A Particles regular and an artist with a growing portfolio of original and remix production material to his name, Chihaka is a welcome returnee to the label with his "Hupenyu" EP. Able to point to a clutch of tracks for the likes of The Purr, One Of A Kind and Balkan Connection South America, Michael Chihaka hit the ground running on Particles with his "Nyarara" and "Pinda" EPs in October 2019 and May 2020.

The title track is a glorious progressive house offering that glitters with filtered arp and sympathetic bassline sequence. Building delicately through white-noise swells and analogue synth phrases, a beautiful piano sequence of piano chords lights up the breakdown before a glissando bass repeats the underlying motif in a sublime musical layer. Anchored by strong beat and hi-hat groove, the result is an outstanding piece of original music from the Chihaka studio.

Another growing force in the world of underground dance music, Imran Khan has seen his stock rise steadily for the likes of Stellar Fountain, Mango Alley and GMJ and Matter's Meanwhile imprint. Finding a home on Proton Music with a series of original EP's including 2019's "Organik" and "Sunsweat", remixes for Dmitry Molosh, Michael A and Petar Dundov have sparked another side to the UK producer's arsenal. 2018's "Eva" and remixes for the likes of Kamilo Sanclemente, Hot TuneiK and Savvas, represent a strong body of Particles work as Imran Khan now reworks "Hupenyu" with typical aplomb. Resonant in huge seismic bassline, elements from Chinaka's original gradually filter into sonic range as the track progresses through its eight-minute voyage. Familiar chords and pads seep through, whilst a wave of original production material shines across the track with immaculate production technique. A heavy kick and percussive flow add to the powerful groove in another flawless offering from Imran Khan.

From the Chilean capital, Jesus Gonzalez is a relative newcomer to the deep and progressive house seen with his OHMZ production moniker. Catching attention with original work for Flug Lab, The Purr, RYNTH and a December 2021 remix of B.A.X. for 3rd Avenue, the Santiago resident makes his Particles debut with a spellbinding reworking of "Kupisa", first heard on Chihaka's "Ndarasika" EP in August 2021. OHMZ has thus created a beautiful organic house interpretation through his "Pacific Gardens Remix" that draws on the themes resonating through the original, whilst creating a new and innovative piece of music redolent in soft piano sequences, free-flowing synth passages and emotive chord patterns. Backed by a subtle breakbeat rhythm and clicking, popping percussive groove, OHMZ has provided a wonderful addition to the EP.

Through "Hupenyu", Chihaka has one again captured the attention, supported by remixes from Imran Khan and OHMZ.

Herinneringen –  the story behind this track is being found in existence of the sweet spacey pad, it got me thinking back on the memories I had with Hernan on his annual Woodstock’69 parties in Bloemendaal aan Zee. So during the Covidius era it got me thinking back about the moments.. these missing times. Such a beautiful location here in Holland.

Opening 2022's final quarter, Cid Inc's Replug Records welcomes Mike Griego back to the label for a new EP. Based in Buenos Aires, the Argentinean DJ and producer has carved out a unique place in the electronic underground. His exacting design, addictive grooves and avant-garde melodies have made for a transcendent sound that continues to unify dancefloors around the world. With a career that now approaches fifteen years and one hundred discography credits, Mike would have to be considered one of progressive music's elite artists. A meticulous discography reflects his choosy nature; with Replug and Sudbeat serving as the primary landing spots for his musical output. With 2021 being highlighted by his most recent Replug vehicle ‘Dysbiosis', the Argentine made a much-lauded return to Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music earlier this year with ‘Foreign Affair', before laying down impressive renditions of Kasper Koman's ‘In Circles' and Dmitry Molosh & Navar's ‘Foreign Wonders', released c/o Juicebox Music and Proportion respectively. Now, continuing what has been a great year, Mike returns to Replug with a three-track showcase entitled ‘Flying Doves'. 

As a favourite of Replug label boss Cid Inc across the summer season, EP opener and title selection ‘Flying Doves' finds Mike at his creative best. Shot in high-definition and full of detail and drive, it's an emotive voyage where the Buenos Aires resident flexes his freethinking muscles and lands comfortably in-between groove-centric science and hopeful musicality. The inevitable zenith of this peak-time excursion mounts with nostalgic melodies and balmy harmonics converging, achieving a rich, colourful timbre over a bed of pulsating beats and fascinating percussion arrangements. 

More enigmatic yet is the EPs second selection 'Brothi'', a creation which finds Mike etching towards a darker monochrome. Plush kick drums and voluptuous bass stabs lead to electrified iterations of new age sonics. Cleverly cadenced coactions underpin a fascinating blend of pyrotechnic effects, before segueing into the main break where metallic melodies and effervescent rides unite, setting the course for a finale of rebounding rhythms and surreal sonic aesthetics.

The third and final selection 'Blood Echo' further solidifies Mike's transcendent abilities. Possessing a dramatic undercurrent, the Argentine works hypnotizing structures over punchy kick drums and detailed percussion, creating waves of locomotive meditation. Its thrilling pulse has become a production hallmark for Mike, one where inventive drum patterns, mesmerizing rhythms and quixotic effects carry the storyboard onwards to a thunderous dance floor awakening. A fitting conclusion to a fresh three-track odyssey, one where Mike carefully balances technique and musicality, thus continuing his tenure as one of Argentina's most beloved progressive house producers.

Label artist Khen has done a special 'Bronzed Re-Edit' of his classic 'Sunflakes' track. As a thank you for the great support we received on his 'Pollen Spreader EP' we're offering this as a Free Download. The Original version proved to be one of the biggest tracks of the summer season, earning regular play from Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J and Guy Mantzur. Eventually released in mid November, the track enjoyed immense success, reaching #13 in Beatport's Progressive House tracks chart (almost unheard of for an underground record). Now five weeks later it still sits in the top 50 and Khen has given it new life with his aptly coined 'Bronzed Re-Edit'. With an indistinct take on the melodies  and new found atmospheric focus, the much loved Israeli artist has crafted another exquisite dance floor gem. It's unique combination of warm ambience and rugged grooves produce a tranquil yet raw beauty. Certainly one we're proud to the put the microCastle stamp on and we hope you enjoy it as well, have a safe and happy holiday season. Much love from Khen and microCastle.  See you next year. :)

Hailing from the Netherlands, building a relationship with music through an array of equipment where he developed the hallmark of his analogue/digital sound.
Never one to stick to a particular stylistic blueprint, Navar effortlessly melds elements of minimal, techno, progressive and electronica. He has continually impressed since a debut on Klopfgeist imprint in 2010, building a highly impressive discography of productions for Lost & Found, microCastle, Replug, Balance Music, Sound Avenue, Proton, Higher States and more. 
His music routinely earns the praise of Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Guy Mantzur, Sasha, Henry Saiz and a host of other respected industry figures.

Electronic music luminaries Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo, Chaim, 16 Bit Lolitas, Boris Werner and YokoO chose to remix the Dutch artist's creations, all of which received critical and commercial acclaim. Always looking to further his creative avenues, Navar collaborates with like minded musicians when the synergy is right. Being locked away in the studio in the early days, have led him to heights that he never could have imagined at the time. Navar set out to carve his own unique path in the world of electronic music.
Inspiration for the Dutch artist comes from many facets and moments in life, as he describes “The inspiration comes from the escape I create when I make music. Every project is a new journey and doors to different sonic avenues open with each one. I step away from reality and enter a world of imagination, surrealism and (yet to discover) forgotten dreams". 
It's no accident that Navar's contemporaries remark on the soulful qualities in his music. His inner feelings have helped create a uniquely deep and recognizable sound, as he states “My music is a reflection of my feelings, it comes from a genuine place that I want people to connect with. I feel comfortable expressing myself through music”.
Navar's emotive creations have already cast lasting memories for electronic music fans across the globe. As he goes forward in his journey through sound his passion continues to grow and there's no telling how far his creative talents will reach.
