NURE Deathco

002 deathco morttagua remix
003 deathco shahin remix
004 deathco lads remix

Sonic shards of light pierce slate grey skies to illuminate a new talent; a Mango Alley debutant sees Nure emerge through "Deathco". Muted motifs cascade in vivid colour crashing in waves to reveal hidden depths in an ocean of white-noise.

Unrivalled Brazilian flair finds Morttagua generating power and raw energy though intelligent craftsmanship. Twisting and turning, arpeggios wax and wane against driving rhythmic force that whips up a storm. A brooding bassline presence extols German passion as Shahin finds a different path. Breathing new life into Nure, still waters hide a vessel of controlled precision and musical mastery. 

Ahead in an unrelenting voyage of discovery, LADS create another landmark of rare beauty. New melodies lap in gentle waves over atmospheric whale song to create a vivid and innovative new sonic landscape.

Nico Szabo - Stampi (Original Mix) [The Soundgarden] TEASER

A modern music phenomenon with his distinctive sound and prolific output, Erdi Irmak has established an exciting platform for his music with the "Hidden Arcadia" series on Proton Music. Now in its fourth incarnation, "Vol. 4" resonates with the series debut as a clutch of new original tracks mark another milestone in the Turkish artist's portfolio.

Retaining a vision for the future with a combination of cross-cultural influences that permeate through his music in a blissful wave of synthetic and organic sounds, Erdi Irmak continues to operate at the cutting edge of underground dance music with his unique approach and distinctive sound. A regular on the likes of Movement Recordings, Where The Heart Is and Balkan Connection, the Istanbul native is quickly able to harness thoughts and ideas into a rapidly growing collection of original music. Thus, his "Hidden Arcadia" series on Proton Music has come a long way since its debut release in December 2012.

"Lost Youth" opens Vol. 4 with its hypnotic percussive framework and flowing melodic passages that meander across eight-minutes with consummate ease and lightness of touch. Waxing and waning as beats drop and reappear, the relaxed groove makes for a sublime opener. Continuing with style, "The Floating Bridge of Heaven" provides the opportunity for occasional vocal phrases to pepper the nine-minute piece with a dynamic narrative that carries the track. Coupled with a rich array of musical sequences, a central arpeggio sits proudly atop proceedings giving a strong mesmerising character that works well alongside the more freeform elements. A strong kick and trademark acoustic tom percussion find "The Moment" blending elegantly beside emotive piano chord progressions. With its soulful character and rich musical narrative, Irmak's inherent craftsmanship shines through with ease as counterpoint elements blend effortlessly to create a wonderful whole.

An underlying deep house vibe infuses "The Things That I See" with its heavy kick and traditional off-beat hi-hat pattern. Acoustic guitar ripples across proceedings in partnership with intricate piano phrases as the track picks up pace with its dynamic percussion and vocal flourishes add further intrigue in an imaginative piece. A gloriously layered percussive gem finds "Vent" delighting with its combination of grooved bassline elements, plucked guitar and shimmering arpeggio. A strong glissando lead and tremelo character and adds weight and interest as all elements come together in a groove-laden joyous whole in the third movement. "Wake Up Call" draws Vol. 4 to a conclusion with its smooth bassline sequence. Shuffling hats add subtle urgency while a vibrato monophonic lead and gated analogue pad supply glorious depth. Hitting the heights in the latter stages, the combination of melody, rhythm and bass fully showcases Erdi Irmak's extraordinary talent.

Six new tracks find Erdi Irmak very much at the fore with his "Hidden Arcadia, Vol. 4".

Hidden Arcadia, Vol. 4

Erdi Irmak - Vent (Original Mix)

Back for a fifth volume of his increasingly impressive "Hidden Arcadia" series. A trio of new original tracks are accompanied by remixes from Argentinean and Ukrainian debutants.

Opening "Hidden Arcadia, Vol. 5", "Leaving" has a vibrant opening that revels in rich percussive top-line and hypnotic bass note and groove. A strong beat acts as an anchor for a series of free-flowing melodic motifs to entwine, producing a rich sonic tapestry that erupts post-breakdown in trademark cultural references from Irmak's Turkish homeland. Continuing the intricate percussive groove, claves, claps and hats span the stereo spectrum in "Nowhere Land" as a smooth analogue lead motif adds a touch of intrigue. Ethnic vocal cuts enter the breakdown in atmospheric and rhythmic fashion, blossoming in the latter stages alongside an angular new motif. Emerging from a traditional house pattern, an array of percussive hits sparkles across "Walls" as a chugging, rolling groove emerges through a sequenced bassline. A reverb-laden lead line coruscates across proceedings with ease to add depth while a dynamic new rhythm makes its presence felt in the second half with rapid-fire toms roll and legato siren effect.

A new name to the Proton Music artist roster, Lisandro began his production career with his "December Rain" for Flug Lab's "Flug VA Vol. 1" in January 2018. A clutch of releases has followed for such esteemed labels as Hoomidaas, Dream Culture and Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas as the Argentinean now debuts on Proton Music. Reworking "Echoes in Time" originally part of "Vol. 2", the Lisandro remix retains the melodic character of the original by using the key melodic motifs central to Erdi Irmak's original and developing these with subtle new melodic flourishes at the breakdown. A strong new rhythmic framework introduces a dynamic flavour to Lisandro's interpretation in an accomplished remix.

Another new artist to Proton Music, Nopi is a modern musical phenomenon who sprung onto the underground house scene in March 2019 with "Lemanto" on Pipe & Pochet. Going onto achieve over 40 production credits in the subsequent year, the Ukrainian artist has gone on to feature on the likes of Kindisch, Nie Wieder Schlafen and When We Dip XYZ with a stunning array of original material. Making his Proton Music debut, a remix of "Nothing Lasts" from "Vol. 1" is an incredible new version that bristles with emotion and musical talent. A rolling percussive groove with shuffling hats provides the perfect backdrop for a sustained bassline to create a mesmerising backdrop. Changing the key of his remix, Nopi has developed a melancholic air that fits immaculately with Irmak's vocal phrasing, while a new coruscating string lead creates atmosphere in abundance as it swims across the left-right spectrum. Evolving throughout, new tropes emerge post-breakdown as themes from the original resonate throughout in a work of rare beauty.

New music from Erdi Irmak and remixes from Lisandro and Nopi have ensured "Hidden Arcadia" continues to reveal beautiful sonic landscapes.

Hidden Arcadia, Vol. 5

Erdi Irmak - Walls (Original Mix)

2020 sees Ormatie returns to Proton Music after an eight-year hiatus with a brand-new original EP in the shape of "Taifun / Uragan". Remixes come from Irish and Moldovan stalwarts.

An artist who burst onto the progressive house scene in 2008 with a remix of Andy Moor & Markus Schulz for the latter's Coldharbour imprint and the three-track "Emoke" EP for Nick Warren's Hope, Ormatie rose rapidly to the highest echelons of the underground dance industry. Further work for Hope and a clutch of credits for Proton, including July 2009's "Birthdays" and September 2010's "Mon Etoile" saw continued success. Now, the Russian returns in 2020 with a new twin-track EP. "Taifun" is full of trademark intricate rhythms and immaculately programmed melodic elements. Swaying gently across the stereo spectrum, a filtered arpeggio wax and wanes, while smooth pads speed and slow with sublime synchronised LFO. Building elegantly into the third movement a bassline progression and emotive chords provide the perfect vehicle for a swathe of counterpoint melodies and searing lead line to flourish. "Uragan" opens with deep kick and fizzing percussive top-line that fills the aural senses. Before long an arpeggio works its off-kilter magic alongside muted stabs that ping-pong left and right. A glorious bassline adds weight and layers of melody paint a vibrant picture from a wonderful sonic palette.

Gavin Mulhall's Silinder alter-ego needs little introduction to those familiar with the Proton Music catalogue. Always in-demand with his flawless production work and innate talent, the Irish artist continues to carve his name into the annals of underground dance music. Since his "Corrupt" debut in September 2012, 2013's "Solas" and 2015's "Basement" have both showcased outstanding original work, while remixes for Andre Sobota, Terry Grant and Dousk has further showcased Silinder's talent. Returning after an August 2019 reworking of Imran Khan, his remix of "Taifun" is an intelligently crafted affair with its chunky rhythmic framework and innovative use of original components. In trademark fashion, a superfluity of original production material infuses Silinder's work, replete with delayed-drenched motifs and reverb-coated keys. The result is a perfect example of why his name is still held in such high regard.

Alex and Andrew have found much success with their two-headed dragon alter-ego. Through Lanvary, the duo has consistently hit the heights with their inventive musical ideas and unique sonic identity. Regulars on Particles since 2015 with the "Micromegas", "Penumbra" and "Leviathan" EPs, 2017's "Venus" and October 2019's "Everything You Feel", lit up the Proton Music catalogue with vivid original work. Adding remixes for Andre Sobota, Hot TuneiK and GMJ & Matter to their burgeoning portfolio, the Lanvary interpretation of "Taifun" is energy-driven affair that packs a punch with wonderfully grooved bassline and rhythmic backdrop. Smooth melodic flourishes that owe their origins to the Ormatie original, glitter before a new motif form the Lanvary production studio emerges in jaunty fashion alongside sympathetic pads to create a highly innovative and impressive reworking.

A powerful storm front has thrust Ormatie back into the limelight with "Taifun / Uragan" and remixes from Silinder and Lanvary.
