As individual artists, Argentinean pair, Nicolas Leonelli and Diego R are no strangers to the dance music limelight, now joining forces for their debut release on Proton Music with "Dreaming / Continuation". From a musical family, Nico's sound has seen him become a regular DJ across his homeland with residencies in Buenos Aires. His production work since a 2019 debut for WH Records has seen a steady stream of releases light up Traful, Clubsonica Records and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Meanwhile, fellow Buenos Aires resident, Diego R, began with DJ performances across the capital in 2016/17 before embarking on his production journey with the help and expertise of Andrea Cassino and interaxxis' Emiliano Folgar. Opening his account in mid-2020 with a debut on 3xA Music, Diego quickly went onto to see his work feature for the likes of AH Digital, Superordinate Music and The Soundgarden.

Opening their Proton Music account, "Dreaming" is characterised by a punchy kick, flowing percussive shakers and deep sub-bassline pattern. Building with ease, a smooth plucked motif wends its way across proceedings in hypnotic repetition, while a pitched down vocal phrase adds weight. Rising and falling with immaculate dancefloor knowhow, textured pads and spot effects add to the intrigue in a thoroughly modern progressive gem. "Continuation" quickly follows the same rhythmic and bassline narrative as its predecessor while a head-shaking clap brings percussive energy. Before long siren-inspired lead motif glides up and down as the mesmerising sonic collage builds with white-noise washes and eerie vocal flashes. A pounding bassline adds to the club-friendly prowess as a beatless breakdown pauses momentarily for breath before the track drops back into familiar rhythmic territory.

On remix duties, Juan Deminicis is another Argentinean needing no introduction as a long-term contributor to legion Progressive House gems on Proton Music with his distinctive soundscapes and unrivalled production techniques. Remixes for such celebrated names as GMJ, Michael A, Savvas and Luis León & Unseener have stood alongside original EPs such as "Life on the Moon", "Synchronicity", "Water" and "Cycles" across a 13-year period of endless highlights. Now remixing Nicolas Leonelli & Diego R, Juan Deminicis takes "Dreaming" in a typically luscious and smooth direction. A trademark groove of trance-inducing majesty lilts effortlessly across a near 7-minute interpretation as familiar melodic refrains from the original sit loftily across the top. Waxing and waning through its phases, the immaculate groove and rich pads create a superb textured soundscape.

Another Proton Music regular, Iran Khan has seen almost a double century of production credits grace a plethora of high-profile labels with 30 on Proton's labels, dating back to a 2017 debut on Particles. Graduating onto Proton Music in late-2018, remixes for Sebastian Sellares, Petar Dundov and dernis, the kid have been noticeable highlights with the "Organik" and "Sunsweat" EPs showcasing the UK artist's original work. Now returning once more, the Imran Khan reworking of "Dreaming" opens with a beautifully crafted atmospheric soundscape that glistens around a thumping kick and low-slung grooved percussion. A smooth bassline evolves out of the rhythm as a swathe of effects, with their roots in the Nico and Diego's work, coruscate across the left-right spectrum. Dropping the beat momentarily, the original's central melodic character makes its presence felt at the breakdown before joining with the powerful and dynamic rhythmic section through the second half.

Nicolas Leonelli & Diego R - Dreaming (Imran Khan Remix)

An artist with a rich production pedigree to his name, Traumhouse, returns to Particles with a new twin-track EP and "The Way It Is".

Able to point to a century of production credits over almost a decade, Hannover-based Traumhouse has found himself a regular on the likes of celebrated labels, Amulanga, Bekool Records and Songuara Tales. "Avem" found its way onto Proton Music in mid-2020, in collaboration with fellow countrymen, LADS, while a remix of Dmitry Molosh by the pair towards the end of the year was another notable highlight. A single remix graced Particles in early 2021 as LADS & Traumhouse reworked Li-Polymer's "Jacaranda" as the German artist now returns for a solo outing and "The Way It Is".

A delicate and emotive symphonic opening characterises the title track before a sumptuous beat and rich percussive top-line add groove aplenty. Evolving easily over its 8-minute duration, complementary melodies weave in and out of each other in warm, feel-good vibes before a powerful female vocal enters the fray at the mid-point. Carrying a poignant message, the phrasing adds depth and emotion before the stringed instrumentation of the opening section makes a return in the second half. The result is an exceptionally-well produced and complex melodic arrangement.

Partner track "You", provides the same rich melodic and vocal narrative as a rich rhythmic pattern and deep kick creates a beautifully imagined soundscape for the vocal to flourish. Carrying themes of romance, love and spiritual connection, Traumhouse produces a swathe of delicate melodic patterns, not least with a beautiful piano sequence at the breakdown that encompasses reverse-reverb samples and a hugely impressive set of production techniques that evoke feelings of bliss and contentment.

A single remix comes courtesy of Brazilian star, RIGOONI. A trio of remixes from 2022-23 saw the Brazilian shine on Proton Music as he reworked the likes of Savvas, Dabeat and progressive superstars, Trilucid, while a reworking of Rayomand's "Running Away" in August 2021 marked a single appearance on Particles. Now returning, the RIGOONI remix keeps the vocal so prominent in "The Way It Is" and wraps it in a new rhythmic envelope that bristles with dynamic energy and chest-thumping beat. A huge sub-bassline adds to the sonic depth while familiar melodic patterns can be heard through the string section. New melodic motifs make their presence felt as RIGOONI's additional production sits immaculately alongside Traumhouse's components. The result is a magical interpretation that explodes into a rhythmic powerhouse in the final movement with pitched toms and glissando lead.

A pair of new tracks from Traumhouse, with a gorgeous remix from RIGOONI, showcase "The Way It Is".

Beto Ruve - La Luz [M-Sol DEEP]

The incredible Henry Saiz makes a welcome return to the label with a spectacular double header.

Just the mere mention of his name sends dance music fans into raptures. Henry Saiz is at the pinnacle of the scene; signed to everyone worth a damn, soundtracking festivals, clubs and beyond across the globe. Behind the scenes, as a radio presenter, director and label head at Natura Sonoris, he's hard at work: a real musical hero with a humble manner and Latin ease that fans are drawn to in their droves.

Opening with 'Redes', muted beats develop into multi-textured flavours that reveal Henry's kaleidoscopic sound to perfection. Finding that balance between melodics and percussion, 'Redes' tells a story through sound as only he can. Delicate and detailed, you'll be hitting that repeat button every time.

'The Quest' begins slowly, entering the dance tentatively. Building in confidence, the beats hit with added weight as new melodies and percussive layers draw you in. Developing throughout, this is another example of a world-class artist at the height of his powers having the most fun you can have with your clothes on! Just sensational.

► Release Info:

Always at the vanguard of modern dance music, "Convergence" finds Mango Alley moving toward a new singularity. Melding diverse ribbons of music into a collective woven strand, a new project brings together a collection of the finest underground house, curated by the scene's most important tastemakers, channels and influential voices. Where the confluence of music and mind emerge, a powerful new force flows from within to create a vortex of sonic patterns that reach the very core of progressive music's ineffable quality.

Creating a resonant force that spirals outwards across the Atlantic, Canadian dynamism sees Super Progressive as the first progenitor of the "Convergence" series. An arrow to the heart of underground dance royalty, Quivver stands alongside artists from Europe and Australia, to Asia, North and South America, with another electronic storm. Dowden and Maze 28 combine with a wealth of Argentinean talent in chroma brilliance. Jares and Taylan's vivid shades of blue focus the mind in disconnect from the real world where Elliot Moriarty reveals his Rosario Dreams that fire the auditory synapses. Super Progressive journeys through rhythm and melody with poise, purpose and exacting sonic craftsmanship.
