02. Chris Zippel & Ghenwa Nemnom - To Follow (GMJ Remix)
03. Chris Zippel & Ghenwa Nemnom - To Follow (Landhouse Remix)

Release Info: 
A new label to enter the underground house milieu, Pillbox has a set of 24-carat gold credentials from which to cast its net over the global club scene. Owned and curated by Proton progenitor, Sam Packer, the label's first release sees a track from German and Lebanese talents. Remixes come from Australia and Germany.

An artist with a rich electronic music history, Chris Zippel has been immersed in the world of house since the age of 15. Splitting his time between Berlin and Ibiza, the German artist has taken centre stage with work alongside the Pet Shop Boys, Robbie Williams and Paul Van Dyk. With music signed to Ubersee Music, Allisum Records and GMJ & Matter's Meanwhile Horizons, Zippel continues to grow in stature. A rising star, renowned for her status as a leading Qanun player, Ghenwa Nemnom has combined her love of the traditional Middle Eastern instrument with an ability to use its unique sound in the world of dance music and the organic house sound found on such leading imprints as Café De Anatolia, Alt Orient and Melody of the Soul. Now joining forces for the first time, "To Follow" is an extraordinary track that drifts enticingly with gently rolling beat and deep 16th note sub bassline. In tandem, the beautifully plucked sound of Nemnom's Quanun reveals itself in a virtuoso performance. A whispering vocal phrase emerges at the mid-point before ambient effects and subtly placed arpeggio combine in the second half to spine-tingling and immaculately crafted effect.

Gavin Griffin needs no introduction to those familiar with the progressive house sound of the past 5 years. A leading light in the underground fraternity with his performance behind the decks and near 500 production credits for the like of Anjunadeep, Balance Music and Proton Music, the Australian artist continues to push boundaries, defining the modern progressive sound. Reworking "To Follow", the GMJ remix is dripping in trademark silky smooth melodies and rolling rhythmic underpinning. Building imperceptibly, a vocal sample from Zippel and Nemnom's original creates a melodic peg from which to hang a glorious analogue synth motif. The cadenced phrase shimmers across the stereo spectrum as layer of pads and counterpoint motifs create an uplifting sonic experience. Using the fundamental harmonic themes from "To Follow", the track builds post-breakdown into a glorious sonic collage that showcases GMJ's technique and talent to the full.

Following on from the February 2022 remixes, Meanwhile now returns to Alex O'Rion's EP as "Echium Remixed, Pt. 2" continues with another trio of outstanding interpretations.

A legendary figure in the world of art, music and underground dance, Roger Martinez has been a central figure with his kaleidoscopic sound and spiritual influences. Music signed to Lost and Found, Replug and his own Higher States have confirmed this status while July 2020's "Cosmic" was a further notable highlight on Meanwhile. Now returning to GMJ and Matter's imprint, the Roger Martinez remix of "The Chase" is an uptempo offering that draws on his musical influences with a powerful beat and deep bass groove. Using pitched elements from Alex's original, vocal cuts shift in stereo-panned glory and epic white-noise risers and infinite delays create a dense swirling atmosphere. Pausing at the breakdown to introduce additional melodic elements, the track then drops back into its hypnotic groove as new melodic motifs create the aptly titled "Interdimensional Remix".

GMJ and Matter return to their flagship imprint with typical flair and aplomb. Able to point to a rich catalogue of original and remix work in both solo and collaborative guises throughout Meanwhile's two-year reign at the top of the progressive house charts, the Melbourne based duo provide a powerful and dynamic rendition of the title track. GMJ and Matter have thus taken the effects fuelled "Echium" and transformed it into a dark seething progressive house monster that lurks beneath gently pulsing waves. Serene in its build, delayed synth phrases cascade over each other in endless delay while new melodies twinkle across the mid-range in trademark-soaked reverb and elegantly stratified sonic layers. Maintaining the aural themes sculpted by Alex O'Rion in the original, GMJ and Matter have successfully navigated a new and dynamic path through the beautiful "Echium".

Imran Khan has cemented a reputation as one of the progressive house fraternity's leading lights. Almost a double century of production credits has seen remix and original music land on the likes of Mango Alley, Proton Music and Clinique, since a 2016 debut for the latter. Moreover, 2021's "Push Thru / Horizonz" and "Equinox" have delighted the Meanwhile faithful. Returning for a third remix, the Imran Khan reworking of "The Serpent" is a typically deep and atmospheric affair with huge thumping beat and cavernous bass groove dominating the low end. Capturing the flowing melodic phrasing of the original, pitched synths and pulsating white-noise risers create a thick soup of sound that evolves in bubbling sonic patterns with their origins in Alex O'Rion's impressive production technique. The resulting marriage of two musical identities finds Imran Khan once again illustrating his impressive production credentials through trademark sound design.

Another musical triptych pays tribute to the sonic diversity found in Alex O'Rion's music as Roger Martinez, GMJ and Matter and Imran Khan open up in full bloom through the towering "Echium".

Tracklist:
01. Ezequiel Arias, Nacho Varela & Cruz Vittor - Meloram (Original Mix)
02. Ezequiel Arias, Nacho Varela & Cruz Vittor - Blue Sphere (Original Mix)

Release Info: 
Opening a rift in the very fabric of time and space, Melorama twists the key for the very first time in its existence with 'Meloram / Blue Sphere'. Conjured by a dynamo of a progressive trio in Ezequiel Arias, Nacho Varela, and Cruz Vittor, the EP is a vivid representation of dreams materializing in unimaginable ways as the artists navigate through the infinite inkwell of inspiration that is art itself.

Commencing transmissions for this initial broadcast, 'Meloram' manifests undulations that fluctuate over a dense low-end as aqueous melodic spheres levitate suspended, defying gravity, expanding and bloating before bursting into a most entrancing sequence. With every chord progression, a chemical reaction occurs, offsetting a euphoric sense of effervescence as we gravitate in unison with each melodic impulse for a rapturous breakdown that challenges the very laws of physics. More than a splendid sonic exercise in a pure progressive fashion, 'Meloram' is a statement of declaration from a label that veers into the future through the echos of the past.

Gripping from the onset, B-side 'Blue Sphere' treads ethereal waters with intensifying aplomb through each passing beat, unfurling in a firm, yet gentle manner as an interstellar sonic tapestry unravels before our very eyes in hypnotizing fashion. Serene, but powerful, 'Blue Sphere' is a mesmerizing contradiction that invites listeners on a supersonic highway that stimulates the senses with its gliding frame and ever-chameleonic synthwork as we bask in its immense beauty.

Quenching a most internal need for expression, Melorama Musica's first stargate presents listeners with a chance to explore uncharted regions of the minds of its creators, disrupting the current landscape with a different vision for its past, present, and future.

Hicky & Kalo are back on their own label Plaisirs Sonores Records with a brand new two-track EP as well as a brand new artwork design for their imprint.

The title track 'Arch Of Light' is a massive track with driving drums, a rolling bassline, an emotive pad melody and a great arpeggiator. The Canadian duo tries to open the progressive house field by blending some melodic techno and electro elements into the track like the use of vocoder vocals and epic synth stabs.

The second offering 'Time We Spent Together' is an ode to remembering "the time you spent with someone that no long is part of your live". It was made during sad time for the duo and you can feel the melancholia and sadness in the melody.

All in all, it's a beautiful EP for the upcoming duo.

The collab of two of the most renowned Argentine producers resulted in what is certainly one of the most expressive releases on our label.

Evegrem and Sergio Salomone already have their names written in a memorable way in the electronic music world. By applying the sum to their sounds, they gave a brilliant shape to Catharsys: an extremely energetic theme, with a strong and striking loop, robotic and tense vocals that embellish and highlight it in a unique way with each new minute played and make this song, one of those themes that you expect to be played on a dance floor.

The remixes of this song came from two other fantastic producers, who already have creations on some of the most prominent Electronic Music labels in the world: Andrés Moris and Partenaire.

Through the talent of Andrés Moris, he shows how to lead the most diverse sensations and sonic emotions through his splendid musical vision, maintaining the characteristics of the original music and offering a different and beautiful way of exposing the instruments.

In Partenaire's version, from the first loop, this artist already presents his way of creating, maintaining a characteristic pressure of his own originals, filled with a demanding desire to express something new and giving shape to a massive interpretation in the form of a remix.

Presenting their final release of the year, Musique de Lune welcomes Juan Deminicis to the label for his debut EP. As a favourite of progressive music's top tastemakers in Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Guy J, the Argentinean artist has released on some of the genre's finest imprints over the course of his now fifteen year career. Hoomidas, Lost & Found, Replug, Souksonic and Sudbeat Music have all been regular landing spots for the talented Buenos Aires resident. Also a highly regarded DJ, Juan has programmed music for some of his country's trendiest venues, in turn sharing the stage with 16 Bit Lolitas, D-Nox, Guy J, Guy Mantzur, Jody Wisternoff and Roy Rosenfeld. With a year that has already yielded releases via Clubsonica, Mango Alley and Proton Music, Juan now steps up to Musique de Lune with a much anticipated five track showcase entitled 'Illusions'.

PREMIERE: Juan Deminicis - Illusions [Musique de Lune]

'Juicebox Music's 63rd release sees Dowden & Forty Cats teaming up for a 2-track EP featuring "Orbit" & "Airtime". Initially making her debut on our label with another collaborative EP with fellow countrymen from Russia - Meeting Molly & Mango and then following up with a single release titled "Moscow Time", Christina Gavrilova aka Forty Cats has become an integral part of our roster. While Dowden, better known to his family & friends as Brenden Dowden, recently joined the label with a remix of Alan Cerra's "Arrival" early this year. Equipped with an arsenal of techniques by being a music production instructor & inspired by a fairly wide-ranged style as well, Dowden's carved his name into becoming a household name for many fans & DJs alike. Collectively, Dowden & Forty Cats' music can be found on well established imprints like Hernan Cattaneo's 'Sudbeat', Lane 8's 'This Never Happened', Mango's 'Mango Alley', Eran Aviner's 'Edge' + GMJ & Matter's 'Meanwhile' to name a few. With this first ever collaboration between the two, Dowden & Forty Cats' delve into their strengths to create a perfect balance. Embracing a theme around space, "Orbit" gets powered by a strong drive with softer floating melodies while "Airtime" embraces the groovier side with delayed riffs swirling about with special oratory notes slotted in. 

We're excited to welcome back Alan Cerra as the sole remixer on this release. Relatively new in the industry, the Santa Cruz (Argentina) based artist has been releasing some amazing music over the past 3 years with highlighted labels such as Roger Martinez's 'Higher States', Armen Miran's 'Hoomidaas', Integral Bread's 'Univack' as well as Mike Koglin & MoodFreak's 'YOMO' to name a few. Having made his first appearance on our imprint with "Caravan" on our inaugural edition of Fables and then following up with a 2-track EP featuring "Henkere" & "Arrival", which featured a remix from Dowden, it seemed fitting to have Alan return the favour. Alan Cerra's rendition of "Airtime" retains the tonal flavour of the original's elements but with a more oomph to crank the vibe level up to eleven.'
