"Some fires burn loud… others burn deep. Up in Flames is the slow ignition a hypnotic bassline, a groove that breathes, a story told between beats.
Not every blaze is meant to consume… some are meant to guide you through the night."
From the heart of New York’s underground, tech CEO turned DJ/producer SECR3T KEY delivers an indie dance cut that’s as magnetic as it is introspective. With a deep, weighty bassline and a hypnotic groove, Up in Flames walks the fine line between dancefloor fire and late-night reflection.
Crafted for both the burners and the house-techno faithful, this track invites you to lose yourself in its steady burn,  to feel the pulse, follow the story, and let the night write its own ending.
🎧 Up in Flames is out on August 22nd on La Perle Records.

Tyler Mesa - Erathia EP [TOR005]
Release Date - 11.06.20
Stream - https://xyzlabel.lnk.to/erathia

As we enter the somber and chilled autumn months in Montreal, we are lucky to find such warmth in the strength of the local music scene. The city has always been a hub for electronic producers, with a network of support and talent unlike anywhere else in the world. Even when the dance community is quieted as events are on pause, there is a lot to be proud of as Montrealers continue to exert excellence in the studio.

Tyler Mesa is the latest artist whom we have grown very excited about. The Montrealer has been able to craft a genuinely unique sound; avoiding the guise of sounding like the rest, Mesa is firmly asserting his own sound as he continues his journey into the international scene.

We are thrilled to have Tyler on board for the next TOR project, the Erathia EP. On display is a sound deeply rooted in trance and techno roots, yet full of innovative flair. The EP represents Mesa's departure in a space where he will explore his influences and introspections, the results of which will be heard throughout the When We Dip labels.

As we reach the pinnacle of the EP, Memoridea and Rising Sun bring immense energy and grit through progressive basslines and rich synth-work. Dancefloor weapons steal the show, as we welcome club-centric sounds into the fold.

Petar Dundov has made an impressive mark on Proton Music thus far with a pair of typically high-class remixes. Reworkings of Simos Tagias and Huminal in September 2019 and 2020 has seen the Croatian become a welcome figure on the label. Returning to the flagship imprint after releasing the glorious new "Ghostmachine" EP with Gregor Tresher on Dubfire's SCI+TEC imprint in October 2020, Petar's debut solo offering for Proton Music sees the beautiful "Salvation / Nature of Nature" take centre stage.

"Salvation" is a typically smooth and melodious offering that glitters with delayed analogue synth lines and syncopated bass pattern. Building in seamless fashion atmospheric pads and a squelching 303-inspired lead line add intrigue and dancefloor character before counterpoint lines emerge at the mid-point. In tandem, a driving beat and rapid-fire hi-hat percussion create a stunning hypnotic framework. "Nature of Nature" lilts gently along with cleverly programmed bass patterns and percussive wood-block groove that hints at verdant jungle atmosphere. Subtle melodic lines sit atop in shimmering arrays and the 303 character contributes to the EP narrative while stereo-panned pads add class through emotive chord changes.

An award-winning iconic figure with two ARIAs to his name with band, Infusion, Jamie Stevens has been a welcome addition to the Proton family with his trademark sound and meticulous production methods. A global touring schedule and a regular on the likes of Bedrock, Lost & Found and Replug saw the Australian remix Rudy's "All Things Fade" for Proton Music in late 2019 while a reworking of Sam Hopgood's "Lobster" in May 2020 saw an impressive Particles debut. Now returning, the aptly titled "Deeper Version" finds Jamie Stevens present a glorious take on "Nature of Nature" as the subtle melodic flourishes of the original ripple across a backdrop of glittering arpeggio and swathes of additional production material. A new lead line swims across the stereo spectrum as a combination of open cutoff filters and textured pads create a wonderful zenith at the mid-point. A rolling beat and percussion adds head-shaking groove to proceedings in an inspiring new interpretation.

Following on the footsteps of their "Astral" EP in May 2020, Trilucid & Phil Martyn have become firm favourites with the Proton cognoscenti. Via the original and standout remixes from Dmitry Molosh and Bluum, the trio built upon success garnered from a pair of remixes for Stas Drive in March 2019 and Pole Folder's "Serengeti" in April 2020. Now returning to the label, Trilucid & Phi Martyn have produced a gloriously melodic reworking of Dundov's title track as their combined talent produce a dark and sinister vibe that drives effortlessly a grooved bass pattern. An enhanced 303 synth line adds weight and acetylene-torch edge to proceedings as clever use of original components, plus a swathe of original production material, create a dynamic remix that opens up with smooth harmonious tones at the mid-point and into the third movement. The result is another high-calibre offering from the seasoned UK artists.

Offering "Salvation" via a pair of new original track and remixes from Jamie Stevens, Trilucid & Phil Martyn, Petar Dundov has provided a musical force of nature.

'African Electronic band, Bantwana’s are back again shortly after the recent success with their last release, ‘Gus & Lib EP’ on their own Bantwanas Kollektiv imprint, that saw them soaring to new heights. Their latest release is nothing short of what you’d expect from the global charting group and this time they’ve enlisted the skills of leading Cologne-based DJ and producer Tim Engelhardt to remix the title track off their EP, ‘In Silence’.

First up, Tim Engelhardt flips the original on its head, whilst skillfully maintaining the elegance of the original with his remix of ‘In Silence’. Lively acoustic drum patterns, ghostly pads and a playful synth melody encompass the lush vocals of the original while commanding a more upbeat variation on the tempo of the original.

Next up, Bantwanas set things off with a mesmerizing downtempo electronica track, ‘In Silence’. Embellished with hauntingly soulful vocals, organic African rhythms and an endearing melody, that sees Bantwana’s drive for perfection and creative exploration come head to head in this masterpiece. Closing off the EP with a class that has become known from these two artists, leaving you with a sense of what’s to come from them in the future.'
