Progressive 23

Kim Kholer 2024

Kamilo Sanclemente makes a long awaited debut.

Breaking onto the scene some 9 years ago on Einmusika, Kamilo's trajectory has been prolific. Signed to Global Underground, Balance and UV, to name a few, his signature sound has set dancefloors on fire all over the world. Now with multiple Beatport top 10s, including three number one hype charts, Sanclemente continues to pioneer the Columbian progressive sound.

Opening with 'Luminize' Sanclemente's silky smooth studio skills transform this sparse groove into a thing of beauty. Taking time to set the stage, clever keys and orchestration elevate the track into a pre-peak monster full of emotion and soul.

Next up, label favourite Graziano Raffa is on remix duties, and takes us on a deeper hypnotic vibe, plenty of groove and retaining the warmth from the original, underpinned by its bubbling bassline and wonderful chord changes for additional drama.

Rounding off the package is 'Parabelle', which takes us on a deeper, acidic path. Taking its cue from classic disco, the airy pads and summery keys have a sense of Studio54 about them creating a timeless work of art.

PREMIERE: Jamiroquai - Space Cowboy (Damaskus Edit)

Lisandro has become a firm favourite with the Proton faithful through his meticulously crafted music and elegant melodies. At the forefront of the underground dance scene with his smorgasbord of influences and genre-defying work, the Argentinean producer has seen his work feature on such esteemed imprints as Songuara, Amulanga and Pablo Bolivar's Seven Villas. A notable body of work can also be found on Lisandro's own Flug Lab imprint which continues to go from strength to strength as over a half-century of production credits chart a maturing path. No more is this evident than in February 2023's "Recurrence Soundtracks Netflix" which showcases a dozen electronica inspired pieces that formed the sonic background for the Netflix Spanish language film of the same name.

Proton Music has also seen the Lisandro sound well represented by both original and remix work. A trio of remixes for Erdi Irmak, Magitman and Cream saw the Buenos Aires resident make his presence felt in 2020 and 2021, before December 2022's "Traditions" took centre stage with its luscious soundscapes and head-shaking grooves.

Now returning to Proton Music, the "Eclectic" EP highlights another three tracks rich in imagination and elegant production work. In this musical triptych, Lisandro has explored a host of new ideas, giving rise to a powerful vision and unique sonic identity by pushing the envelope of modern electronic music. Perhaps the last word should be left to the artist himself, with Lisandro having the following to say about his new musical offering.

"I present to you my new EP: "Eclectic". This title reflects my vision of creating music that is a fusion of diverse influences and styles. "Eclectic" is a term used in the musical context to describe an approach that encompasses a wide range of influences and genres, blending them in a unique and original way. In this EP, I have pushed the boundaries of electronic music, merging elements from different genres to create an intriguing and diverse listening experience. Each track in "Eclectic" represents my passion for experimentation and the creation of unique sonic landscapes and club grooves. Immerse yourself in my eclectic musical world and discover the magic of style fusion! As an artist, I am thrilled to share this EP with you, and I hope you enjoy this musical journey as much as I did creating it. Thank you for your support, and I hope you find inspiration in this EP, "Eclectic".

From the Macedonian city of Serres in northern Greece, Simos Tagias has created a colourful musical history full of progressive house flair and melodic beauty. Returning to Meanwhile for a third original EP, the Greek artist dazzles with “Skyline / A Memory”.

Over the course of more than 400 production credits, Simos Tagias has continued to flourish, carving out a unique niche within the progressive house fraternity as his reputation and passion to his craft continue to produce a rich seam of valuable underground dance music. After a debut on Lynx Records in late 2012, Simos has gone on to feature on a plethora of high-profile imprints with a portfolio of original and remix material on the likes of Juicebox Music, Proton Music and Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music.

March 2021 saw a Meanwhile debut in the shape of the twin-track “Euphoria / Emotion”, before a second original EP in February 2023 found “Archaios / Geometric” taking centre stage. Remixes for Imran Khan and Alex O’Rion have been further notable highlights as Simos Tagias now return to the GMJ & Matter led label with a third original offering and the “Skyline / A Memory” EP.

Propelled powerfully forward with an unrelenting kick and smooth percussive groove, “Skyline” immediately hypnotises with ticking hats and subtly melodious woodblock phrasing. A sub-bassline enters the fray to add cavernous dancefloor depth, while delay-infused synth sequences meander atop the rhythm section. A sublime arpeggio enters the fray at the mid-point alongside a canopy of white-noise washes and textured pads before the track erupts into its third movement with full-bodied dancefloor character. An immaculate balance of rhythm and melody transpires throughout the second half as filtered phrasing makes “Skyline” an essential club offering.

A chunky bass sequence and heavy kick provide a strong and mesmerising opening to “A Memory”. A brooding, seething club monster, refined melodic passages and intelligent chord progressions create a fizzing and emotive energy that continues to build across the 7-minute track. As new counterpoint layers are introduced, the track’s multi-faceted nature continues to delicately expose itself like newly discovered memory fragments until the whole picture is revealed at the breakdown and into a satisfying denouement. The result is yet another classy work.

Rising once more to the upper echelons of the progressive house scene, Simos Tagias flies high via his “Skyline / A Memory” EP.

Clubsonica Records opens the new year by welcoming Antrim back to the label for a new EP. Antrim's creative partnership with Clubsonica dates back almost a decade, with his label debut being a 2015 remix of Kamilo Sanclemente's ‘The Art of Voice', a release which would lead to two well-received singles ‘Catwalk' and ‘Hoffnung', the latter of which being a Beatport Organic House number one release. Now, a as perennial favourite of Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, Antrim makes a welcome return to Clubsonica with 'La Fin Du Monde | Meeting Point', alongside remixes from Dabeat & Juan Pablo Torrez and D-Nox. 

Antrim continues to find a perfect balance between trendsetting sounds and timeless musicality with the lead selection 'La Fin Du Monde'. A DJ friendly intro sets a lively mood with rolling grooves, shuffling rhythms and a clever coax of clattering percussion. Building energy with each successive pass, its vibrant effects and aquatic arps add colour to what is a mature club-effective arrangement, perfectly leading to a series of emotive chord changes and a tranquil break, one which furthers its dancefloor appeal as an uplifting final ensues. The companion piece 'Meeting Point' showcases Antrim's studio repertoire further with a smooth and equally engaging journey. Clocking in at over eight minutes in length, the Cordoba resident's creative prowess shines once again, as he crafts a lively club cut that is rich with rhythm, groove and atmosphere. Thunderous bass swells, hopeful pads and a capsizing swing create a perfect balance of energy and emotion, before giving way to a haunting break and groove-centric drop that's sure to leave a lasting memory on the dancefloor.

The lone interpretation of ‘La Fin Du Monde' is provided by occasional studio partners Dabeat & Juan Pablo Torrez. 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. Now laying claim to an impressive discography, the Santiago de Cali resident has showcased his music via Anjunadeep, Mango Alley, Plattenbank, Proton, Replug and Sudbeat, while continuing to receive play and support from the genre's premiere tastemakers. Meanwhile, Colombian artist and Clubsonica label boss Juan Pablo Torrez has also compiled an impressive resume since first emerging in 2007. Mango Alley, Plattenbank, The Soundgarden, UV and more have served as landing spots for his progressive creations, while world class DJs Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren have been steadfast supporters along the way. Also highly regarded as a DJ, Juan remains one of Colombia's premiere talents, sharing the stage with Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Sasha, Matador, and more. Focusing on a lighter monochrome, the Colombian duo takes greater aim at the dancefloor for what results in a poignant journey. Rebounding rhythms and deep chugging basslines set the course for snatches of flickering percussion, shapeshifting effects and vibrant arpeggiated sequences. Looking to bring a profound emotional response, it's a series of stirring chord changes which carry through a spirited break, before a rush of drums and effects cues a heartfelt finale which an astute dancefloor will certainly appreciate.

The release concludes with D-Nox with the lone interpretation of ‘Meeting Point'. Whether operating in solo capacity or as one half of D-Nox & Beckers, the German artist lays claim to an impressive resume, highlighted by releases on Bedrock, Einmusika, Monaberry, Sudbeat and his own Sprout imprint. Beginning with tough kick drums and chugging grooves, D-Nox dubs down the textural vibe of the original into something tougher and more energetic. Its rolling rhythms and detailed approach are sure to be a delight for progressive house aficionados, while anthemic chord stabs and rejuvenating pads create a gorgeous canopy of sound which seals its dancefloor appeal.

Release info: 

Release Date:  March 20, 2017

Darin Epsilon's label Perspectives Digital returns for the fourth consecutive year with its massively popular ‘MMW & WMC Sampler'.  The 2017 edition continues the tradition of showcasing some of the finest talent in the industry.  

The first selection of the series is provided by DJ's Roma Rone and Igor Ri9or.  blaktone is a brand new music project from Saint-Petersburg and their music is a symbiosis of progressive and techno sounds.  Ri9or is no stranger to the electronic music scene with releases on labels such as Balkan Connection, Bonzai Progressive, Visceral, and Pangea Recordings.  blaktone's ‘Aurora' teases the listener with threads of atmospheric sweeps but quickly launches into commanding force with its dark and gnarly bassline.

Teaming up for the second selection is Hasan Mogol and Be Morais.  German producer Hasan Mogol has been creating an array of hypnotizing, crowd-pleasing sounds for over ten years.  Brazilian producer and co-owner of Not Another Music, Be Morais, is rapidly establishing himself as a respected artist with his steady stream of works on Stripped Recordings, Dear Deer, and Slideways.  Hasan and Be Morais' collaboration on ‘Awkward Dance' crafts an undeniably industrious and sinister vibe with its pounding kick, haunting bassline and grimy chords. 

Next up is Kamilo Sanclemente making his third appearance on the label. The Colombian producer maintains his masterful discography on imprints such as Einmusika, Baroque, and Mistique Music.  He's a staple on the Progressive House charts and a constant presence in Hernan Cattaneo's charts and ‘Resident' radio show.  Kamilo's offering titled ‘The White City' pushes the listener into a spellbinding state with its vigorous layers of percussion and eerie vocal samples.

Completing the series is Hungarian producer Paul Kardos.  Paul's impactful debut on Perspectives titled ‘The Other' was instrumental to the success of the ‘2016 ADE Sampler' last October.  Paul brings his signature blend of melodic techno and contemporary progressive house with his newest production. In ‘Ancient Astronaut', the dominating groove and whimsical chords continuously build, creating relentless tension that satisfies in the third act with a dramatic finish.

If there's one producer that has been rapidly rising to widespread international recognition and support it must be Kamilo Sanclemente. Especially in the past year / year and a half, the Colombian artist has been prominently knocking on the door of the global progressive house community with a constant output of high quality music, leading him to become one of the most wanted- and loved producers out there at the moment. Perspectives, Parquet, The Soundgarden and FSOE are only a few examples of labels he has been working for, and we're proud to call him one of our own too here at Manual Music / MNL.

It is with great delight we're welcoming him back on board our label, presenting four of his strongest tracks to date, all bundled up and titled 'Like Cats From Space EP'- after his love for (his) cats and fascination for outer space.

Showcasing his trademark crossover progressive house sound, bundling elements of deep house and melodic techno, this EP is a perfect example of his versatility. From the more chilled out vibes of 'Manthra' to the more roaring dance floor pleasing 'Everyday Chemistry', the classical and tribal sounds of 'Mandhala' to the catchy hit potential of the title track 'Like Cats From Space', it's all included on this magical bundle of joy!
