Dee Montero – Maya (Rodriguez Jr. Remix) [Futurescope] An artist always in evolution with a catalogue welcoming material via All Day I Dream, Knee Deep In Sound and Anjunadeep, Dee Montero remains a favourite for many of the scene’s biggest names - from Pete Tong through to Lee Burridge and Solomun. Following a fruitful 2021 with releases via Renaissance, Stereo Productions, and his own Futurescope imprint, the Belfast-born DJ, producer and label boss now returns to home turf to unveil the label’s first material of the year. Showcasing the first look into his forthcoming major project for 2022, scheduled for early summer and to be announced later this year, February welcomes the hypnotic sonics of latest single ‘Maya’ accompanied by a remix from French talent and Mobilee regular Rodriguez Jr. Balancing rich organic percussion with sweeping melodies, entrancing vocals and swirling atmospherics, ‘Maya’ reveals a powerful, resonant production perfect for late-nights right through to the early morning hours. In contrast, Rodrig Read More
Deorbiting – Veil (Oliver Koletzki Remix) [Stil Vor Talent] Volume two taken from Deorbiting's latest long-player "Space House", here comes "Veil" EP, featuring two cuts from the album plus an exclusive rework from SVT bossman himself, Oliver Koletzki. A low-slung downtempo ballad into serene mental scapes and vast expanses of sound, "Veil " will tickle the fancy of all those in search for meditation both on and off the dance floor with its adaptative groove, at ease both in club context and home alone, whether the sun shines bright outside or when you want that sensitive touch of Deorbiting sending you into the zone effortlessly. In the hands of Oliver Koletzki, "Veil" finds itself endowed with the impact of a bullet. Take the original's infectious melody, add a bodybuilded bass, crank the tempo up a notch - or two, a few tweakings to the synths here and there, Koletzki's mystique-imbued vision and you got a tune that's just a proper festival smasher. Merging vocodized lines a la Space Art with a sturdy yet flexile bass lead to rally all d Read More
Jonas Saalbach – Cellophane Feat. SANDHAUS (Magit Cacoon Remix) [Radikon] 'Headlights' was Jonas Saalbach's debut album on his own label, and our most ambitious and anticipated Radikon release for 2021. Catalog number 41 features three reimaginations of some of the album's most memorable tracks with Fur Coat, Magit Cacoon, and Henry Saiz on remix duty. Fur Coat's rework of 'Headlights' gears the original's monumental orchestra of synths squarely towards the club. Forceful arpeggios set to hovering strings frame Angus Powell's angelic vocals, and transform Jonas' anthemic electronica track into pure dancefloor energy. Magit Cacoon's take on 'Cellophane' is an exercise in superlatives. Infusing the original with commandingly sharp synths and blips, her rendition effortlessly oscillates between mesmerizing atmospheres and a commanding, sub-heavy groove to create a true peak-time weapon. Pure ecstasy and feel-good grooviness are the protagonists in Henry Saiz' version of 'Changing'. Carefree organ chords, funky synths, and the chorus-laden beauty of Lu Read More
Miss Monique – Elamy [Siona] Global progressive house tastemaker Miss Monique is back on her own label with its mighty 100th release.

Her DJ sets, productions, and label have invigorated the scene and she is never far from the top of the Beatport Charts or some exotic party location. This new tune is suitably huge for the 100th release. Elamy is a superb groove with rolling drums and well designed video game style synths.

Elamy is another epic track that is sure to unite dance floors all over the world.

Habischman – A Dream Within A Dream (Late Night Mix) [Fayer] Pretty much all of us know the movie “Inception”, right? Habischman wanted to create a song following this concept so when he bumped into Brydon Hulse from Skymachine they got into the studio and magic happened. A Dream Within A Dream was recorded in London with a HA-872 microphone and mixed with an old analog desk, giving this characteristic sound to the song, after a 1-hour jam between Habischman and Brydon. Isn’t this magic? Remixing this gem, Edu Imbernon in an unexpected journey to the 80’s sounds blended with flying melodies and a huge breakdown. Aera is the second name for remixing. He loves the idea of dreams within dreams. Actually the idea of the main synth sound came to his mind one morning while waking up. It was only a matter of recording it! Closing the release, a special 4/4 edit of the original for the late-night sounds lovers. https://soundcloud.com/progressiveastronaut/premiere-habischman-a-dream-within-a-dream-late-night-mix-fayer https://y Read More
