A duo with a strong connection to the Proton Music archives, LADS return to the label with another stunning EP. This time with the added talents of Stephan Pokorny, "A Million Faces" sees two original tracks combine with remixes from Mass Digital and Cream. Three original EPs dating back to the September 2017 "Miss Jean" debut, May 2018's "Hagel" and "Stoyote" in June 2020, confirmed the German / South African duo as one of underground dance's most exciting talents. Now returning, "A Million Faces" is a delicate melodic gem that sees a haunting male vocal line play a central role as it delicately sings a romantic verse at the mid-point. Either side, a rolling percussive groove builds supremely with subtle energy as a barely heard loop hints at the vocal to come. Organic instrumentation creates another motif that adds to the sonic collage as a swathe of new sounds, pitched effects and vocal reprise create a memorable and sparkling track. The partner track is once again characterised by a distinctive rolling groove comprised of organic percussion sounds. A stuttered, vocal cut propels "Liberia" to the front of the sonic stage as fizzing pads and a beautifully cadenced chord syncopates in smooth hypnotic fashion. Full of musical variation, "Liberia" waxes and wanes easily as the hypnotic backdrop and swathe of new motifs and effected elements create an innovative an original piece.

With a motto that expounds "music speaks louder than words", Mass Digital is a name that has risen to prominence over a 15-year period and some 700 production credits to his name. From Pacha and Tiger Recordings to Hoomidaas and All Day I Dream, the Serbian artist has carved out a sizeable reputation with his distinctive and finely honed production work. Now making his Proton Music debut, the Mass Digital remix of "A Million Faces" is a tour deforce. Retaining the original's percussive groove and melodic character, an array of new production material is introduced that immaculately complements the work of LADS and Stephan Pokorny, not least through beautiful new piano chords and a strings-fuelled backdrop. Building in energy through its phases, the vocal so central to the original, cuts a recurring theme as piano and strings develop in magnificent fashion.

The final remix sees the return of DJ and producer, Cream. A seasoned performer behinds the decks across his homeland, the Polish artist has spent a decade honing his production skills, at first in collaboration with Deep Fog and latterly in solo guise for the likes of Sprout, Juicebox Music and Strange Town Recordings. A regular on Particles since mid-2014, 2021's "Rubikon" on Proton Music was a notable highlight. Remixes for GMJ & Matter, Trilucid and Andrea Cassino are now followed by a typically energised reworking of "A Million Faces". Infused with a driving bassline pattern, new melodies appear courtesy of a gradually emerging arpeggio. Progressing with dancefloor energy, the ethereal vocal from the original makes an appearance at the mid-point before the fusion of vibrant bass groove, heavy beat and new melodic variations blossom into a progressive house gem.

Presenting their music in dazzling new directions, Stephan Pokorny & LADS reveal "A Million Faces" with remixes from Mass Digital and Cream.

Graumann is presenting to the audience two tracks, 'Class' and 'Veins', which he has been holding onto for about a year, trying out at every performance, and both have received high praise on the dance floor. Especially 'Class', a valuable piece that found its place in Solomun's sets throughout last summer. These two tracks have the potential to become indispensable in DJ sets this summer.
