From Brest in the southwest near the Polish border, Dmitry Molosh's sphere of influence reigns far beyond his homeland's borders alongside the likes of Michael A. At the cutting edge of underground dance music, the Belarusian has seen his music signed to a galaxy of high-profile imprints that include Cid Inc.'s Replug, DJ Zombi's Beat Boutique and Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music. Supported by leading lights that include Guy J, Nick Warren and Max Graham, Molosh's powerful, melodic sound has seen a quartet of remixes for Proton Music now complemented by a debut original track. "Little Friends" is thus a dynamically percussive affair that glistens with glorious melodic layers that ripple in and out of proceedings in smoothly filtered fashion. Elegant string passages lilt delicately over a heavyweight bassline as they evolve gently, coming to a subtle denouement at the breakdown alongside wonderful ambient effects and emotive piano layer. Rhythm and melody combine once in the second half to impressive effect in a classy track of maturity and skill.
Making their collaborative debut via "Avem" on June 2020's "Stoyote" EP. LADS and Traumhouse can both boast extensive production catalogues for a wealth of influential imprints. The German / South African partnership of LADS has seen the duo release a stunning array of material on the likes of Nie Wieder Schlafen, Rebellion der Traumer and Guy J's Lost and Found with a clutch of original EPs for Proton Music that include 2017's "Miss Jean", 2018's "Hagel" and 2020's aforementioned "Stoyote". From a 2016 debut for Cirque Du Son, Traumhouse has been a regular on the iconic A Must Have with a clutch of other releases on Magician on Duty, Sag and Tre and Paul Hazendonk's Manual Music. Joining forces for a second time on Proton, the LADS and Traumhouse remix revels in smooth melodic interplay that captures the essence of Molosh's original while transforming it through trademark innovative use of original components. "Little Friend" thus becomes a glorious free-flowing piece, enhanced by cavernous rolling rhythm and fizzing off-beat hats. Contemplative and delicately constructed, the trio's remix glistens from start to finish with a stunning and masterful level of production.
Imran Khan continues to develop support from fans and peers alike with each successive release. A growing force in the underground dance arena, the UK artist has continued to see his music signed to an ever-growing list of highly-regarded imprints that began with early work for Clinique Recordings in 2016. Since then, Stellar Fountain, Balkan Connection and GMJ and Matter's new Meanwhile imprint have continued to play host to Khan's music. Moreover, Particles and Proton Music have featured heavily in his portfolio with 2019's "Organik" and "Sunsweat" EPs representing the latter with typical grace and aplomb. Redolent in his trademark deep and atmospheric sound palette, the Imran Khan remix is the perfect advert for modern progressive house. A dynamic groove and thumping beat carry the track forward as floating melodic lines with their heart in Molosh's original appear over a hypnotic arpeggio. Reversed strings add another layer of intrigue while a deliciously evocative piano phrase extends "Little Friends" in a magnificent new direction.
