---------
A relative newcomer to the progressive house scene, Mike Isai’s nascent production career has already seen a debut on the Nick Warren led, Hope Recordings, via September 2020’s “Pillars to Butterflies” EP. A March 2021 reworking of Shanil Alox’s “Algorithm” for Droid9 illustrated Isai’s remix capabilities, as the US star now debuts on Meanwhile with his twin-tracker.

Opening proceedings, “Home” is a dark and sultry piece that pulsates hypnotically through its near 9-minute voyage with a panoply of textured layers and white-noise effects. Quickly hitting its stride, a pounding kick is accompanied by an immaculately syncopated synth motif that provides the basis for a counterpoint phrase to sit elegantly on top in glittering repetitive pattern. Reaching a rousing filtered denouement at the mid-point, “Home” drops back into a familiar arrangement as all elements combine to impressive effect in the third movement.

Continuing the powerful rhythmic framework of its partner, “87 North” immediately impresses with its 16th note bassline and seismic kick. Another syncopated synth loop provides an imposing trademark production technique as haunting melodies drift over the mid-range, drenched in reverb and white-noise washes. Coruscating pads add further intrigue as the 7-minute piece evolves, coming fully to the fore in a ‘wall of sound’ breakdown, before the second half picks up the pace again with percussive intensity. The juxtaposition of meandering melodic threads and bassline urgency thus creates an impressively woven dynamism.

Another new artist to grace Meanwhile finds Arizona based Brenden LaBonte creating a potent wave of success with his Forerunners moniker. With over a double century of production credits to his name for some of the finest modern dance imprints, Sudbeat Music, Anjunadeep, and Black Hole have all played host to the US artist’s emotive soundscapes. Reworking “Home”, the Forerunners remix is chock full of the trademark soundscapes that characterise LaBonte’s work, with whispering melodies floating atop a powerful beat and ticking hi-hat groove. A relentless bassline sequence adds weight and poise over the 8-minute offering as subtle variations on Mike Isai’s original make their presence felt. Pausing for breath at a spine-tingling mid-point, cadenced bass groove and subtle melodic prowess hit the heights in the latter stages.

New music sees Mike Isai guided home by his north star, accompanied by a shining remix from Forerunners.

Lyrics:
Paradox

"Let me tell you something boy
the world is a paradox
full of love but filled with hate
you owe nothing to anyone, remember it
choices are yours, no accountability to others
your free will is strong as you can choose what you want for you
its time to take your responsabilites, here and now
your free will is power, you can fuel it with anger
but as rain is falling, the karma wheel refers to your actions
the world is a paradox
we must live this duality entirely
to understand fully the scope of our actions

if you really want to see love in this fucking world
beware your actions, beware what you say
spread love, even when you meet wrath
understand the difference between suffering and pain
suffering is not inevitable
pain helps to learn"

`"Sweet precious thing that is life
strong bravery of the sprout
powerful force of nature
the thirst for life
little sweetness 
little sweetness that grows through the dark
dark is part of light
life is kinda lark
mistakes are excusable
if you don't become accusable
neither abusable
oh please through the darkness
keep your sweetness
life is looking for light
deeply rooted in the dark
seeds are everywhere
fruits depend on the care
you have given
Oh little sweetness that grows through obstacles
could look like hope
but it's pure confidence
Cauz life knows how it goes"

Lyrics:
Schizophrenia in my mind
my spirit is splitted
two entities
the weak and the strong
the one that say all is screwed up, the weak
the one that say we can change this, the strong
the weak and the strong
always fighting for nothing
I feel the change coming
I feel the pain hitting
it's my pain but its yours too,
it's your pain but it's mine too
it's wildlife death sentence
im crying, im laughing
never knowing what is real
but I know what I feel for real
I feel the change coming
I feel the pain that gonna hit
the strong hit the weak
cauz he's sick and think like a dick
the weak is the strong
two faces of the same, myself
two faces of the self, the same

I should not worry that's just duality
I can build my reality
it may not always be how I want it to be
I will always work this way
I should not worry
I take it easy

My biggest heartbreak is my disconnection to others
cauz deeply I know, others help me to grow

Others help me to grow
to face the truth of my behavior
but we're all in the same show
and in the end there is no savior
oh, I don't know, who is the biggest foe
cauz everyone suffers on his own
oh human....
complicated relations fed by reckless bondings
and deeply hurting passions that ends up annoying
I don't know anymore how to deal with others
I don't know anymore if I'm still able to communicate

Oh, I don't need to put words on it but everyone does so how do we do
when we bring the mental in feelings it's destructive
and it seems we need to define things, to label it to get, to understand it
I don't how to deal with it

I wish it was easy
I would not be clumzy
all this makes me dizzy

and I end up socially lazy
and I hate it

Thanks to the guys at the "RadFish" Malibu Surf Shop; Tuna-Can Tony, Shady Dave, Swingin Don Johnston, and the 'Real' David Float for the laughs and for what was supposed to have been a surf lesson at Zuma Beach which due to bad weather & shark sitings turned into an improv swing jam session in the back of their shop after hours which became the inspiration and Lo-Fi recording snippets for this track. Love you guys...!!!!
