Matt FX, Melika – A Love Beginning
(Spotify)

“Happy and playful song ideal for the dark moments of loneliness we may experience. "Matt FX" uses his sound producing skills in the service of the Deep House scene, while "Melika" unfolds her singing artistry to complete this masterpiece. The result is only one clik away!”

“A Love Beginning” is a cool, crisp, neon single dripping in vibrant dynamics and lush additional instrumentation from saxophonist and producer Braxton Cook. It is about that special moment when you walk into a party and see someone that makes time stop-and what happens after that moment.

Reminiscent of Disclosure, Melika ’s sleek vocals glide over the beat to create an energetic pulse, accompanying the rise and fall of the track's melodies.

KLANGPLANET – Stardust

“"Stardust" is a track which can promise a trip to the stars. Happy Melodic Techno with variety of sound effects, popping kick and unpredictable progression. The solo artist has also given a retro character in his mix, which will obviously bring nostalgic memories.”

MAXI MERAKI – Way Too Long
(Spotify)

“"MAXI MERAKI" strikes with a dancing bomb. Are you into House? Be prepared to dive in a mix of wave vibrations, melodic atmosphere and strong emotions. The Belgian artist has given emphasis in his percussion patterns, edited vocals and sound effects, creating an addictive vibe.”

-Nagamag.com

Funky feels from Antwerp’s Maxi Meraki with his first release ‘Way Too Long’ on Dutch House label artwrk. Targeting the Balearic hot spots he’s become accustomed to with deep, focused house composing suave vocals and pianos striding about the place with a splash of salsa to them. While there’s plenty of groove as standard from the Roger Sanchez/Mark Knight-supported spinner - springy bass, a warm blast of synths on a breakdown of calming motivation - Meraki builds an aura and gives the track time and space to explore itself, as per the knowledge-of-self lyrics.

Antwerp resident Maxi Meraki grew up with music and started to play records at high end clubs in Belgium and Amsterdam. A first memorable highlight was noted during the summer of 2018 with a 4 hour set at the Pacha Destino in Ibiza.

Forward to the middle of 2019, the summer season residencies at the W hotel in Barcelona and Izakaya Ibiza set the tone for a bright summer. A sunny season filled with extra gigs: Soho House (Barcelona), Bagatelle (Ibiza), Plage Casanis (Marbella) and the absolute highlight playing on Ibiza’s most popular boat party “Pirata’s Ibiza”, warming up for Circoloco’s DC10 resident DJ Nathan Barato.

Sam Blacky – Paradise (Spotify)

Sam Blacky – Paradise
(Spotify)

“A taste of paradise can be found in this mind tripping creation from "Sam Blacky". Fascinating elusive singing guides us in a parallel spiritual world. Soft and strong, relaxing and energetic... surely something that worths listening.”

-Nagamag.com

Sam Blacky is back with her new single "Paradise," an appropriately titled house gem that evokes images of places like the sun-soaked Ibiza and Mykonos. The track features ethereal vocals by Florida-based singer/songwriter Madeline Austin; the two connected via social media and hit it off when Madeline sent demos for what is now "Paradise." Sam works in a deep, groovy bassline with gently undulating melodies, making for a sultry dancefloor track that will heat up the night wherever you may be. "Paradise" is the third single to come out on Blacky's own Stabby Records, which launched in February this year.

"'Paradise' is a more melodic track that I feel people can enjoy in different environments; listen to it while driving, use as a morning soundtrack after waking up, or dance to it in a club. I wanted to make it more universal than just a club banger. Once again, I pulled inspiration from all the beautiful places I have been to, and 'Paradise' feels like summer in Ibiza or Mykonos. It's the feeling of butterflies in your stomach, floating through the ocean with the wind on your face and a big carefree smile coming from within. Featured on 'Paradise' is singer/songwriter Madeline Austin. When I look for a female vocalist, I post on social media about it because I want to find someone fresh, new, unknown to give them a shot and keep the female movement going. Madi sent me a message and some demos, and the rest is history. She started as a fan, and I soon realized that she is a very talented singer and songwriter. Her vocals and lyrics about paradise, heaven, and a little flirty danger were just perfect for this release." - Sam Blacky

LYZZ – Jubilee
(Spotify)

“A bright star appears in the House/Techno music scene. "LYZZ" can easily attract our attention with this excellent production. We noticed a unique balance between powerful dancing electronic reefs and the artist's light singing voice. Great work and unforgetable experience.”

-Nagamag.com

Jubilee is a track that would be perfect at an open air outdoor festival at the beginning of the evening when the sun starts to go down. I think it brings people in a dreamy melancholic state due to the intense synths and dreamy vocals, this in combination with a pulsating deep 120 bpm groove and a soft poppy topline

Jickow – The Nemesis of Love
(Spotify)

“Cool like a breeze of fresh air "The Nemesis of Love" has just arrived in the House music scene. Get ready for an absolute sound experience that can promise the unexpected. Perfectly organized electronic elements presented with unique flow and gradual progression. Do you consider yourself a demanding listener? Then, this was made for you!”

-Nagamag.com

Jickow is back with a brand-new release on the DHB imprint, a consistent EP called ‘The Nemesis Of Love’ with featuring remixes from renowned producers like the German talent Mark De Pulse with over 400 releases spanning his career and Da Fresh hailing from France with accompanying iconic releases like ‘Goosebumps’ and ‘Aquila’. With an unstoppable work ethic backed by a string of impressive releases, Jickow is definitely cementing his place in the industry especially with this new release which would prove a shame to miss out on.

Jickow’s take on ‘The Nemesis Of Love kicks off with a clean, pulsing kick drum combined with sharp and punchy snares and hi hats that fill the upper end of the spectrum to establish that iconic groove. This is shorty followed by a series of dark and entrancing sound FX that wrap around from the edges of the speaker and engulfs the soundscape to give it an ominous and mysterious vibe we can all get behind. Between the excitement of the main body of the song, the implementation of the breakdowns switch up the atmosphere and the spine-tingling vocals commence, perfectly bringing every aspect of the song together. Da Fresh’s remix remains consistent with the original all while adding his unique flare to it by implementing off beat clicks combined with a lower cutting bassline to give it zestier feel, while Marc De Pulse offers a more electrifying and grounded vibe with melodies paying homage to that iconic ‘80s synth-wave era.

With a reputation proceeding him for the production of top-quality produced music, Jickow has really stepped up his game with this one. With plenty more exciting releases on the way, Jickow is rising as one of the most talented producers in the ever-growing pool of rising artists in the Dance music industry and is definitely worth keeping an eye on.

‘The Nemesis Of Love’ is out now and available on all good streaming services and digital music stores.

KATORZI – Skidum (Spotify)

KATORZI – Skidum
(Spotify)

“"KATORZI" delivers a new hit for his audience and the Deep House scene. More than six enjoyable minutes are waiting for one click of the "play" button. Rich variety of sound samples, vocal effects and a prototypical blend of vintage elements with modern production. This is "Skidum"!”

-Nagamag.com

https://linktr.ee/PuzzleProjectsMusic

PuzzleProjectsMusic returns with another hot debut from its diverse roster of talent. Based in Bogota, Colombia via Brazil, where he was born and raised, Katorzi was originally a bass player in an indie band, over the years he has broadened his scope, moving to Bogota in 2018 where he began to make connections with the city’s Latin and electronic music scenes. A devout record collector, Katorzi’s heart beats to the rhythm of funk and he is constantly exploring different avenues with his music. On the Skidum EP, we get a taste of his love for Brazilian music, merging vintage flavours and Afro-Brazilian percussion with modern production techniques.

‘Skidum’ (PPM0028) splices South American vibes with nu-disco composition to produce an infectious dance floor bopper. The bassline is utterly irresistible, with an oh-so-familiar feeling permeating throughout and hints of the cuica drum adding local character. Not forgetting the vocal hook, which gives this track even more Latin appeal.

‘In This’ (PPM0029) keeps it sultry, grooving, and hot like a sweat-drenched Brazilian dance floor. You can almost feel the beads of sweat forming on your forehead. Traditional Brazilian percussion and strings push this cut forward as Katorzi cultivates a warm, inviting vibe. The mood is understated yet positive and invigorating.

If you liked that, then you’ll love the next PuzzleProjectsMusic release, which sees Ronald Christoph teaming up with Techno giant Steve Cole for a monster Dub Techno EP.
