[ ::.. RELEASE NOTES ..:: ]
............................
Returning to Proton Music with a follow-up to his mid-2021 To
the Mood and Back and a remix of Dabeat in June this year,
Magitman once again illustrates why he's been such a storied
producer over a 15-year period on the label. With a swathe of
original and remix material, often with former production
partner Roman Brisker between 2008-2010, the Israeli star
delights once more with the sparkling twin-track Daybreak.
Showcasing a vibrant house-infused style, the title track flows
breezily across its 5-minute timeframe with head-shaking
percussive groove and blend of sunlit melodies. Revelling in a
call-and-response framework, the shimmering arpeggios sit
alongside powerful chords and a rousing bassline sequence. The
result is a stirring tour de force. Infusion continues the house
sound, quickly bringing a bouncing bass groove and immaculately
placed percussive components to the foreground. The resulting
rhythmic collage is heightened further by a squelching synth
motif that filters in dynamic fashion. Evolving easily through
an elegant sonic palette, the track picks up the pace with its
funky bass groove as all elements come together in a
silky-smooth 5-minute framework.
An artist who has hit the heights over a stellar career behind
the decks and in the studio, D-Nox has been at the heart of the
underground dance scene for over two decades. As part of the
D-Nox & Beckers outfit and also in solo guise, the German has
seen a plethora of music featured on the likes of Einmusika,
Suara and his own Sprout. A quartet of remixes for Proton Music
that began with a late 2005 debut and continued in 2019 after a
15-year hiatus, has seen D-Nox shine with reworkings of Juan
Deminicis, Anton MAKe and Cream. Now taking on Daybreak, the
D-Nox remix is a glorious combination of melodic tropes from the
original, housed within a strong dancefloor offering and smooth
4-to-the-floor rhythmic underpinning. The central motif from the
Magitman original also makes its presence felt, as does a
hypnotic bass pattern. A raft of new production material and
dynamic melodies add to the interpretation with a wash of pads
at the half-way point before taking off once more in the third
movement to powerful effect.
An artist most recognised with his work as part of Dance Spirit,
Christopher Mohn's solo career has kicked-off in hugely
impressive fashion. A veteran of some 250 production credits for
the likes of Superfreq, Kindisch and Bedrock Records,
Christopher's debut solo work has quickly racked up support from
the DJ glitterati with music on Wild Wolves On Acid and YOON
Records. Now debuting his production magic on Proton Music, the
Christopher Mohn remix is a seething Tech House infused Minimal
monster that intelligently uses the key components of Magitman's
original and blends them with a squelching bassline backdrop and
chest-thumping kick. Pitched down arps and creepy vocals cuts
are juxtaposed with lighter melodic components to create a
mesmerising offering that is sure to appeal to DJs and
club-goers alike in the hours before Daybreak.
A final mix sees a return of Roman Brisker. Long-term production
partner of Magitman, the pair have more than a half-century of
tracks featured on the likes of Tribal Vision Records,
Avangardia and Proton Music. Making a welcome return, the Roman
Brisker remix is a deep progressive gem that revels in bouncing
bass groove and light melodic juxtaposition. Intelligently using
elements of Magitman's original, new motifs are delicately
placed atop familiar patterns as Daybreak takes on a new and
vibrant direction. Embracing a fluid and hypnotic vibe, the
Roman Brisker remix is a superb and welcome addition to the EP.
