Kicking off the compilation isTurkish-born DJ and producer Evren Furtuna with his track ‘Cupid’. Having previously released on Kora’s imprint Saisons and Kiksuya records, Evren’s latest displays his emotive production style with flourishing chords throughout.

Following on from his appearance on Anjunadeep Explorations 14, Russian DJ and producer Maxxim returns to the Explorations series with his track ‘Waterfalls’. Combining intertwined melodies with plucked percussion, Maxxim's latest showcases why he's garnered support from Joris Voorn, Black Coffee and Solomun.
 
Next up, is a fresh rework from Colombian-based DJ and producers Kamilo Sanclemente & Dabeat. Stamping their mark on Fingerprint’s (an alias of Tony McGuinness) ‘Rye & Eggs’, the pair combine deep grooves with soft piano melodies.
 
Colombian producer Giovannny Aparicio returns to the Explorations series with ‘You Near Me’ featuring vocals from Velveta. Following releases on Plattenblank, Proton Music and Songspire records, Aparicio's latest demonstrates why he's been supported by the likes of Hernan Cattaneo, Roy Rosenfeld and Marsh.
 
Next is a showcase of Indian talent in the form of DJ and producer Weird Sounding Dude with ‘Hyper Dream’. Following previous releases on The Soundgarden and Sudbeat, Weird Sounding Dude continues to showcase complex production with symphonic and uplifting melodies.

Tash's Movement Recordings opens the new year by welcoming Weird Sounding Dude back to the label for his debut EP. As one of India's rising musical mavericks, Weird Sounding Dude has emerged from his country's electronic landscape as a premiere progressive house talent. Long a favourite of genre tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Guy J and Cid Inc, the Bangalore resident often touches on disparate themes and sounds, straddling the divide between intergalactic design and groove-centric hypnotism. With a career that now spans a decade, Weird Sounding Dude has compiled an impressive discography with standout releases via Anjunadeep, Hoomidaas, The Soundgarden and Sudbeat Music. Movement Recordings has also been a landing spot for the scene veteran, with a contribution to the label's 'GLBLMVMT3 - Exploring India' collection marking his debut in 2020, a project which would lead to a 2021 remix of Not Demure's 'Aifos'. Now, as 2023 begins to take shape, Weird Sounding Dude returns to Movement Recordings with a two-track showcase entitled 'Fallen Poet'.

The title selection finds Weird Sounding Dude composing with a strong sense of rhythm and groove. Beginning with a smooth pulse, its smoky resonance eventually reveals a backbone of monolithic beats and thunderous bass stabs. Instantly seductive, it's this muscular framework which provides the vehicle for panoramic textures and dissonant synth blasts to work their magic, ultimately resulting in a resounding dance floor escapade.

Meanwhile, the companion piece 'Lost Ark' lands with an equally impressive display of craftsmanship, as Weird Sounding Dude reaffirms his ability to tip a dancefloor over the edge. Mountainous grooves and clever rhythmic co-actions underpin a fascinating blend of striking chord stabs, balmy atmospherics and muted piano's, the latter of which provides a heartfelt interlude, before confidently returning to the groove for a heads down finale.

Mogwaa returns to Peggy Gou’s Gudu label with Drifted, his second EP for the imprint and a perfect summary of what makes him one of Korea’s most exciting contemporary artists - complete with a remix by Klasse Werks founder Mr. Ho.

A staple of Seoul’s electronic scene, Mogwaa’s catalogue takes in everything from ambient to jungle - but at the centre of his music, there’s always a distinct sense of melody and pure compositional chops that defines his music regardless of style or tempo. Put simply, you know a Mogwaa track when you hear one.

Quicker in tempo than his last EP for Gudu, Drifted opens with ‘Driven’ - a combo of chopped-up breaks and a relentless riff that does just what the title implies - before Mogwaa really flexes those melodic chops on ‘Chances for Bounces’, getting heady with synthesized voices and an almost Detroit-leaning bassline over an 808 groove. ‘Rushing’ takes things further into peaktime with an acid bassline and some nifty automation to keep things ascending, before Mr. Ho’s remix of ‘Driven’ closes the EP on a dreamy techno tip.

Following several European runs last year that saw Mogwaa perform at Warehouse Project, Pleasure Gardens and more, plus a Boiler Room in Seoul alongside Anz, Sharda, Finn, Closet Yi and Seesea, Drifted is another snapshot into the sound world of this remarkable talent.

Jerome Isma-Ae & Weekend Heroes reunite to drop ‘In The Dark’, out now on Anjunabeats. 

Often dubbed ‘master of the groove’ by label heads Above & Beyond, Jerome Isma-Ae has built a reputation for cutting-edge dance music with the likes of ‘Smile When You Kill Me’ and ‘Speed’. In 2020, Charlotte de Witte remixed Jerome’s ‘Hold That Sucker Down’, which has since amassed over 10M streams and earned support from Tiesto, Armin van Buuren, Oliver Heldens and Alan Fitzpatrick. 

Weekend Heroes have had a busy start to 2023: releasing singles on Escape Gravity, Einmusika Recordings, Eleatics Records, and Zerothree Music; dropping their Soundgarden Spring 2023 Mix; and collaborating with Paul van Dyk on ‘VENTURE X’, a track with over 2M streams and counting.

‘In The Dark’ follows Jerome Isma-Ae & Weekend Heroes' last joint venture on Anjunabeats, ‘Left To Hide’, which featured on Anjunabeats Volume 16 and rose to the top spot on the Beatport Progressive House chart. 

Jerome Isma-Ae & Weekend Heroes’ ‘In The Dark’ is out now on Anjunabeats.

► Release Info:

As the Meanwhile label family goes from strength to strength with a regular supply of high-quality material from around the globe, Meanwhile Horizons turns to co-founder GMJ and a full-label debut with his “Bayen / Metai / Valinor”.

A familiar figure within the progressive house fraternity, GMJ stature continues to rise. The creator of almost 500 production credits, the Australian star is a regular contributor to some of the finest modern imprints that include Balance Music, Replug and Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music. As a regular on the flagship Meanwhile label with a host of solo and collaborative material, the Australian’s full debut outing on Meanwhile Horizons is another powerful reminder of the GMJ attention to detail and immaculate fusion of rhythmic intricacy and melodic flair.

Opening with the velvety smooth “Bayen”, a deep resonant kick drum keeps the melodic actors in check as a gently swaying percussive backdrop provides subtle dancefloor energy. Building through the early movements, smooth motifs make their presence felt before a huge sub-bassline note and intelligent progression creates spine-tingling emotion. Arpeggios, pads and counterpoint phrasing then combine at the breakdown before dropping back into the rhythmic melange.

“Metai” continues the easy melodic narrative as an influx of harmonious characters blend together with dulcet tones. Replete in long reverb tails, epic delays and evocative atmosphere, fizzing white-noise washes create additional texture as delicate melodic sequences flow across a sonic landscape held together by the aural glue of a mesmerising grooved bassline. The result is a timeless track that passes its 7-minutes in seemingly seconds.

The final offering finds “Valinor” delivering a broken beat masterclass that coruscates over a head-shaking rhythmic path. A swathe of new layers are added in imperceptible fashion as the sublime groove catches hold under delicate synth phrasing and rich pads. Waxing and waning in understated fashion, the introduction of another wonderful bassline phrase adds texture and aural depth.

Showcasing yet another facet of a versatile production portfolio, GMJ shines jewel-like through the sonic triptych of “Bayen / Metai / Valinor”.

Tracklist:
01. Cid Inc. - Citadel (Original Mix)
02. Cid Inc. - Rescue Me (Original Mix)

Release Info: 
Presenting his first original project of 2020, Henri Hurtig aka Cid Inc. returns to Replug Records with a two-track artist showcase. 2019 proved to be another year of successes for the Finnish producer. The March release of his well received ‘Via Karela’ EP got the year underway, setting the stage for contributions to Hernan Cattaneo’s ‘Balance Presents Sunsetstrip’ compilation and the Armadillo Records ‘Fields, Vol. 1’ collection. October then saw Henri commemorate Replug’s ten-year anniversary with the Orsen collaboration ‘Ten’, before returning to Guy J’s Lost & Found Records with a chart-topping remix of Kasper Koman’s ‘Hi’ to round the year out in style.  Now following a remix for Einmusika to begin 2020, Cid Inc. lands back on his comfortable home of Replug Records with the much anticipated ‘Citadel’.

Having been a highlight and much requested track of Cid Inc’s recent gigs, it is the melodic wonder ‘Citadel’ which gets the EP underway. Rhythmically buoyant, it's rippling low end, spastic synths and fiery percussive set the piece on a course for aural enlightenment. Metallic accents steal the air at opportune moments as a quirky acid line rises into the main break. Effervescent modulation sizzles across the centrepiece, devilish and emotive in equal measure, eventually reaching a rousing crescendo as the groove drops for a storming finale.

Rounding out the EP is the equally excellent 'Rescue Me'. In carving out a distinctive groove, Cid Inc. has fashioned a strong foundation, flanked by layers of finely tuned percussion and rhythmic pulses. Charging forward, siren-like synths descend over the framework, adding a radiant glow as the breakdown commences. Moments of euphoric reflection encapsulate the centrepiece, before melting down to a trail of vocal fragments and charged beats.

As Cid Inc. embarks on what promises to be another memorable year, ‘Citadel’ not only sets the bar high but makes its mark as one of the winter season’s most sought after progressive house releases.

PREMIERE: Cid Inc. - Citadel (Original Mix) [Replug]

One of Scandinavia's leading DJs, producer, promoter, head of music at YleX, father and a music lover. 

Bookings: paula@silverlining.agency

Orkidea has been one of Scandinavia’s leading DJs since the early 90s. He is best known for his unique blend of trance and progressive: credible and firmly rooted in the underground origins of trance. His music has been supported by a wide variety of DJs from the ultimate taste makers such as Pete Tong and Sasha to stadium filling titans Armin van Buuren and Tiesto. All artists that he has enjoyed sharing the stage with too.

Tapio Hakanen aka Orkidea has released four full length albums for Black Hole, AVA and Universal Music. He is best known for classics such as Unity, YearZero and Nana and timeless remixes of Way Out West’s Killa, Aalto’s Rush and Tiesto’s Flight 643. Lately he has been one of the key creative forces in Solarstone’s Pure Trance movement and has had the pleasure of mixing the first compilation, releasing on the label and performing at their high profile events around the globe. Orkidea is also a member of the critically acclaimed VII DJ collective.

Throughout his career, Orkidea has been voted seven times as #1 DJ in Finland and two times the most popular DJ in Scandinavia and made it to the DJ Mag Top 200 and Tranceaddict Top 100 lists. He has had 32 Beatport Top 100 tracks, one iTunes #1 album, a Finnish singles chart #1 and a Beatport Trance #1 single under his belt alongside over 30 million plays in YouTube, SoundCloud and Spotify.

Since his first gigs at illegal squat house underground raves in 1992, Orkidea has played over 2000 gigs around the world at legendary venues such as Ministry of Sound in London, Cafe del Mar in Ibiza, Tresor in Berlin, Pacha in Buenos Aires and Avalon in Los Angeles, as well as some of world’s most prestigious events including Dreamstate USA, Luminosity, Transmission and Amsterdam ADE.

Between his peers, he is known as being driven by his constant need to evolve and create. Something he fulfills by uniting, supporting and inspiring the people and movements he is passionate about. Dedication to the scene and ethos of “Forward Forever, Backwards Never” has kept Orkidea moving and progressing for over 25 years and it’s still what keeps him as relevant and credible as ever.
