Madloch's Sound Avenue opens the new year by showcasing new interpretations of Eric Lune's ‘Dreaming Home'. Originally released in May of 2021 as part of the Aussie artist's ‘Dreaming Home' two-track showcase, its tastefully melodic disposition proved to be a worthy follow-up to 2019's progressive anthem ‘Embers'. Now as 2022 gets underway, Sound Avenue invites Sebastian Sellares, Forty Cats and Harmonious to re-imagine ‘Dreaming Home' for the winter season.
Returning to the label and providing the first interpretation of ‘Dreaming Home' is Sebastian Sellares. Also known under his previous moniker Monje, Sebastian hails from one of Argentina's most talent-rich regions in Cordoba. Since adopting his given name for his musical endeavors in 2018, Sebastian has gone on to showcase his music via UK behemoth Anjunadeep, Antrim's Or Two Strangers, GMJ and Matter's meanwhile and long-standing US imprint Proton Music. Having made his Sound Avenue debut in 2020 with a well-received rendition of ‘Union Eterna' by Matias Vilas, Sebastian now makes a welcome return to the label with a stunning take on ‘Dreaming Home'. Fluid and groovy in equal measure, it's a mix that carries the spirit of the original, while adding a peak time sensibility through driving grooves and otherworldly effects. Building beautifully across the first movement, Sebastian fragments the lead theme and reprocesses the vocal into a colourful canopy which blankets a trance inducing groove. Emotive chord changes carry a strong character into the break, perfectly setting the stage for the lead theme to work its magic. Its nostalgic musicality resonates against a backdrop of shapeshifting vocals and cosmic effects, tastefully building tension towards a classy crescendo and heartfelt finale.
Making her label debut and providing the second interpretation of ‘Dreaming Home' is Forty Cats. With well over a decade's worth of DJ experience, Russian artist Christina Gavrilova aka Forty Cats has been a fixture of her country's nightlife, sharing the stage with Jody Wisternoff, Nick Warren, Yotto, Dave Seaman and more. Christina's production debut landed three years ago via 8bit Music, and in relatively short order the Russian artist has gone on to release projects via Lane 8's This Never Happened, Hernan Cattaneo's Sudbeat Music, Juicebox Music and Mango Alley. Now adding Sound Avenue to her resume, Forty Cats debuts on the label with a heady rendition of ‘Dreaming Home'. Opting for a distinctly modern approach, the Russian artist reshapes the track into a collage of groove-centric, tripped-out audio. A bulbous rhythmic core coupled with timely percussive flurries and mind-bending effects set the stage for a series of dynamic transitions and unpredictable shifts. Otherworldly in feel, it transfers energy into a centrepiece of psychedelic design and dubbed out melodies, before a third act of surreal cosmic concepts seal its brilliance.
The release concludes with Harmonious making his label debut with the third and final interpretation of ‘Dreaming Home'. Based in Hasselt, the Belgian artist first emerged in 2017 with a release via Nie Wieder Schlafen, before going on to find a more permanent home on Jelly For The Babies' RYNTH and The Purr, where he has recorded two originals and three remixes since 2020. Although relatively early into his journey as a producer, Harmonious has already been highly regarded for his ability to blur genres and create emotional storyboards that not only work well on a dance floor but touch the heart and mind on a deeper level. Now bringing this uncanny ability to Sound Avenue, Harmonious makes his label debut with a gorgeous take on ‘Dreaming Home'. From a deeper vision, the Belgian artist draws on the sensibilities of the original, working fragmented melodies over a bed of organic beats, exotic percussion and hazy harmonics. Placid pads and whimsical plucks emerge across the first movement, perfectly setting the stage for a heartfelt break. Transcendent and glowing in equal measure, it's warm swells, soulful guitars and unpredictability showcases an artist operating at his creative peak, putting a resounding cap on a well-rounded remix edition for Eric Lune's ‘Dreaming Home'.
