Prolific throughout 2016, Sebastian Busto's three-track "Nature" EP hit the Particles catalogue in September. Now in early 2017, we return to the title track with a trio of new remixes from the Netherlands, Turkey and Greece.

Finding a strong affinity with techno after a roommate introduced him to the genre in 2010, Frezel, soon became inspired by the likes of Solee, Arjuna Schicks and Microtrauma. Beginning his commercial production journey in mid-2013 after moving to South Africa, "Under a Palm Tree" saw a debut release for the Dutch artist on Experimentalist. Continuing to find his feet, a century of releases for a host of impressive imprints including Abstract Space, Bullfinch and MNL, has marked a productive couple of years. Making his Particles debut, Frezel sees his work as "a page out of my diary…each track has a totally different atmosphere and feeling to it". Thus, his remix of "Nature" is a typically dynamic offering that revels in crystalline lead line that pierces the sonic spectrum with its evocative structure. Elements of Busto's original can be heard but a sharp deviation from the original provides Frezel's rework with a unique aural identity that bristles with dominant kick and laser-edged arpeggio sequence in the third movement.

Turkish artist, Erdi Irmak, needs no introduction to the Particles and Proton faithful. An artist with an acute ear, his rise to the underground dance industry's top table has been assured. With a penchant for combining the sonic characteristics of his home country into his work, Irmak's sound has brought success across a plethora of high-profile labels including Movement Recordings, Balkan Connection and Stripped. Particles' 2014 debut full-length album, "You're Either Guilty or Not Guilty" was a highlight as was the "Night" EP for Proton Music. Now returning to Particles for the first time in 18 months, the Erdi Irmak remix is a typically mature and intelligent reworking. Making clever use of Busto's original twinkling melodic component, Irmak's skill is to wrap "Nature" around a new rhythmic casing, replete with dominant kick and hi hat percussive cadence, while melodic refrains from the original take on a new direction with a raft of additional production from within the Erdi Irmak arsenal. The resultant piece is a dance floor pleaser that is full of emotion.

From the Greek town of Chios, Christopher FaFa has been a staple of his hometown's dance community for over two decades as an initiation into the world of vinyl in the mind-1990s saw regular DJ appearances. Running the monthly "Syncopation" radio show on Proton Radio has extended FaFa's influence and a production career that has seen several production credits for 3rd Avenue, Forward Music and LuPS, illustrates a growing sound. Furthermore, an unofficial remix of microCastle's Navar and Mononoid – "X and Y", has received over 5,500 Soundcloud plays. It is therefore with great pleasure that Particles welcomes Christopher FaFa to Particles with an impressive debut remix. An intricate house groove with subtle percussive cadence provides a liquid and evolving backdrop as melodic refrains from Busto's original filter into listener consciousness. Creating a hypnotic texture, the shimmering lead line makes its presence felt in a spine-tingling breakdown with cavernous bass and additional layers of production material. Cleverly reworking themes of the original in the third movement, FaFa's "Nature" remix marks an impressive debut.

A trio of new remixes of Sebastian Busto from Frezel, Erdi Irmak and Christopher FaFa see "Nature" very much in harmony with electronic innovation.
