A child of the 1980s, Greek artist, Simos Tagias has seen his profile soar at an astonishing rate in recent times. Continuing this upwards trajectory, Proton Music is delighted to announce the release of a debut original EP for the label, in the shape of the twin-track, "Airlock".

Hailing from the beautiful city of Serres in northern Greece, Simos Tagias, has found himself at the vanguard of underground dance scene. Discovering a passion for dance music in the 1990s at the threshold of bold and exciting times for the genre, Simos began his first foray in the world of DJ'ing through private parties and local events. Entering the world of commercial production in late 2012, the "Voices EP" for Lynx Music set him on a path from which he would not look back. Some thirty production credits for the label have followed as a prolific career took off in spectacular fashion.

Over the past three years, almost a triple century of production credits can be found next to the Simos Tagias name, as Stellar Fountain, Balkan Connection and Silk Angel Recordings have played host to his work. Furthermore, an appearance on the "Sudbeats 3" compilation with Michael and Levan and Stiven Rivic, with the track "Vega", for the Hernan Cattaneo owned label, was a notable career high point. In tandem with a blossoming production career, DJ appearances across Europe have begun to accelerate with performances alongside Guy J, Luis Junior and Scotty.A.

The successful monthly "Omega" show on Proton Radio continues to showcase Simos' mixing skills and production talent and he has been a regular on the Particles imprint since April 2015 with an array of original and remix material. A single remix of Soulwerk in the summer of 2016 accounts for output on Proton Music thus far, so it with no considerable degree of satisfaction and excitement, that we welcome Simos Tagias and his "Airlock" EP to the label.

The title track itself opens with a blistering percussive section, ticking hi-hats and rapid-fire shakers sharing the upper frequencies with clicking claves. Evolving hypnotically, an intelligent locked groove plays it part through syncopated bass line, as a collage of intermittent effects and gated white noise pads keep interest high. Stepped melodic sequences add a touch of fashionable class to "Airlock" and the resultant effect is to produce a track in the Cid Inc. mould that it is certain to keep dance floors seething in the early hours.

Partner track, "Disco Freak" continues the deep, dark, hypnotic sentiment as a dominant beat anchors itself to urgent percussive rhythms and relentless bass groove. Developing elegantly over the course of its near-eight-minute voyage, a delicious rising effect circles the left-right spectrum, combined with breathy vocal sample, rising to a crescendo at the mid-point breakdown before launching into a huge drop. Bringing together rhythm and melody in glorious harmony for the third movement, an additional layer of melodic cadence brings further intrigue in a highly impressive and mature offering.

A brand new original offering in the shape of the "Airlock" EP has demonstrated Simos Tagias' vice like grip on the underground dance scene.

Francesco Pico's Magnitude Recordings welcomes rising star MXV on board for his label debut release. You might have spotted the London based producer's work already, as he debuted on Gabriel Ananda's Soulful Techno label last year, swiftly followed by great releases on Saturate Audio and Droid9.

The release kicks off with the title track, 'Tropics', an energetic but dreamy piece of progressive house music. It sounds both modern and fresh whilst grabbing back to some classical influences, making it widely appealing for the fans of the genre.

Then it's time for one of Francesco's favorite producers, Brandon Scarbrough, to make his first appearance on Magnitude. He stays close to the main theme of 'Tropics' but gives it a subtle deep and warm touch. Classy rework!

To finish things properly it's time for the second original by MXV, 'Late Change'. A nearly 10 minute long proggy builder. One of those 'close your eyes and live in the the moment' tracks. Proper late night rugged vibes here!

'‘Synchronicity’ is a bold and dynamic compilation of exclusive and previously unreleased tracks from friends of Tripswitch’s flourishing onedotsixtwo label. Featuring exciting new and upcoming talent alongside some well established names, the album has been compiled and mixed by Gustin – a vital member of the onedotsixtwo A&R and management team, and a highly-respected veteran DJ and selector with over 25 years experience playing across the globe.
 
Following on from Tripswitch’s 2017 label launching mix compilation ‘In At The Deep End’ (ODST0001), the time is now perfect for a second V/A release. With so much amazing talent to work with, Gustin has utilised his immense experience to source an exceptional collection of tracks from around the world, including uniquely creative production talent from Argentina, India, Belarus, Estonia, USA and UK.
 
Having spent the past year curating exclusive tracks for ‘Synchronicity’, Gustin finally settled down in the studio to create his stunning DJ mix, a creative process exhibiting perfect selection and timing to build a musical experience that embodies depth, colour and texture, wrapped with contemplation, hypnotic beauty, energy and euphoria.  
 
From Brandon Lee’s opening ‘Free Minds’, a beautifully subdued groover of a track with an enticing snake-charming flute melody, Bangalore-based Weird Sounding Dude’s ‘Hugel’ eases gently into the mix with it’s soaring vocal interludes and euphoric keys. The Argentine duo, Oliver & Tom, have been in high demand recently with releases on some key labels, and its not hard to understand why as ‘True Level’ picks up the pace perfectly with its sparkling production, sublime melodies and infectious groove. 
 
Fellow Argentine producer, Gabriel Amato, further stokes the fire and moves the mix direction towards peak time progressive territory with ‘Starship’, its rolling bassline, hypnotic soaring lead and expertly crafted FX building to an epic breakdown par excellence. Continuing to build the energy levels, the high-flying percussive beauty of ‘Gaspra’, courtesy of the collaborative pairing of New York’s Dysco with Argentina’s Juan Ibanez, meets Michael A’s tantalizing ‘See Yourself’, and the Belarusian electronic artist’s masterful, distinctive melodic atmospherics are always a joy to behold.
 
The spiky, scene setting, contemplative flow of ‘Cloud Atlas’ from Texan producer Kaspar Tasane is perfectly placed to introduce Rodrigo Deem’s pumped-up ‘Panorama’, before another super-talented Argentine producer, the inimitable Partenaire, makes a welcome return to onedotsixtwo with his latest exquisite masterpiece, ‘Warmth’. 
 
We stay in that creative hotbed country as Berni Turletti & Agustin Lupidi combine to create ‘Suyai’, a soaring symphony of synth magnificence that builds towards the album’s peak. The ascent is dramatically furthered courtesy of VINU, a multi-cultural, classically trained violinist and multi-instrumentalist residing in West Palm Beach, Florida, whose penultimate, breath-taking ‘Melodic Sunrise’ masterpiece cruises into the album’s spine-tingling finale, ‘Alive’, a heart-wrenchingly beautiful creation courtesy of Martin Gardoqui, Matias Larrosa and Mario Puccio.'
