Robert R. Hardy – Gypsy Water [Balkan Connection South America]

The latest from Nicolas Van Orton’s Balkan Connection South America welcomes Robert R Hardy back to the label for a brand new EP. Robert’s versatility can’t be overstated. From a career which began with deeper more atmospheric productions the Hungarian artist has grown with more progressive minded pieces as well as late night dubby material. It’s a great repertoire to have and he mixes it up really well from project to project. On ‘Gypsy Water’ we get something quite deep with great musicality. The mallet style lead stands out with warm, vibrant qualities while a laid back yet bouncy groove brings a great dance floor sensibility. There’s a definite crossover happening with a lot of deeper house meshing quite well with progressive arrangements. This fits nicely into that box.

Monojoke – Paradisum (DJ Beat2 Remix) [Electronic Tree]

The latest release from Tuxedo’s Electronic Tree imprint welcomes Monojoke back to label for a brand new single.  It’s one of India’s fastest rising stars in DJ Beat2 who we want to highlight here. In addition to being one of his country’s most well known DJs Beat2 also has a short but impressive discography highlighted by releases on Hernan Cattaneo’s Sudbeat Music and Lonya’s Asymmetric Recordings. The future certainly looks bright and a strong interpretation of ‘Paradisum’ only re-enforces that. The first thing you notice is the production quality here, very open and spacious which allows all the great percussive elements to breath wonderfully. Beat2’s time behind the decks has served him well as the rhythmic core of the track has a strong dance floor sensibility, while the melodic elements do just enough to illicit great emotion without being overbearing. A classy remix from Beat2 who is definitely building a strong presence in the progressive house underground.

Perhaps one of Erdi’s most gorgeous remixes to date and no doubt his most sought after this year.
