A notable highlight in the Meanwhile production catalogue, Jamie Stevens provided a slice of sonic magic in mid-2022 with his “Circles” EP. Now revisiting the 3-track offering, a trio of remixes come from high-profile artists across three continents.

Hernan Cattaneo & Marcelo Vasami need little introduction to anyone with a passion for underground house. The Argentinean, a household name, regularly plays to audiences in the tens of thousands across South America and beyond, while his Sudbeat Music imprint is at the forefront of the electronic music scene. Widely known as “El Maestro”, Hernan’s reputation is assured. Similarly, Marcelo Vasami has been a renowned figure for over a decade with his music on the likes of Plattenbank, Afterglow, Replug and Sudbeat. Joining forces for their Meanwhile debut, the Hernan Cattaneo & Marcelo Vasami remix of “Stuck on a Feeling” immediately captures the light melodic eloquence of the original while adding a plethora of new production layers, not least in a sublime new bassline progression and crisp rolling percussive groove. Familiar refrains and the vocal so prominent in the original, come to the fore as textured and ethereal pads provide an enchanted moment in the final movement.

A growing force under his progressive house guise with releases on Lost & Found, Sudbeat Music and Mango Alley, Mike Rish has hit upon a formula for success since early work for UGENIUS. December 2021 provided the Melbourne resident with the opportunity to make his Mark on GMJ & Matter’s imprint as he released his impressive musical triptych, “Beyond”. Now returning for a debut remix, the Mike Rish reworking of “Storm Front” is characterised by a deep and chunky bass groove that sits perfectly within a popping, wood-block top-line with its roots firmly in Jamie Stevens’ original. Evolving with ease, smooth production elements from the Mike Rish studio make their presence felt before a richly sustained bassline assumes a prominent role in the second half to superb effect.

Navar has been at the forefront of the underground dance scene for more than 15 years with his imaginative approach and immaculately honed sound. 200 production credits are testament to that fact, for such esteemed imprints as Balance, microCastle and Guy J’s Lost & Found. November 2022’s “Return of the Sun” illuminated Meanwhile in late 2022 as the Dutch star returns for a second remix outing. Reworking the title track, the Navar interpretation is a sparkling jewel that transforms “Circles” into a glorious, arpeggio-laden offering that shimmers with delays and delicate rhythmic cadence in the early stages. Building imperceptibly with bass groove and vocal breaths from the original, it erupts at the mid-point with a driving beat that provides a spine-tingling dancefloor juxtaposition to the smooth melodic sequences, capturing the hypnotic character of Jamie’s work.

Three new remixes see Hernan Cattaneo & Marcelo Vasami, Mike Rish and Navar create another set of magic “Circles” for Jamie Stevens.

Making a welcome return to the label he co-founded in mid-2021 with fellow countryman, GMJ, Matter once again showcases his exceptional production skills on Meanwhile Horizons, this time in the shape of the 3-track, “Waratah / Living Dream / All Knowing”. 

After debuting on the label’s inaugural “Beyond the Horizon” release in August 2021, Matty Doyle took his Matter production moniker to new heights with the scintillating “Starchild” album. Released in November that year, the 10-track magnum opus perfectly illustrated the Melbourne star’s production wizardry with an immaculate blend of rolling grooves, cavernous basslines and floating melodies. Responsible for over 30 production credits on the flagship Meanwhile imprint in solo and collaborative guises, the most recent have come in January 2022’s “Banksia” and September’s remix of Alex O’Rion’s “Echium” with GMJ. 

“Waratah” thus retains all the trademark production knowhow built up over a decade at the vanguard of the progressive house scene. Characterised by a skipping rolling groove, a huge pulsating bassline powers across the low-end while a smooth lead-line coruscates above with carefree abandon. Delicately cadenced chords and rich pads add to the soundscape, revealed fully at the breakdown, while a second half combination of groove and melody creates a sublime denouement. 

Replete in complex and intricately programmed percussive flare, the feelgood, “Living Dream” is propelled forward with deep kick and catchy muted motif. Vocal-infused pads whisper gently while an upward arpeggio adds additional character and sonic flare as the track reaches its captivating zenith. 

The final offering sees the melancholy overtones of “All Knowing” ripple across a hypnotic rhythmic backdrop. Ticking hats and fizzing shakers keep dancefloor energy high while a panoply of complementary melodies and phrases fire off each other, culminating in a filtered analogue sequence at the mid-point. Building once more in the second half the phrase comes to the fore once again, surrounded by the head-shaking groove and subtle melodic arrangement. 

Crafting a beautiful sonic novella via “Waratah / Living Dream / All Knowing”, Matter demonstrates an abundance of creative talent.
