'Ric Niels has been with Mango Alley since the very beginning of his career and took part in numerous MA projects & releases: from curating the Augmented Compilation to hosting The Alley show on FRISKY Radio. His style and production are continuously evolving and improving, and we're excited to present his brand new Mango Alley solo 2-tracker - ALLEY211 "Phantom / Stomp"!

Both tracks are the perfect examples of contemporary progressive house sound - deep, clean, sophisticated and designed for the long and immersing dj sets. No doubt they will take a place among your "go to" pieces to get the club moving!'

Ric Niels - Phantom / Stomp

Premiere: Ric Niels - Phantom [Mango Alley]

'Presenting their first release of the year, EDGE welcomes Eric Lune and Juan Sapia to the label for their debut EP. Hailing from Australia, Eric Lune emerged from his country's progressive music landscape in 2018. Noted for his emotional dance floor productions, Eric's craft shines through vividly, making each one of his creations an incredibly absorbing experience. A debut on Sound Avenue foreshadowed what has been a four-year creative swell for the Melbourne resident. A string of well-received projects for Balance Music, Plattenbank, Proton Music and Sound Avenue have yielded play and support from Guy Mantzur, Eelke Kleijn and Nick Warren. Meanwhile, hailing from the progressive house hotbed of Argentina, Juan Sapia has enjoyed a similar rise to success 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 via Mango Alley, Or Two Strangers, Sudbeat Music and The Soundgarden. Now, combining their extensive forces for the first time, Eric and Juan debut on EDGE with ‘Diamonds’, alongside a remix from Eran Aviner & Hermanez. 

EP opener and title selection ‘Diamonds’ finds that perfect balance between rhythm and musicality, as Eric and Juan let hopeful atmospheres descend over warm beats and layers of dusty drums. Thematically distinct moving forward, soulful strums and scenic vocal edits ring out in timeless suspension, elevating mood while providing a bridge into the main break. Sure to be a memorable dance floor moment, percussive slowly melts away across the centrepiece, as melodic clusters emerge and each sound becomes an event in a slowly expanding landscape, zooming out to reveal a world of scale in which depth and contrast coax perfectly with colour and emotion. The inevitable zenith of this heartwarming narrative peaks with a rare combination of hope, heartache and reflection, ultimately setting the course for a groovy drop and tasteful finale. Meanwhile, the companion piece ‘Himalaya’ lands with an equally impressive display of craftsmanship, as Eric and Juan reaffirm their progressive prowess, planting multiple explosions of serotonin through transcendent melodies, vocal overlays and glassy motifs. Clever musical co-actions make for a break that is both poignant and otherworldly, flowing through wavy arps and emotive key changes, before confidently returning to the groove for a sweeping, acid-laced finale. '
