CATALOG MW029

Released in March 2021, Simos Tagias and his "Euphoria / Emotion" created a sublime musical moment, frozen in time. A year later and Meanwhile returns to the EP with a pair of remixes from Paul Deep and label owners, GMJ and Matter.

Plying his trade from an early age as a DJ across the Buenos Aries province, Paul Deep has an innate understanding of the music that moves club-goers. Able to translate this knowledge into the production arena, the Argentinean has had a stream of successful releases on the underground electronic industry's finest imprints. From Tale and Tone and Juicebox Music to The Soundgarden and Sudbeat Music, Paul Deep has continued to see his music supported by the DJ elite. Releasing the "Deeper Dye" EP on Meanwhile in June 2021, Paul produced a quartet of tracks that showcased his skill and craftsmanship, followed by an appearance of "Excursions, Vol. 1" two months later with "Milo".

A debut remix of Roger Martinez in late 2020 is now followed by a typically chunky rhythmic foundation that rolls effortlessly across his interpretation of "Euphoria". Underneath a tight percussive groove, strains of Tagias' central motif can be heard that flow over a subterranean bassline. Building with consummate ease, new melodies and additional production from the Paul Deep production portfolio emerge, making their presence felt at the breakdown. Making intelligent use of the remix components, a dark and seething dancefloor destroyer explodes into life in the second half to powerful effect.

GMJ and Matter need little introduction to the Meanwhile literati. A DJ and production pair at the height of their respective powers, the curation and development of their Meanwhile name has been impeccable. Peppering the release schedule with sparkling original productions and 24-carat remixes, the duo's "Lost on Origin" and "The Path / Perfect Storm" EPs have been notable highlights in the Meanwhile catalogue.

Returning for their second remix after an appearance alongside Paul Deep reworking "80s" from Roger Martinez's "Cosmic" EP, the GMJ and Matter remix of "Emotion" burns brightly with dancefloor energy. Creating a new cadence from Tagias' central melodic progression, shimmering synths ripple out in overlapping waves while pulsating pads drive their interpretation forward with elemental force. New motifs, infused with white-noise, fizz and sparkle as they cascade across the beatless breakdown, held in check by a rolling percussion. Dropping back into a sumptuous bassline synergy in the third movement, haunting vocals and immaculately programmed synth phrasing creates a remix of rare and quality and memorable production euphoria.

Through uplifting remixes from Paul Deep and GMJ and Matter, Simos Tagias has created a new state of ecstasy with his "Euphoria" EP.

Simos Tagias - Emotion (GMJ & Matter Remix)

Scaling the heights with the soaring “Levera | Agmoli” in September 2022, Jiminy Hop continued his impressive relationship with Meanwhile. Now returning to the EP, a pair of remixes from the Australian label heads and a Dutch icon continue the story.

Revitalised after a European tour and sold-out label showcase at ADE 2023, GMJ & Matter continue to ride the crest of a tidal wave of success. Founded upon a distinctive and evergreen production sound, the duo’s music continues to make waves of its own reaching dancefloors across the world, supported by global DJ A-listers. Moreover, the duo’s output on Meanwhile has seen a raft of original work since April 2020 in the shape of three original EPs, plus remixes for Roger Martinez, Simos Tagias, Rich Curtis and Alex O’Rion. Fresh from October 2023’s “Arkeron” on Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music, GMJ & Matter return to their spiritual home with a typically inspiring remix of “Levera”. Anchored by a kick full of heavyweight power, a rolling groove easily filters into the sonic frame as familiar percussive tropes from the original echo across the 8-minute piece. Evolving in dark and brooding majesty, a cadenced bassline adds weight and club-friendly hypnotism before a siren-filled breakdown heralds a third movement that brings in subtle variation, arpeggiated motifs and an immaculately blended central melodic riff from Jiminy Hop’s track. The result is another 24-carat gold remix that showcases GMJ & Matter’s talent to its fullest.

An artist at the vanguard of progressive house for over 15 years, Alex O’Rion continues to find himself much in-demand. From early outings on Black Hole focusing on trance, Alex’s work for Sudbeat Music, The Soundgarden and his own newly minted Solis Records has crystallised into a sumptuous deep progressive house sound. A regular on Meanwhile with a raft of original and remix work, May 2021’s 4-track “Echium” and August 2022’s “Solis / Pluvia / Sericum” EPs have lit up the label. Following on from remixes for GMJ & Matter and Rich Curtis, Alex O’Rion now delivers a typically smooth and effervescent reworking of “Agmoli”. A chest-thumping kick and clicking top-line supply head-shaking groove as familiar refrains from the original shimmer across the mid-range pre-breakdown. Through a sublime melodic narrative, a cast of characters both old and new, showcase O’Rion’s production talents as jagged analogue synth phrases coruscate in complex patterns, interwoven with arpeggiated patterns from Jiminy Hop’s track. Full of sonic intrigue and a palette of mellifluous sequences, the remix hits glorious heights post-breakdown as the full combination of bass, rhythm and melody combine to wondrous effect.

Through a pair of new remixes Jiminy Hop’s “Levera / Agmoli” continues to sparkle in brilliant sonic colours courtesy of GMJ & Matter and Alex O’Rion.

► Release Info:

From his home in Melbourne, Matty Doyle's success under his Matter soubriquet has seen an exponential rise over a career that spans more than a decade and some 400 production credits. Now returning to his spiritual home and the label he curates with his fellow countryman and production partner, Matter delivers "We Are Here".

An artist with no inconsiderable talent and a wealth of high-profile releases on Anjunadeep, Balance Music, BeatFreak Recordings and Proton Music, Matter's output on Meanwhile has also been prolific with such glittering solo gems as "Amanita", "Banksia" and a quartet of collaborative releases with GMJ since 2020 including: "Lost on Origin", "Eldarin" and December 2023's "Stellaris / Idtritah". Now, after the success of November 2021's "Starchild" on Meanwhile Horizons – achieving over 1 million Spotify streams – Matter returns to the flagship label with another magnificent magnum opus.

Opening with smooth beatless soundscapes of "Coming Home", Matter's trademark atmospheres and emotive melodic patterns flood through the 11-track album. The broken beat rhythms and velvety smooth basslines create a driving force across "Wombat Forest", while a more familiar 4-to-the-floor backdrop powers the likes of "Livid", "Afterburn" and "Stardew". Redolent in cascading delays, imaginative sonic textures and playful cadences, the trio shift in energy and dancefloor patterns to create a kaleidoscopic sonic tapestry. Joining forces with Meanwhile regular, Alex O'Rion, the Beatport chart-topper helps steer "Moksha" into familiar waters with rolling percussive groove and earworm motif that has become a staple of the pair's solo work.

Providing a moment for reflection at the mid-point mark with its undulating arpeggio and subtly filtered dynamism, "Things Beautiful" is nestled between the uptempo grooved bassline presence and evolving chord progressions of "Afterburn" and silky "Elsewhere" that hypnotises through its sustained arp and haunting vocal phrasing. The final stanza of tracks finds a new direction with the glissando lead line of "Times Gone By" forming the basis for a warm analogue distortion and counterpoint phrase before GMJ joins the fray on the chunky rhythmic mastery of "Conduits". Oozing club-friendly appeal and immaculate dancefloor cadence, the track is fuelled by shaker-driven vibrancy, coruscating arps and intermittent vocalisation, to create another classic collaboration. Closing out, "The Passage" is a dominant reminder of Matter's mastery over his sonic palette as it weaves a resplendent journey across modern progressive house.

Sitting proudly atop the Progressive House mountain with another summit finish of epic proportions, Matter can proudly claim, "We Are Here".

🗓 Release date : November 14, 2025 🗓
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Up next for Cydana Sounds is Daniel aka Cendryma's EP "Circles / Enter" from 2024, re-imagined by two of the scene's hottest names.

Having picked up support from the likes of Mariano Mellino at his Audioholics show in December of 2024, the uplifting and powerful pairing of "Circles" and "Enter" introduced Cendryma to an even bigger audience. Now, Argentina-based Kebin van Reeken and Spain's Benja Molina step up to the plate, bringing their own unique flair to the originals.

First up is Kebin van Reeken's pulse-pounding interpretation. Beginning with a mysterious yet meticulously crafted introductory passage that builds the tension further and further. This releases itself into the powerful, techno inspired main section with the significance that one would come to expect from the Dutch mastermind. The breakdown, where the familiar "Circles" melodic figure begins to introduce itself, continues to powerhouse its way into the post-chorus section of the tune. A perfect blend of power and finesse, Kebin van Reeken's remix of "Circles," is exactly the kind of peak-time Progressive that will have you dancing through the night.

The second remix comes from Spain's Benja Molina. Having made his statement debut on the UV label earlier this year, it is clear why he is rising at an astounding pace. Well crafted ear candy, a bassline groove that intensifies continuously throughout the 7 minute runtime and a powerful breakdown define the peak-time Progressive stormer. Uplifting, melodic, energetic and exactly what one comes to expect from the sound of this Spanish superstar.

This is "Circles / Enter [The Remixes]" from Cydana Sounds.
