PASINDU - Arms Of Heaven (Ias Ferndale Remix)

The story continues for Perpetual E-Motion, Francesco Pico's upcoming artist album. After the beatless and downtempo delight of episode 0 and the warm up vibe of episode 1 we're now unleashing episode 2 where the Dutch progressive house legend slowly but surely moves towards peak time dancefloor goodness.

Where the title 'Summer of Love- Duhh!' is clearly an expression of frustration towards the failed Dutch festival season, the song itself is a very warm and intelligent melodic cut which is carried by a soulful female vocal.

'It's a Good Time' is the point where Francesco clearly moves away from early night territory and moves towards the peak time moments. It's all system go from here.. A good time indeed!

Francesco Pico - It's A Good Time

Rounding out the month of October, Tash's Movement Recordings welcomes Dabeat to the label for his debut EP. Sitting as one of Colombia's premiere progressive house talents, David Barragan aka Dabeat has enjoyed a steady rise since first emerging in 2008 with a release courtesy of Beatfreak Recordings. The next decade saw David perfect his craft with a sound that many describe as groovy, dynamic and emotional. Now laying claim to an impressive discography, the Santiago de Cali resident has showcased his music via Cid Inc's Replug Records, Nick Warren's Hope Recordings, Clubsonica Records, Mango Alley and Proton Music, while continuing to receive play and support from the genre's premiere tastemakers. Now continuing what has been an inspired year, Dabeat makes his Movement Recordings debut with a four-track showcase entitled 'Resonance'.

Getting the release underway with 'Istila', Dabeat collaborates with fellow countryman Zalvador. As occasional studio partners, the duo have recorded joint productions for D-Nox's Sprout, Mango Alley, Univack and more. Aiming squarely at a peak time dance floor 'Istila' sets the tone for the release with its infectious grooves, buzzing effects and warm, breezy overlays. Tantalizing arps emerge leading into the main break, acting as a perfect bridge into an interlude where emotive melodies marry placid pads onwards to a heartfelt finale.

Selection two finds Dabeat collaborating with frequent studio partner and progressive music star Kamilo Sanclemente. Long regarded as one of Colombia's foremost electronic music talents, the Cali resident has found a home on Anjunadeep, Clubsonica, Songspire and The Soundgarden, while earning continued support from Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Guy J. Now paired with Dabeat once again the duo deliver the EP's title selection 'Resonance'. Tight and rhythmic in all the right ways; fiery percussion and wavy arps set the course for aural enlightenment. Emotive chord changes transcend time and space across the first act, providing a poignant anchor for metallic motifs and shapeshifting melodies to work their magic during a thrilling conclusion.

The release concludes with two solo productions from Dabeat, beginning with the meditative sounds of 'Holofractal'. Its pulsating groove is perfectly contoured, adorned with rhythmic waves, delicate arps and colourful chord stabs. Glowing pads advance narrative, moving through poignant chord changes, while adding depth and emotion leading into the main break. Moving from placid soundscapes to cosmic creativities, the interlude not only shifts mood but builds tension towards a thumping drop and playful finale.

The final selection 'Sacrana' follows suit and is well in line with the previous track with its free flowing, trippy style. A marriage of emotive harmonics dazzle across the first act, sitting atop a fluid, progressive minded groove and layers of driving percussion. Once again, the main break is set to delight dance floors with its emotional disposition and tasteful build, which perfectly shift energy into a fluid, key changing finale. Exhilarating and memorable, it rounds out a welcome Movement Recordings debut for Dabeat, a highly talented artist who continues to be one of Colombia's most exciting progressive house producers.

Nikko.Z's Dopamine White welcomes Soulkeys, Larrosa & Gardoqui to the label for their debut EP. Hailing from Argentina, this quartet of progressive music producers has achieved measurable success in their respective careers. With a combined discography that includes releases via Beat Boutique, Plattenbank, Proton's Particles and Steyoyoke, the Buenos Aires residents have received play and support from electronic music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo, John Digweed, Sasha, Nick Warren, Guy Mantzur, Nicole Moudaber and more. Having worked together previously for Dear Deer, the quartet unites once again for their Dopamine White debut ‘Resilience'.
Beginning with the title selection you get a feel for just how strong the creative synergy between these four great talents is. Featuring a dark progressive minded narrative, the quartet craft a foundation of warm beats, fluid rhythms and devilish effects. Its robust low end is full of character and shape, positively charged and perfectly playing off a wealth of shapeshifting electronics. Coming to full fruition during the main break, a storyboard of warped, guitar-like hooks provides moments of tension and anticipation, before a wave of percussive flashes sparks a powerful drop and meditative finale.
The companion piece ‘Fog' follows suit with its ominous, subterranean energy. Dark undertones power the undulating groove, while esoteric effects and timely tonal shifts should make for some memorable dance floor moments. Arpeggiated fragments steal the air across the first act, playing off the rolling groove and neatly manicured percussion perfectly. Tense and exciting in equal measure, the main break melts down to a bassy rumble, paving the way for a finale that is both heady and hypnotic. It rounds out two classy productions from Soulkeys, Larrosa & Gardoqui, a quartet of talented artists who make their Dopamine White debut in fine style.

D-Nox returns with a solo release - My Life EP

D-Nox needs little introduction. His extensive back catalogue details a life in dance music from soundtracking festivals, clubs and events in far-flung arenas of sound to producing anthemic hits for seminal labels like Vapour, Balance Music and Bedrock.

Bringing all that experience to bear on his latest double-header, we begin with ‘Inner Peace’, a detailed exploration of his deeper side. Opening with a jangling, percussive beat, bouncy arps, ad hoc vocals and a playful reese bass create a contemplative whole. Diving deeper into the transcendence, the track takes on a meditative quality perfect for those end-of-the-night, eyes closed, hands in the air sonic ephanies.

On the flipside, ‘Your Love’ takes on a darker persona. Heavier bass, more insistent percussion, and soaring melodics, this is squarely aimed at the pre-peak floor and utter sonic destruction.
