Beautiful rich deepness right from its opening bars

Prog Tech/Groove

In October 2020, GMJ released his debut solo EP on the Meanwhile imprint. “Mood Medicine” thus provided a tantalising glimpse into the Australian maestro’s musical soul with three original tracks of the highest order. Returning to the EP, a trio of remixes provides new insight courtesy of Paul Kardos, Sebastian Sellares and fellow label-head, Matter.

 

An artist with a rich array of music to his name, Paul Kardos has seen his work featured on such esteemed imprints as Balkan Connection, Soundteller Records and Darin Epsilon’s Perspectives Digital. Making his Meanwhile debut, the Hungarian artist impresses with a deep and powerful reworking of the title track. Intelligently making use of original components central to GMJ’s original, a glorious new melodic theme flows across “Mood Medicine” in sparkling fashion. Redolent in reverb and delay, sonic textures cascade across the left/right spectrum as new arpeggiated sequences and counterpoint phrases emerge in the third movement. A heavy beat and effervescent percussive groove add further to a powerful statement of intent from the Paul Kardos studio.

 

Fresh from the success of his “Dunes at Dawn” EP on Meanwhile, Sebastian Sellares has been at the vanguard of a fresh and modern progressive house sound since a debut for PHW Elements in 2018. Going on to see his music signed to UV, Or Two Strangers and Proton Music, his “Zen State” EP for the latter was a notable highlight in October 2020. Returning to Meanwhile, the Sebastian Sellares remix of “Precipice” oozes class as the familiar bouncing bassline and central melodic theme of the original envelope the listener. Building with ease, white-noise effects pulsate gently alongside a rolling groove and deep resonant kick as melodic sequences filter into sonic range, highlighted by a stripped back and spine-tingling breakdown.

 

Matty Doyle needs little introduction with his Matter production pseudonym. A regular across the finest underground dance imprints from Cid Inc.’s Replug to Roger Martinez’s Higher States and the renowned Balance Music, the Melbourne resident continues to dine at underground dance music’s top table with an inimitable blend of “deep synth lines, driving bass and pulsating rhythms”. November 2020 saw Matter debut on the Meanwhile imprint with his “Amanita” EP as he now returns to remix his friend, production partner and label co-owner. Reworking “Rite of Passage”, a trademark smorgasbord of rich and evocative soundscapes wash over the listener as glistening melodic lines flow enticingly atop. A chorus of effects pan the stereo spectrum in dizzying glory as themes inherent in GMJ’s original reveal themselves with ease. The result is another masterpiece of sonic seduction from the Matter studios.

Beloved for his combination of groove and melody, Orsen returns to Cid Inc’s Replug Records for a new artist showcase. Hailing from the UK, but currently calling Austria home, Orsen has been one of his country’s premiere progressive house producers for the better part of a decade. On the strength of early tracks such as ‘Look Twice’ and ‘Gyre’, Orsen forged a relationship with Replug which has seen him develop into one of the label’s core artists, while also operating as its manager and A&R. Noted for his meticulous detail and timeless dance floor productions, Orsen's craft has continued to evolve since his 2015 debut, making each one of his creations an absorbing experience. Genre tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren and Guy J have been steadfast with support along the way; while Balance, Mango Alley and Proton Music have also served as home’s for Orsen’s elusive sound. Now, following an eighteen month hiatus, Orsen returns to his comfortable home of Replug with a much-anticipated three-track showcase entitled ‘Night Visions’.

Orsen’s craft shines through vividly on EP opener and title selection ‘Night Visions’. With a saga-like story to tell, its looping hypnotism and smooth rebounding rhythms are cleverly coaxed, making for a powerful club track that splits time between the energetic and emotive. Not without grandiose flair; it’s a big, bold and magnificent break which sits at the core of the journey, flowing through percolating arps and retro-overlays, tactfully building tension as waves of drums spearhead a pulsating finale.

The space-dance foray 'Afterlight' follows and further cements Orsen's dancefloor minded ethos. Its neo-saccharine drive is anchored by rocketing beats and percussive rides, tastefully building to a wild-eyed intensity of prismatic arps and soaring synths. With an energy that exudes confidence, Orsen pulls from his expansive repertoire as the main break takes shape, infusing shimmering synth swagger with warm key-changing basslines for the ultimate dancefloor rush.

Rounding out the release and sitting on a modern progressive perch of its own are the fresh aesthetics and eager optimism of ‘Hope'. Here, Orsen’s pristine design and dreamlike elegance conjure up utopian visions, while a bed of pulsating beats and swaying percussion provide a bridge into a thoughtful second act. Further revealing Orsen’s creative attitude, the feel-good interlude breaks into a rich textural rain of melodic colour, one where euphoria awaits with arms raised and eyes closed.

Operating at the peak of his creative powers, Orsen continues to impress with his latest Replug offering, a three-track showcase where his melodic acumen is clear and gripping throughout.

Every year on the Playa brings new lessons. Some are complex, some are simple reminders. For the two of us this past year, the message was "back to basics." As hyper-analytical DJs, we're prone to focusing on performance from a critical viewpoint: did we gauge the energy level correctly, were our transitions dialed in? But this year, playing after the sunrise on Friday, seeing so many friends and campmates out for a morning dance reminded that the point of all this is a simple one: coming together and sharing moments of joy. A wonderful and welcome wake-up call. Thanks to Robot Heart for setting the stage!

PREMIERE : Guy J - Lamur ( Ben Deeper Remix ) [ Choon.co ]

March 2017's "Lost Again" once again saw Canadian Tim Penner at his vibrant best. With its beautiful melodic phrasing and glorious vocal layers, the title track was a highlight in Proton Music's release schedule, going on to see remixes from Subandrio and Simos Tagias. As Yin and Yang now return to the EP, two new interpretations from the USA and Russia provide renewed anticipation.

Burning brightly in early 2018, New York City's Mir Omar "Suddenly" hit the headlines for Solarstone's Pure Progressive imprint. Seeing his work supported by the leading DJ elite including Hernan Cattaneo and Aly & Fila, Omar himself is no stranger to life behind the decks as his sets "create the perfect catalyst to intoxicate a crowd." With appearances at such famous NYC hotspots as Cielo, Output and Schimanski, Mir Omar looks set to continue his impressive DJ career with further success in the production arena. 

Making his debut for Yang, the Mir Omar remix has all the hallmarks of a gloriously smooth and emotive piece that revels with coruscating string sequences that herald Tim's vocal lines. Using the melodies central to the original, Mir's remix extends them into new and exciting directions as they build in the breakdown before erupting in the third movement with heavy kick and subatomic bassline. A ticking percussive cadence adds further interest in a remix that is an exciting glimpse of the U.S. producer's future.

Tracklist:
01. D-Nox & Beckers - Bitter Rain (Original Mix)
02. D-Nox & Beckers - Bitter Rain (Cid Inc. Remix)
03. D-Nox & Beckers - Bitter Rain (Nico Morano Remix)

Release Info: 
Beat Boutique reaches its landmark 100th release, and amazing achievement in this day and age. The label celebrate in fine style with a release from label favourites D-Nox & Beckers, plus two hot remixes courtesy of Cid Inc. and Nico Morano!

D-Nox and Beckers have been a mainstay of the underground scene, for longer than either of them probably would care to remember, and seemingly getting more successful and more popular as time goes by. Both sucessful individually and as part of the dynamic duo, with releases gracing Tronic, Innervisions, Watergate, Selador and Sprout to name just a few.

'Bitter Rain' is a melodic and dirty workout, with harmonies meeting grittiness, and subtleness meeting pure filth. A solid trrack that is as fresh as a daisy, yet has nods to yesteryear. A seriously accomplished dance floor monster.

Re-Plug boss Cid Inc. steps up first on remix duties, as he continues to develop his own DJ and production career. His remix is a biggie, and in his hallmark vibe, he delivers a throbbing rework. Big bass and plenty of drive, and great utilisation of the melody, keeping us waiting for the big key changes. A monster rework

Nico Morano has been causing quite a fuss in recent years, with amazing roof top gigs and quirky locations gaining international attention. His label Atmosphere has been gaining in stature, and his releases on Sincopat, KATTERMUKKE and Récits de Mars have increased his popularity. Nico adds an air of sophistication to his rework, yet still packing a serious punch!

With their first collaborative project Alex O'Rion and Antrim debut on Roger Martinez's Higher States with 'Imagine'. Hailing from the Netherlands and Argentina respectively, Alex and Antrim have found favour amongst progressive music tastemakers Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren, while finding a home on Sudbeat Music, Hope Recordings and Cid inc's Replug Records. Now presenting their first ever joint productions, Alex and Antrim present a two track artist showcase via Roger Martinez's Higher States.

Alex and Antrim show the fruits of two artistic minds coming together on the title cut 'Imagine'. Fluid and inviting, it's well contoured groove is full of character, shape and warmth; while a band of hip-swinging rhythms put your emotional centres on high. Ghostly fragments add an air of anticipation, perfecting setting up a cascading lead theme which effortlessly weaves it's way in and out of the framework. Lying gently below surface, it's emotive charm is hard to resist, juxtaposed against a storyboard of timely effects, before rising to prominence following an expertly executed break.

The companion piece 'Round Trip' follows a similar sonic ethos but with a dubbier quality overall. In crafting a smooth rolling groove, the cross-continental duo have fashioned another powerful foundation, complemented with hypnotic pulses and percussive drive. Ethereal in design and poignant in delivery, harmonic phrases descend over the framework, carrying the piece into a hopeful second act, before getting washed away in a rush of beats and drums for a pulsating finale. It caps off a hugely successful collaborative project from two of progressive music's most beloved talents, making for another outstanding offering from Roger Martinez's Higher States.
