#68 Feat. Banner in Progressive House

Bio: GMJ & Matter need little introduction to the underground dance cognoscenti. In demand producers and DJs with a beguiling sound that defines modern progressive house, the Australian duo return to Balance Music with their 'Helioflow' EP. Both prodigious artists in their own rights with a slew of high profile releases to their name, the Australian duo first came to prominence as a collaborative force with their May 2016 'Superposition' EP on Proton Music. Since then, GMJ & Matter have continued to see their careers hit stratospheric heights as international DJs, producers and label owners. Now returning to Balance Music for the first time since 2019's 'Emerge' EP, alongside fellow countryman, FunkForm, the 'Helioflow' title track is a glorious modern progressive house gem. Full of trademark production characteristics, a heavy kick and hypnotic percussive groove lays the foundation for swirling white noise fuelled pads to rise and fall gently. Before long, a filtered synth line enters the fray liberally coated in sweeping delays and cavernous reverb. Evolving easily to the mid point, textured elements and motifs combine in a haunting breakdown before the powerful rhythmic foundation drops back in to create a pulsating closing movement. Imagine sitting on a high rise building with your legs dangling from the edge—that's the adventure on offer in 'Skyline Depth. ' The drum section takes you on an enveloping ride through shuffling hats and tightly bound percussion, all accentuated by dream like synths and samples awash in the most glorious reverb. The journey culminates in a sensational breakdown, where balmy, mirage haze melodies rise in the distance. This is a track to share with friends on early morning dancefloors as the sun rises.

GMJ, Matter
