Julius Theory

Julius Theory -- "Lost Trance" [PP-010]

An artist making a name for himself on an array of established independent labels, Dave Leck has been a shining light in the progressive house arena with his work for the likes of Emotional Content Recordings, Soundteller Records and Inception. August 2019's "Stardust" EP saw a Particles debut, swiftly followed by "Primal Connection" six months later, including remixes from Andrea Cassino and fellow countrymen, GMJ & Matter. Opening his latest offering, "Radius" is fuelled by a shaker-driven and groove-infused top line. Sumptuously syncopated chords provide instant dancefloor appeal as textured pads supply a relaxed vibe that develops into the breakdown. Picking up the pace once more in the second half, a shimmering arpeggio adds further to a blissful sonic collage. The title track sees "Elevate" continue the shaker driven percussive flair as arpeggiated synth layers and smooth pads create a wonderful sunlit opening. A glorious bassline adds emotion aplenty before a rolling breakbeat provides the perfect rhythmic anchor. Steadily evolving over the 12-minute timeframe, emotive piano motifs emerge and blend into the stripped back breakdown before combining with the other melodic layers to create a stunning and powerful track.

Kamilo Sanclemente requires little in the way of introduction. A talented producer based in Cali, southwest of the Bogotá capital, the Colombian artist has made a name for himself with music on Anjunadeep, JEE Productions and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Sanclemente's "Beyond the Future" series has been a notable highlight on Proton Music while 2017's "Revelations" and 2018's "Eva" made their mark on Particles with a combination of original tracks and outstanding remixes. Now returning after March 2021's remix of Izzet with Mauro Aguirre, the Kamilo Sanclemente reworking of "Elevate" is characterised by a thumping four-to-the-floor backdrop. Creating new arpeggiated sequences with melodic themes rooted in Leck's original, familiar piano motifs make their presence heard. A stunning new bass groove adds further while the remix opens up in the second half to create a storming club-friendly banger that entwines new harmonies and melodies with ease, creating a truly special interpretation.

A rapidly growing force, Eric Lune has continued to make waves since a 2018 debut for Sound Avenue. Going on to see his music feature on such esteemed imprints as Juicebox Music, Plattenbank and Flow Music, September 2020's "North to South" with Golan Zocher was an impressive Proton Music debut, while "Airbag" followed a year later and included a remix from the iconic figure of Bedrock's Nick Muir. Now making his Particles debut, the Eric Lune remix takes "Elevate" on a rich rhythmic voyage that delights with filtered chords that generate a beautiful sonic cadence of their own. Full of emotion, a glissando lead cuts through the mix at the mid-way point and into the breakdown before the rolling rhythmic pattern picks up the pace into the third movement to create an impressive remix that retains the character of Leck's original while transforming it into a new, brightly coloured sonic tapestry.

A pair of original tracks and remixes from Kamilo Sanclemente and Eric Lune have seen Dave Leck "Elevate" to new heights.

Elevate

Elevate (Original Mix)

Demo track from 2007, made with the purpose of being used for a band. The track was never finished or performed. Despite good intentions I got carried away and overdid the overdubs (a tendency I struggle to get rid of even now). I made an effort to leave everything as unaltered as possible from the 2007 mix. The only thing I was forced to add was the bass part; before there was a horrible midi placeholder and it was missing in many parts. I tried to play it the way I would have played it in 2007 and it still remains a bit naive since I am not a bass player.
The drums were made from a sample CD found at a friend's house, I don't know where they came from. It probably also has loops in it from the library of the old Apple Soundtrack Pro...

Sabrina Rivas - Love After Form [Balkan Connection South America]

Dopamine White welcomes PASINDU & Noise Generation to the label with Synthetic, a compelling three-track EP featuring a remix by Sinan Arsan. Emerging from the Sri Lankan and Indian progressive scenes respectively, PASINDU and Noise Generation have been making waves through labels such as AH Digital, Eat My Hat, Freegrant Music, Mango Alley, SLC-6 Music, and Univack. Known for their emotionally resonant and rhythmically rich productions, the duo now brings their sound to Dopamine White with Synthetic—an EP that explores the shadowy edges of progressive house, infused with groove, subtle melody, and introspective textures. The title track Synthetic opens the release with a dark and hypnotic flow. Driven by a brooding low-end and crisp, intricate percussion, the piece builds slowly, unveiling distant melodic phrases and atmospheric flourishes. The mood is intense yet restrained, with moments of brightness piercing through its dusky character—perfect for deeper dancefloor moments or solitary listening. On remix duties, Turkish artist Sinan Arsan delivers a beautifully restrained version of Synthetic, pushing it further into deep, meditative territory. Known for his organic grooves and emotional soundscapes, Sinan adds his signature touch through soft pads, nuanced textures, and a flowing structure that feels both expansive and grounded. Rounding out the EP is Eclipse of Silence, a more groove-oriented take from PASINDU & Noise Generation. Anchored by tight percussion and a steady pulse, the track evolves with subtle melodic cues and shifting rhythmic energy, delivering a hypnotic yet uplifting finale. With Synthetic, PASINDU & Noise Generation deliver a mature and immersive journey into the deeper side of progressive house, while Sinan Arsans remix brings emotional depth and fluid elegance to complete the story.

I have not been able to recover access to my other account [https://soundcloud.com/ha-kekong] for a couple of years.  I have tried a few times to get back into it but SoundCloud doesn't trust me.  Same phone number, same email addresses, and they still claim that they can't verify my identity.  I created that account about three years ago as a substitute to my regular account which SoundCloud temporarily closed.  They closed it as part of some upgrade procedure in their system, the result of a bug that affected many accounts, about two years ago.  Since SC did not inform its users I didn't know if that was permanent or not, so I created that other account which I can't access.  Don't be mad if I have not replied to your message in the past two years, that's because I never got them ; ) ... You can always reach me here though.
...

This one here (957729823) is for regular folks.

I love you, both.

...

You can't see it because of the angle with which I took the shot, aiming down, but beyond those blocks is the sea.  To the left is the Mediterranean, to the right is the Atlantic Ocean.  No it's not Gibraltar, but a little bit further West. ... Actually I checked recently and it is further North more than West, I thought I was facing South when in fact I probably was facing the Atlantic ocean, which is why I suppose the waves were of a decent size where we were.

I'm trying to promote what I think is good music, so if you want to help out a bit I'd rather you [like] or [repost] my *playlists* rather than my field recordings, if you don't mind, unless you are a die hard fan of those things. Thank you ; )

I speak French, so if you send me a private message, and that you are a francophone, please write in French, thank you.  ... I mean, you don't absolutely have to, but I would prefer it. 

All my field recordings (except for when I record a person) are public, freely downloadable by anyone who is able to click on the button.  I encourage anyone interested to use them in any way whatsoever, on purpose or accidentally. No need for permissions or credits or any other kind  of administrative maneuvers.
...

Anarchists give me hope.

I'm a big fan of EFF.  Love ya EFF.  (no connection with the above line)
... and of course Richard Stallman and Linux and all the others.  Bless yous.

Now don't be lazy, go find out what it is this "EFF" that I'm talking about.  I'll give you a hint: it has to do with computers.

You have a nice day now.  Hugs & Kisses.
