With his new EP Planet Of The Simius - the first track of his upcoming album – he followed the way to create his very own sound. Kid Simius lives for the moment and he makes music for the moment – so a track is born which will make your day more easy and the night seriously peaceful and unique.

We can't be happier with this fantastic release on Beatfreak. Addiktive Cikle EP by the pioneer Betoko & Haze-M consists of 2 great original tracks and 2 great interpretations by Nick Muir and Morttagua. Betoko and Haze-M show us an incredible collaboration where “Addiktive Cikle” is a killer mix with an addictive and modern beat, with housy and acid niche, where the progy melody comes and evolves and then appears a new fascinating element that comes after the drop as an unfinished story. “Homesick” is a melancholic melody on top of progressive bass that lead to unexpected break. On the another hand is the interpretation of “Addiktive Cikle” provided by Nick Muir making his debut on Beatfreak. Taking the essential elements from the original and putting his own touch, Nick Muir delivered for us super dancy remix version. Concluding the release with “Homesick”, remixed by the Brazilian Melodic House & Techno top DJ and producer Morttagua. His finest touc

Hailing from Tunisia, Haze-M has been leading the wave of nu-progressive producers this past year and has been dominating the Beatport charts in the process. His ideas are fresh, bold and exciting, which has lead to support from the worlds finest DJs. We caught up with him for an exclusive interview on the cusp of his Beatfreak Recordings debut. Hi Hazem, thanks for joining us, tell us a bit about yourself, how did you discover electronic music and what led you down the path of wanting to be a producer and DJ? Hey, thanks for the invite! First of all I’m a computer geek. I did not come from any music background. I grew up listening to Arabic music, R&B, rock and roll, the usual. When I was young, I would try out any computer software I could get my hands on. The first experience I had with music software was on FruityLoops. (FL Studio). I didn’t know anything about electronic music, its styles or genres. I was just experimenting and making ideas. I was fascinated by the

After D.Y.A's and Kalyma's collaboration for Solide's eights catalogue number, latter returns solo for the label's latest release, 'Rites EP', a three tracker consisting of two original cuts and a remix. In traditional Kalyma manner and part of his trademark sound the Berlin based producer delivers an excessive drum-influenced EP opener, 'Rites', that signifies its dance floor potential within the first minute and teases with an incisive chord which marks the introduction of the track's coming in subtle key-melody. As the track continues Kalyma sprinkles with accentuated synth-chords that adapt to the overall harmonies and set new auditory stimuli before the track enfolds its full peak-time potential. Kalyma's second cut, 'Red Man Calypso', comes in an original version and a Whitesquare remix. As the original highlights whizzling and sizzling synth pads that create late summer esthetics over a proper house bassline, Whitesquare's remix approach concentrates on the low frequencies a

At a time when progressive music continues to flourish so too does Dmitry Molosh. As one of the movements brightest stars, the Belarus based artist has continued to dominate the scenes landscape. A string of Beatport chart hits along with live play from Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Guy J and Replug’s own Cid Inc., have made him one of the genre’s trendiest artists. In addition to forging strong ties with Sudbeat Music and Guy Mantzur’s Plattenbank Records, Dmitry has grown into one of Replug’s primary artists, most recently remixing Navar’s ‘You Find’ in spectacular fashion. Now returning to the label amidst much anticipation, Dmitry presents his latest artist showcase entitled ‘Detektor’, alongside a remix from Orsen. Comprised of three tracks it’s the peak time sensibility of the title cut which gets the EP underway. Rhythmically charged, it’s chunky low end and percussive cadence unite for a gargantuan swing heavy framework. A storyboard of squelchy synths

Morttagua joins forces with the experienced American lead vocalist Chris Severe AKA Ghost WARS to bring us the progressive anthem "Hourglass" . 'Hourglass' has been a stable in Morttagua live sets for about one year already, being one of his most requested unreleased secret weapons. Now it finally finds its official release with heavyweight remixes from the likes of Khainz, Stas Drive and Supacooks. Morttagua fuses serious underground progressive beats to perfection in what most would call a commercial top line vocal from Ghost WARS. The combination between Morttaguas introspective harmonies, hypnotic arpeggios and detailed special effects with Ghost WARS melancholic vocals end up working so harmonically well, that though a paradox, Hourglass will find the hearts of both the underground and the more fine-tuned commercial crowds, with a serious potential of becoming a timeless anthem. On the Remix duties, Swiss heavyweight Khainz gives deep and emotional melodic atmosphere

Creative powerhouse Gabe returns to Sprout with relative newcomer, Rikfell with the new single, ‘Waterfall’ featuring a huge Doctor Dru remix. Gabe needs little introduction. Signed to a bewildering number of labels including Bonzai, Renaissance, Suara, Tronic and Get Physical, in recent times Gabe’s focus has been on developing a live show marrying his love of the studio with the thrill of playing to his adoring fans. Brazilian sensation Rikfell is still making his mark, but with the likes of Gabe, Solomun and Maceo Plex among his growing legion of fans, it won’t be long before he’s a household name too. Starting innocently enough, ‘Waterfall’ is a delicate, considered slice of contemporary progressive house with a gutsy low end that never fails to get the party moving. Bursting with sass and sparkle, it sashays along with gay abandon and a cheeky smile, Elegantly the synths weave in and out while the steadfast bass growls from the sidelines. Powerful and understa
