Proton Pack #184

Today we are happy to share with you Bas Dobbelaer’s interpretation of Far Blue. The Amsterdam based DJ and producer is known for his distinct style, floating between energies with odd signatures and atmospheric sounds. 

With Echoes, Bas Dobbelaer takes you on an introspective journey where shifting rhythms and immersive atmospheres intertwine, creating a very deep contribution to the series.

“With this mix I tried to find the deeper layer of certain tracks and not limit myself too much with different tempo’s ranges. If it fits the vibe and helping the flow, it’s probably the right spot.

Creating a mix is an interesting creative outlet to discovering new possibilities and refining the art of setting the tone. Balancing on that thin line with endless opportunities, reflects the perfect capture of the feeling and learnings of today.”

Will You, founder of Oleeva Records and Bristol-based producer and DJ, is one of the few UK artists carving out something distinct within this space of house music. Is It 2 Late is a standout from his latest EP on Berlin-based Stólar, featuring top-tier collaborations with Lb Honne and Orion, and is set for release on vinyl and digital formats on 28 February.
The track carries a raw UK essence, fusing gritty vocal samples with a soft, ethereal flow. Its smooth tempo and euphoric layers come together with ease, offering subtle surprises as it progresses — a testament to Will You’s sharp craftsmanship and his deep understanding of the emotions that reside on the dancefloor.

Will You joins the roster of Philipp Priebe’s Stólar this February with his ‘Is It 2 Late?’ EP accompanied by remixes from Lb Honne and Orion. Producer, DJ and Oleeva Records label boss Will You has been slowly unveiling his take on contemporary deep house and dub-tinged techno over the past few years via solo material and remixes on his own imprint and most recently a remix of Philipp Priebe’s ‘Movements In An Empty Department Store’ on Stólar. Here we see Will You returning to the latter aforementioned imprint with his latest EP. Leading the release is ‘Santé’, a six and a half minute excursion through snaking sub bass tones, a crisp, shuffled rhythm section, dreamy synth chimes, squelchy 303 licks and spoken word vocal lines. Title-cut ‘Is It 2 Late’ follows next and deviates into more dubbed out territory via expansive, unfurling echoes, cinematic atmospherics and robust, intricate percussion. Opening the flip-side is Zurich’s Lb Honne’s interpretation of ‘Is It 2 Late’, the Project Indigo artist extracts the essence of the original and reshapes it into a subtly nuanced, loop-led and hypnotic workout. Italian duo Orion then conclude the package with their take on ‘Santé’, reshaping the original with their signature deep techno style, fuelled by grainy textural components and bumpy saturated drums.

With their 61st release, Perspectives Digital turn to India and the combined talents of Dharmalogy & Sanjay Dutta as the pair present their aptly titled "Seed / Renascence" EP. A single remix comes from iconic UK artist, Nick Muir.

Originally coming together for a debut release for Baroque Records in December 2012, Dharam and Dutta now revive their long-dormant partnership with a debut original EP for Darin Epsilon's imprint. Kolkata based artist, Dharam, quickly found success with his Dharmalogy moniker and a passion for "hypnotic sounds that could lead to a beautiful trance state of mind". A regular performer behind the decks of the clubs in his hometown, Dharmalogy's monthly "Sounds of Eden" show provided a further vehicle to demonstrate his talents as a musical tastemaker. In tandem, a production career has seen Dharmalogy feature on a host of impressive imprints that include Movement Recordings and Bonzai Progressive.

Joining forces with veteran Indian DJ Sanjay Dutta after a six year hiatus, "Seed" trips across its seven minute voyage with a shaker-fueled percussive groove and deep kick that lay the foundations for a rich bass pattern to lock tightly to the rhythmic framework. Evolving subtly across the opening section, a shimmering melodic motif edges to the fore at the midpoint before a hypnotic melodic sequence reveals itself in the second half.

The flip side "Renascence" revels in head-shaking bass to create a deep and brooding atmosphere. Built upon traditional rhythmic principles with its offbeat snare and hi hat pattern, an arpeggio gradually filters into audible range to fill the sonic foreground. Coruscating elegantly across the track, the sequence rises and falls in synchronicity with rhythmic cadence and bassline dominance. Reaching its zenith with sustained counterpoint chord progression, the final drop reveals the full array of rhythm and melody with dramatic panache.

The word 'legend' is oft-used but rarely more applicable than to someone who's been at the vanguard of the music industry for almost four decades. Renowned for his solo performances across South America and production work for a plethora of labels, Nick Muir's association with John Digweed on the latter's Bedrock imprint has been long and illustrious. With almost 200 production credits for the label, his "Crazy Diamond/Divenire" EP, alongside Digweed and Eagles & Butterflies, illustrates precisely why Muir continues to perform at the summit of the underground dance music arena. Making his second appearance on Perspectives Digital after an August 2018 remix of Darin Epsilon's "Denpasar", Nick Muir returns to the label with a compelling remix of "Seed". Full of driving bassline power and rapid-fire shakers, a hypnotic motif morphs into a filtered-delay frenzy as it feeds back on itself to a rousing zenith. Other melodies drift and play off each other where they converge and culminate in a breakdown that explodes in metallic power with rhythm and bass in the final movement. The result is an innovative and dynamic remix of the highest order.

Spring 2018 saw Mexican artist, Hot Tuneik, debut on Proton Music with "Revival". Now returning to the EP, new remixes from esteemed producers provide a fresh new perspective.

The ‘double-headed dragon' that comprises the Lanvary production duo has seen Alex and Andrew become a major force in the electronic music scene. Diverse musical perspectives have seen the pair delight with a musical recipe that combines elements from progressive and deep house with techno flourishes in a distinct and unique sound. Over a century of production credits can be found next to the Lanvary name since an early debut for Underphunk in late 2010. Going on to see their music featured on Stellar Fountain, Mistique Music and Particles, their work for the latter has found success with a trio of original EPs in 2015's "Micromegas", 2016's "Penumbra" and 2017's "Leviathan". Lanvary's work for Proton Music is centred around the superb "Venus" in December 2017, while a pair of remixes for Matter is now followed by a wonderful reworking of "Memories". Hitting hard with dominant beat and ticking off-beat percussion, a sumptuous bass groove quickly makes its presence felt as the melodic elements of the original resonate through the Lanvary interpretation. The pulsating string motifs from Hot TuneiK's track rise and fall throughout and a host of new production material supply dynamic dance-floor credentials to keep club-goers happy with a seamless blend of rhythm and melody.

Hot TuneiK's "Revival" is complete as new remixes from Matter and Lanvary reinvent and revitalise.
