soul tracks

A redoubtable talent with a vast array of music to his name, Andre Sobota returns to Proton Music with another twin-track original EP, "Under the Radar".

An artist always at the top of his production game, Andre Sobota consistently dines at underground music's top table. With the rare ability to appeal to a wide audience with his distinctive rolling grooves and immaculate melodic phrasing, the Brazilian has lit up the industry with a portfolio that is second to none. From remixing Coldplay and Rihanna for behemoth EMI to a magisterial collection of music for the likes of Anjunadeep, Perfecto, Zerothree and microCastle, Sobota has continued to inspire a host of up-and-coming producers with his immaculate attention to detail, hard work and craftsmanship that translates into almost 600 production credits.

Accounting for more than 50 of those credits over a decade, Andre Sobota has been a regular on Proton Music since a debut remixing Bastards of Funk & Sonic Union in November 2009. A month later, the ground-breaking three-track "Outside" EP appeared to critical acclaim and remixes from Ryan Davis, Kassey Voorn and Shingo Nakamura followed. A reworked version of that iconic debut EP appeared in 2014 with the aptly titled "5 Years Outside", while "Fragments", "Concluded", "Unmute" and "Alter Ego" have all gone on to showcase the outstanding production values that represent the Andre Sobota approach to sound design and musical narrative.

Now returning to Proton Music, "Never Ending" is a beautifully arranged track that bristles with muted pads and chest-thumping kick before a growling bassline groove erupts into an exquisite sonic space. A trademark offbeat rolling percussion adds subtle dancefloor flavour while a shimmering, delayed and freeform melody coruscates gently across proceedings, enveloping the listener in rich and warm harmonics. Building imperceptibly into the second half with extended melodic interplay, the result is another triumph.

The title track opens with a whip-cracking kick as a delayed arpeggio and warm pad rises gently in open-filtered fashion. Ticking hi-hats and clicking clave add percussive intricacy, while a subtle bass cadence locked to the rhythmic groove extends "Under the Radar". Hitting the breakdown with a stripped back arpeggio phrasing that swims across the left-right spectrum, the track enters its second half with a continuation of the gloriously smooth melodic flow that showcases Sobota's sound design abilities. By making sublime use of a sonic palette that blends effortlessly in tones, the Sao Paolo resident paints another memorable picture across eight-and-a-half minutes of sonic joy.

Another twin-track EP of the highest quality finds Andre Sobota flying "Under the Radar".

Surround Us With Love

Surround Us With Love (Lucas Rossi Remix)

The eponymous James Gill returns to Sudbeat with an incendiary three-tracker, the ‘Mind Cave EP’, where the the Jersey-born, native New Yorker’s trademark of groovy style shines through on all three cuts.

Opening with the title track, ‘Mind Cave’ a bumpy groover bristling with mysterious FX and an earworm lead synth, we are quickly fast tracked to the small hours, where reason and modesty take a holiday and wild, freaky and free come out to play. ‘Cascata’ takes things one step further. Solid drum arrangements soon made way for clever synthwork and powerful emotive vocal FX. This is late night NYC in full effect. Closing out the EP is the melancholy ‘Red Ochre’. Far deeper and thoughtful, its quiet elegance is a thing to behold as the gloves come off in the second half and the synths go wild.

Henry Saiz - Love Mythology (Ozgur Ozkan Unofficial Remix) Remastered/Free Download

Our 30th chapter comes as a prestigious and unmissable pack that renders homage to a past EP of the Sudbeat factory: Japanese Snowbell by Hernan Cattaneo and Soundexile. This release has a very particular flavour and it is composed of two tracks that will also be playlisted in Hernan Cattaneo's new compilation for Renaissance.The first track of the EP is a remix signed by one of the most talented producers of the global electronic scene, a name that has been part of the Sudbeat family since its dawn and that boasts releases on the best labels out there: the Tel Aviv born Guy J. Once again his unique and personal touch is easily recognizable thanks to a solid swinging groove in which background oriental melodies rise naturally and fluently up until a dreaming breakdown in which energies seem to soften. But it's just an illusion. The drop is behind the corner, ready to make this hymn-like melody explode in a way you won't easily forget.On the B side, Hernan Cattaneo and Soundexile refresh their original track slowing down the beat and creating a syncopate rhythm, perfectly fitted with the original main melody and enhanced by a hot bass line with an acoustic touch, the warmth of which creates a unique atmosphere in this downtempo track that once again proves Hernan Cattaneo's and Soundexile's great skills in the studio.

The rapidly thriving onedotsixtwo label launches its 2020 campaign with yet another essential release, this time from the multitasking main man himself, Tripswitch, who has masterminded an incredible refreshing of his classic ‘Box Fresh’ track, having enlisted the studio skills of Emi Galván, Forerunners and Nicolas Rada, alongside him on remix duty.

“‘Box Fresh’ was a really significant track for me when it first came out on the ‘Propulsion EP’ in 2014. It was one of the first progressive tracks I wrote where I felt I’d successfully struck the right formula between my own production style, which was more rooted in epic, euphoric chillout, and an up-to-date progressive house sound.” - Tripswitch

The original track’s significance (represented by the 2020 Remaster in this new package) grew exponentially when it became one of the first Tripswitch tracks (after his remix of Seamless ‘Castle In the Sky’ on Section Records) that Nick Warren and Hernan Cattaneo really hammered in their sets and was thus pivotal in establishing Tripswitch on the progressive path, ultimately leading to the birth of onedotsixtwo. 

“I always felt it deserved more credit for what it had opened up for me, and a 2020 re-release on onedotsixtwo with a reimagined remix version and big remixes from some of my favourite producers is a fitting way to bring it back!” – Tripswitch

With an ethos to seek out and feature the finest world-class talent within the underground progressive house scene, Tripswitch has teamed up with rising Argentinian superstar Nicolas Rada (who is making a huge impression on the scene right now) to open proceedings. This creative dream team’s ability to tease out the essential original mind-blowing beauty of ‘Box Fresh’ with their deeply delicious 2020 ReFresh is quite astonishing. By composing a magnificently subtle, tantalizing, soaring, new melodic masterpiece, they set the stage perfectly for this truly outstanding remix package.

Another Buenos Aires resident, the exceptionally multi-talented Emi Galván, brings his own unique vision to ‘Box Fresh’. Emi has earned a reputation as a kind of crown prince of uplifting electronic music and here he injects his infectious blend of bounce and funk to proceedings to launch the track to a higher level of energetic abandonment, juxtaposing irresistible melodic hooks with euphoric percussive flourishes to create an absolutely monstrous dancefloor experience. Emi’s remix has already been cited by Nick Warren as one of the biggest tracks of his DJ sets.

Arizona USA’s Brenden LaBonte (aka Forerunners) makes a welcome return to onedotsixtwo with his outstanding remix. A sophisticated interwoven blend of skippy percussion, meandering bassline groove and lush layers of hypnotic melody, create a marvellous drifting sea of tranquil beauty. It is a wonderfully subtle journey from the masterful DJ/Producer who always creates a stir amongst discerning underground progressive house fans worldwide

To conclude this unmissable package, the original joyous iridescence of ‘Box Fresh’ has been tweaked to glorious effect for the 2020 Remaster and, if you haven’t already discovered its wondrous uplifting musicality, prepare to be mightily impressed! Holding ever true to the onedotsixtwo proper progressive philosophy, ‘Box ReFresh’ once again delivers on the label's manifesto, adding another essential release to their vital catalogue featuring some of the most forward-thinking and well-produced progressive house out there. 2020 starts here!

LUCAS GRAIN Between Us

001 between us
002 between us movement machina remix
003 between us integral bread remix
004 between us tantum remix

A debut representing Mango Alley's annual homage to Amsterdam, Lucas Grain returns to fill the spaces "Between Us". Rapid-fire melodies bounce off clean marble surfaces in bright reflections of metronomic power alongside the constant ticking of brittle hi-hats. A juxtaposition of eerie vocal treatment strikes a chord somewhere between beauty and sadness.

A synthesis of Finnish innovation and familiarity sees Movement Machina return. Throbbing bass intent highlights vocal phrasing in a jumble of effected treatments where the sonic space lights up in glorious originality and infinitely pitched percussion. Spanish flair rises from the sound of Integral Bread – common refrains from between us radiating a pulsating evolution of sound in acetylene-torch lead and vocal contrast. Innovation highlights a new rhythmic pattern of spellbinding beauty and resonance.

Ice cold German brilliance shines a new light between us in techno machinations. Tantum redefines the techno landscape with a kaleidoscope of rippling energy that charges the space with each passing movement. Vocal pitching goes with the grain to reflect previous passions.

Andre Sobota - Never Ending (Extended Mix)

Paul Deep returns with more signature sounds on the 'Arishem' EP.

It's been nearly a year since the sensational 'Dogma EP' came out and in that time Paul Deep has continued to astound and entertain. His trademark style enveloping the listener in a warm blanket of melancholy angst which never lets go. 

Basing all the tracks on iconic cartoon characters from US and Japanese counter-culture, first up is 'Arishem', a sleepy beast of a tune that slowly awakens into a monster. Deep and satisfying, the kicks open the track up as melodics creep into earshot. Next is 'Ashema' follows on apace. Emotional mind music for the soul. Marvel-ous! Finally, 'Dohku' weaves its sonic tale. Upbeat and engaging, the melodically rich layers create a tapestry of sound and emotion.

An artist with a long association with Particles, Espen now returns to the label with his "Late Night Snack". Two original tracks are partnered with remixes from Finland and the USA.

A career that spans over 15 years, Espen Gulbrandsen has consistently found himself at the upper echelons on the electronic dance movement with support from the likes of Armin Van Buuren and Solarstone. Using his Espen moniker from 2007 brought similar success on likes of Silk Music, Stellar Fountain and Lost Language. July 2019's "Until Tomorrow" marked an impressive original EP on Particles following on from remixes for Omar El Gamal and Rick Pier O'Neil and Desaturate. Re-emerging for the label some eighteen months later, "Schuko" is a wonderfully crafted affair that reveals itself delicately through smooth off-beat percussion, filtered arpeggio and reverb-laden vocal breaths. A rolling bassline adds depth while white-noise effects and spot effects swirl across the stereo spectrum. A chorus of pads and evolution of the central phrase alongside counterpoint melodies adds a deft touch. "Late Night Snack" continues the deeply resonating power of its predecessor as muted arp and wave-like pads open up to reveal a delicate melodic structure beneath fizzing hi-hat urgency. Flowing keys ripple across the mid-range with complex ease, changing in structure and sonic architecture as they go. The result is an immaculately crafted affair.

From his home in southern Finland, Ultravizion has struck a chord with a clutch of impressive imprints and his deep house sound. An array of impressive productions has seen the Finn appear on such impressive imprints as The Purr, RYNTH and Pole Folder's Reworck. February 2020's "Yakagir" for Suprematic was also a notable highlight. Making his Particles debut, the Ultravizion remix retains the intricate melodic detail of "Late Night Snack" while a new grooved motif reveals itself with gentle hypnotic phrasing. Glorious pads rooted in Espen's original meander across the stereo range with ease as layers of stratified sound pay tribute to the original while harnessing Ultravizion's impressive production prowess with deep kick and percussive power.

Making a bang with his debut for Glasgow Underground in September 2017 remixing Paolo Mojo, Jayden Klight has continued to carve out a niche with an impressive selection of original material for L'enfant terrible, Nie Wieder Schlafen and Seven Villas. October 2018's "Departure" and 2019's "Contact Six" EPs were prominent high points for the Pablo Bolivar led label. Reworking "Late Night Snack" with typical aplomb, the Jayden Klight remix revels in delicate broken beat rhythm that lends itself perfectly to the new melodic phrasing and rich sonic palette presented by the US star. As impressive as it is inspired, the remix harks back the golden era of progressive breaks in the early 2000s, championed by the likes of Benz and MD and Digital Witchcraft. The result is a mature and impressive offering.

A pair of new tasty tracks plus remixes from Ultravizion and Jayden Klight are a powerful reminder of Espen's talent.

With their first collaborative project Alex O'Rion and Antrim debut on Roger Martinez's Higher States with 'Imagine'. Hailing from the Netherlands and Argentina respectively, Alex and Antrim have found favour amongst progressive music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, while finding a home on Sudbeat Music, Hope Recordings and Cid inc's Replug Records. Now presenting their first ever joint productions, Alex and Antrim present a two track artist showcase via Roger Martinez's Higher States.

Alex and Antrim show the fruits of two artistic minds coming together on the title cut 'Imagine'. Fluid and inviting, it's well contoured groove is full of character, shape and warmth; while a band of hip-swinging rhythms put your emotional centres on high. Ghostly fragments add an air of anticipation, perfecting setting up a cascading lead theme which effortlessly weaves it's way in and out of the framework. Lying gently below surface, it's emotive charm is hard to resist, juxtaposed against a storyboard of timely effects, before rising to prominence following an expertly executed break.

The companion piece 'Round Trip' follows a similar sonic ethos but with a dubbier quality overall. In crafting a smooth rolling groove, the cross-continental duo have fashioned another powerful foundation, complemented with hypnotic pulses and percussive drive. Ethereal in design and poignant in delivery, harmonic phrases descend over the framework, carrying the piece into a hopeful second act, before getting washed away in a rush of beats and drums for a pulsating finale. It caps off a hugely successful collaborative project from two of progressive music's most beloved talents, making for another outstanding offering from Roger Martinez's Higher States.
