An artist with an impressive recent history, Chicago born, Greece based, Savvas, returns to Proton Music with the brand new "Crescent Moon" EP. Making his label debut with a trio of remixes between 2019 and 2021, a debut original EP followed in February 2022 via "Reminisce" as three original tracks plus remixes from RIGOONI and Vridian showcased an exceptional offering. With another triptych to his name, the "Crescent Moon" title track is a beautifully evocative piece that evolves majestically over its 9-minute duration. Hypnotic keys and counterpoint melodies fire off each other as strings, pads and effects take their turn vying for listener attention in the resulting rich opener. "Wonder' quickly creates a melancholy vibe with its delicate piano sequences that extend in organic fashion across a rock-steady kick and shuffling percussion. Beautifully imagined vocal phrasing adds to the air of sadness and delicacy as a smooth arpeggio provides another graceful tone in the latter stages along with strings and sympathetic melody. Sparkling arpeggiated sequences immediately highlight an upbeat air in "Lullaby" before they drift away at the mid-point allowing for strong rhythmic elements to come to the fore. A further combination of meticulously engineered elements sees a second half suffused with poise and lightness of touch.

Juan Deminicis has been a staple of the Proton Music catalogue for more than a decade. Since a 2012 debut, the Argentinean has released five original EPs that have seen such stellar offerings as "Behind the Sun", "Life on the Moon" and July 2022's "Cycles". Remixes for GMJ, Mark Slee and Michael A have seen equally impressive production work as Juan Deminicis now returns with a typically assured reworking of "Crescent Moon". Through a trademark rolling groove and intricate rhythmic framework, the central motif of Savvas' original is reworked in mesmerising fashion as a cast of new production material join forces, not least in a piercing new melodic phrase and whispering vocal cut that make a play in the second half. Organic house elements flow through the 7-minute interpretation with flute and traditional instruments combining as Juan Deminicis once again demonstrates why his production work is so sought after.

Another Proton Music regular with such celebrated releases as "Divine", "Losing Part of Me" and "Asante", Andrea Cassino has been at the forefront of the progressive house scene for almost 15 years. Remixes for Kamilo Sanclemente & Dabeat, Rudy, Michael A and GMJ have also been notable highlights in the Italian-born producer's star-studded portfolio, as he now returns to remix Savvas. Characterised by an effortless bouncing bass groove and immaculately syncopated percussion, the Andrea Cassino interpretation of "Wonder" retains some of the core melodic themes while turning it into a rolling, club-friendly gem. Sweeping string passages and the haunting vocal prevalent in the original make their presence heard, particularly at the atmospheric and evocative breakdown before the mesmerising groove takes hold once more.

As a Launching EP, LA Foresta Recordings welcomes Weird Sounding Dude. Hailing from Bangalore, India.
He emerged from his country's electronic music landscape in 2013.

Now continuing on that upward trajectory, Weird Sounding Dude launches La Foresta Recordings with a two-track showcase entitled
'Blue Water Lilly'

EP opener and title selection 'Blue Water Lily' finds Weird Sounding Dude operating at the peak of his creative powers.
Fuelled by rhythm and groove; its warm basslines, crunchy rhythms and tight percussive arrangements resonate on a transcendent level.
Energetic and melodic across the first movement,Sitting in a cosmic yet thought-provoking space, a stunning effects narrative captivates as the interlude evolves,
flowing through mind-bending modulation, eventually spearheading a groove-centric drop and charged finale.

Moving forward to selection two Weird Sounding Dude continues his dancefloor-minded approach with 'B84' Landing with an equally impressive display of craftsmanship,
the Indian plants' multiple explosions of serotonin through hopeful overlays,
clustered effects and disorientating projections. Clever co-actions make for a break that is both dynamic and tense, flowing through flickering percussion and pyrotechnic effects,
before confidently returning to the groove for a sweeping aerial finale.

Art Vibes returns with a winter release brimming with euphoria and profound progressions, aiming to transport you to other dimensions through organic rhythms and ethereal melodies. We're delighted to release the Elsewhere EP by Cahelo.

French producer Cahelo has contributed two original tracks to the release, "Elsewhere" and "Bananaquit," which have been beautifully reimagined by DSF and Mass Digital.

Cahelo's EP begins with "Elsewhere," an otherworldly anthem featuring Caribbean percussion and soulful vocals that lead into a warm, frothy, and sweet drop. With its shamanic melodies and radiant bells, this track becomes an inescapable source of joy.

On the other hand, "Bananaquit" is a track that never lets you go. Its playful, sweet, and fun bass line is blended with dreamlike samples, ghostly vocals, extraterrestrial strings, and spiritual pianos, culminating in an epic climax with a powerful lead synthesizer.

DSF's remix of "Elsewhere" exudes astral qualities, making it the perfect track for escaping the outside world, whether you're dancing in a crowded club or relaxing in the comfort of your own bedroom. This remix is bursting with energy and precision, creating a progressive atmosphere of party and frenzy.

Mass Digital has put his signature sound to work on "Bananaquit," crafting a lunar piece that takes us through universes of color, utopian civilizations, and pleasant memories of the future. His remix is a tapestry of sonic details and hidden melodies, filling us with both calm and energy at the same time.

This release, like those that have come before it on the label, will go down in history as a treasure chest of sounds filled with magic, optimism, and a desire to embrace 2023 with open arms.
