People often use the term ‘family’ these days, especially record labels; it’s a go to word that’s frequently over-used. But when it comes to Julian Wassermann & Raphael Mader it is highly appropriate as both are an important part of the Renaissance label roster with multiple releases to their names, ably demonstrating the future of house is in safe hands.

So, Renaissance were delighted when they got a call saying, “Guys, we’re teaming-up to start a new project devoted to electronica. Are you interested?” Their response was immediate to say the least, buoyed by the prospect of the label-family circle pulling tighter still... MODEM was born!

However, not satisfied with the strength of their burgeoning status, Julian and Raph decided to go a step further and invited heavyweight French production duo Betical to collaborate on what was to become ‘Marginal’, the first single taken from their forthcoming album, ‘Fahrenheit 52’.

'Marginal' was one of the first ideas we had,” explains Julian, “it’s a record full of wistful emotion and melancholy with that deep, dream-like quality that works so well with electronica.”

“We’ve both admired Betical for a long time,” Raph continues, “when they agreed to the collaboration we began by sending various sketches back and forth and they actually picked out ‘Marginal’”.

Betical then wasted no time in confirming their choice, “We immediately loved the track’s atmosphere and chord progression. We worked on a drum, added some melodies and a vocal and then kicked it back and forth until we all agreed it was over the finish line. We really enjoyed working with the guys and are proud of the final result!”

PREMIERE: Cora M - Touche Moi (Dragomir Remix) [KUSH082]

'Darin Epsilon's Perspectives Digital imprint picks up the pace in 2019 with its 66th release! UK duo Collective States return to the label with their highly anticipated "Cloud Jumper" EP. 

With a rich musical heritage to their name, Dan Reid and Gary Benetton have hit the ground running under their Collective States production moniker. The past two years have continued to see a clutch of high-profile releases on Stil Vor Talent, Toolroom, Knee Deep in Sound, and Selador, placing Collective States at the vanguard of the underground dance scene. The duo is supported by a galaxy of A-listers including Sasha, John Digweed, Carl Cox, Pete Tong, and James Zabiela. Furthermore, their breakout hit "Planet Mongo" was picked up by Carl Cox for BBC Radio 1 and remixed by the iconic Alan Fitzpatrick. 

After a standout remix of Blaktone in May 2018, they return to Perspectives with a debut original EP for the label. "Cloud Jumper" revels in a shuffling percussive groove, pounding beat, and grooved clave riff that lay the foundations for a hypnotic arpeggio to filter into sonic range as it builds in intensity to the midpoint breakdown. Rising and falling with veritable ease, the track explodes into life in the second half with the arpeggio cutting through the mix like an acetylene torch. 

Fueled by a similar percussive groove, "Graded" keeps the energy high with its combination of 808 shakers and open hats. A throbbing bassline plays its part in creating a club-friendly cut that hits its stride with an analog arpeggiated riff. Haunting vocal phrases and textured pads then create a strong juxtaposition. Building effortlessly into the breakdown and beyond, all rhythmic and melodic elements combine in the second half to impressive effect.'

Premiere: Collective States - Graded [Perspectives Digital]

November 2018's "Life on the Moon" confirmed Juan Deminicis' status in the upper echelons of the underground dance scene. Remixes from Argentina and Europe now continue the journey on Particles.

Lucas Rossi has been an impressive contributor to Argentina's underground dance scene for almost a decade. From his Cordoba home, a residency at "Bianca Espacio Electronica" saw impressive performances with Darin Epsilon, Matias Chilano and Deminicis himself, while gigs across South America have seen him perform on the same bill as Jimmy Van M, Dave Seaman and Eelke Klein. A production career that has seen over a century of credits hit a stream of high-profile imprints after a 2014 debut for Suffused Music, has since found Rossi's work on the likes of Songbird and Balkan Connection, while a further notable highlight was an appearance on Nick Warren's The Soundgarden with the "Adversities" EP in May 2018.

A pair of Particles remixes for Lanvary in October 2017 and Kynan Cosma in September 2018 are now joined by a third as Lucas Rossi delivers a compelling rework. Paying tribute to Deminicis' track, the refrains of the original create a familiar framework before the melodic phrasing so central to "Life on the Moon" cleverly lifts itself out of the rhythmic groove. A strong beat, white-noise washes and airy pads create extra depth in a strong remix.

Striving to be an "original and unique artist, with his own style of music", Filip Abramczyk has been a standout performer in Poland's underground dance scene. Through his Pysh moniker, the Warsaw resident hit the headlines after winning a remix competition for Booka Shade's "Regenerate" and going on to perform regularly across Poland and Europe alongside Robert Babicz, Kolombo and Josh Wink. This springboard for success has led to over 250 production credits sitting proudly next to the Pysh name with an album and vinyl release for Einmusika high on a list of achievements. A regular for the label, other work has seen him featured on such heavyweights as Get Physical, Manjumasi and Steyoyoke.

A spirited Particles debut remixing Rudy UK in June 2018 quickly saw the release of the five-track, "Ballada" some three months later, as remixes from Matias Chilano and Christian Hornbostel added to a trio of impressive original tracks. Now returning, the Pysh remix of "Tao the King" takes the pulsating bassline of the original and uses it form the basis of a rhythmic groove foundation that anchors the tracks against a collage of panned shakers and closed hats. Building with consummate ease a chorus of melodies firmly rooted in the original make their presence felt at the breakdown. With clever production technique and a swathe of original production material Pysh has created a unique and impressive remix.

Remixes from Lucas Rossi and Pysh have continued to showcase "Life on the Moon" for Juan Deminicis.
