Maze 28 - Glacial (Lexicon Avenue Remix) [inU]

An artist familiar to the Particles faithful, Martin Branne returns to the label with his Brann (AR) moniker and his "Waves of Madness" EP.

First debuting on the label in September 2023, Brann (AR) immediately created a wave of excitement in the Particles cognoscenti with his "Endless Moments" EP. Already a favourite on such celebrated imprints as Freegrant Music, LuPS Records and Stripped Digital, the Buenos Aires-based artist's first solo outing was further propelled with remixes from Michael A and fellow countryman, Paul Deep. Now returning, "Waves of Madness" is characterised by a complex and fizzing percussive backdrop and heavy beat while a huge sub-bassline creates a relentless drive. A panoply of pitched instruments and haunting lead add depth and subtle, eerie atmosphere that plays expertly to the title. Pausing for breath at the breakdown, the chorus of melodic characters builds to a dramatic zenith before the track erupts into a huge drop where the powerful rhythmic framework develops into a pounding dancefloor destroyer. Partner track, "Thorn" continues the complex rhythmic arrangement as a squelchy, water-inspired effect makes its play against a relentless running bassline. A swathe of melodic characters wend their way easily across the mid-range, not least in a powerfully envisioned analogue lead line and rippling, filtered arp which come to the fore at the stripped-back mid-point. Hitting its straps once more in the second half, the compelling rhythm and bassline bring the track home in devastating club-friendly manner.

Since a 2018 debut on Renesanz, Pablo Maneiro has been a formidable figure in the underground house scene with his Mayro alter-ego. A regular on the likes of Dear Deer, Univack and UV Noir over a 7-year period, 2022's "Crazy Thoughts" EP was a notable Particles highlight in June. Bookended by remixes of Izzet and Mariano Favre in March and October the same year, Mayro returns with a typically forceful reworking of "Thorn". Creating a huge, grooved bassline underneath a hefty kick and syncopated hi-hats, familiar melodic elements from Brann's original find their way into the remix, developing easily over its seven-minute duration. Building in dramatic fashion, the breakdown finds those melodic elements and effects panning the stereo spectrum before a mesmerising second half sees the bassline dominance excel further still amongst the melodic atmosphere. Mayro's resultant work is the creation of a dynamic jewel.

Matias Chilano is another Argentinean who is no stranger to success across 400 production credits and a 17-year career at the centre of the Progressive House sound. A staple across such esteemed imprints as Balkan Connection, LuPS Records, Juicebox Music and James Warren's Visceral series, a quartet of remixes has seen the Córdoba-based artist rework K Nass, Pysh, Mariano Favre and Andre Sobota for Particles. A symmetrical output on Proton Music remix marked impressive remixes for the likes of Huminal, Sebastian Sellares and Lanvary. Now returning to Particles, the Matias Chilano remix is a typically rich and dynamic affair with chunky beat and fizzing effects that swim across the left-right spectrum. Picking up elements of Brann's original – not least at the kaleidoscopic breakdown where the cadenced motif of "Thorn" makes its presence felt – a rasping bass sequence and rippling synth add to a stunning soundscape. A powerful sonic staging is thus in full effect through Matias' immaculate production work, creating a superb dance-friendly interpretation.

"Waves of Madness" make perfect sonic sense through Brann's twin originals, further developed by Mayro and Matias Chilano.

Agustin Soto - Abyss of Reflections [Balkan Connection South America]

As the short winter days shift perceptibly into longer spring warmth, new life is extended once more into perpetual cycle of Particles seasonal compilation. Bringing together a collection of stunning works, a sextet of artists makes themselves clearly heard.

Returning to Particles after an appearance on the "Summer 2015" edition with the excellent "Silence Between Us", new interpretations of Li-Polymer's work from Matan Caspi and Sapiens and Spring is now followed by two high-calibre tracks. Full of the Portuguese artist's rhythmic flair, the deep house vibe combined with elegant melodic sensibility sees a hypnotic dance floor vibe resonate throughout "Saccharum", a groove revealing itself in post-breakdown zenith as loquacious vocal sample adds texture. "Announce" continues Li-Polymer's subtle rhythmic interplay while breathy pads and stuttered melodic lines reverberate across the upper frequencies. Juxtaposed melodic lines firing across dub bass line in a work of imagination and flair.

A sumptuous contribution comes from Proton progenitor, Biologik. A master of his craft through an array of analogue, modular equipment and modern technical know-how, the Canadian's work has graced countless imprints with support from the industry's finest. Renowned and respected, Biologik's "Healing You" is as beautiful as it is elegant with its uplifting chord progressions and rasping bass prowess in the early movements, graduating into full blown synth energy from the mid-point onwards. As printed image then dissipates in the final movement, sultry rhythms provide the perfect accompaniment in a work of genuine skill.

Marking his 2015 Particles debut through his remix of Omar El Gamal's "Hacienda", Hot TuneiK's work for 76 Recordings and 3rd Avenue, has seen the Mexican artist now delight with his low-slung groove and steadily pulsing bass line prominence. Evolving subtly over its nine-minute outing, white noise powered effects fizz against a chorus of reverb-drenched pads and strings that tell their own story. The clever introduction of a deep, bouncing bass line then adds a further twist of dance floor know-how in the final movement to impressive effect.

Needing little introduction, prolific German based artist, LoQuai, hits his stride with "Replicant" as a vibrant, uptempo percussive pass jostles for attention amongst smooth pads and rich lead lines. The end result is a work of intrigue and melancholy edginess from the 2016 Particles debutant and founder of the newly formed Refined Tunes imprint. Regular on the Inlab and melodic techno imprint, ADRO, Greek producer, Futur-E makes his Particles debut with the driving techno beat of "Octagonal". A repetitive vocal cut and clever melodic riff immediately brings a subconscious recollection of Chemical Brothers African expedition, while pulsating pads bring detailed texture and substance to an intelligent work.

Closing proceedings with a relative newcomer to the underground dance scene, Russian artist, Owersound provides a delicious slice of melodic house joy through "Spiral". After a memorable 2015 which began on Stellar Fountain, Owersound's Particles debut is a sublime collection of shimmering melodic entanglement that bounces effortlessly, aided by strong rhythmic groove, pitched vocal cut and intelligent filtered phrasing.

A lucky seven sees Particles continue to find good fortune into "Spring 2016".
