Mango Alley celebrates their landmark 300th release this week with the exceptional 'Awakening' from Kostya Outta, backed by remixes from Hernan Cattaneo & Marcelo Vasami and Ruben Karapetyan & Supacooks. To celebrate the release, label boss Mango has looked back on the imprint's extensive catalog and selected his top ten milestone releases which have contributed to the evolution of Mango Alley. Enjoy!

'Awakening' is available now via Mango Alley: https://lnk.to/ALLEY300

1. KOSTYA OUTTA - Awakening (Hernan Cattaneo & Marcelo Vasami Remix)

Our Anniversary 300th release and I could think of no other name to celebrate it with than the Maesto himself - Hernan Cattaneo! Joined by Marcelo Vasami (who I'm also very happy to welcome to the label) they delivered an undisputable anthemic hit! Now we need to start thinking about a proper continuation on ALLEY400 ;}

2. D-NOX & BECKERS - Control (James Harcourt Remix)

When Christian (D-Nox) sent me the original "Control" as a demo for MA, I immediately knew this has to be a special release. The duo's music held a special place in my heart for a long time, and being able to release them on Mango Alley had to be presented as a real milestone, so we made it our Anniversary 200th release. What really brought the release to another level is this flawless remix by James Harcourt - a man of incomparable production skills!

3. RYAN DAVIS - Aeons (Mango Remix)

For our 100th Anniversary release we had a pleasure of featuring Ryan Davis and his "Aeons" track. Inspired by Ryan's exquisite production, I decided to work on my own remix and gave the original a bit of a raw and dark vibe.

4. DAN SIEG - Something's Not Clicking Right (Quivver Remix)

One of the remix works John (Quivver) did for us, and this particular remix has that 100% Quivver trademark style. A timeless sound. It's a personal milestone for me as a HUGE Quivver fan from back in the early 2000s!

5. RUBEN KARAPETYAN & MANGO - Golden Age (Anthony Pappa & Jamie Stevens Remix)

Anthony Pappa's Nubreed Compilation is among my all-time favorite mixed albums, Anthony is definitely a one-of-a-kind DJ and a man of exceptional taste. And a team of him and Jamie Stevens is something any progressive house fan would dream of! The fact that the original is co-produced by me makes this remix very dear and special to me.

6. WEEKEND HEROES - Off Limit (Cid Inc. Remix)

An already-iconic progressive house figure Cid Inc. remixes another acclaimed progressive house & melodic techno act Weekend Heroes - I think that's already enough to call this release a milestone ;} We've been close friends and business partners with Henri (Cid Inc.) for a very long time, and I'm very honored to feature one of his most beautiful remixes on Mango Alley!

7. RUBEN KARAPETYAN - Aphrodite (Nick Warren & Nicolas Rada Remix)

No milestones list would be complete without mentioning Nick's name - the influence Nick Warren has on the whole electronic music scene is hard to overestimate. Together with Nicolas Rada they created a gorgeous journey of a remix with enchanting melodies, long buildups and an organic combination of breakbeat and 4x4 beats.

8. MAX GRAHAM & SECOND SINE - Hypercube

It's now safe to say the long-awaited return of Max Graham to progressive house happened on Mango Alley! "Hypercube" is a big milestone not only for the label, but for the scene as well, in fact the whole pack is very solid with all the amazing remixes we've managed to gather for this release.

9. DAN SIEG - They Won't Find You (King Unique Remix)

King Unique is a real progressive house phenomena, and this remix is probably one of his most amazing pieces! A very elegant combination of elements from different genre that drew a beautiful and captivating progressive house picture!

10. GEORGE ALHABEL & MANGO - Backsight (Nick Muir Remix)

The real scene legend Nick Muir remixing my collab track with the talented George Alhabel - what could be better! Nick stayed true to his sound and delivered a dancefloor stormer of a remix! Definitely one of my personal milestones!
