Ziger returns to ICONYC with a brand-new single titled 'Bring Back the Rave'. The Greek producer continues to be one of the top tier progressive house artists with continued support from the who is who in the progressive underground, along with releases on Eleatics, Beatfreak, Sudbeat and his own Eat My Hat imprint. 'Bring Back the Rave' finds Ziger at his creative best with a driving, hypnotic production that's nicely dialed in or the dance floor. Punchy beats and a full, driving groove anchor the piece, as vibrant tones and spacey effects adorn the framework. The main break hits suddenly and its astral charm quickly saturates your pleasure centers, before melting down to a cavernous reservoir as the beats drop for a storming finale. The first remix of 'Bring Back the Rave' comes courtesy of German producer Oovation who marks his debut on the label in style, with a driving melodic infused remix here. Oovation who carved out a name for himself with high quality releases, reshapes the original elements into something more main room melodic sounding. The wonk factor on the low end is quite high and monumentally groovy as well, nicely playing off the rolling rhythmic qualities as dulcet hooks and gentle harmonics drift in and out of the framework. The main break shifts the narrative into more energetic territory but the dance floor sensibility remains, with muted beats and percussive clusters building towards a tasteful drop. Superb rework from Oovation. The third and final interpretation comes from label debutants Two Are. The Ukrainian duo follow excellent releases on Siona, Armada and Lost in You with a brilliant interpretation here. Powerful, compelling and acutely mysterious, it's driving melodic qualities and richly textured groove make for an intense first act. As atmospheres evolve, distinctive stabs and vocal edits steal the air, before a one-minute break takes you further into a haze of thumping audio, perfectly setting up a grand finale. A brilliant remix from Two Are that's likely destined for the sets of the big boy brigade. Highly recommended. With 'Bring Back the Rave' Ziger really shows that there're no boundaries, as this striking melodic gem guides you to a full-on club laden, melodic hug of a release that will cause many smiles induced moments and instantly lift your mood. 'Bring Back the Rave' sees a worldwide release on January 26th, 2024 via every well-known digital content provider. Not to be missed.
To close out another successful year, ICONYC bring us the 2nd remix reissue of 'London' from label boss John Johnson. The seminal track was released on the famed English Ministry of Sound imprint 'IDJ 'and gained huge popularity after receiving heavy play from both Sasha and John Digweed. It continued the wave of success for the New York based producer and remains a standout piece on his meticulous discography. Regarded as one of the defining tracks in the progressive house golden era it's irresistible hooks have stood the test of time remarkably well. For the second remix edition and to celebrate nearly 25 years since its original release, ICONYC have called upon James Harcourt, Torsten Fassbender & Darbinyan to update the track. The first interpretation of 'London' is provided by James Harcourt who returns to ICONYC in style. The English born producer really does not need any introduction. James who has been the benchmark and stand out reference for with meticulous productions for many a year. Mr. Harcourt delivers a compelling interpretation of 'London'. Low slung bass stabs, vibrant percussion and spacey electronics, all wrapped together with the distinctive rhythms from the original make for a deep and engaging first act. Suave synths and distinct drum fills further the tracks sonic scope before it begins to strip down into the main break. The suspense filled interlude is fueled with those unmistakable rhythms before a series of beats lets the synth loose once more for the ultimate finale. Another classy interpretation from James Harcourt. The second interpretation of 'London' is provided by Torsten Fassbender. The Berlin based producer has achieved an amazing level of critical and commercial success in recent times. As one of his country's most talented music producers he has proven his skill in professional sound design and contemporary electronic music. His unique fusion of techno beats and progressive minded sensibilities continues to be one of the underground's freshest sounds. Beginning with a fluid yet bouncy revamp of the groove, the German producers' distinctive sonic hallmarks begin to work their way into the mix. Momentous rhythms along with complementary tones lift the vibe higher as the track reaches the main break. The interlude showcases a storyboard of rising modulation and atmospheric pressures which build to a tasteful apex before the unmistakable groove returns for a great moment. A sensational remix from Torsten Fassbender which will stand the test of time. Armenia sensation Darbinyan closes out the release in style with two outstanding renditions of 'London'. In recent years Darbinyan has been famed for his revisions and he's worked that magic once again for two compelling interpretations of 'London'. On a foundation of freeform bass swells comes arpeggiated clusters and processed string assembles. Warm and rushy at points yet delicate and impassioned at others, the first act proves to be the prefect prelude to a dramatic break before concluding with a strong finale. The second version is a sensational laidback edit, that factors in the low end, as well as the monumental groove. The remix is playing nicely off the chilled rhythmic qualities and dulcet hooks which drift in and out of the framework. The smooth beats and the laidback tonal theme rise, while peaking with a wave of calmness of beats and the deep bass. Two striking creations from Darbinyan, who delivers cutting-edge interpretations to round out part 2 of the London remixes on a strong note. Don't miss them!
