PROGRESSIVE en ESPAÑA 084 - Pole Folder 🇧🇪

A staple of the US Midwest progressive scene, Shell Robinson spins immersive, extended sets that skillfully balance light and dark. Through her local residencies, she’s shared the stage with icons like Paul Oakenfold, John Digweed, and Behrouz. Now focusing her energy on production, she’s released on respected labels such as UV Noir, Juicebox Music, and Schallmauer. She also hosts the HouseCall podcast, a series in which she dives deep into the lives and music of fellow artists.

On this Balance Selections mix, Shell crafts a two-hour journey that feels light in intent yet delivers a deep emotive punch. Featuring tracks from D-Nox, Stereo Underground, Noel Sanger and more, this melodic and moody mix never strays too far into darkness, striking a beautiful balance between soul and energy.

With a trailblazing career spanning decades, Quivver has carved out a presence that’s unmistakably his own. Last year’s Balance Series compilation (alongside Dave Seaman) showcased an artist that is only getting more refined and compelling with each passing release.

Quivver will perfom at Balance Croatia this coming August.

BALANCE CROATIA

We are lucky to play the two best clubs in the world every month: Stereo and Stereobar Montreal 🪩

We decided to start sharing all our sets from these wonderful nights: Résidence Series. 🎶

So, let's start with this set from last Saturday. Stereobar was jammed-pack, wow! More than 500 tickets sold during the night.

The party was furious! 

Enjoy 🙏

Résidence 004 - Hicky & Kalo @ Stereobar Montreal (All Night Long, April 26th, 2025)

By the early 2000s, when much of the electronic world was chasing trance highs and vocal hooks, Moshic Shlomi—known mononymously as Moshic—was charting a darker path. His take on progressive house was not just brooding; it was cinematic, steeped in tension, mood, and layered melancholy.

Releasing early work as Argonout, Moshic made his mark with tracks on Cyber Records and appearances on compilations from Global Underground to In Search of Sunrise, showcasing a sound both atmospheric and emotionally rich. Now leading his own label, Contrast, he continues to explore the space between light and shadow, with recent productions finding a home on imprints like Bedrock and Bonzai Progressive.

His Balance Selections mix delivers on the promise of the label’s name: a carefully curated journey of contrasts that never loses its introspective core. Featuring tracks from N-TCHBL, Stereo Underground, and Moshic himself, the mix isn’t afraid to drift into the melancholic edges of progressive house.

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.
