Part of the sultry 16-track package that comprised the "Summer Particles 2014" compilation, Antrim and his track, "Metheny", provided an arpeggio led work that twinkled and sparked with soft rhythmic poise in a moment of delightful contemplation. Now returning for a full release, "Metheny" is well served with remixes from Australia, Greece and Argentina.

Melbourne's GMJ has trodden an impressive path in recent times with a steady flow of production material throughout 2014 that has caught the attention of an ever-widening fan base. A renowned DJ, he describes his sets founded upon a passion for "deep spatial atmospheric music". Having performed at venues across the globe, his production work has hit the catalogues of Open Records, Vapour and Stripped with regular frequency. Supported by the likes of Eelke Kleijn, Kassey Voorn and Dousk, quality is one component that has not been in short supply. November's "Forgotten Wisdom" EP for Particles marked a high point for the GMJ sound as Gavin Griffin now returns to remix Antrim. A complex rhythmic foundation forms the backdrop for a sustained pad to wash over the listener, evolving and pulsating throughout the track. Full of emotion with haunting vocal and deep bass treatments, the GMJ "Silent Pause Mix" of "Metheny" is an impressive work hinting cleverly at Antrim's original.

Greek producer Simos Tagias has been responsible for a prolific burst of material during the course of 2014. Gradually carving out a niche sound with each release, his work for Lynx, Stellar Fountain and Silk Angel have each brought him greater notoriety and support. Accomplished in both original production material and remix work, Tagias' music has seen him feature two original works on the "Spring" and "Summer Particles 2014" compilation series, combined with two remixes of Jelly For The Babies and Omar El Gamal in April and July. Remixing Antrim, the Simos Tagias interpretation opens with hi-hat urgency and up-tempo feel. Cleverly using the melodic foundations of the original with sensitivity, Tagias creates a sublime texture of bass and pads with a reworking of the arpeggio to provide a strong fast-paced piece with sinister edginess.

Martin Kazez claims his current role is "trying to understand and explain life through sounds". Born and raised in Argentina, a clutch of releases to his name has thus far seen his work allied to such impressive imprints as Stripped Digital, Green Snake and OLD SQL. At home with both original and remix productions, Kazez claims his music is "from my heart" and "for your soul". A debutant to Particles through the "Fall 2013" compilation, Martin Kazez's "Untouchable" is now joined by his remix of "Metheny". A soft meandering journey of subtle rhythm and melodic interplay, clicking percussive elements are juxtaposed against soft pads to provide elegant reminders of Antrim's original melodic phrases. The resultant work is a creation of skill and subtlety for his fellow countryman.

A group of new interpretations has taken Antrim and his "Metheny" to a new milieu of impressive underground house.

From his home in South Argentina, Alan Cerra makes a welcome return to Particles with a pair of new original tracks and a remix from the iconic figure of Gai Barone, as he showcases "The End of the Line".

An artist with more than a double century of production credits to his name, Alan Cerra has come a long way since a debut for 3rd Avenue in late-2019. Since then, a host of original and remix production material has appeared on the likes of Mango Alley, Juicebox Music, AH Digital and Miss Monique's Siona Records. Finding his way onto Particles in July 2023, the "Opposite Ways" EP saw twin original tracks from the Santa Cruz resident grace the label with a pair of standout remixes from Blood Groove & Kikis and Sebastian Sellares.

Now returning, the title track is a pounding melodic house number that oozes bassline drive and rhythmic intensity. Haunting pads add delicate juxtaposition before a syncopated motif hints at what is to come. Maintaining its bass intensity through the beatless breakdown, "End of the Line" pauses for breath before the rhythmic foundation engages dancefloor force once more in the third movement. Moreover, the plucked motif of earlier phases comes full to the floor in a display of smooth production prowess.

Partner track, "For All Time" hits the ground running with a graceful grooved bass sequence and perfectly placed rhythmic backdrop. Evolving with easy elegance, a soul-stirring motif leads the way before being joined with cascading arpeggiated sequence and lead. A cinematic breakdown adds a swathe of new sound textures and shimmering emotion before the track drops into familiar groove-laden territory and searing synth through the second half.

Gai Barone has been a welcome addition to the Particles catalogue since a label debut remixing Verche's "Riptide" with some time production partner, Luke Brancaccio. 14 months later then saw an appearance on Mortinaire's "Amped" album remixing "Somewhere". With almost 750 credits to his name on some of the industry's finest imprints, the Bologna-based star with releases on such esteemed imprints as Sprout, Black Hole, JOOF and Afterglow, now reworks "End of the Line" with typical aplomb.

Making excellent use of the bassline dominance of the original, a huge low-end swell builds in energy before a hypnotising arpeggio, filters into range with its searing and vibrato edge. A chorus of effects and soundscapes then evolve before the heavy beat and offbeat hats drop back into a rhythmic collage. Waxing and waning with ease in a track chock-full of production and dancefloor knowhow, Gair Barone's reworking of "The End of the Line" is a powerful reminder of why the Italian sits at the head of underground dance's top table.

A new EP and a remix from Gai Barone have illustrated that Alan Cerra is far from reaching "The End of the Line".
