A regular on Proton Music with his distinctive original music, Rudy and his "All Things Fade" EP first hit the label in March 2019. After remixes from high-profile stars including Jamie Stevens and Mark Slee, Particles now sees its own release with new remixes from UK and Italian producers.

Steve Haines has been at the forefront of the dance music scene for over two decades with a huge global following, over 400 production credits and support from a 'Who's Who' of A-list DJs that includes Sasha and Paul Oakenfold. Transferring this kudos to a different production moniker is no mean feat but with his Bluum pseudonym, Haines has quickly generated significant success and impressive traction. Moreover, a clutch of original tracks on the Paul Thomas run UV, part of Aly and Fila's Future Sound of Egypt label family, has seen Bluum establish a host of new admirers and blue-chip play from Armin Van Buuren, Above and Beyond and Matt Darey among others. Moreover, JOOF, mau5trap and Mango Alley have all played host to the Bluum sound since early 2018.

A pair of remixes for Izzet and Rick Pier O'Neil in January and July 2019 saw Bluum open his Particles account as he now returns for a third outing. With a laidback percussive groove, the Bluum remix of "Real You" provides a smooth and flowing framework from which Rudy's beautiful melodic elements continue to shine. A rasping bassline gradually evolves in open-filtered intensity alongside a hypnotic new arpeggio that adds new dynamism, while a host of new production material shows Bluum at the height of his powers.

A 2019 newcomer to the underground dance scene, Davide Ferrario has quickly made a name for himself. A debut on atish and Mark Slee's Manjumasi with the stylish twin-track "Lullabies" EP, saw the Italian hit the heights in April with elegant deep house vibes, backed by exceptional remixes from Bengal and Nitin. November saw Ferrario feature on My Other Side of the Moon with the wonderful "Drops" as he now debuts on Particles with a first-ever remix.

Reworking the title track, a stripped-back percussive top line encases Rudy's wonderful flowing piano lines in a crisp rhythmic shell. Rising and falling with ease the beautiful motifs are enhanced with Davide Ferrario's new production work adding a new dimension and additional phrasing to the original. A driving beat and subtle bassline add depth and power in an interpretation that promises a very bright future for the Milanese artist.

Remixes from Bluum and Davide Ferrario have provided a bright, shining future for Rudy and "All Things Fade".
