After a necessary pause to organize our thoughts, we return stronger than ever with the 28th reference for our catalogue. We welcome Nickon Faith, a young UK producer based in Manchester, who creates a progressive and melodic atmosphere in “Flow With You”. 
Indeed, as a child, he was first influenced by Tangerine Dream, and more recently, by artists the likes of Bicep and Bonobo. 

The sounds’ originality and the subtle female voices fill with melancholy a straightforward elegant House Groove. As for the end of the EP, we rely on two of our favourite artists from the SD crew. 
Luis Palomo is an expert at leaving one speechless. Ludowick re-invents the original song, in this occasion, with an amazing big fat break 90s piano tune. 

Pedro Sanmartín is in top form, as his last year releases prove. The Norway-based artist delivers a deep epic heavenly version, twisting and detuning arpeggios.

Rolling into summer of ’21 with a medley of Trance is Dublin-based artist @sharpsonmusic signing Planet Love onto Zone Focus for the label’s eighth release. The four-tracker EP pays homage to the famed Irish festival, mainlining 140bpm energy with hefty drums and euphoric overtones. An ultra-modern sound resonates throughout the project, enabling a diverse listening experience in the process.

The name comes from the Northern Irish dance music festival PlanetLove, which over the years hosted the likes of Tiesto, Paul van Dyke, John Digweed and Gabriel & Dresden. The EP is a homage to the old school trance anthems from the likes of the Gatecrasher, In Search of Sunrise and Ministry of Sound albums. It brings those early melodic Trance influences and contextualises them into a contemporary sound.

The four-tracker EP pays homage to the famed Irish festival, mainlining 140bpm energy with hefty drums and euphoric overtones. An ultra-modern sound resonates throughout the project, enabling a diverse listening experience in the process.

Kicking off the release, Planet Love locks in audiophiles with intense rhythms and a blend of shadowy vocals matched against rising keys. Kamen Rider keeps the rapid pace with notes of acid peeking through energetic synth lines. Hard Techno elements take the stage in Dreamer Dreamer, unequivocally made for big festival consumption. As a final tribute, Oxegen was named for the event that carried on Planet Love’s legacy and closes the EP with one last crescendo filled with harpy electricity.

The name comes from the Northern Irish dance music festival PlanetLove, which over the years hosted the likes of Tiesto, Paul van Dyke, John Digweed and Gabriel & Dresden.
