Returning to Proton Music after a successful 2019, Kamilo Sanclemente & Dabeat present a bright new vision with "Beyond the Future, Vol. 1".

From Cali, south-west of the Bogota capital, Kamilo Sanclemente & Dabeat have been pivotal in advancing their country's underground dance movement. Rising out of the Cauca Valley, the duo has been responsible for a swathe of high-profile music. Both successful artists in the own rights, Sanclemente has amassed over 450 production credits since a debut for Suite 7 Records in 2013, going on to feature on some of the most prestigious independent imprints including Massive Harmony Records, Univack and Nick Warren's "Balance Presents the Soundgarden" in late 2018. A relative newcomer to the underground scene, Dabeat's solo work has seen him feature for BeatFreak Recordings, Pollen Flug Records and Freegrant Music.

Joining forces, the collaborative pairing has consistently hit the headlines with their distinctive brand of progressive house, lighting up the likes of Mango Alley, Hope and UV. January 2019 saw a Proton Music debut in the shape of the outstanding "Spiral Patterns", further enhanced by a remix from Brazilian maestro, Andre Sobota. A remix for Peter Makto & Gregory S's "Purple Rain" was another notable highlight in May as Kamilo Sanclemente & Dabeat return with the first in a series of EPs that follow in the footsteps laid by Erdi Irmak and Rick Pier O'Neil, as they start out "Beyond the Future".

Opener, "Zemula", is full of rhythmic prowess as a strong percussive groove lays the perfect foundation for rippling arpeggios and siren synth lead to course through the 8-min offering. Ambient effects and sweeping risers add additional texture to a wonderful club floor-filler. The complementary tracks of "Feline" and "Ausar" delight with their languorous rhythmic patterns as grooved plucks and clever bassline sequences add rich syncopation. Unhurried lead lines ripple across proceedings to create flowing melodic patterns while atmospheric vocal phrases add depth. The driving kick and off-beat percussion of "Asgard" provides immediate dancefloor character, tempered by stratified layers of arpeggiated sequences and rising pad progressions that reach a crescendo in a tension-fuelled breakdown. Rhythm and melody then combine once more in the third movement to maximum effect.

With its seething atmosphere, "Aerology", is a mesmerising collage of grooved bassline and melodic motif that provide a superb counterweight to intelligently programmed percussion. Adding to the aural melange a relentless sequence builds post-breakdown to strong effect before "Magma" spews forth with bristling power and dancefloor heat. Flowing hypnotically through arpeggiated phrase, a counterpoint chord progression provides weight before a grooved melodic line opens up in the second half, creating a dynamic and powerful climax.

Six tracks of the highest order see Kamilo Sanclemente securing the present while looking firmly "Beyond the Future".

I wanted to let people know , that it’s a time of love, people unite with each other, to give all my personal energy and motivation to go ahead , live happily, understand, that there is no splitting in world nations. The most important thing in my mind was to reach people, who are frustrated, socially unactive, to make them believe that they still can do a lot in this life and be happy around their families, brothers and sisters.

The song was recorded in Riga, which is a capital of a country, named Latvia. This is where I am originally from. I decided to people, which live in capital suburbs, look ahead in the sky and breath in more fresh air, then often around the “concrete jungle” they live around.



The music…
From my new music track you can expect a lot of energy, my life understanding, the things that I care and worry about every day. The great thing about my track is that it comes with everyday life activities of simple people. Whether you are in a shop, fitness club, swimming pool, or just walking in the park with your girlfriend, never forget that the nation is here to help you. The special thing about this music track is that it meant to be heard all over the world, people can succeed a lot when they unite.

 


LONDON…
My place of birth was Latvia, Riga. For the last 2 years i’m a permanent resident in UK, living in London. The people around suburb , where i live, mostly like rock music, old classics, like Queen, UB40. The great place to go in London is a Hampton Court, the King’s Palace, which is a tour in a history for all day. I definitely suggest to visit it for everyone, once they got in UK.

Music Industry…
I think that the World Music business is very different, there are so many unknown talents in each country of the world. Music has no borders and what’s most important thing it has no limits. You can perform, influence others, be proud that people are heard, respect your hard work.

The pros are that with a help of social networks, people can find you, help you to promote your music, think with one mind with you. so that the audience would describe it as a hit.

The cons is that it is hard to start being in music business, you need to have understanding of how to record the sounds and put the right words, so that the audience would describe it as a hit. I think it’s even more psychologically, this is where you think not only about yourself.

I would love to get 5 minutes alone with rapper Jay-Z….
I admire his strength, time planning, how he unites the nation with his songs.
