Spanish musical genius Henry Saiz provided one of Balance’s most memorable efforts on the 19th volume, utilising vinyl, cassette, reel-to-reel tapes and over 100 field recordings to create an incredible patchwork of sounds that came together as a beautiful whole. Ever keen to provide something unique, he returns to the series for Balance presents Natura Sonoris: an expansive mix comprised completely of exclusives from his award-winning label. https://soundcloud.com/progressiveastronaut/friend-of-marcus-she-who-annihilates-henry-saiz “I wanted to do something special for the 10th anniversary of Natura Sonoris” he explains, “and also it´s been six years since my last CD mix—also for Balance—so we thought it was the perfect timing to do a new collaboration.” As such, he has used only exclusive and unreleased tracks from his label family, many specially commissioned for this continuous 140-minute long mix. Upcoming releases get a debut airing; firm favourites from pre

Hi Robert, nice to catch you, i know you are very busy, so thanks for taking few minutes to answer some of our questions! We have a pleasure to do a premiere for your upcoming release on Bedrock, can you tell us something about that? Thank you very much for your support, this track is like a mixture of Acid and Grace Jones having a glass of sparkling wine. Curious what are you doing at the moment? Spending time in studio, doing tutorials or perhaps touring, or all of the above? Just woke up in Bali/Indonesia. Had a wonderful tour in Australia, Kuala Lumpur/Malaysia, and now Bali. Sharing the Babiczstyle sounds :) I saw you constantly making new music (from your SoundCloud snippets and ideas) - any info on your upcoming stuff and what the feedback is from other DJs/artists on your music? Ohh there is a lot to come, did a full new ambient album for TRAUM, and also new tunes for my own label. Also will start to work on my next album for Systematic. From your Instagra

As a new label bursts onto the current dance music scene, Dreamcatcher is a bright light in the ever-expanding musical firmament. With a debut release that captures the essence of the underground progressive sound, Tinexis illuminates "The Dark Side of the Moon". A major force in his home country's music scene, Tinexis is a mysterious artist in a world of social media noise. Pushing against the idea that high visibility is the key to success, the Swiss artist finds an 'appeal in anonymity'. Whether performing live, through his "Other Sides" podcast, or brand new monthly "Depth Immersion" show on Proton Radio, Tinexis continues to mesmerise and hypnotise through a unique blend of music that captivates fans and listeners alike. His debut release thus continues to build on a reputation that is set to grow. "Dark Side of the Moon" is a brooding dance floor gem that evolves with consummate ease via a backdrop of pounding beat, driving percussion and melodic mastery. Shimmering arpegg

Cologne-based David Hasert teams up once again with his partner in crime Francesco 'Frankie' Mami from London. Reaping the benefits on a crunchy and highly levelled EP called 'Kuloe', these three tracks plus one remix will bring definitely more heat to the floors of this summer. Expect a pack full of positive vibes! Carried on intermeshing percussions, the title track rambles ahead with a warm flow through the flourishing garden. Stopping by at the burst of buds, a sweet melody will underscore the mood of this tune. 'Excuse Me' says Berlin-based singer Mz Sunday Luv and comes along in collaboration at the so-called track. On a fluffy beat and a portion of weirdness, she sings with her smoky and seductive voice into a sexy dirtyness. The original of 'Clap' reaches the level of exitement which is necessary for blazing the dancing shoes - at the latest when the bass drops! Beatamines takes the helm for remixing this one and injects some tension for keepin' it heavily suspensful on a subt

Marc Depulse teams up with Several Definitions to deliver the latest Definition:Music release, a 3-track EP titled "Black Spider" including a stunning Lee Van Dowski remix. The boys first show us how to groove with "Amphibia", a deep and gritty track that drives hard and fast through the dark night. Lee van Dowski then gives the track a harder edge and drowns it in deep techno. His no nonsense remix steams forward with full force as you begin to lose control. This is late night entertainment at its finest. Hot on the tails is the title track, Black Spider, which again, drives deep and hard as the electricity in the air thickens and the track opens the roof and sets the stars on fire. They say save the best for last, well this is it. ► YouTube: bit.ly/ProgressiveAstronautSubscribe ► Soundcloud: bit.ly/ProgressiveAstronautSC ► Website: bit.ly/ProgressiveAstronautWEB ► Facebook: bit.ly/ProgressiveAstronautFB ► Twitter: bit.ly/ProgressiveAstronautTW ► Instagram:

The first original titled “Bahai” comes with clattering percussion and plucked synth stabs. Thrilling bass swells and an intricate melody with emotional energy add finishing touches to this shimmering masterpiece that unfolds into a crescendo of dancefloor bliss. Second is “Skylon” and UNER’s second original track, slow building with a stripped back groove that leaves space for the poignant pads leading the track. Progressive, its structure introduces a variety of melodies that each change the mood of this epic journey. Fans of UNER will be familiar with his style of melodic mastery will not be disappointed to hear his breathtaking trademark sound! Track three is the Monkey Safari remix of “Skylon” that from the offset has a toughened sound with thudding bass stabs and rigid percussion. Growling low end pads create dark atmosphere, and the originals pads are used as sparse textures rather than lead sounds. Ferocious and menacing but still hypnotic, this alternative

LOK Recordings’ fifth release comes from the co-owner of the label NORR, who has produced three floor-referred tracks in cooperation with the Belgian singer, producer and songwriter Cook Strummer. Soul Distortion consists of three originals and two perfectly fitting remixes by Diynamic’s Magdalena and Aki Bergen & Richter. NORR and Cook Strummer’s originals absorb the listener with their leading vocals, driving drums and varying harmonic accents. The EP's brooding intensity evolves with haunting synths and subtle acid lines laced over Cook Strummer’s compelling vocals followed by dark, hypnotic layers. Magdalena’s remix is a clean production full of drum and hit variations, while perfectly timed saw waves bolster her version of the original track ‘Can’t Stand’. Her method of twisting vocals along with force and energy creates an alluring and unforgettable remix. The Aki Bergen & Richter remix of “Soul Distortion" bursts with power and demonstrates th
