In December 2018, Erdi Irmak embarked on another chapter in a successful music career with his "Hidden Arcadia" series on Proton Music. Fast forward to 2021 and the talented Turkish artist presents the sixth incarnation of the series with three new original tracks and a pair of remixes from Ireland and UAE based artists making up "Vol. 6".

"In Depth" is a typically impressive opener as a delicate percussive structure creates a central pillar from which smooth melodic branches grow organically around it. Gently pulsating pads add depth as an enveloping melodic trope creates a warm sonic blanket. "Far Apart" immediately showcases Erdi Irmak's trademark groove as a laidback rhythmic foundation replete with crunchy bass and rolling beat, paves the way for free-flowing melodic lines to meander across the 8-minute piece. Textured pads and white-noise effects complete a powerful narrative. The third original track sees "Around the River" delight with an intelligently worked cadence rippling across proceedings before syncopated synth phrases sit in perfect harmony. Developing with ease, a breakdown crescendo creates the sonic environment for the second half to become a hypnotic organic house triumph.

There are few more iconic names within the underground dance fraternity than, Silinder. Able to point to a plethora of Proton Music releases that include 2012's "Corrupt", 2013's "Solas" and 2014's "Basement", a clutch of remixes for the likes of Oliver Lieb, Derek Howell and Andre Sobota are now followed by a standout interpretation of "Nowhere Land". Originally part of "Vol. 5", the Silinder remix immediately impresses with its innovative use of melodic themes resonant in Erdi's original as a relaxed groove flows out of the 8-minute track with a hint of Lemon Jelly evident. Over an evolving sonic landscape, evocative chord progressions and the vocal cut central to the original, create a rich tapestry of sound woven to an expert conclusion in the second half to create a dynamic and colourful picture.

An artist who has seen his reputation grow steadily over the past 18 months, Ejaz Ahamed has seen a select crop of releases feature on the likes of Stellar Fountain, Perspectives Digital and OLD SQL. A quartet of remixes for Particles, not least in November 2020's reworking of Juan Deminicis' "Synchronicity", now sees the rising Dubai star make his Proton Music debut with a glorious reworking of "The Floating Bridge of Heaven". Originally appearing on "Vol. 4", the Ejaz Ahamed remix opens with strong framework of heavy beat, straight hi-hats and cavernous bassline. Unconstrained by the rhythmic backdrop, melodic motifs from the original float delicately in hypnotic patterns in juxtaposition to a rising filtered bass sweep. The result is a glorious combination of traditional dancefloor structure and unencumbered organic melody.

A sixth instalment sees Erdi Irmak joined by Silinder and Ejaz Ahamed to create a perfect "Hidden Arcadia".

Release Date : 2021-07-19

Incroyable Music mark their first release of 2021 with a family focussed compilation 'IɅ X IV’ welcoming the core Incroyable group alongside a selection of hand picked companions.

Theus Mago’s ‘El Tiempo Se va’ eases you into the collection and is the epitome of ambient, gripping you tightly throughout as the spectacle of timbres cascade around you. Concret’s ‘Homo XYZ Chapter 2’ follows, driven by quirky keys and a plodding march that carries you effortlessly throughout its entirety.

Fabio Vanore’s offering ‘Desire’ brings a true hardware sound to the table as toplines spiral around yet more throbbing bass and steady rhythmical backbones. ‘Dreams of Corduba’ shows a real maturity behind Fennec & Wolf’s work as he ups the energy and intricacy behind the melody.

’Shuttle’ bu Atelier Francesco then darkens the mood with wobbling bass synths and marching percussive patterns. Abrao’s ’Nosso Momento’ is a blend of rich latin inspired percussion and deep swellings pads whilst reverb soaked vocals dance around the foundations.

Vallant utilised a sublime selection of vocal work with ‘Burning’ - an enchanting production featuring delicate keys and echoing synth climaxes before another label key player Bellville rounds off the compilation, providing the haunting melodic tech in the form of 'Goddess of Dawn’ - a track that is set to take you on one hell of a journey through eerie pads and chugging grooves.

The latest release from Clubsonica Records welcomes Claudio Cornejo back to the label for a new EP. The Argentinean artist has been one of his country's brightest progressive music talents. Either operating in solo capacity or as one half of Analog Jungs, the Cordoba resident has long been a favourite of progressive music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren. Having first appeared on Clubsonica as part of Analog Jungs in March of last year, Claudio now returns to the label for his first solo offering 'Tuareg | Musai', alongside remixes from Andrea Cassino and Jonnas B.

Beginning with the pulsating hypno grooves of 'Tuareg', Claudio marries fluid rhythms with clustered melodies and radiant atmospheres. Evolving percussive arrangements and charming effects add nicely to its mediative pulse, before shifting energy into a captivating break. Understated in nature, the centrepiece delights with shimmering arrays and gentle percussive splashes, perfectly complementing emerging swells as the groove drops for a charged finale. The companion piece 'Musai' proves to be a perfect complement with its thrilling groove and emotive lines. Luminous fragments and devilish stabs dance amidst a maze of driving percussion, while impassioned chord changes elevate mood as the main break approaches. Tense and meditative in equal measure, the interlude saturates your senses with an evolving arp taking centrestage, perfectly anchored by warm bass swells, before reaching a gentle crescendo and driving final movement.

Making his label debut and providing the lone interpretation of 'Tuareg' is Andrea Cassino. Beginning with his highly regarded Cassino and Laben project and eventually shifting to his solo work in 2009, Andrea lays claim to an impressive discography highlighted by releases on Sudbeat Music (as Nocturna w/ Danny Lloyd), Balkan Connection, meanwhile, Proton Music and Soundteller Records. The world's top tastemakers have also noted the Italian's production prowess with John Digweed, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Guy J all chiming in with support. Now presenting his first project of 2021, Andrea debuts on Clubsonica with a smooth rendition of 'Tuareg'. Engaging from the outset, momentous kicks and rhythmic pulses converge for a fluid foundation, while hypnotic percussion and swirling sonics bring texture to the groove. Building an emotive narrative across the first act, nostalgic melodies and hazy harmonics unite for impassioned moments. Sitting at the heart of the journey, the centrepiece delights with its timeless appeal, where billowing bass swells rise amidst a cloud of colourful effects, as the beats drop for a haunting finale.

Returning to the label and providing the lone interpretation of 'Musai' is Jonnas B. A staple of Colombia's progressive underground for the better part of a decade, the Medellin resident has earned play and support from the world's biggest DJs, most notably Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren. A familiar face to Clubsonica fans having provided five remixes for the label since making his debut in 2015, Jonnas now returns to the Colombian imprint with a powerful interpretation of 'Musai'. Taking a cue from the original Jonnas crafts a shapely groove and rolling rhythmic core. Gaining momentum across the first act, the piece flows through emotive chord changes and whimsical arps, before shifting energy into a haunting break. Otherworldly in nature, its hypnotic state of mind melts down into a wave of mallet-like cascades and cinematic swells, percolating with each successive loop, before a timely drop reveals the pulsating groove for a magical dance floor moment. An inspired remix from Jonnas which rounds out a stunning return to Clubsonica for Claudio Cornejo, an artist who continues to be one of Argentina's finest progressive music talents.

Swedish born from Turkish decent, Ruh (SE) returns to Ready Mix Records for release number 236, a gorgeous pair of deep, melodic and organic original cuts.

Meaning 'Soul' in Arabic, Rûh's mission is to 'evoke positive emotions through sound', and he certainly hits the mark with a charming opening track 'Karanteller'. Led by warm piano chords and subtle rhythms, there's something dreamlike about the fragments of flute melody and almost banjo-like arpeggio that make this compact, almost folksy electronic gem utterly irresistible.

The EP's B-Side, 'Viper', summons more of an upbeat, atmospheric deep house groove, with sublime hangdrum melodies and stirring string chords building toward a truly heart-stopping neo-classical breakdown which is sure to melt even the hardest of hearts.

Enjoy!

Moscow and London combine in elite cosmopolitan splendour as Blanka Barbara and Mango's "Starwalk" shines brightly in the underground dance firmament. Shimmering synths light up a brightly coloured musical universe as they pitch and bend, while a cavernous kick and deeply felt bassline provide a warm and vibrant energy. Meanwhile, Fabri Lopez illuminates from the banks of the River Quinto with heady concoction of bassline prowess and percussive cadence. Familiar melodies ripple in the background amidst sonic splendour and resplendent new motifs.

Roaring into life, The Wash creates a new tension from the banks of the Danube. Glittering pianos sparkle against a densely textured Viennese swirl and powerful, fast-paced groove. Clouds of sound coalesce in new sonic patterns over familiar musical landscapes. The heart of Europe gives way to sprawling Maharashtra state where beauty and subtlety combine via the sound of Haen in a new "Starwalk". Evocative motifs shine brightly in an organic texture of ingenuity and native influences above a bassline and chord progression full of melancholic emotion.

Tracklist:
01. Nick Warren & Black 8 - Freedom Call (Original Mix)

Release Info: 
Longstanding dance music stalwart Nick Warren inaugurates the launch of Nātiv Records with Freedom Call / Electro Shock. The two-track EP, set for release on 27th November, includes a collaboration with rising Egyptian talent, Black 8.

Speaking on the formation of the release, Nick Warren described that he was “overjoyed to have both Freedom Call and Electro Shock coming out on Nātiv Records. Freedom Call - which I wrote with Black 8 - has been massive for me in my sets for over a year. Electro Shock is my homage to early Electro records and I was honoured that Martin Buttrich agreed to mix it for me.”

Things get underway with the Freedom Call, as tribal-inspired drums converge on an iconic nineties vocal sample. Smooth pads reside alongside rhythmic key changes, before subtle kicks help move the beat along. Electro Shock finishes proceedings gracefully, as a warming piano roll accompanies staggered snare patterns and surreal, dream-like synths.

A time-honoured talent in the electronic music realm, there are few as well-versed in the art of performing than Nick Warren. A&R for the esteemed Hope Recordings, Nick’s output has spanned multiple decades in a career that has seen him support headline acts such as Massive Attack, as well as hold a residency at clubbing institution Cream. In more recent times, Nick’s keen-ear for production has landed him acclaimed releases on labels such as John Digweed’s Bedrock Records and the iconic Global Underground.
