D.J. MacIntyre's SLC-6 Music opens the fall season by presenting the twenty-second edition of their SIX: Stage-X compilation series. Established five years ago, the beloved various artists showcase continues to search the globe for the freshest new talent that the electronic underground has to offer, featuring a cohesive blend of progressive and melodic techno styles. SIX: Stage-22 continues that ethos and lands in impressive fashion with exclusive new music from: Rebus Project, Gowzer, Narik, DEGG (MT), Noise Generation, Headkube and Uberphat.

Making his label debut with selection one is Estonian artist Viktor Pekisev aka Rebus Project. ‘Mankind Continuum' sets the tone for the collection with its sweeping symphonics, icy pads and chugging progressive groove that's perfect for the dancefloor. Also making his label debut is Gowzer who provides selection two ‘The Future'. Known for his releases via Droid9, the Glasgow resident brings a nostalgic progressive house vibe that excels through its use of chugging basslines, percolating synths and strong rhythmic top lines to maximize its club-effective range. Returning to the label with selection three is Narik who made his SLC-6 debut earlier this year as part of the SIX-Stage-20 collection. ‘Echoes' is the French artist's contribution here and it finds a nice balance of progressive house and melodic techno throughout, highlighted by a distinctive vocal chant which makes for a transcendent experience.

The collection's halfway point finds DEGG and Noise Generation presenting their latest collaboration ‘Avrasya'. Hailing from Malta and Sri Lanka respectively, the duo combine their extensive forces for a peak hour cut highlighted by chugging progressive grooves, swing-heavy percussion, and a trippy amalgamation of haunting vocal pads and percolating textures. SLC-6 stalwart Headkube is up next with ‘The Steel Yard', a track which marks his twelfth appearance on the label. Pace and tempo rise here for a trance-inducing journey complete with euphoric melodies, emotive chord changes and an unrelenting pulse to take the energy of any set higher. The release concludes with Uberphat returning to the label for his second appearance following a contribution to the SIX: Stage-18 collection from 2023. ‘Doppler Flux' finds the American artist crafting a quirky cross-genre production that cleverly coaxes drum and bass inspired basslines, pixie-like melodies and a heartfelt break to unite your dancefloor.
