A legendary figure, Paul Deep has been at the vanguard of the underground dance scene for over a decade. Now he returns to Proton Music with the brand new "You Do" EP.

Showcasing his music on such glittering imprints as GMJ & Matter's Meanwhile, Henry Saiz's Natura Sonoris and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, the Argentinean has been a regular on Proton Music since 2022 with his 3-track "Orchid" and June 2024 "Odyssey" original EPs. Returning for the first time in over a year, "You Do" is a typically smooth and polished affair with chest-thumping kick, rolling percussive groove and ticking hi-hats. Add in a subterranean sub-bassline and deliciously hypnotic revolving motifs that expand with glistening delicacy at the mid-point, and the track reveals the extraordinary quality of Paul Deep's production talent.

On remix duties, Roger Martinez is a seasoned, "trance inducing" DJ and production maestro who has been part of the Proton Music roster for more than 15 years since a 2008 debut and the "Retrospect EP". Remixes of Matt Rowan and Moonbeam followed before 2017's "Dream State" was a notable highlight in a glittering portfolio which later saw remixes from Stas Drive and Orsen. Returning with a masterful reinterpretation of "You Do", a powerful tribal groove is immediately in evidence before mesmerising melodic phrases filter into sonic range. A sustained bassline melody at the breakdown is a spine-tingling highlight that perfectly complements the arpeggiated melodic sequencing, while the driving tribal rhythms hit hard once again in the second half alongside an intermittent vocal sample.

A Proton Music newcomer, Juan Ibanez is no stranger to the modern Progressive House scene. Hailing from the north-western province of La Rioja, the Argentinean producer fuses deep and progressive sounds with his music finding its way onto such blue-chip labels as Juicebox Music, Mango Alley and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Now adding Proton Music to that resumé, the Juan Ibanez remix of "You Do" is a sophisticated gem characterised by an intricately programmed rolling groove that lays the perfect foundation for a magnificently deep bass groove to evolve underneath haunting new melodies and the central refrain of Paul Deep's original. As the bassline evolves into new directions, so the melodies follow in effortless patterns as the breakdown explodes into progressive breakbeat territory with whispered vocal sample, before a second half of dizzying arpeggio joy.

Paul Deep finds his magical touch once more with "You Do" ably abetted with remixes from Roger Martinez and Juan Ibanez.

Premiere: Quivver - Another Storm [Mango Alley]


A prominent figure in underground house since the 1990s, Nick Muir is a global icon. Marking a return to Proton Music, he delivers yet another trademark masterpiece through "Eyes Up".

One half of the Bedrock duo alongside John Digweed, responsible for such legendary offerings as 1999's "Heaven Scent" and 2002's "Emerald", the UK based artist has become a Proton favourite since an initial remix for Rick Pier O'Neil in 2019. Further reworkings of Sebastian Sellares and Eric Lune followed with a remix of Luke Mandala's "Eagle Song" in early 2024. "All One Word" marked a powerful original debut, later reworked by powerhouses, Trilucid, as Nick now returns with a second original track. Redolent in trademark production techniques and distinctive sound, "Eyes Up" bristles with dancefloor dynamism, propelled forward by dizzying percussive hats and a huge bassline progression. Developing easily in club-friendly manner by an artist who has spent a career as a touring DJ, delicate melodies twinkle across the mid-range in perfect counterpoint before a breakdown creates a momentary pause for breath. Dropping back into the driving rhythm, a dancing inverted chord pattern balances against the earlier bassline phrase. The result is a masterful track from an artist still at the peak of his powers.

First up on remix duties, Irish-born, Australian-based artist, Amháin, is a name synonymous with a gorgeous, flowing and multi-faceted sound that has seen the Melbourne-based artist a master of the modern Progressive House arena. A regular on Balance Music, HIGHER STATES and Mango Alley, his "Starseed" EP for Proton Music was a notable highlight. Remixes of Michael A and Erdi Irmak in 2022 and 2023 are now joined by a third with the Amháin interpretation of "Eyes Up" retaining all the melodic poise of the original while generating a gorgeous, flowing progressive backdrop that shimmers with a stunning new lead motif and a host of original production material. Typically luxurious and decadent, delays and reverbs coruscate over each other in a waterfall of sound, reaching an epic denouement at the breakdown. Returning to the compelling rhythmic pattern of earlier phases, the Amháin remix plays out in majestic fashion.

A second remix sees another Australian resident work his antipodean magic. Quickly establishing himself as a sought-after figure within the Progressive House fraternity, Dave Leck has been producing high-quality work for over a decade since early work on Emotional Content Recordings, Crosslink Music and Mystic Carousel between 2016-18. Finding further success on Particles, the "Stardust", "Primal Connection", "Elevate" and "Opal" EPs showcased a series of increasingly high watermarks including remixes from Proton Music regulars, GMJ & Matter, Kamilo Sanclemente, Andrea Cassino and Erdi Irmak. Now debuting on Proton's flagship label, the Dave Leck remix takes "Eyes Up" on a stirring journey where the hypnotic lead melody provides the perfect backdrop for a swathe of additional production material to meander easily across a deep kick and off-beat hats. Building in momentum with new arp and twinkling motifs, Nick Muir's bassline makes a welcome return at the mid-point breakdown. Hitting the heights again in the second half, Dave's skill is to take the track in a new direction with its layered sonic textures and new phrasing, all while staying true to the "Eyes Up" sonic signature.

With laser-focus and colourful production technique, Nick Muir "Eyes Up" yet another hit, ably supported by Amháin and Dave Leck.

Surreal Madrid (Original mix)

Producing my best house track so far in Ableton Live was a turning point in my journey as a producer. The goal from the beginning was not to overcomplicate things, but to focus on groove, atmosphere, and emotion. I wanted the track to feel warm, laid-back, and immersive—something that slowly pulls the listener in rather than demanding attention right away.

The process started with a simple drum groove. In Ableton, I built the foundation using a clean kick with a soft low end, paired with a shuffled hi-hat pattern to create movement. Subtle swing was essential, so I spent time adjusting the groove pool and MIDI timing until the rhythm felt natural and human. Once the drums were locked in, everything else was built around that pulse.

For the bassline, I kept it minimal and deep. I used a simple synth patch, focusing more on filtering and automation than on complex sound design. Automating the cutoff and resonance over time helped the bass breathe and evolve, which gave the track a sense of progression without adding unnecessary elements. Sidechain compression to the kick was carefully dialed in to keep the low end clean and bouncy.

Chords and textures played a huge role in defining the mood. I layered soft house chords with subtle pads, using reverb and delay to create space and depth. Ableton’s automation lanes were key here—slow filter sweeps, reverb sends, and volume fades helped the track feel alive and constantly moving. Small details, like background noise and vinyl-style textures, added character and warmth.

Arrangement was all about patience. Instead of big drops, I focused on gradual changes and smooth transitions. Elements were introduced and removed slowly, keeping the listener engaged without breaking the chill vibe. Ableton’s Session View helped me experiment freely with ideas before committing to the final arrangement in Arrangement View.

The final stage was mixing and polishing. I kept the mix clean by cutting unnecessary frequencies and leaving space for each element. Light bus compression and subtle saturation helped glue everything together without sacrificing dynamics. In the end, the track felt balanced, emotional, and true to my vision.
