TRACKLIST & INTERVIEW

Balance Selections 192: Mariano Mellino

BIO:

A veces nos encontramos con DJs que combinan talento con una personalidad cautivante, y Ricky Ryan está entre éstos.

Su sonido se distingue por una amplia variedad de estilos musicales, desde un cálido House y un Techno profundo hasta hipnóticos himnos de la pista de baile, siempre guiando al oyente a través de un paisaje sonoro espiritual, con su mezcla fina e impecable programación.

Ricky ha girado por el mundo, incluyendo eventos en la Winter Music Conference en Miami, el BPM Festival en México, ADE en Amsterdam, Creamfields en su ciudad natal Buenos Aires, y una honorable residencia en el espectacular Warung Beach Club en Brasil.

Su éxito se ejemplifica al presentarse en el programa Transitions de John Digweed, y al establecer un récord de oyentes simultáneos en Proton Radio, con comentarios de Sander Kleinenberg, Danny Howells, y Desyn Masiello para DJ MAG.

Ricky Ryan es también respetado por sus remezclas y producciones, estableciendo sus sellos discográficos, Sick Watona y Avangardia, con el apoyo de Sasha, Hernán Cattáneo, Guy J, y muchos más.

► Release Info:

From the Macedonian city of Serres in northern Greece, Simos Tagias has created a colourful musical history full of progressive house flair and melodic beauty. Returning to Meanwhile for a third original EP, the Greek artist dazzles with “Skyline / A Memory”.

Over the course of more than 400 production credits, Simos Tagias has continued to flourish, carving out a unique niche within the progressive house fraternity as his reputation and passion to his craft continue to produce a rich seam of valuable underground dance music. After a debut on Lynx Records in late 2012, Simos has gone on to feature on a plethora of high-profile imprints with a portfolio of original and remix material on the likes of Juicebox Music, Proton Music and Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music.

March 2021 saw a Meanwhile debut in the shape of the twin-track “Euphoria / Emotion”, before a second original EP in February 2023 found “Archaios / Geometric” taking centre stage. Remixes for Imran Khan and Alex O’Rion have been further notable highlights as Simos Tagias now return to the GMJ & Matter led label with a third original offering and the “Skyline / A Memory” EP.

Propelled powerfully forward with an unrelenting kick and smooth percussive groove, “Skyline” immediately hypnotises with ticking hats and subtly melodious woodblock phrasing. A sub-bassline enters the fray to add cavernous dancefloor depth, while delay-infused synth sequences meander atop the rhythm section. A sublime arpeggio enters the fray at the mid-point alongside a canopy of white-noise washes and textured pads before the track erupts into its third movement with full-bodied dancefloor character. An immaculate balance of rhythm and melody transpires throughout the second half as filtered phrasing makes “Skyline” an essential club offering.

A chunky bass sequence and heavy kick provide a strong and mesmerising opening to “A Memory”. A brooding, seething club monster, refined melodic passages and intelligent chord progressions create a fizzing and emotive energy that continues to build across the 7-minute track. As new counterpoint layers are introduced, the track’s multi-faceted nature continues to delicately expose itself like newly discovered memory fragments until the whole picture is revealed at the breakdown and into a satisfying denouement. The result is yet another classy work.

Rising once more to the upper echelons of the progressive house scene, Simos Tagias flies high via his “Skyline / A Memory” EP.
