials. Similarly, Golan Zocher is another artist with an impressive production portfolio to his name. Work for Clubsonica Records, Mango Alley and Darin Epsilon’s Perspectives Digital have lit up the Progressive House scene since a debut for Crossfade Sounds in mid-2016. Making his Meanwhile debut on July 2022’s “Meanwhile Excursions, Vol. 2”, in partnership with GMJ on “Negev”, Golan Zocher now returns with another striking collaboration. “Zoom Out” is a beautifully mined progressive house gem that bristles with pounding kick and driving bassline zeal. A mesmeric groove rolls relentlessly forward as subtle percussive touches allow the track to build with ease. Evolving over its near 8-minute timeframe a series of interconnected melodies weave a magical tapestry where pads and subtle motifs cascade over each other in seamless fashion. A breakdown pause then allows for the development of melodic sequences to take centre stage in the second half to create a stunning and multi-layered track.

Jamie Stevens reputation within the electronic music industry is second to none. An artist with a career stretching back over two decades, his solo work has graced the finest labels including Bedrock, Balance Music and Selador. June 2022’s 3-track “Circles” EP marked a Meanwhile high point, followed by October 2023’s twin-track “Mad Bells / Kanlan”. Remixed by Navar in April 2023, Jamie now returns the favour with a typically inventive and dynamic interpretation that takes “Zoom Out” to soaring new heights. Via intelligent manipulation of track components, the Australian has created a pounding dancefloor epic that hypnotises through its sustained and rolling bassline. A subtle grooved rhythm plays atop with intricate placement of percussive sounds while familiar melodic elements flow freely around the rhythm and bass anchor. Adding a Vangelis-esque synth phrase at the stripped back mid-point offers a beguiling and fluid aura to proceedings as the remix picks up the dancefloor pace once more in another hugely impressive Jamie Stevens production.

Traversing a wide and varied soundscape, Navar & Golan Zocher have created a brilliant snapshot with “Zoom Out”, superbly aided by the peerless Jamie Stevens.

We at Dreaming Awake are so pleased to welcome back QuiQui to the label with his incredible acid techno/house beauty "Let There Be Light"! The 303, deep groove and familiar vocal will take people back to the golden days of acid house, but with that modern production we all love! On remix duties we welcome back one of the most globally recognized top producers on the planet, Jamie Stevens! Oh boy did he deliver yet another totally unique and seriously killer remix with his Acid Test Remix!!! Think old school Hardfloor 303 vibes, but only how Mr. Stevens can do best! WOW! Label boss Treavor Moontribe's remix rounds out the release with more of an edit than a remix, simply taking the original track in a slightly different direction, more stripped down and driving!

As Circulation, Paul Davis has found himself at the leading edge of underground dance music for over 25 years. Initially, with former production partner Matt Jackson, Circulation was responsible for a string of high-profile releases for the likes of Bedrock, Selador and Hooj Choons with performances at Fabric (London), Creamfields (Argentina) and Sónar (Barcelona). Now making his Particles debut, "Mistinguette" is an elegantly constructed melodic gem that lilts gently across its near 7-minute timeframe with a clicking / popping top-line and sub-bass groove. Sumptuous pads and liberally scattered effects add to the luxurious canopy of sound before an ethereal vocal line opens up the breakdown to spine-tingling effect. Picking up the rhythmic poise again in the second half combined with melodic charm and vocal phrasing, the track is a magical debut offering.

Jamie Stevens has been a regular contributor to Proton labels over a star-studded career stretching back more than two decades first through work with the ARIA award-winning, Infusion act. Alongside work for Bedrock, microCastle and Meanwhile, 5 remixes for Proton Music have showcased an inimitable Australian talent with reworkings for the likes of Petar Dundov, James Monro and Hrag Mikkel, the latter in December 2023. Now returning to Particles after a May 2020 remix of Sam Hopgood's "Lobster", the Jamie Stevens remix takes "Mistinguette" on a propane-fuelled journey of chunky beats and synth phrasing. A mesmerising motif forms a foundation from the second movement from which a panoply of new phrases, effects, scattered sounds and vocal flourishes evolve into a new interpretation that moves into familiar sounding territory in the second half to share a common theme with Circulation's original.

An artist with a long and successful career both as globally touring DJ, producer and label owner, the UK-born, Brazilian-based James Monro has had a string of hits on both Proton labels. A half-century of releases comes on Proton Music, not least through 3 volumes of the successful "Sanctuary" series, while remixes for Derek Howell, Sapiens & Springa, Roger Martinez and VovaWave sprinkle stardust across the Particles catalogue. Now returning to the label for the first time since 2019, the James Monro remix of "Mistinguette" is a typically powerful and driving number that takes the core melodic themes of the original and transforms them into a club-friendly banger. A chest-thumping kick, ticking hi-hat groove and rousing glissando bassline sequence provide the backdrop, while a swathe of new melodies entwine easily with familiar chord progressions and sweeping pads. The result is another stunning James Monro interpretation.

Singing from the rooftops with "Mistinguette", Circulation debuts on Particles with remixes from Jamie Stevens and James Monro.

► Release Info:

SONAS and Mark Zowie join the family with the delightful ‘Accordance’. Zoo Brazil and Jamie Stevens add their unique visions on remix duties. 

Live performer, DJ and producer John Ricketts began the SONAS alias in 2019 which combines elements of ambient electronica and dance floor sounds to create a warm, inviting amalgam; part delicate pads and petty arps, part punchy techno low end grunt. His ‘emotional and reflective’ take has already seen him sign with DRUM and Play This!. Teaming up with John, is long time friend Mark Zowie. Mark has had a glittering career in the music industry as Lil Devious, Burn The Negative, We Take Polaroids and Novablood and has music signed to a bewildering array of labels including Defected, Southern Fried and Under No Illusion. We are honoured to have them. 

In original form, ‘Accordance’ is a delicate song-based club-orientated single. Opening with sparse percussion and a dirty reese bass, Mark’s thought-provoking vocals take centre stage. After a brief break (watch the floor freak out as it reaches climax!) the final section powers forward with orchestral pads, delicate arps and an ear worm vocal. This is end of the night territory! 

Given such a huge original, we have enlisted two big guns for their incredible remix work. Jaime has been on the label before so it was a no brainer to ask him back and his remix really draws out the potential the melodics which underpinning it with a solid low end. Zoo Brazil also delivers, opting to strip the track back for a dubbier, nuanced vibe.

Following the hugely successful release of their 'Symbiosis' debut album, on which Dutch duo Callecat took us on a blissed-out journey, collaborating with some of the best producers in progressive house music, it's now time for the remixes.

We're happy to announce that every single song of the LP will be remixed, and- like with the collaborating artists on the album- the people they've invited to rework the songs are nothing short of spectacular!

Introducing part 1 where we see progressive house super star Hernan Cattaneo team up with Australia based power house Jamie Stevens, giving their magic touch to 'Beyond Perceptions', a joined effort between Callecat and Nick Varon. And what to think of rising star Digital Mess who reworks 'Unified Formulas', originally a collaboration with Meeting Molly.

Take into account that this is only the beginning of a whole series of remix EPs to be released in the upcoming months and you'll realize that the whole 'Symbiosis' project you are witnessing is progressive house music history in the making!

Barry Jamieson, Tristan Case and Tom Barlow link up for a global collaboration on ‘Clinken Haus’, ably supported on remix duties by Australian supermo, Jamie Stevens. 

US-based Barry Jamieson made his name as half of Evolution and co-owner of Fluid Records back in the ‘90s. Now an accomplished studio engineer, he has a Grammy nomination and top 40 hits under his belt as well as a storied history in the underground. 

Sydney-based, Return to Rio resident and producer Tristan Case has had quite a journey since relocating from the UK as a jobbing musician and self-taught DJ. Together with fellow Brit, Tom Barlow, the pair launched their production careers with ‘Dorse’ on onedotsixtwo. They have gone on to have exciting solo careers signing music to a number of high profile imprints. 

In original form ‘Clinken Haus’ opens in warm effervesence. Twinkly arps and a sparse percussive framework greets you like a familiar friend before veering off into the wonky and weird. Ebbing and flowing without ever really needing a break, the audio story it tells is one of joyous abandon and carefree enjoyment. A work of art. On remix duties, leading light and Australian prog pioneer, Jamie Stevens drops a detailed and imaginative breaks reimagiation choc full of e-moments and nuanced emotion.
