D.J. MacIntyre's SLC-6 Music opens the spring season by welcoming Ruben Karapetyan back to the label for his debut single. Following a ten-year hiatus, the Armenian-born, USA-based artist made a triumphant return to electronic music in 2020 with a series of the releases via Mango Alley, Movement Recordings and Univak. On the strength of his fresh, progressive sound Ruben quickly earned praise from the genre's trendsetters Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, while also becoming a regular in Beatport's competitive sales charts. Having made his first appearance on SLC-6 Music last year with a remix of K Loveski's 'Renzzo', the Los Angeles resident now returns to the label for his first single entitled 'Meteorite', alongside a remix from Jerome Isma-Ae. The Original Mix finds Ruben operating at the peak of his creative powers and aiming squarely for the dance floor. Elasticated synths, delicate chord stabs, percolating effects layers, charged beats and mountainous basslines form the solid structure of the track. An emotive break, complete with thought-provoking vocal samples, puts your senses on high for an exhilarating finale.

Making his label debut, and providing the lone interpretation, is progressive music icon Jerome Isma-Ae. Having remixed the likes of Faithless, Hybrid, Paul Van Dyk and Way Out West, the German artist now overhauls Ruben's 'Meteorite' in fine fashion. Beginning with a subdued pulse, Jerome masterfully builds the energy into an epic main-room stormer. Multi-dimensional stabs, flickering percussive arrangements and deconstructed vocals steal the air, while thunderous grooves and misty tension-filled atmospheres keep attention firmly locked on the dance floor.

After a pair of remixes 7 years apart, Verche now returns with a full debut and his thematic "Riptide" EP. Opening with the 2-part "Metastaze", a robust groove and sustained bassline provide the foundation for cadenced stabs and trilling synth motif to build alongside a glassy motif in a pulsating club-friendly manner. Part 2 continues the bassline theme of Part 1 as a powerfully sustained lead replaces the more subtle phrasing of its partner track. The result is a gloriously dynamic and dramatic piece. "Riptide" continues the melodic themes of the opener as a powerful groove provides the backdrop for familiar motif and driving force to make their mark. Evolving, vocal chants and white-noise infused pads add real dancefloor purpose. Changing the overall vibe, "Surreal" is typified by a chunky rhythm and syncopated bassline. A flurry of melodic elements and effects-laden pads create a bright sonic landscape as the track rises and falls with ease reaching its denouement at the 6-minute mark. The final original track sees "Northern Lights" continue with a vibrant driving character that builds easily across its 8-minute timeframe where counterpoint and carefully patterned motifs jostle for position. Fully unleashed post-breakdown, a huge kick and pulsing white-noise pads drive the track home with delicate melodies cutting through the mix in repeated phrases.

The combined pair of Luke Brancaccio & Gai Barone needs little introduction. A veteran of more than 20 releases on Bedrock plus work for Platipus and Selador stretching back over 15 years, Brancaccio is an iconic figure. Similarly, Gai Barone's 600 plus production credits for the likes of JOOF, Black Hole, Armada and his own Afterglow imprint, have sealed the Italian's place in dance music's hall of fame. First joining forces on a 2019 remix for Dear Deer, the duo's recent work for Selador, Lost & Found and Renaissance has seen them at the top of their profession. Remixing "Riptide", a chest-thudding kick and ticking percussion provides the foundation for a strongly rhythmic melody to repeat hypnotically throughout in dramatic fashion. Making superb use of the vocal phrasing of Verche's original, the remix blossoms in the second half alongside intelligent use of original components.

On the back of a pair of Particles remixes in 2021, Toronto based, Zoi, saw his talent shining through on reworks for To Ricciardi & Dope (PT) and Jayden Klight. Appearances on Flug Lab, Dream Culture and Traum, over a 5-year career, have showcased a penchant for "complex soundscapes and deep melodies", with Zoi's remix of "Riptide" displaying an array of melodic textures and laidback rhythmic foundation. Making clever use of the Verche's original components, a stripped-back interpretation allows for a floating soundscape to swell gently throughout the 5-minute piece as original production and new motifs enter the fray in the second half. The result is an ingenious and highly original new interpretation.

5 new tracks plus sparkling remixes from Luke Brancaccio, Gai Barone and Zoi find Verche riding a powerful "Riptide".

One of which reached the Beatport top 10 Progressive House Chart and also number 1 in the Beatport Progressive House Hype Chart.
