A pairing of considerable experience, Luke Brancaccio & Gai Barone return to Proton Music with a brand-new original track in the shape of "Got to Get it Started", alongside remixes from Michael A and Orsen.

A powerful duo with a rich combined history stretching back more than 15 years, the UK / Italian axis has accounted for some of the finest underground house releases. First coming together in August 2021, their "Lust Stop / Letter to Her" EP shone a bright light on Guy J's esteemed Lost & Found imprint before going on to feature on the likes of Selador, Renaissance Music and Sudbeat Music. A 2023 remix of Verche for Particles was then followed by a debut Proton Music remix of dernis the kid's "Maybe feat. Clara Jo" a year later. Now returning with a debut original offering, "Got to Get it Started" is a powerful progressive gem that hits hard with thumping beat and ticking hats before a smooth female vocal proclaims the track title. A cast of hypnotic melodic elements builds with filtered intensity with a pulsating arp and hefty bassline to keep the energy high. A glorious piano phrase supplies old school vibes at the breakdown while cadenced vocal snippets evolve with the hypnotic array of pitched synth arps in the second half to reach a stirring crescendo.

Michael A has been at the vanguard of the Proton Music sound since his 2017 "Bright Hope" EP. Over 60 production credits later and the Belarusian has seen an ever-evolving sound feature on the likes of "Aura Tears", "Geometria" and 5 incarnations of the popular "Fantasy" series. Remixes for such iconic figures as Pole Folder, Dousk and Trilucid have also contributed to a sought-after production talent as Michael A reworks "Got to Get it Started" in typically majestic fashion. A huge thumping beat opens proceedings while a syncopated bassline echoes Luke Brancaccio and Gai Barone's original. An immaculate percussive groove supplies dancefloor sensibility as the remix builds seamlessly. Pausing for breath at the breakdown, familiar melodies from "Got to Get it Started" shine through as they intertwine with Michael's original production material. The result is a seething, progressive gem that is another commanding reminder of Michael A's talent and passion.

Legendary figure, Dan Orsen, has been at the progressive scene's top table for over a decade. Responsible for some of the finest modern underground house tracks, the UK-born, Austrian-based artist has been a regular on Sudbeat Music, Perspectives Digital and a raft of releases on Cid Inc.'s Replug where he heads up A&R. Nine remixes for Proton Music since a 2016 reworking of Mondkrater has seen Orsen interpret the likes of Roger Martinez, Dimuth K and GMJ & Matter, while a 10th Proton Music remix now sees him produce a driving mesmerising interpretation. Playing handsome tribute to the sonic overtones and vocal cadence of the original, Orsen transforms it into a spiky, coruscating, acid-powered affair that gradually builds in energy using the melodic crescendo of the original to magnificent effect in the second half. The result is a dramatic and impressive departure from the traditional Orsen sound.

A dancefloor classic, "Got to Get it Started" sees Luke Brancaccio and Gai Barone jumpstart their Proton Music sound with glittering remixes from Michael A and Orsen.

PREMIERE: Alex O'Rion - Lucida [Solis Records]

A legendary figure, Paul Deep has been at the vanguard of the underground dance scene for over a decade. Now he returns to Proton Music with the brand new "You Do" EP.

Showcasing his music on such glittering imprints as GMJ & Matter's Meanwhile, Henry Saiz's Natura Sonoris and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, the Argentinean has been a regular on Proton Music since 2022 with his 3-track "Orchid" and June 2024 "Odyssey" original EPs. Returning for the first time in over a year, "You Do" is a typically smooth and polished affair with chest-thumping kick, rolling percussive groove and ticking hi-hats. Add in a subterranean sub-bassline and deliciously hypnotic revolving motifs that expand with glistening delicacy at the mid-point, and the track reveals the extraordinary quality of Paul Deep's production talent.

On remix duties, Roger Martinez is a seasoned, "trance inducing" DJ and production maestro who has been part of the Proton Music roster for more than 15 years since a 2008 debut and the "Retrospect EP". Remixes of Matt Rowan and Moonbeam followed before 2017's "Dream State" was a notable highlight in a glittering portfolio which later saw remixes from Stas Drive and Orsen. Returning with a masterful reinterpretation of "You Do", a powerful tribal groove is immediately in evidence before mesmerising melodic phrases filter into sonic range. A sustained bassline melody at the breakdown is a spine-tingling highlight that perfectly complements the arpeggiated melodic sequencing, while the driving tribal rhythms hit hard once again in the second half alongside an intermittent vocal sample.

A Proton Music newcomer, Juan Ibanez is no stranger to the modern Progressive House scene. Hailing from the north-western province of La Rioja, the Argentinean producer fuses deep and progressive sounds with his music finding its way onto such blue-chip labels as Juicebox Music, Mango Alley and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Now adding Proton Music to that resumé, the Juan Ibanez remix of "You Do" is a sophisticated gem characterised by an intricately programmed rolling groove that lays the perfect foundation for a magnificently deep bass groove to evolve underneath haunting new melodies and the central refrain of Paul Deep's original. As the bassline evolves into new directions, so the melodies follow in effortless patterns as the breakdown explodes into progressive breakbeat territory with whispered vocal sample, before a second half of dizzying arpeggio joy.

Paul Deep finds his magical touch once more with "You Do" ably abetted with remixes from Roger Martinez and Juan Ibanez.
