Franky Wah makes his debut with a suitably epic original and teams up with El Maestro for an interesting collaboration project.

Very much a product of the modern age, where artists are in fact multitasking entrepreneurs, Franky has shot into the  music scene with savvy business practice and the musical skills to back it up. Setting up his own brand, SHÉN; a label, events company and clothing offshoot, has given him a base to get exposure and thus, release on a cross section of labels from seminal underground strongholds, Anjunabeat to Bedrock to LNOE to Major labels like EMI and Polydor.

His opener, a solo effort, has been collecting massive reactions from the clubs - as certified by the very own Hernan Cattaneo, eager supporter of the track. ‘Riptide’ does exactly that from the off. Groovy, understated but quietly deadly, once the vibe grabs hold, it’s almost impossible to resist. Developing over the first section, slowly at first, but then increasingly quickly as the tension builds, Franky drops a killer track that will pique everyone's interest.

For their collaboration, Franky and Hernan present the uptempo monster, Groovejet. Pulsating, energetic and just a little dark, this is everything you’d expect from the master at peak time with the whole club in the palm of his hand. This years Scorchio for sure!

A pairing of considerable experience, Luke Brancaccio & Gai Barone return to Proton Music with a brand-new original track in the shape of "Got to Get it Started", alongside remixes from Michael A and Orsen.

A powerful duo with a rich combined history stretching back more than 15 years, the UK / Italian axis has accounted for some of the finest underground house releases. First coming together in August 2021, their "Lust Stop / Letter to Her" EP shone a bright light on Guy J's esteemed Lost & Found imprint before going on to feature on the likes of Selador, Renaissance Music and Sudbeat Music. A 2023 remix of Verche for Particles was then followed by a debut Proton Music remix of dernis the kid's "Maybe feat. Clara Jo" a year later. Now returning with a debut original offering, "Got to Get it Started" is a powerful progressive gem that hits hard with thumping beat and ticking hats before a smooth female vocal proclaims the track title. A cast of hypnotic melodic elements builds with filtered intensity with a pulsating arp and hefty bassline to keep the energy high. A glorious piano phrase supplies old school vibes at the breakdown while cadenced vocal snippets evolve with the hypnotic array of pitched synth arps in the second half to reach a stirring crescendo.

Michael A has been at the vanguard of the Proton Music sound since his 2017 "Bright Hope" EP. Over 60 production credits later and the Belarusian has seen an ever-evolving sound feature on the likes of "Aura Tears", "Geometria" and 5 incarnations of the popular "Fantasy" series. Remixes for such iconic figures as Pole Folder, Dousk and Trilucid have also contributed to a sought-after production talent as Michael A reworks "Got to Get it Started" in typically majestic fashion. A huge thumping beat opens proceedings while a syncopated bassline echoes Luke Brancaccio and Gai Barone's original. An immaculate percussive groove supplies dancefloor sensibility as the remix builds seamlessly. Pausing for breath at the breakdown, familiar melodies from "Got to Get it Started" shine through as they intertwine with Michael's original production material. The result is a seething, progressive gem that is another commanding reminder of Michael A's talent and passion.

Legendary figure, Dan Orsen, has been at the progressive scene's top table for over a decade. Responsible for some of the finest modern underground house tracks, the UK-born, Austrian-based artist has been a regular on Sudbeat Music, Perspectives Digital and a raft of releases on Cid Inc.'s Replug where he heads up A&R. Nine remixes for Proton Music since a 2016 reworking of Mondkrater has seen Orsen interpret the likes of Roger Martinez, Dimuth K and GMJ & Matter, while a 10th Proton Music remix now sees him produce a driving mesmerising interpretation. Playing handsome tribute to the sonic overtones and vocal cadence of the original, Orsen transforms it into a spiky, coruscating, acid-powered affair that gradually builds in energy using the melodic crescendo of the original to magnificent effect in the second half. The result is a dramatic and impressive departure from the traditional Orsen sound.

A dancefloor classic, "Got to Get it Started" sees Luke Brancaccio and Gai Barone jumpstart their Proton Music sound with glittering remixes from Michael A and Orsen.

Every once in a while, the stars align in such a way that a release feels less like a label milestone and more like a moment in time. A rare convergence of artistry and legacy. For our 25th release, we’re beyond proud to present a collaboration that feels almost surreal: Glenn Morrison and Gai Barone on one record.
These are two artists whose music has shaped our lives, stirred our souls, and defined entire eras of melodic and progressive music. Their individual contributions to the scene are nothing short of legendary. It’s something we’ve dreamt about, quietly hoped for, and now finally get to share with the world.
And it doesn’t stop here. Du More, who’s beautiful melodies we know from previous releases on MelodicLab Records, teamed up with label owner Sagou, to deliver a remix that feels like a vivid dream of a memory. It has the same colors, but in a different light. The original emotions are still there, but the context has shifted. The soul of the track wears a different outfit, but you still recognize it, deep down.
This isn’t just a release. It’s a celebration. A celebration of 25 journeys around the sun for our label, of four artists pushing creative boundaries together, and of what’s possible when vision and passion intersect.
We invite you to listen, not just with your ears, but with the kind of wide-eyed wonder this moment deserves.

PREMIERE: Glenn Morrison, Gai Barone - Waves [MelodicLab Records]

Cornucopia returns to Guy J’s label Early Morning with a remix of Roots, the iconic track by Chopstick & Johnjon featuring Signaljacker. This release brings together some of electronic music’s most unique voices, merging legacy with forward momentum.

Early Morning, established as a platform for creative reinvention in electronic music, continues to evolve with a release that both reflects and expands its core vision. Cornucopia’s interpretation of Roots is an immersive journey spanning over seven minutes, maintaining the emotional heart of the original while reimagining its sonic landscape with precision and depth.

The remix preserves the enduring elements of Roots: Signaljacker’s sensual vocal, the melancholic atmosphere, and a thematic continuity that resonates deeply. Yet Cornucopia reframes these within a refined, futuristic aesthetic that feels both intimate and expansive.

This release is a subtle yet powerful redefinition of a classic, crafted by an artist who bridges heritage and innovation.

► Release Info:

Roku opens the summer season by welcoming Andre Moret to the label for his debut EP. As one of Brazil's most highly regarded progressive house artists, Andre Moret has achieved many successes across his seven year career. World class DJs Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren have been regular supporters, while his inimitable productions have found a home on Mango Alley, Plattenbank, The Soundgarden and Warung Recordings, amongst others. Also an accomplished DJ, the Campinas resident has taken his impeccable taste and smooth programming skills around the world, performing in Argentina, Colombia and Uruguay, while also being a fixture of Brazil’s vibrant nightlife, through his highly regarded gigs at D.EDGE, Club 88, Clash Club, Gate22 and more. Now, fresh off a well-received EP for Clubsonica, Andre adds roku to his resume with a two-track showcase entitled ‘Mind Guides’. 

Beginning with ‘Mind Guides’, Andre showcases a groovy hypnotic approach which sets the tone for the EP. Full of alluring textures and fresh design qualities, the Brazilian talent expertly blends warm kick drums and voluptuous grooves, with rolling rhythms, haunted vocal choirs and wavy arpeggiated sequences, for a captivating path into the break. Further revealing his creative attitude across the interlude, it’s a short but tense build which emerges to reveal submerged chord stabs and a powerful drop, before vocal narrative returns for an engaging finale. 

The companion piece ‘Night of Falling Lights’ lands with a decidedly deeper approach, as Andre flexes his rhythmic acumen across the seven minute piece. Rolling basslines provide the anchor for glowing synth phrasing and spirited sonics to highlight a dreamy top line, continually evolving across the main break, as modulation peaks and the groove re-engages to create a club energy that is both stirring and confident.

PREMIERE: Juan Peinado - A Dream Of Another Life [MELATUNE005]

"Lost & Found" label will be launched  23rd July 2012. This exciting new platform will allow Guy to release not only his own critically lauded, sensual, hypnotic take on house music, deeply textured techno and wondrous ambient material, but also give him the freedom to sign and nurture new talent and hidden gems from established artists. 

Since Guy J’s work is always touched with a magic and emotion that few rival, this new project is a very exciting prospect indeed. Lost & Found will operate as a sub-label of Bedrock, John Digweed’s influential and long-established mothership, which will mean that there will be a wealth of experience and knowledge behind the scene
