Cattaneo´s Resident Collection - part 4

With a mission statement to include the newest and brightest talent with the more established order of underground dance artists, Particles has always been at the vanguard of the dance movement, helping to give artists a platform in an unforgiving industry. As 2016, swiftly kicks into gear, we are proud to introduce another new artist to our roster, this time in the shape of German producer, Aural. Node and his "Clouds at Dawn" EP.

Hailing from the ancient Roman fort city of Mainz in south-western Germany, Jasper Luetkens has began to make a name for himself in the production area with his Aural.Node production moniker. An artist with a modus operandi demonstrating a "symbiosis between nature and technology", the Aural.Node raison d'être is to reconcile the "bridge between the highly artificial and technology dependent electronic music and the spirituality of our minds and souls". Thus, the perennial question of how to develop a musical soul within the rigid, loop-driven structures of dance music is uppermost in the Aural.Node sound.

Building on a noteworthy DJ career with live performances at clubs such as Tresor in Berlin, the ability to create warm analogue instrumentation and organic sounds within Aural.Node's music has thus seen "Blutmond" for EME now followed by the impressive four-track "Clouds at Dawn" EP for Particles.

"Fräulein Dur" opens proceedings with its hypnotic and grooved riff melded with cavernous analogue bass. Developing elegantly with ticking percussive hi-hats driving the rhythm section, a sublime freeform melodic paining provides a deliciously evocative landscape that bristles with gently pulsating vibrancy. Continuing the theme, "Sadulo" instantly provides a sense of subtle urgency with its popcorn bouncing riff that revels in delayed groove while an intelligent percussion section supplies a perfect rhythmic partner. The addition of a reversed lead sequence and vowel filter further adds an air of playful fun to an intelligently produced track.

The smooth bass prowess found within "Inverse Motion" is another fine example of the range of sounds available to Aural.Node production palette as a pitched vocal treatment adds a slightly sinister edge to staccato rhythms and rasping bass filters. Hitting its stride in the third movement, the combination of rhythm and imaginative melody give the track a strong character. Aptly named, the title track itself is full of meandering pad textures that pitch a weaved path in coruscating glory. A dance floor component comprised of glassy grooved riff is a welcome addition, interacting expertly with strong techno beat and relentlessly pulsing bass line. The result is an ingenious affair that bears comparison with Kraftwerk style Teutonic precision coupled with organic passion.

A debut EP full of skill and promise sees Aural.Node develop his music, "From Clouds and Spaces" while his feet remain firmly on the ground, anchored for success.

Aural.Node - Clouds At Dawn

Tech & Progressive House

Our next fine release is delivered to you by the Polish talent Martin Graff, if you have followed his productions up until now, you know to be prepared for an intoxicating journey full of melodies, emotion and quality tracks. Appearing on labels such as Nueva, Colorize, ESM & PHW, he has built up an extraordinary catalogue of releases that have been taken to immediately by everyone in this genre.

For this package, Martin has created two mind blowing productions to tantalize all our senses and he sure does everything to deliver. First up we have the magnificent "Congo", a crisp production that from the moment it is played, you can tell it is going to be an explosive ride packed with haunting melody work that reflects the Congo plains and jungles. Intriguing, beautiful & deep, the sounds of the wild are truly brought to life with the smooth tribal sounds, adding in the sounds of the majestic animal that is the elephant, it blends this piece of heaven together. The multitude of percussions and selective choice of the main melodic hook plays such a substantial part in making this production come to life like a time lapse of the Congolese seasons in our thoughts.

The next phenomenal track in this superb release is titled "Devotion". Taking a spin in the other direction from "Congo", this beauty resonates the subtle elements that we all have as people, the need for being needed, and to be someone that another soul needs. The stunning rich textures of the release is reflected by the use of the stimulating yet powerful chords. gritty percussion use and an energetic atmospheric vibe making it club friendly as well as for individual serenity time.  The breakdown comprised of the heart wrenchingly beautiful piano lines captivates us for the immense energy that follows. He has reached into the depths of a magical journey and has collected all the right sounds, elements & feelings to create this wonderfully constructed piece. 

Another perfectly executed release by this skillful producer for you all to feast your ears on and of course, there is plenty more up coming so stick around. We share what all the listeners feel, the passion & magic in melodies translated in the form of music and that is exactly what we aim to do, here at Perplexity Music. Text By: Hazra Begum

▼ Release Tracklist:
01 Talamanca - Meditation (Deep Mix)
02 Talamanca - The Underground (Deep Mix)

Dutch label veteran Talamanca is back with a brand new EP, "Meditation," featuring two lush, deep-progressive house cuts. Jacob Henry and Tom Fall featured both tracks on their recent Silk Music Showcase 06 compilation.

"Meditation" takes off with strong percussion layers and other-worldly pads. Underneath, the bassline variations combined with subtle synth effects provide remarkable texture. As the song progresses, numerous captivating synth elements build atop the already mesmerizing soundscape.

In "The Underground," prominent bassline notes quickly emerge, which, together with intriguing percussion stems, establish a strong groove. Later, a light theme lead appears, which goes remarkably well with the spellbinding bassline notes and background arpeggio layers.

I made this track with my new Access VirusTI Synthesizer. I bought it a few days ago.
It was just like a little jam-session.
The track sounds like a smooth summer after breeze. 

Have fun with this track and enjoy the last days of summer :-) I will.

The drums are coming from the Machine (Native Instruments)
