Clubsonica Records opens the spring season with a collaborative single from Golan Zocher and Juan Pablo Torrez. Born in Colombia but now calling Israel home, Golan Zocher has firmly etched his place in progressive house lore. Following a 2016 debut, the Tel Aviv resident quickly found his place amongst the genre's elite, earning play and support from Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Guy J and Guy Mantzur. Releases via Mango Alley, Or Two Strangers, Plattenbank and Proton highlight what has been an eight-year creative swell for this elusive talent. Clubsonica has also been a regular landing spot for Golan, with four originals and two remixes recorded since making his label debut in 2017. Meanwhile, Colombian artist and Clubsonica label boss Juan Pablo Torrez has also compiled an impressive resume since first emerging in 2007. Mango Alley, Plattenbank, The Soundgarden, UV and more have served as landing spots for his progressive creations, while world class DJs Hernan Cattaneo and Nick Warren have been steadfast supporters along the way. Also highly regarded as a DJ, Juan remains one of Colombia's premiere talents, sharing the stage with Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Sasha, Matador, and more. Although both Golan and Juan have built a good portion of their discographies on successful collaborations, the duo have yet to work together. It seems only appropriate that Clubsonica be the home for the duo's first ever joint production entitled 'Cosmic Resonance', alongside a remix from Mike Griego. Golan and Juan explore emotive progressive house sensibilities on their first joint production 'Cosmic Resonance'. Sleek and energetic throughout, it's a framework of punchy kick drums and undulating basslines which lay the foundation for rolling percussion and emerging atmospheres to unite, in turn creating a strong sense of flow. Hypnotizing arps and tension-inducing overlays take centrestage across the first act, with haunting atmospheres fully initializing the main break. Cosmic and emotive in equal measure, the interlude further solidifies the duo's dancefloor vision, melting down to a quiet calm where ghostly vocals and cinematic swells cleverly-coax, before the groove re-engages for a poignant finale of heartfelt chord changes and a haze of processed vocals. The release concludes with Mike Griego making his label debut with the lone interpretation of 'Cosmic Resonance'. Based in Buenos Aires, the Argentinean DJ and producer has carved out a unique place in the electronic underground. His exacting design, addictive grooves and avant-garde melodies have made for a transcendent sound that continues to unify dancefloors around the world. With a career that now approaches fifteen years and one hundred discography credits, Mike would have to be considered one of progressive music's elite artists, earning the praise of genre trendsetters Hernan Cattaneo, Lee Burridge and Nick Warren, among others. A meticulous discography reflects his choosy nature; with Replug, Sudbeat and Tale & Tone serving as the primary landing spots for his musical output. 2023 proved to be an impactful year for Mike, furthering his successes with the launch of his 'A Line In The Sand' imprint, a label which now not only serves as his primary home, but also offered up two of progressive music's most memorable releases of the year in 'Antidote' and 'Perfume'. Now following a single for Afterglow to begin the year, Mike makes an impressive debut on Clubsonica with a stellar rendition of 'Cosmic Resonance'. Opting for a dubbier, more groove-centric approach, Mike aims squarely at a deeper dancefloor, taking the track into cruising territory. Complete with tight kick drums and chunky basslines, it's a storyboard of intricate percussive layers, orbiting effects and gentle atmospheric progressions which make for an alluring hypnotism leading into the break. Here, Mike leans towards the emotional sensibility of the original, reworking the primary theme in elusive fashion, in turn creating an air of anticipation, before carefully building tension towards a finale that is equal parts emotive, mature and club-effective.

Clubsonica continues a strong start to the year by welcoming Dabeat back to the label for a new EP. Sitting as one of Colombia's premiere progressive house talents, David Barragan aka Dabeat has enjoyed a steady rise since first emerging in 2008 with a release courtesy of Beatfreak Recordings. The next decade saw David perfect his craft with a sound that many describe as groovy, dynamic and emotional. Now laying claim to an impressive discography, the Santiago de Cali resident has showcased his music via Anjunadeep, Mango Alley, Plattenbank, Proton, Replug and Sudbeat, while continuing to receive play and support from the genre's premiere tastemakers. Also a primary contributor to Clubsonica, Dabeat has recorded six remixes for the Colombian imprint across a five-year stretch, beginning with his label debut in 2018. Now, following a well-received debut for Global Underground to begin the year, Dabeat returns to Clubsonica for his first artist EP entitled 'Vesta | Evolving', alongside remixes from Rauschhaus and Sean & Dee. Selection one finds Dabeat paired with occasional studio partner, fellow countryman and progressive house star Kamilo Sanclemente. Together the duo have been responsible for some of the genre's most memorable tracks, most recently delivering their 'Floating' collaboration for Global Underground to begin 2024. Also paired previously for Clubsonica, the duo continue their creative partnership for the label in fine fashion with 'Vesta'. Here, Dabeat and Kamilo masterfully synthesize their talents while breaking down boundaries to serve up a melting pot of inspired progressive house. Its pneumatic energy turns over quickly, flowing through a maze of mutated electronics and fiery rhythmic fractures, before reaching a hyperspeed collision of sonics for the ultimate high-octane drop and grooved out finale. Also paired previously on multiple occasions to great effect are Dabeat and Juan Pablo Torrez. Together the Colombian duo have amalgamated their talents for remixes via Clubsonica and Mango Alley, none more impactful than their Hernan Cattaneo supported remix of Antrim's 'La Fin Du Monde' to begin 2024. Now paired once again for Juan's burgeoning Clubsonica imprint, the duo deliver their first and much anticipated Original production entitled 'Evolving'. The fellow countrymen drive each other forward, beyond their individual comfort zones for a mature club-effective record; one where thunderous beats, flowing rhythms and quirky melodies prelude a rousing finale. The lone interpretation of 'Vesta' is provided by Rauschhaus who returns to the label for his second appearance. The German producer has been a highly regarded figure of the melodic house underground since first emerging in 2017 with a contribution to Steyoyoke's 'Ethereal Techno' series. The next half decade saw Rauschhaus craft a consistent stream of superlative releases via Beatfreak, Eleatics, Einmusika and Stil Vor Talent. Clubsonica has also been a landing spot for the German's elusive sound, having made his label debut in 2022 with a powerful remix of Antrim's 'Hoffnung', Now, following a single for his Forevermore imprint to begin the year, Rauschhaus makes a welcome return to Clubsonica with a poignant rendition of 'Vesta'. With a light and airy approach, Rauschhaus remodels the track into a smooth uplifting slice of melodic house. Bound by a first act of key changing basslines, hypnotic rhythms and finely manicured percussion, its soaring melodies marry beautifully across an emotive break - one where the German artist engineers a glowing crescendo for all those morning dancefloors out there. The release concludes with Sean & Dee returning to the label with the lone interpretation of 'Evolving'. As production partners for the better part of a decade, Italian duo Sean & Dee firmly established themselves with a high-energy club-effective brand of melodic house and techno. Steadfast in their approach moving forward, the duo would build an impressive resume highlighted by releases via Beatfreak, FSOE, Siona, UV and Vandit Alternative, the latter of which would see them collaborate with Trance icon Paul Van Dyk. Also finding a home on Clubsonica, the duo would bring their elusive production touch across remixes for Juan Sapia & Hasith and Analog Jungs, released in 2021 and 2022 respectively. Now, following their latest vehicle for Vandit Alternative to end the year, Sean & Dee return to Clubsonica with a cosmic take on 'Evolving'. Built around a deep thumping framework, the Italian duo focuses on rhythm and groove across the first act, nicely balanced with a healthy dose of tranquil arps, striking stabs and cutting edge effects. Carrying a swaying cadence into the main break, the duo build emotion as anthemic melodies percolate against a backdrop of fuzzy arps, eventually giving way to a flurry of claps for an exhilarating finale to round out the release perfectly.
