An artist who has quickly come to the fore over the past 3 years, Wolfframm now joins the Proton Music roster with his debut "Us / Trommelbaer" EP.

A German/Australian producer with a growing set of production credentials to his name, Paul Richter has excelled under his Wolfframm pseudonym. A debut on Late Night Music in early-2020 has quickly led to more than 30 credits for the Melbourne-based imprint, before March 2024 saw the release of the "Lucid" EP on Particles including remixes from Jamie Stevens and Amháin. Now debuting on Proton's flagship imprint, a whispered vocal heralds the opening of "Us" before a louder enunciation punctuates the 8-minute offering. Full of the dramatic cinematic layering that has become a trademark of his work, Wolfframm's impressive production techniques are fully to the fore as an array of evolving melodic layers cascade off each other, blossoming at the mid-point, before exploding into the third movement. Anchored by a wonderful dancefloor groove that exudes dancefloor knowhow, "Us" is a pure joy to behold. "Trommelbaer" is a glorious groove-laden affair that bristles with a shuffling shaker-led percussion and deep kick. An immaculately syncopated bassline adds depth while a gloriously muted lead line gradually plucks its way into listener consciousness. A richly textured backdrop of pads and delicate vocal touches add to the soundscape as trademark cinematic strings and reverb-drenched lead-line emerge at the breakdown before evolving further in a dramatic and commanding second half.

No stranger to the musical limelight, Dowden has been a key figure in the Progressive House genre, not least through a triple century of credits for the likes of Alex O'Rion's Solis Records, GMJ & Matter's Meanwhile, and Mango's Mango Alley. First appearing on Particles courtesy of a remix of Ric Neils' "Reasons", Dowden now joins the Proton Music roster with a beautifully crafted reworking of Wolfframm. Making intelligent use of the central melodic theme that runs through "Trommelbaer", Dowden's skill is to wrap his interpretation around a crisp rhythmic shell that provides the perfect vehicle for a gradually evolving soundscape to flourish over its 8-minute timeframe. Pausing with a delicate, pulsating breakdown, the second half picks up the pace with dancefloor ease to create a memorable and unique interpretation of Wolfframm's original.

Andrea Cassino is no stranger to the Proton Music limelight. The Italian-born, artist has lit up the label with a score of production material that includes 2017's "Divine", 2020's "Losing Part of Me" and 2021 "Asante" in collaboration with Lio Q. Furthermore, remixes for Kamilo Sanclemente & Dabeat, GMJ, Michael A and Savvas have shown another side to the Argentinean-based producer's work. Now returning for the first time in over 2 years, the Andrea Cassino remix takes "Us" on a magical journey that is fuelled by a driving rhythmic backdrop and bassline gravitas with its roots firmly in the original. Thickly textured pads add to the dense aural collage and new ethereal phrases emerges alongside familiar phrasing as the striking rhythmic backdrop propels the remix forwards with incredible dancefloor prowess that blossoms in the second half with grace and poise.

A legendary figure, Paul Deep has been at the vanguard of the underground dance scene for over a decade. Now he returns to Proton Music with the brand new "You Do" EP.

Showcasing his music on such glittering imprints as GMJ & Matter's Meanwhile, Henry Saiz's Natura Sonoris and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, the Argentinean has been a regular on Proton Music since 2022 with his 3-track "Orchid" and June 2024 "Odyssey" original EPs. Returning for the first time in over a year, "You Do" is a typically smooth and polished affair with chest-thumping kick, rolling percussive groove and ticking hi-hats. Add in a subterranean sub-bassline and deliciously hypnotic revolving motifs that expand with glistening delicacy at the mid-point, and the track reveals the extraordinary quality of Paul Deep's production talent.

On remix duties, Roger Martinez is a seasoned, "trance inducing" DJ and production maestro who has been part of the Proton Music roster for more than 15 years since a 2008 debut and the "Retrospect EP". Remixes of Matt Rowan and Moonbeam followed before 2017's "Dream State" was a notable highlight in a glittering portfolio which later saw remixes from Stas Drive and Orsen. Returning with a masterful reinterpretation of "You Do", a powerful tribal groove is immediately in evidence before mesmerising melodic phrases filter into sonic range. A sustained bassline melody at the breakdown is a spine-tingling highlight that perfectly complements the arpeggiated melodic sequencing, while the driving tribal rhythms hit hard once again in the second half alongside an intermittent vocal sample.

A Proton Music newcomer, Juan Ibanez is no stranger to the modern Progressive House scene. Hailing from the north-western province of La Rioja, the Argentinean producer fuses deep and progressive sounds with his music finding its way onto such blue-chip labels as Juicebox Music, Mango Alley and Nick Warren's The Soundgarden. Now adding Proton Music to that resumé, the Juan Ibanez remix of "You Do" is a sophisticated gem characterised by an intricately programmed rolling groove that lays the perfect foundation for a magnificently deep bass groove to evolve underneath haunting new melodies and the central refrain of Paul Deep's original. As the bassline evolves into new directions, so the melodies follow in effortless patterns as the breakdown explodes into progressive breakbeat territory with whispered vocal sample, before a second half of dizzying arpeggio joy.

Paul Deep finds his magical touch once more with "You Do" ably abetted with remixes from Roger Martinez and Juan Ibanez.
