It has been a busy year for Luka Sambe, starting with the release of his album, ‘The Fundamental Transcience of Everything’ in January and a series of high performing releases on All Day I Dream, Souksonic, Vapour and more. With a rich history in the scene, Luka is fast becoming (if not already) the leading Australian progressive artist of his generation whose talent is fully stated in this new EP on Sudbeat!

Opening with ‘Combina’ warm, spacey sonics sit on top the beat patiently waiting the rush. Picking up pace, layers of melodics and icy pad sweeps create a tensive energy which peaks at the main drop. ‘Pari’ starts deep and sparse, more thoughtful than it’s partner. Melancholic leads and wistful pads combine for an early floors grower that’ll enchant. Rounding out the trinity, ‘Vertiginous’ is a punchy cut with spiky sonics and playful energy. Bouncy bass and insistent percussion keeps things moving along at pace while gelatinous stabs ricochet around the room.

Tryger Feat. Alexandra Pride - Where I Belong (Club Mix Edit)

An iconic figure within the underground dance fraternity for over a decade, Rich Curtis makes his Meanwhile debut with an iconic track in the shape of “Square Root (’21 Salute)”.

Rich Curtis has been a regular on an array of blue-chip labels over the course of a stellar career which has seen releases on Sudbeat Music, Tulipa Recordings, Proton Music and Replug. Indeed, it was the Cid Inc. owned imprint that Curtis made his 2010 debut with “Square Root”. Now reprising the track with a 2022 makeover, the “(’21 Salute)” is a rich and textured affair that retains all the melodic hallmarks of the original while updating the sound with beautifully woven new motifs and sparking arpeggio. Sounding bright and warm in the spring sun, Rich Curtis has breathed new life into his renowned track.

Another artist with an impressive portfolio of music to his name and reputation to match, Alex O’Rion has found his work allied to a host A-list imprints including the likes of Replug, Sudbeat Music and Guy J’s Lost & Found. A regular contributor to Meanwhile with 2021’s “Echium” EP and remixes for GMJ & Matter’s “Gauntlet”, The Dutch master returns to the label with a typically evocative offering. Making beautiful use of Curtis’ original components they are complemented with a slew of additional production material that extends his remix with spine-tingling new melodies that blossom in the breakdown and second half. A hefty rhythmic backdrop and ticking percussive groove add further to the powerful new interpretation.

Returning to remix duties on their ever-growing and increasingly popular label, GMJ & Matter once again feature on Meanwhile with a dazzling new reworking. Continuing an illustrious run of original and remix production credits that have helped shape their label, the Australian duo have cemented their reputation as elite progenitors of the modern progressive house sound. Sprinkling magic dust all over “Square Root (’21 Salute)”, a trademark groove immediately provides dancefloor desirability while new melodic patterns wander in beautifully coruscating patterns across the 8-minute plus offering. Themes resonant with Rich Curtis’ original are infused throughout, but GMJ & Matter’s skill is to turn them into distinct variations that evolve and develop with gloriously textured soundscapes.

The final remix sees Luka Sambe return to Meanwhile. An artist with a triple century of production credits to his name dating back to 2013, Luka Sambe has seen his reputation and stature grow strongly in equal measures. Winning plaudits for releases on a string of high-profile labels, music for Balance Music, Lost & Found and Sudbeat Music has seen the Australian consistently find himself in the upper echelons of the progressive and organic house charts. Now following up September 2020’s “Alive is the Meaning” and the “Spy Games” EP on Meanwhile Horizons a year later, the Luka Sambe remix glistens with a silky melodic sheen that sees its origins in Rich Curtis’ original while intelligently creating a new path. Familiar arpeggios shimmer atop pulsating new pads and twinkling synth phrases that come to the fore at the breakdown before opening up in the third movement. A deep sub-bass groove and flowing rhythmic backdrop complete a mesmerising sonic picture.

With a stellar cast on display including Alex O’Rion, GMJ & Matter and Luka Sambe, Rich Curtis and his “Square Root (’21 Salute)” EP is so much more than the sum of its individual parts.

Rich Curtis - Squre Root ('21 Salute) (GMJ & Matter remix)

@onedotsixtwo are excited to welcome back US legend Forerunners to the label for his third release with us, entitled 'The Watchers'.

Much admired across the progressive house spectrum and with an enviable catalogue of releases on numerous leading labels like Anjunadeep, Pure Progressive and Sudbeat, The Watchers definitely shows no slipping of the Forerunners gold standard. Brenden delivers a beautiful array of subtly blended melodies and effects, that are perfectly arranged over a meticulously crafted drafted drum pattern and unmistakable bass-line which solidify his incredible sound.

On remix duties we enlisted the super talented and good friend of the label John Cosani, who was the star of the show for our 50th release back in 2021. John's remix is an absolute power house of percussion and drive added to the bottom end and mid sections, whilst continuing to retain the essence and spirit of the original.

The Watchers

Presenting their second release of the year, Antrim’s Or Two Strangers welcomes Sebastian Sellares back to the label for a new EP. The Cordoba resident has been one of the imprints core artists since first appearing in 2019, with five original productions released over the course of a prolific sixteen month stretch. UK behemoth Anjunadeep, Cid Inc’s Replug Records, GMJ and Matter's Meanwhile and US powerhouse Proton Music have also served as landing spots for the Argentine's mesmerizing productions, while progressive music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren continue to champion his sound. With the year being highlighted by the recently released Replug vehicle ‘Sky Above’, a joint EP project produced alongside fellow countryman Ezequiel Arias, Sebastian now returns to Or Two Strangers with a three track showcase entitled ‘Blizzard’.

EP opener and title selection ‘Blizzard’ finds Sebastian operating at the peak of his creative powers. Fuelled by tough driving beats and layers of hypnotic percussion; it’s Sebastian’s stirring melodies which ultimately shape the piece into a memorable dance floor slam. Colourful cascades emerge leading into the main break, sitting in an emotional headspace and bringing with them trails of balmy atmospherics and effervescent effects, before eventually breaking off into a drop of rebounding rhythms and heartwarming chord changes.

Selection two ‘Elements of Nature’ lands with an equally impressive display of craftsmanship. Sebastian re-affirms his ability to tip a late-night dance floor over the edge, with wobbly grooves and hip-swinging percussion laying the foundation for misty atmospheres and smoky instrumentation. Sitting comfortably in an ethereal yet thought provoking space, thumping beats rise out of a soulful strum-led break into an ever-evolving, free form finale.

The EP’s final selection ‘Hypnotica’ finds Sebastian continuing to diversify his portfolio with a whimsical creation that’s nicely dialled for the sunrise hours. Deeper in design and highly stylized in delivery, its beautifully contoured, funk-fuelled groove sets the course for incandescent melodies and otherworldly harmonics to create a panoramic musical skyline. Often celebrated for his ability to create emotional themes, Sebastian has ventured further with the ‘Blizzard’ collection, into a time of true innovation, traversing a multitude of realms and dimensions within the progressive spectrum, while excelling throughout.

INFINITY STATE - COUNTING EP (INCL. ETHILLAS REMIX)[PHW239]
Release Date: 10 Oct, 2016 

It is another joyful moment on the PHW headquarters as we bring on another absolutely brilliant EP from one of the closest guys to the label, Infinity State. The US bound producer has been a force together with us for as long as we have been running our labels, and he definitely feels like a brother to us. So when we were able to strike a deal on this EP, we of course felt this is a must take opportunity. 


Bringing on 2 brand new originals, with both of them using the word “Counting” in them, the name of the EP was rather easy. 

First out is “Counting Clouds”, a truly melody driven production, full of sparkling life, warm moods, sweet vocal textures and a plethora of soundscapes built together from this truly talented guy. It has a really warm and inspiring approach ready to bring your crowds on. 

You will also get a welcome return for this production as well, as we see the return on Norwegian producer Ethillas who once again join back on the label. As we so often seen from him in the past, he deliver another progressive monster rework, filled to the top with warm and creative textures to give the “Ethillas vibe”. We are so happy to see him back with us again! 

The second original, named as “ Counting Waves” is another sensational production from Pil where he is building up that lovely textures and mood as we so often see from him. If your search is a good mood, driving melodic arrangements and and a slight hands in the air feel, then you have another smash hit from this true talent. Awesome work guys!
