Maze 28 pres Futura City - Night Creatures (McKeown & Bassiray Breaks Remix)

McKeown & Bassiray - Arc Flash / Comet [Zero Tolerance]

It is an honour for us to be included on the 333 Sessions Podcast.  We spent many months working on this extended mix, and the entire process was extremely rewarding.  After shortlisting a large set of records, we set out to cohesively piece together just over 3.5 hours of deep hypnotic sounds that we love so much.  The mix starts off with deep slow house, and then extends to Progressive House and Progressive Breaks. It contains a lot of records we specifically wrote for the mix, both individually, as “Mckeown & Bassiray” and  “Depth Institute” production outfits, as well as unreleased and forthcoming releases on our much beloved Zero Tolerance label. 

Many thanks to our friends who provided us with records, and those from around the world who share our mutual love and understanding of progressive sounds that sit within a dark and moody aesthetic

We hope you enjoy the ride

Written in 2020, this is a slow moving emotional piece that is underpinned by a haunting vocal along with intertwined intricacies just like Stars themselves.

Vocal: Resonance No.3 in F by Úyanga Bold

"The cosmos is within us. We are made of star-stuff. We are a way for the universe to know itself."

Great for closing out sets or mixes :)

We are proud to announce our next Zero Tolerance release.
After a string of remix duties McKeown & Bassiray return to their home ground Zero Tolerance with the "Behaved EP" featuring two new original records "An Introduction" and "Flat Surfaces".
"An Introduction" was premiered on Depth Institute's Balance Selections mix last year and has been a highly requested release on the label. The opening record navigates a cinematic progressive mood, emphasizing subtleties with a driving tribal crescendo that is nuanced and heavily detailed.
"Flat Surfaces" draws inspiration from dubbier territory, with submerged percussion and a hypnotic arrangement that gradually envelopes and marinates over time. This twisted story is elevated by a level of familiarity for the ZT faithful whilst offering a forward-looking perspective, acknowledging the label's evolving trajectory.

McKeown & Bassiray - Frisky Artist Of The Week Mix 2024

Melbourne producers McKeown & Bassiray provide a deep progressive interpretation of Diego Moreira's "Feeling" for Sound Avenue. Bathed in darkness, this record is heavily nuanced with surgical detail and overriding tension that peaks in a tribal drum orientated crescendo that has its focus firmly based on the dance floor. 

Written by Stuart McKeown & Darius Bassiray.

Diego Moreira - Feeling (McKeown & Bassiray Dark Drums Remix) [Sound Avenue]

🥷 McKeown & Bassiray exclusive 65-track playlist 🥷
https://spoti.fi/3YtN5Lo

Deep. Dark. Progressive. Those three adjectives captured a moment in electronic music that rippled through the scene like a sonic ideology. The sound emerged at the turn of the millennium and embraced its name with laser-like precision: it sure was deep, undoubtedly dark, and undeniably progressive.  

It’s a moment that Stuart McKeown and Darius Bassiray know all too well. As part of Melbourne’s Zero Tolerance crew and two-thirds of Depth Institute, they champion its contemporary incarnation, releasing on labels like Mango Alley, Sound Avenue, and, of course, Zero Tolerance.  

They also lived through it, making them perfectly positioned to pontificate on the scene. Read the full feature on the Balance Music website, where we delve into this early 2000s strain of progressive. To supplement that article, they crafted a two-hour showcase of their favorite classic and contemporary genre moments. Featuring tracks from John Creamer & Stéphane K, Chab, Diego Moreira, Analog Jungs, and more, this is an excellent entry point for anyone looking to explore this audio world.
