Continuing to add exciting new talent to their roster, Tash's Movement Recordings welcomes Callecat to the label for their debut EP. Based in the Netherlands and comprised of Dutch artists Koen and Gijs, Callecat first emerged in 2018 with their 'Olietanker / Planetarium' double a-side offering via 8Music. Immediately recognized for their deep progressive sound, the duo found success in relatively short order, delivering projects for some of the genre's finest imprints in 3rd Avenue, Magnitude Recordings, Mango Alley, MNL and One Of A Kind, while also sharing the stage with Guy J and Nick Warren. Now, continuing on an upwards trajectory, Callecat adds Movement Recordings to their resume with 'Alien Takeover', alongside remixes from Weird Sounding Dude and Liam Sieker.

Returning to the label for the lone interpretation of 'Alien Takeover' is Weird Sounding Dude. As one of India's rising musical mavericks, Weird Sounding Dude has emerged from his country's electronic landscape as a premiere progressive house talent. Long a favourite of genre tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Guy J and Cid Inc, the Bangalore resident often touches on disparate themes and sounds, straddling the divide between intergalactic design and groove-centric hypnotism. With a career that now spans a decade, Weird Sounding Dude has compiled an impressive discography with standout releases via Anjunadeep, Hoomidaas, The Soundgarden and Sudbeat Music. Movement Recordings has also been a landing spot for the scene veteran, with a contribution to the label's 'GLBLMVMT3 – Exploring India' collection marking his debut in 2020, a project which would lead to a 2021 remix of Not Demure and his 'Fallen Poet' EP from earlier this year. With recent releases for Mango Alley and Songspire landing in impressive fashion, Weird Sounding Dude now makes a welcome return to Movement Recordings with a huge rendition of 'Alien Takeover'. Taking inspiration from the heady original, the Bangalore resident remodels the track into an electrifying slice of progressive house. Complete with striking vocal fragments, hyperactive rhythms and a forest of prophetic designs, it's an adrenalized energy-rush for the ages - one where Weird Sounding Dude lands sounding better than ever.

Clubsonica Records opens the summer season by welcoming Juan Sapia back to the label for a new EP. Hailing from the progressive house hotbed of Argentina, Juan Sapia has enjoyed a steady rise since first emerging in 2017. As a favourite of progressive music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, the Buenos Aires resident has compiled an impressive resume, landing releases on top tier imprints such as EDGE, Mango Alley, Or Two Strangers, Sudbeat Music, and The Soundgarden. Clubsonica has also been a primary landing spot for Juan, with his label debut coming in 2021 with 'Masana | Embrace', a well-received joint project with Sri Lankan artist Hasith. The following year would see the Argentine make a triumphant return to the label with a solo artist showcase entitled 'Holy Grail | Space Turtle'. Now, following an EP for Argentina's pad records to begin the year, Juan makes a welcome return to the label with 'Aura | Forest Song', alongside remixes from Paul Deep and Leo Guerrero.

Returning to the label for the lone interpretation of 'Aura' is Paul Deep. With a career that spans the better part of a decade, the Argentinean artist has compiled an impressive resume along the way, landing releases via All Day I Dream, Tale and Tone, The Soundgarden and Sudbeat. World class DJs Lee Burridge, Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren have all been steadfast supporters of Paul's sound, which often sits in the creative space between progressive and organic house. Having been an integral part in Clubsonica's formative years, Paul provided two singles and a remix across 2016-2018, before returning in 2022 with a monstrous remix of 'Perfect Love' by Lio Q and Nicolas Leonelli. With his year being highlighted by an EP for Dmitry Molosh's Proportion imprint, Paul now makes a welcome return to Clubsonica with a stellar rendition of 'Aura'. Focusing on a slightly darker monochrome, the Buenos Aires resident goes deep and techy for what results in a heady nine-minute journey. Rebounding rhythms and deep chugging basslines set the course for snatches of flickering percussion and growling stabs. Looking to bring a greater emotional response, the main break shifts the narrative through heartfelt chord changes and trance-inducing melodies, before a wave of white noise perfectly sets up a stripped back drop and meditative finale.

Robbie Akbal is a Mexican organic house artist who recently launched his new record label, Midnight Riders. The label's new release features enchanting original music from Robbie Akbal alongside remixes by Alex Twin and Jim Rider.

Midnight Riders is sister label to Robbie Akbal's long-established Akbal Music with the aim of creating an outlet for the more melodic side of his sound.

One of North America's most respected underground artists, Robbie Akbal is known for his laidback grooves with soothing melodies and earthy percussion. He has travelled the world to DJ everywhere from Berlin to Tokyo, and is also a skilled producer that along with releasing music via his own record labels, has also featured on other prestigious imprints such as Sol Selectas and Crosstown Rebels.

On remix duty, Alex Twin is an organic house artist from Dubai who is a driving force within the country's club scene where he DJs regularly. He is also a talented producer who has built up a back catalogue including music on labels such as Bar 25, Cosmic Awakenings and Pipe & Pochet.

Also providing a remix, Jim Rider is a UK artist with close ties to Lee Burridge and his record labels All Day I Dream, TRYBESof and Tale & Tone. He has also released his majestic style via the likes of Kindisch and Akbal Music.

"Phangan" is the solo original track on this release and it's a mesmerising piece of music that orientates around upbeat percussion and trippy synth pads, which lay the foundation for a stunning sitar performance by Sidartha Siliceo. The track's breakdown is cut by dramatic bursts of percussion as it builds suspense to when the kick drum reappears and the sitar lifts it to new levels of psychedelia.

Alex Twin's remix of Phangan loops sections of the sitar and adds additional percussion to create a chunky groove that doesn't lose any of the original's trippy vibes while stepping the energy up a gear.

Jim Rider's remix adds a melodic bassline and epic synths that give his version an expansive sound, which creates an uplifting vibe shrouded in an immersive atmosphere that's perfect for the dance floor.
