An artist with a storied history within the Proton Music canon, Juan Deminicis has been a regular contributor to the label's catalogue for over a decade. Now returning, "Cycles" represents another slice of progressive heaven with a delightful twin-track offering.

Beginning his Proton Music relationship with January 2012's "Downshifting", an array of original material has since flowed from the fingertips of Juan Deminicis. 2013's "Behind the Sun" soon followed before a 5-year hiatus then resumed with November 2018's "Life on the Moon", June 2020's "Synchronicity" and July 2021's "Water / Rebellion".

A regular on an array of blue-chip labels including Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas and Guy J's Lost & Found, the Argentinean star has been flying high in a rarefied atmosphere for almost 15 years.

The "Cycles" title track opens with a sublime trademark rolling groove that wends its way easily atop luscious pads and breathy vocal ‘ahhs'. Crisp hi-hats provide a dynamic vibrancy while a syncopated bassline adds dancefloor energy. Pausing at the breakdown a beautiful piano sequence flows in subtle beauty, combined with atmospheric field recordings. Easing back into the club-friendly groove in the third movement, new melodic sequences enter the fray to create a stunning musical masterpiece.

With its heavy beat and traditional off-beat hi-hat pattern, "Samhadi" soon bristles with emotion as a female vocal sings delicately across proceedings. Perfectly accompanied by twinkling delayed keys, a lilting melody drifts across the early phrases. As the rhythmic elements emerge unencumbered at the mid-point, a beautifully sculpted piano motif creates a moment of melancholy before evolving into the second half. Alongside the vocal phrase and other melodic elements, the track flows to a natural conclusion in a glorious display of production craftsmanship.

Returning to Proton Music, Juan Deminicis' "Cycles" continues to oversee an ever-impressive musical evolution.

Every time Guy J releases his solo material on Lost & Found, the world of music lovers is ready for a treat. He's not only one of the leaders of the global scene but a musical innovator pushing the limits of studio techniques and borders of abstract emotional content. His latest conceptual masterpiece consists of two tracks ranging in length from over 7 to almost 11 minutes and a total run time of over 18 minutes. The opening track, Last Standing, blends the progressive motifs with an out-of-this-world anthemic breakdown. The piece is simultaneously melodic and nostalgic but manages to deliver a new, previously unheard edge to the technical execution of the production. The closing track, Fire, uses temperamental arpeggio resonances, constructing a mystical soundscape for a joyride into a higher state of perception. Guy’s sonic skills work as a hypnotic tool. The new material is not only a blessing to the dancefloor but also a home- listening delight. Do you seek inspiration, optimism, and confidence in music? Push the limit!

Stereo Underground has blazed a trail in the electronic dance industry since discovering the music as a teenager and working in a record store. A prolific producer, he is signed to everyone from Lost&Found, UV to Balance via Sudbeat and Einmusika.

‘Ineffable Moment’ is almost beyond description! Wildly analogue and warmly hypnotic, it bursts from the speakers picking up energy throughout, pausing briefly to catch its breath. Cascading arps create the most caressing cacophony such that you’ll need to have it on constant repeat all day long! ‘The Second’ opens in dramatic style. Cinematic pads finally give way to a deep beat and haunting melodics and develop into a huge show-stopping finalé.

Reinvigorating their collaborative partnership Dmitry Molosh and Michael A return to Cid Inc's Replug Records with 'Integral'. Hailing from Belarus, both Dmitry and Michael sit amongst progressive music's elite guard. Their respective solo productions continue to earn play and support from the genre's premiere tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, while also landing them releases on Hope Recordings and Sudbeat Music. Also calling Replug a comfortable home, Dmitry and Michael now return to the label with their first collaborative project in almost four years.

Much loved for their exploration of all things progressive and groovy, the Belarus duo exceeds expectations here, delivering two stunning pieces of music beginning with the title selection 'Integral'. Set in motion by a warm, chunky foundation, its robust core comes up quickly, with layers of finely tuned drums, crunchy rhythms and squelchy synths uniting in a fiery sonic comet. Shifting energy into the main break, heartfelt harmonics and fragmented melodies gently blanket the electric underbelly, resonating on a higher frequency as tasteful modulation rises and the groove drops for a chugging finale.

Operating on a similar sonic plane is the companion piece 'Twelve Days'. Otherworldly in nature, tough beats and dark stabs anchor the journey as the piece flows through a series of pulsating rhythms and mind-bending effects. Continuing on an unpredictable storyboard, ominous overlays and percussive flashes highlight the first act, perfectly setting up an icy break. Adding further intrigue, a wave of tranquil arps provide an effervescent foundation for the duo's dystopian soundscapes, before building to a granular sizzle as a rush of drums ignites a powerful crescendo. It caps off a hugely successful project from two of progressive music's most talented artists, further solidifying Replug's place at the top of this burgeoning genre.

Release Info: 
Cid Inc’s Replug Records welcomes Interaxxis back to the label for a new two-track EP. Since making their label debut in 2016, Emiliano Folgar and Martin Kazez aka Interaxxis have found a comfortable home on the Finnish imprint. The Argentinean duo have since gone on to provide an EP and single for the label, while also being primary contributors to Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music, Nick Warren’s Hope Recordings and Guy Mantzur’s Plattenbank Records. Now following a collaborative remix with Lost & Found alum Sahar Z and their latest Sudbeat offering ‘Bleakness’, Interaxxis returns to Replug with the much anticipated ‘Bowry’. 

Beginning with the title selection Interaxxis explores the darker realms of their highly regarded repertoire. Atop a tough, rolling foundation comes arpeggiated rhythms, buzzing stabs and striking percussion, resulting in a unique contrast of character and groove. Effervescent effects and stream-like sweeps continue to build the narrative, ultimately setting the course for an enthralling lead melody. Tense yet cosmic, its dramatic nature elevates across the main break, flowing through expressive modulation, before an exhilarating crescendo spearheads a charged finale. 

The EP’s second and final selection finds Interaxxis collaborating with fellow countryman Guille Cornejo aka Antrim. Also a Replug alum, the Cordoba resident made his label debut in 2019 with the well received ‘Trip To Red’. As a long-time favourite of progressive music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, Guille also boasts an impressive resume, highlighted by releases on Sudbeat Music, Hope Recordings and his own Or Two Strangers imprint. Now coming together for their first ever joint production, Interaxxis and Antrim round the release out with ‘Isolation’. Its dark beginnings prove intriguing, as punchy beats, perfectly contoured bass and striking percussion unite for a robust rhythmic core. Devilish effects further it’s fiery flair, before hopeful overlays and nostalgic chord changes shift the mood into emotive territory. Building through an array of impressive artefacts, the centrepiece captivates with a rare unpredictably, before eventually accelerating to a tasteful crescendo and effects laden drop. It rounds out an impressive return to Replug for Interaxxis and Antrim, who continue to be two of the world’s foremost progressive music talents.

Mike Isai delivers a wonderful 2-tracker on the ever-reliable Hope Recordings.

'Pillars To Butterflies' is a hypnotic and energetic workout, with its bubbling bassline and haunting pads creating a wonderful soundscape, where haziness meets energy. Some plucked strings add some drama to proceedings while the pads keep up the suspense. A proper peak time gem.

Keeping the energy levels high, 'Sumeria' follows on wonderfully, with a slightly darker slant, where an air of moodiness is added to by its mesmerising vocal. No nonsense solidness with an air of mystery here. Big!
