Release Promo Review

Madloch's Sound Avenue opens the new year by showcasing new interpretations of Eric Lune's 'Dreaming Home'. Originally released in May of 2021 as part of the Aussie artist's 'Dreaming Home' two-track showcase, its tastefully melodic disposition proved to be a worthy follow-up to 2019's progressive anthem 'Embers'. Now as 2022 gets underway, Sound Avenue invites Sebastian Sellares, Forty Cats and Harmonious to re-imagine 'Dreaming Home' for the winter season.

Returning to the label and providing the first interpretation of 'Dreaming Home' is Sebastian Sellares. Also known under his previous moniker Monje, Sebastian hails from one of Argentina's most talent-rich regions in Cordoba. Since adopting his given name for his musical endeavors in 2018, Sebastian has gone on to showcase his music via UK behemoth Anjunadeep, Antrim's Or Two Strangers, GMJ and Matter's meanwhile and long-standing US imprint Proton Music. Having made his Sound Avenue debut in 2021 with a well-received rendition of 'Union Eterna' by Matias Vilas, Sebastian now makes a welcome return to the label with a stunning take on 'Dreaming Home'. Fluid and groovy in equal measure, it's a mix that carries the spirit of the original, while adding a peak time sensibility through driving grooves and otherworldly effects. Building beautifully across the first movement, Sebastian fragments the lead theme and reprocesses the vocal into a colourful canopy which blankets a trance inducing groove. Emotive chord changes carry a strong character into the break, perfectly setting the stage for the lead theme to work its magic. Its nostalgic musicality resonates against a backdrop of shapeshifting vocals and cosmic effects, tastefully building tension towards a classy crescendo and heartfelt finale.

Continuing their ascent through the organic house underground, Mariner + Domingo return to Madloch's 3rd Avenue with their new EP "I Don't Want To Wait". 3rd and Sound Avenue has become somewhat of a home base for the talented American duo. A cross section of Mariner + Domingo's most beloved tracks have come courtesy of the long-standing imprint, most notably Le' Carnival', Edenwilde' and Another Life', the latter of which earned play, support and a Beatport chart feature from world class DJ and All Day I Dream boss Lee Burridge. Now as 2022 gets underway, 3rd invites Soulfeed, Beije and Dzhef to remix 'I Don't Want To Wait'.

Mariner + Domingo - I Don't Want to Wait (Beije Remix) [3rd Avenue]

Erdi Irmak - Driftwood[XYZ050]
Release Date - 1.28.22
Stream - https://xyzlabel.lnk.to/Driftwood

Erdi Irmak is simply one of the most eclectic producers in the modern deep & melodic scene. The Turk has carved his own path, releasing sensational cross-cultural sounds on the likes of Tale & Tone, Amulanga, and Hoomidas. The XYZ faithful will have grown fond of Erdi’s work on the imprint thus far, appearing on each of our Oppo projects and presenting a delightful remix of a label classic - Same Light. The Istanbul-bred producer now arrives in full, crafting his first full-fledged EP on XYZ in the form of Driftwood.

In many ways, Amega is the voice of XYZ. She collaborates with Erdi on the project’s A-side, offering her instantly recognizable vocals on I Can Find. A rich percussive groove sets the vibe, as Amega’s performance summons hopeful prose lush with light; a valiant tone to start the year. Melodic mastery by both artists, who come together for the first time in pristine fashion. 

Driftwood lifts the pace, shifting into dancefloor mode with a warm bassline and synthetic cuts entering the fore. Energy ebbs & flows on this heady hitter from Erdi, showcasing his immense range as a producer. Eastern instrumentals maintain an organic opulence, while the house kicks pause only momentarily to create a powerful rise. An essential tool for the selectors.

Closing out the project is Rainflow, a boastfully balanced groover for both mind & body. The underbelly is built upon an ominous low-end, maintaining a driven arrangement for the dancers. Immaculate instrumentalism rises to a higher plane, and a soft vocal cut exalts exhalation. A special cut from one of the best.

Erdi Irmak - Rainflow [Snippet]

Continuing a strong start to the year, Tash's Movement Recordings welcomes Cream to the label for his debut EP. Whether operating solo or as part of the famed Cream and Deep Fog duo, Polish artist Cream has firmly etched his place in the history of progressive music. With a discography that dates back almost a decade, the Jarosław resident has showcased his music via 3rd Avenue, Beatfreak Limited, Deepwibe Underground, Ein and Proton Music, while earning continued support from genre tastemaker Hernan Cattaneo. Now, as 2022 begins to take shape, Cream adds Movement Recordings to his resume with 'Resonance' alongside a remix from Eric Rose.

The release begins with 'Resonance' which finds Cream drawing on the melodic sensibilities of his repertoire. It's warm groove commands a big presence from the outset, adorned with fiery percussion and rhythmic pulses to drive momentum forward. Cosmic effects steal the air, building anticipation as a melodic lead begins to surface, bringing emotional depth to the journey before initiating a heartfelt break. Cascading melodies and hopeful atmospherics marry beautifully across the expansive interlude, building emotion with each successive pass, before eventually giving way to a thumping drop and key changing finale.

The second selection 'Sinoma' continues the progressive tone set by its predecessor with a sleek, mid-set style vibe. Mysterious and mystical from the outset, a hip swinging groove sits at the foundation, as filtered effects and meditative loops converge across the first act. The narrative shifts into darker territory as the main break commences, with crunchy rhythms playing off swirling atmospherics, before smoothly shifting energy into a hypnotic conclusion.

The third and final original 'Vertigo' follows a similar sonic ethos but resonates on a deeper, more emotive level. Remarkably powerful, its fluid groove commands attention, moving through rolling contours and rhythmic pulses, while striking stabs and arpeggiated fragments add further bounce to the framework. Sweeping effects initiate the main break, eventually melting down to a reservoir of buzzing effects and shape shifting electronics, tactfully building tension and setting the stage for a free-flowing finale.

The release concludes with Eric Rose making his label debut and providing the lone interpretation of 'Resonance'. Based in the Ukraine, Eric Rose first emerged in 2015 with a trio of releases via Pleasure Records, before going on to land projects with Dear Deer and Timeless Moment, where his melodic house and techno sound flourished. Now famed for his recent offerings via ATLANT, Eklektisch and Heinz Music, the Kyiv resident artist brings his talents to Movement with a stellar rendition of 'Resonance'. Remarkably fluid and hugely energetic, it's a mix that stays true to the themes from the original, while adding a distinct astral quality. Wavy arps and offset chord stabs come in waves across the first act, building momentum with each successive pass as the main break approaches. Dramatic and emotive in equal measure, the centrepiece drifts from elastic-like lines and warm bass swells into a striking build and devilish crescendo, as the beats drop for an exhilarating final movement. A huge interpretation from Eric, which rounds out an excellent Movement Recordings debut for both himself and Cream.
