Bicep, Clara La San - Saku (Andrés Moris Trip Mix) [Free Download]

For A Line In The Sand's final EP of the year, Mike Griego & Scippo deliver two powerful dancefloor anthems, already gaining support from renowned artists like Hernan Cattaneo and John Digweed.

"Trapped Under Ice" takes listeners on a journey through eerie soundscapes, sci-fi elements, haunting bells, and dark, atmospheric textures.

"Pentimento" drives the energy with a deep, resonant sub-bass, pulsating drums, and evolving effects that will captivate any dancefloor.

"Arts Pleasure” blends synthwave sensibilities with a raw edge, driven by a grinding bass guitar that pulses beneath the surface. Rising gated arpeggios add an energetic lift, creating a dynamic fusion of retro vibes and modern electronic intensity.

An artist with a rich and impressive pedigree, Mike Rish returns to Meanwhile with a triple-tracker of exceptional quality in "Sunset on Mars / Tornn / Shokl".

A Melbourne native with a strong back catalogue stretching back over 15 years, Mike Rish's debut quickly became a starting point for a successful career, predominantly focused on the sound of Progressive House. Since 2009, the Australian has gone on to see his music featured on the likes of Vapour Recordings, Anjunadeep and Guy J's Lost & Found, while a trio of EPs for Meanwhile between 2021 and 2024 have seen Mike Rish sparkle with a collection of beautifully crafted original sonic sculptures. Now returning for the first time since August 2024's "Akhnaton / Gröv / Cloudbreaker" triumph, 3 new original tracks take centre stage.

The compelling "Sunset on Mars" opens with a thumping beat and smooth percussive top-line before a swathe of effects-laden synths percolate the soundwaves with rich delays and reverb. A powerful bassline adds dancefloor urgency while an evocative arp filters its way to the foreground through the second movement. Rising and falling with club-friendly knowhow, the track gradually picks up pace before entering the second half full of punchy bravado. Immaculately constructed, "Sunset on Mars" is an aural triumph.

Continuing the powerful rhythmic character of its predecessor, "Tornn" is a thumping, chugging bassline monster that rolls seductively across its 7-minute timeframe. Endless delays and effects swim across the stereo spectrum in swirling atmospheres as vocal snippets talk of remembered dreams and an eerily pitched menace. Evolving easily through its phases, the second half comes to life as bassline and rhythmic prowess take control across the shape-shifting soundscapes.

Opening with a strong tribal rhythm and subtle jungle-themed effects and bird calls, another chorus of reverb-drenched effects and delays across a smorgasbord of vocal cuts, provide a beautiful dub-inspired atmosphere. Coming to the fore at the stripped-back breakdown with expansive ease, Mike Rish gently picks up the pace through the second half to create and intriguing and dynamic listening environment through his sublime layering of vocal elements.

Returning to the label that is fast becoming a second home, Mike Rish delights Meanwhile listeners with "Sunset on Mars / Tornn / Shokl".

► Release Info:

Vapour Recordings returns for the next release and this time we are staying local again.

Up next we welcome Meanwhile head honchos, all round legends and very close personal friends to Kasey Taylor and Vapour Recordings, GMJ & Matter. The boys are back on Vapour for their first full single with the label together. Having previously remixed Kasey Taylor's Impressions in 2024, they return with a full original two track EP titled Apex and Undergrowth.

GMJ & Matter have hit their straps over the last few years and have been right at the forefront of the scene with their legendary Meanwhile Recordings label going from strength to strength. On top of that their own productions, remixes and tours are also flying, which includes our annual night together at ADE when our two labels join forces for the night to showcase the best artists from across both labels.

This EP packs a punch with Apex the leading track. This tune has been a highlight of their sets over the last year or so with their trademark sound stamped all over it. It's groovy, tough, driving and hypnotic which is everything you expect from these two juggernauts and has had a lot of early support from all the usual suspects, while Undergrowth takes a more 3am deep wonky cosmic vibe approach which hits the lower tones just perfectly.

It's great to have these two back on the label with their first full single together.

We hope you enjoy this one.
