Successful artists in their own rights, Mariner + Domingo are a new artistic pairing to grace the Particles catalogues, now showcasing their "Azimuth" EP. With over two decades success in the dance music industry and several hundred production credits to their name, the duo joined forces in late 2019 leading to a Balkan Connection debut in July 2020 courtesy of the "Fantastic Playground" EP. Since then, music for such established imprints as Sound Avenue, The Purr and Stellar Fountain have continued to see the pair scale the heights of the underground dance scene. Now debuting on Particles, "Azimuth" sees Mariner + Domingo create a flowing organic house track characterised by intricate percussive groove, full of acoustic hits and woodblock delight. Building smoothly, joyous motifs float across the 6-minute piece as expertly balanced melodies and vocal phrasing play off each other, evolving effortlessly in symbiotic fashion as they reach their zenith in the latter stages. "Spirit Guide" continues the rhythmic narrative of the title track as a head-shaking groove and heavy beat quickly takes shape. A smooth bassline makes its presence felt as multi-layered pads and shimmering counterpoint melody provide the perfect accompaniment for a female vocal to meander across the track. A stripped back breakdown provides the opportunity for melodic elements to come together moving powerfully forward in the second half to create a summery organic house offering.

Juan Deminicis has been a regular on the Proton Music and Particles catalogues throughout a highly successful and impressive career. Always in the playlists of the DJ glitterati, a host of original work for Proton Music via the "Life on the Moon" and "Synchronicity" EPs, has been complemented by Particles editions including remixes from Gux Jimenez, Ejaz Ahmed and Lucas Rossi. Now returning with his own production material for the first time since debuting with "Outstanding" as part of the "Winter Particles 2012" compilation, the Juan Deminicis remix of "Azimuth" is a typically impressive reworking that captures the essence of the original while creating a swathe of additional production material that makes the track his own. A subterranean bassline and rich rhythmic groove provide the backdrop for new melodies to shine through as they glitter and shimmer against the vocal phrasing of the original, building in spine-tingling emotion into the third movement. The result is a very special interpretation.

Another artist with a strong Particles relationship, Rafa'EL debuted on the label with "Montessori" on the "Summer 2015" album. Since then, June 2018's "Twin Flames" and November 2019's "Floating Moments" have shone a bright light on the Polish artist's talent and creativity. Seeing that relationship grow stronger still, the Rafa'EL remix captures the essence of "Spirit Guide" while transforming the melodic themes present in the original into a delightful interpretation where a new piano motif sits perfectly against the shimmering phrasing and a pitched vocal variation of the original. An emotive string section makes a powerful statement at the breakdown before extending into the second half as rhythmic elements from Mariner + Domingo lilt delicately atop to create a wondrous groove. A powerful beat and sustained bassline complete the sonic collage in an expertly crafted interpretation.
