Following on from ‘The Light’, Ziger and Mind Conspiracy return to Eat My Hat with ‘Metamorphosis’. Released last month, ‘The Light’ saw the frequent studio partners work more magic together, creating a colourful, progressive minded composition which ranks as one of their most well received to date. Now embarking on their fourth joint production the Greek duo unveil their latest studio creation entitled ‘Metamorphosis’, alongside a remix from Alexander Savvidi.

Beginning with the pulsating grooves of the Original Mix, Ziger and Mind Conspiracy marry fluid rhythms with heady effects and astral synth phrasing. Driving percussive arrangements and timely melodic accents add nicely to its mediative pulse, before a wave of ethereal vocal gates brings a new dimension to the track. Tense and mind bending in equal measure, the main break elevates mood further through wavy modulation and haunting effects, eventually giving way to a timely build, striking crescendo and exhilarating finale.

Making his label debut and providing the lone interpretation of ‘Metamorphosis’ is Alexander Savvidi. Hailing from the South of Russia, Alexander Savvidi is a composer and live-performer who entered the electronic music underground after a decade of work in the film industry. His HOROSHO imprint has served as the primary home for his powerful rhythms and atmospheric melodies, while international tastemakers such as Eelke Kleijn and Newmand have already supported his wor. Now adding Eat My Hat to his resume, Alexander debuts on the label with a stunning rendition of ‘Metamorphosis’. Backed by a tough, techno inspired groove, Alexander’s buzzing basslines and deliberate percussion quickly appease the senses. The main themes translate well with the primary synth lead and time-stretched vocals adding their own otherworldly flair. Quirky acid lines further saturate your senses, panning across the stereo field, while playing off emotive chord changes below, and ultimately making this breakless journey incredibly satisfying. A unique and inspired remix from Alexander Savvidi, which rounds out another memorable collaboration from Ziger and Mind Conspiracy. Don’t miss it.

Presenting their second release of the year, Phenomena welcomes label boss Elias Erium back for a new EP. After taking a two-year hiatus, the Canadian artist made a welcome return to the spotlight this year. Projects for Eleatics subsidiary Aletheia Recordings and long-standing Berlin powerhouse Steyoyoke set the stage for the March release of ‘Harvester'. Coming courtesy of Phenomena, the two-track showcase revealed a more hypnotic side of the Canadian’s repertoire, in turn garnering support from underground favourites Mind Against. Continuing on an upwards trajectory, Eilas now lands back on his comfortable home of Phenomena with ‘The Grove’. 

Elias’ capacity for storytelling resonates across the title selection 'The Grove’, as obsessive rhythms and hyperspace arps blanket warm punchy beats and monolithic grooves. The Montreal resident expounds his lavish future vision here, with prophetic drones and haunting pads providing a bridge into a desolate break. Clever co-actions and spirited synth phrasing makes for an intoxicating interlude, one which exudes a prophetic mood, before confidently returning to the groove for a heads down finale.

Continuing on a shadowy monochrome are the wintry qualities of 'Food for Thought'. Full of detail and idiosyncrasies, it's a cerebral voyage where the Canadian flexes his freethinking muscles, landing comfortably between soundscape science and groove-centric rhythms. The inevitable apex of this exploratory excursion mounts with shape-shifting layers and spiralling effects converging across an expansive break, achieving a thoughtful, austere timbre, before a melancholic lead sets the course for a cosmic conclusion. It rounds out an excellent EP from the Phenomena label boss, and preludes more good things to come as we approach the summer season.

With 'Cacus' we're excited to welcome back Paul Sawyer to ICONYC featuring a couple of fantastic remixes courtesy of Mononoid & Slam Duck who bring us their take on Paul's new single. Paul has developed a universally loved unique style; a dynamic, groovy, deep and hypnotic fusion of genres that perfectly fits in any kind of club or open-air festival. Paul releases have always received high acclaim - with support across the board from the who is who is in the world of electronic music.

Paul who knows a thing or two when it comes to mind blowing productions, delivers an irresistible track that kicks things off nicely with the melancholic vibes setting the tone. He roams effortlessly through progressive inspired melodies, while the sultry chords sit wonderfully on top of the driving percussive foundation. Paul takes it up a notch by adding an extra layer of depth, whilst upping the flow with cleverly programmed drumming and his trademark FX elements, without destroying the essence of the main groove. His work deserves to be branded 'essential' in any sense of the word.

On remix duty we welcome back label all-stars Mononoid after their hugely successful recent releases. Mononoid who are known for their driving and refined sound, keep the ethereal theme of the original alive, as the pulsating bass powers along, before its drum fills and general drive all combine to do the talking. Like something from yesteryear yet sounding totally fresh - This massive touch up takes the energy quantities up a level and increases the drive with stripped back and lucid elements, before the energetic groove creates a blanket of warmth that will put a smile on your face.

The second remix comes courtesy of Slam Duck, who brings a more uplifting edge to 'Cacus'. His rework creates a good feel vibe from the word go, as the atmospheric and driving vibe keeps you moving with warm tinkling sounds, a smooth edge and some nicely effected sounding pieces that keeps building to culminate into a lovely melodic groover. We basically have the formula for a bit of a monumental outing. The sparseness is the key here, as this restrained gem works its magic while it plays away, creating a stunning glow. 

With the talent on offer, Paul Sawyer's 'Cacus' manages to deliver a message of sustained musical relevance in emphatic fashion to warm the soul. Not to be missed! Paul Sawyer's 'Cacus' sees a worldwide release on July 20th, 2020 via all well-known digital content providers. Not to be missed!
