Forty Cats BIO:

Christina Gavrilova aka Forty Cats is one of the few Russian female artists whose tracks have garnered impressive support on the world stage. The first big success arrived soon after the release of the "Fluency Rate" track on the well-recognized Ukrainian progressive artist 8Kays' label; the track has collected over 720,000 streams on Spotify alone since then. But the real breakthrough in Christina's musical career came in August 2019 when her debut EP "Highway" was launched on This Never Happened, Lane 8's personal label. It was followed by the official Forty Cats remix of one of the tracks from Lane 8's album, and soon after — another 3-track EP "Elastic Sun" at the end of 2020.
2021 became the most productive year for Forty Cats, marking a new creative milestone for the artist: making appearances on the top labels in the melodic and progressive house genres. Over the past year, her releases have been released on labels such as Sudbeat (Hernan Cattaneo's imprint)б Mango Alley, Manual Music, Meanwhile, Kindisch (Get Physical sublabel)б Monstercat Silk and more. The support of the Forty Cats tracks includes such names as Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Nick Muir, D-Nox, GMJ & Matter, Eelke Kleij, Above & Beyond, Lane 8, Yotto, Gabriel & Dresden, Sultan+Shepard, Gai Barone, John 00 Fleming, Paul Oakenfold, Jaytech, Braxton, Cid Inc and many more.

Cortona, the alias of UK/Italy-based producer Enzo, channels decades of eclectic listening into atmospheric, groove-heavy club tracks. A formative night seeing Primal Scream with Andrew Weatherall lit the fuse for his dive into electronic music, eventually leading him to become a founding proponent of Plastic Fantastic—one of the scene’s most influential progressive house labels. That legacy pulses through Cortona’s work, with his recent releases finding homes on imprints ranging from Bedrock to Music To Die For.

On this Balance Selections, Cortona balances analog nostalgia with modern fluidity. Featuring tracks from Mike Rish, Jamie Stevens, and Hermanez, this nearly three-hour mix leans into nocturnal energy to deliver a vintage progressive punch, weaving deep builds and emotive peaks into a seamless late-night journey.

TRACKLIST & INTERVIEW

A hypnotic blend of deep-house warmth and late-night melancholy. Until It Was Gone drifts between pulsing basslines, airy reverb-drenched vocals, and smooth melodic synths — a reflective journey through love, loss, and realization.
With subtle grooves and ethereal vocal chops repeating “gone… gone… gone…”, the track builds and releases like fading memories — balancing introspection with dancefloor flow. Perfect for those moments when night turns to morning, and the weight of what’s been lost lingers in the air.
🔊 Highlights:
Gentle atmospheric intro → emotional vocal hook
Deep, rolling drops with layered synth textures
Ambient breakdowns that melt into soothing grooves
A haunting refrain: “I didn’t realize what I had… until it was gone.”
For fans of chill deep-house, emotional electronica, and music that lingers long after it fades.

Gone, Gone, Gone

Dipped in Sugar (DecentDaze Remix)

Kontaktees — "At the Moment / Moment in Love"
In their new EP, Kontaktees continue to explore the fragile edges of human perception and emotional reality. Hiding behind masks, they shift the listener’s focus away from themselves and toward the feelings that linger within us all.

"At the Moment" is a sonic meditation on the everyday. Through delicate melodic textures and subtle rhythms, Kontaktees invite us to see fleeting moments not as insignificant details, but as the foundation of inner balance—where each small thing matters, and every moment holds emotional weight.

"Moment in Love" reveals the brighter side of emotion: unconditional love. Whether it’s directed at a child, a friend, a parent, or oneself, this track radiates warmth and reminds us that true love needs no justification—it simply exists.

This release is an invitation to slow down, listen closely, and rediscover the feelings that often hide in the silence between words.
