An artist at the cutting edge of the progressive house movement with an unmistakeable sound and unrivalled talent, Dmitry Molosh continues to hit soaring heights with each successive release. As prolific as he is talented, the Belarusian star has been a regular on Proton Music since 2016 with remixes for the likes of Kastis Torrau, Trilucid & Phil Martyn, and Andrea Cassino & Greenage. November 2020 saw the release of his debut original track in "Little Friend" with interpretations from Imran Khan and LADS & Traumhouse, as Dmitry now follows up with "Winds of Change". Redolent in trademark percussive groove and deep kick, a grooved bassline holds interest firm as a heavy bass stab adds juxtaposed power. Subtle melodic flourishes in the form of free-flowing piano, add delicacy and lightness of touch as all elements combine in the second half to create a stunning new addition to the Dmitry Molosh portfolio.

A welcome returnee to Proton Music, Matter has a host of powerful original and remix material to his name, both under solo and collaborative guises, making him a firm favourite with the label faithful. Through his "Pronoia" and "We Are Dust" EPs, the Australian shone a light on his creative talent in 2016 and 2017, while collaborations with fellow Melbourne resident, GMJ, have seen the duo light up the label with a trio of original EPs. Remixes of Dousk, Embliss and Michael A have shone a different light on Matter's talent as he now returns with a typically impressive sound, characterised by a whip-cracking kick and rolling groove. A trademark bassline full of power and emotion muscles its way across the low end as subtle melodic touches hint at elements from Molosh's original. A glorious progression, layered with textured pads, form the perfect foundation for the piano so redolent in the original to take its rightful place at the centre, as arpeggios from the Matter arsenal wax and wane across the top. Building to a rousing crescendo at the mid-point the sequence hits its stride again in the third movement to incredible effect.

Regular collaborator with Nick Warren and highly talented artist in his own right, Nicolas Rada is an artist whose talent and creativity continues to grow with each successive release. An accomplished pianist, the Argentinean has seen his star shine ever brighter in the underground dance universe with his work signed for the likes of Armen Miran's Hoomidaas, Nick Warren's The Soundarden and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music. A trio of remixes for Andre Sobota, Matter and Rick Pier O'Neil between 2017 and 2019 have lit up the Proton Music catalogue and it is now an honour to welcome back Nicolas Rada. With a glorious remix that glitters in an understated energy, an arpeggio rich in shimmering delay ripples across the 8-minute track. Combined elegantly with Molosh's piano parts, a collage of sounds and textures build and fall away amid a lavish rhythmic gem. A metronomic kick holds the melodic elements in check as a clicking, ticking percussive top-line adds groove aplenty in a reworking that showcases all Rada's skill, craftsmanship and technique.
