An artist with over 10 years experience in the world of electronic music, Paul Deep has been a stalwart of the progressive house scene. A regular on the likes of Clubsonica, Sound Avenue and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, supported by Guy J, Nick Warren and Lee Burridge, the Argentinean artist hit the Proton Music headlines in September 2022 with his beautifully developed "Orchid" EP. Now returning to the label with another original offering, "Odyssey" is a typically deep and contemplative affair with a cavernous sub-bass groove sitting below a rippling percussive stream. Wending its way across an 8-minute journey, myriad textures and effects pave the way for a subtle melodic motif to evolve easily, complemented by a beautiful piano and keys sequence at the breakdown redolent in evocative splendour. Returning to the deep rhythmic roots of earlier phases in the second half, "Odyssey" is another majestic Paul Deep musical sculpture.

An artist requiring no introduction to the Proton Music faithful with such memorable releases as "Little Friend", "River Pond" and "Station", Dmitry Molosh is an artist who has continued to ride the crest of a production wave for over 15-years and some 650 credits. Consequently, the Belarusian has seen his music feature on some of underground dance's most esteemed labels including Replug, Sudbeat, Plattenbank and his own Proportion. Now returning to remix on Proton for the first time since 2020, the Dmitry Molosh interpretation is a spellbinding affair that continues the strong rhythmic flair of "Odyssey" before developing a new bassline groove and melodic counterpoint. Further extending the themes laid out in Paul Deep's original, Dmitry's skill is to create a scintillating progressive gem that sparkles at a sunlit breakdown with evocative melodic passion. Dropping back into the generous percussive backdrop in the second half, the Dmitry Molosh remix is a joy to behold.

A second remix sees, Zankee Gulati return to the Proton fold. A regular on Particles, not least through his 2018 "Breathe" EP, the Sydney-based star has found himself at the forefront of the modern progressive house scene with a string of releases on a host of elite labels that include the likes of Nick Warren's The Soundgarden, John Digweed's Bedrock and GMJ & Matter's Meanwhile / Meanwhile Horizons. Indeed, it was at the annual Amsterdam Dance Event festival in October 2023 that saw the Australian perform at the duo's sold-out Meanwhile showcase. As comfortable standing behind the decks as he is sitting in the studio, a single remix of Rick Pier O'Neil's "Imperial" in late 2022 is now joined by a second as Zankee Gulati transforms "Odyssey" into a broody rhythmic gem. Developing easily over its duration, echoes of the original float through its 8-minutes with familiar melodic refrains and atmospheric pads. Full of additional production material, complex textures, white-noise effect and muted arpeggio, they combine to create a deliciously rich and full-flavoured sound that resonates fully in the second half.

Creating a magical "Odyssey", Paul Deep is taken on a voyage of discovery with additional remixes from Dmitry Molosh and Zankee Gulati.

BIO:

Martin surely can be described as legend of Nuremberg‘s electronic music scene. In 1992, at the age of 16, he discovered his passion for electronic music and began playing vinyl on two borrowed Technics turntables. During that time he completed an internship at a local radio station (Radio N1), where he soon was recognized for his Djing. 

First bookings as „Martin Martinez“, his former Dj name, at various events of the radio station like „N1 Sunday Dancehall“ and the weekly radio show „N1 Club Night“ followed, where he not only played vinyl with lots of heart, but also took over the moderation of the radio show.

Especially as a resident of the „N1 Rave Signal“ events, which took place at Volksbad, an abandoned Art Nouveau-Style bath, he soon gained a large fan base with his captivating techno and breakbeat sets and weekly played on stage with famous musicians like Sven Väth, Westbam, Carl Cox, Earth Nation, Tanith, Resistance D, Jens Lissat, Oliver Lieb and many more.

To spred his wings wider and take his immense passion for Djing to the next level, he changed his name to Martin Groovic in 1995 and soon played gigs in all major techno clubs in Franconia such as Boot, Dolphin Club, Paisley Park, Forum, Lancia Odeon, DUB Club and the Octagon in Eltmann and invitations to clubs in Munich and festivals in Italy followed.

In 1996 he and two partners founded the legendary TOS Club, where he organized weekly club nights and after hours and quickly became a well known musician in the Nuremberg techno scene for blowing up the dancefloors with his unique music style. 

His characteristics as a deliverer of music are within the inexhaustible dimensions of sound, creating imaginary dream worlds within his listeners and taking them on a journey full of depth, magic and desires – always with an unconditional love to music. His repertoire ranges from rhythmic, spherical house and techno sounds filled with lots of emotion to downtempo and acid sounds with the right drive to dance the nights away.

In 1998, after two successful years of TOS, the club mysteriously burned down and Martin moved to Munich. In 2000 he founded his family and took a time out for several years. During his break the love to music still accompanied him in private, but now the passion for Djing and the wish to create musical suspense grew strong again. And so he‘s back, more motivated than ever, presenting new monthly mixes on his Soundcloud. In the near future Martin Groovic will surely be seen and heard again in the clubs.
