This is the story of a guy who has been releasing one quality progressive house release after another for a couple of years now already, but strangely enough has never released on Manual Music's main progressive house imprint. This story is about to end, because we're proud to welcome Roberto Traista on board.. finally!

The Romanian born has built up quite a diverse discography over the course of his production career with appearances on Agara Music, Sixtysevensuns, System Records, BC2, ADRO Records, Clinique Recordings and Opendecks Records all standing out. 

Roberto’s productions have always been quite intriguing. From his unique design which conjures up images of futuristic wastelands to strong groove components that always keep things focused on the dance floor. As with most Roberto Traista productions the framework is tough and filled with punch. There is always a definite sense of hope coming from his works within the melody and it drives his productions to a classy conclusion. 

Here on his brand new 'Last Night EP' he drops two brand new tracks in his trademark sound, complemented with a warm timeless dreamy remix by Yuriy From Russia and a more punchy minimalistic effort by Jaramillo.

Nicolas Ruiz - Vision (Lucas Rossi Remix) [Hernan Cattaneo Resident 351]

After his unofficial remixes for Depeche Mode, New Order and MGMT, @dj-riza is back with a new interpretation. This time he reworks the lovely 'Round and Round' by Ariel Pink.

"I have discovered Ariel Pink's music at the end of last year and from first listen it took my attention so much, that I start to listen to all his albums several times and find some really interesting songs and parts which could be sampled and made into a dancefloor version. I have picked Round and Round, because of the nostalgic and calm vibe. Sampling the main loop of the whole track, filling it up with Ariel's phrases, then expanding it into a hippie kind of breakdown. I have picked my synths for this one very carefully, just wanted some underskin tones and here and there some atmospheric fillers as I didn't wanted to ruin the main vibe. Hope you enjoy this one!"

Rick Pier O'Neil - Landscape (Lucas Rossi Remix) [Hernan Cattaneo Resident 365]

Deep in the Black Forest, Mio and His Flute has begun to cause a stir with his innovate music. Returning to Particles, he creates a feast for a "Barbecue on the Moon" with remixes from Turkey and Argentina.

Making his debut on WAYU Records with the stunning "Responsibilime" EP in February 2018 the Freiburg resident has had a breakthrough year, after a Particles remix for Rudy in June followed by an appearance on the best-selling Visceral compilation series in July. "Barbecue on the Moon" opens with the bass-heavy "Woodwatch" that revels in a squelching low-end groove that anchors effortlessly to ticking hi-hat and dominant kick. A glorious organic flute melody makes its presence felt, hovering across the third movement in freeform fashion before the title track enters the fray with its ethnic percussive cadence and intricate melodic motifs. With smooth glissando phrasing creating a languid floating effect combined with copious amounts of reverb, the track is aptly titled. "Salo Panto" continues the focus on rich melodic interplay that is a staple of Mio's work as hypnotic arpeggios and sustained pads combine with strong off-beat claps and hi-ha pattern. Sliding riffs and rippling sequences meld across the third movement with Mio and His Flute creating a distinctive and unique sonic picture.

Istanbul resident, Erdi Irmak, needs no introduction to the Particles faithful. Responsible for a plethora of original music since a debut remixing Kobana and Mario Hatchet in May 2013, the Turkish star has produced moments to remember, not least in his landmark "You're Either Guilty or Not Guilty" full-length album in August 2014. December 2017's "Zero" EP brought the year to a close with a bang and Erdi Irmak has lost none of his craft and quality as he returns to Particles with another outstanding remix. Reimagining "Woodwatch", Irmak, creates a rich, low-slung groove that is the perfect vehicle for gently pulsating pads to sway across the eight-minute piece. Using Mio and His Flute's intricate melodic motifs to wonderful effect, the combination of hypnotic groove juxtaposed against flowing melodic lines and intelligent additional production material has created another moment to savour from Erdi Irmak.

Drawing inspiration from the likes of Warren, Digweed and fellow countryman Hernan Cattaneo, Marcelo Paladini's performances at the clubs of his Mar del Plata home have provided the perfect grounding for a production career that has seen him feature on some the underground dance scene's leading imprints. A regular on Balkan Connection Soundteller and Superordinate Music, Paladini's remix of Zankee Gulati's "Breathe" in May 2018 witnessed a strong Particles debut as he now returns to the label to rework Mio and His Flute. "Taking on "Salo Panto", Paladini's interpretation revels in dynamic percussive groove and syncopated bass pattern that supply the perfect vehicle for a series of shimmering synth lines to filter into sonic range. A stepped arpeggio sequence modulates and pans the stereo spectrum as intelligent use of Mio's original components create a sublime new interpretation.

Three new tracks and a pair of remixes from Erdi Irmak and Marcelo Paladini have ensured the fire is well and truly lit for Mio and His Flute's "Barbecue on the Moon".

PREMIERE: Township Rebellion - November (Original Mix) [Stil Vor Talent]

After a year of doing this version of Innerbloom i would like to share it with all of you and thank you for the great support you always gave me.

Innerbloom was one of the tracks that inspired me the most since i heard it. The lyrics of the track are one of the most beautiful I've read, and together with the original structure they make a perfect combination.

But from my instinct, i thought i could bring something more, but always respecting the magic the songs has right from the beginning.

Hope you enjoy.

A vital cog in the Proton engine since 2008, Andre Sobota celebrates a decade of music. This past summer, the Brazilian aptly returned to Proton Music where it all began. Now, as 2018 comes to a close, Particles gives “Robots” life once more. With his third remix for the flagship label, Matias Chilano lifts up Argentina’s hearty prog house scene even further. Joining reworks of Dousk, Derek Howell, Namatjira and many more underground heroes, the Cordoban composes what could be his highest profile remix to date!

At the "crossroads of shape, sound and expression," United Colors of Rhythm offers a new perspective on electronic music. For the second time in less than a year, the imprint loads its pallet with many shades of Indie Dance! The second volume of its self-titled comp features both foreign and familiar talents. Eclectic roster addition Nova Materia closes the release with “Speak in Tongues.” Utilizing the original’s "found sounds," ALI X x XIMENA also make their label debut. As the founding member of Azari & III, Ali’s roots mixing house and rock certainly run deep. The duo’s remix thus evokes grainy synths, eerie vox and more lively instrumentation.

As one of Japan’s most prolific electronic music producers, Hideo Kobayashi specializes in soulful deep house and floor-smashing techno. Back in March, he launched his own label to push these divergent sounds. Standard Music thus serves as a model for “quality, functional and beautiful” above all else! For its next release, RIWIN takes that sentiment to a whole new level. The Balinese musician and spiritual healer once played in popular Indonesian bands called Pahama and Tropical Transit. When not riffing with the latter, he can now be found mixing electronic music. Rising from his home studio, “Bali Cloud” gushes smooth atmos, soft percussion and balearic guitar.

Premiere: RIWIN - Bali Cloud [Standard Music]

MI.LA - Sun [Exotic Refreshment]

Available 31, October on https://soundcloud.com/oleeva-records featuring https://soundcloud.com/padreuk

Each release on Oleeva Records involves careful tact and loving intention. Even its album covers are original works of art! The label now presents one of its most "authentic” offerings yet. “Possible Worlds” illustrates the evolution of a true legend. Thanks to classics like “Sacred Cycles” and “Wavespeech,” Pete Lazonby is synonymous with the early 90’s rave scene. Decades later, he sheds those dark, progressive labels in favor of more refined tastes. Classified as Hip-Hop / R&B, “Professor Firefly” ends Padre's debut album on a very playful note.

Balkan Connection South America hasn’t skipped a beat since 2008. In fact, it's maintained a monthly schedule ever since! The Argentinian label’s remarkable 433rd release now welcomes back Francesco Pico. Nearly one year after “Smoothie," the Dutchman delivers another glistening original track. East Cafe also continues a long-awaited comeback to the Balkan Connection family. Like a summer remix of Isaac Differding, the Hungarian applies distinctive "refinement, detail and depth” to “Running in the Cloud.”
