We welcome gifted Serbian artist Ivan Pogrebniak back to the label with the superb ‘Moon Magic’ which follows his recent debut here with ‘Ultraviolet’. Although a relative newcomer to the electronic music scene, Ivan has rapidly gained recognition from respected labels such as OLD SQL Recordings, Hungry Koala Records, and Future Avenue, among others. His signature style, a fusion of warm, immersive soundscapes and cosmic, hypnotic grooves, showcases his innate talent and creative depth. As a rising star with a unique musical vision, he is steadily carving out his place in the industry, and we are excited to support him on this journey.

‘Moon Magic’ opens the release with a strong and energetic foundation, driven by punchy kicks, slicing hi-hats and rhythmic percussions. As the momentum builds, a deep rolling bassline emerges, giving the track a rich and grounded feel. Dreamy atmospherics begin to swirl in the background, adding layers of depth and space. Delicate plucked melodies float over the bassline, creating an entrancing contrast between the weighty low-end and the ethereal high-end elements. A wistful synth hook takes centre stage, soaring above the mix with a poignant and emotional resonance, making this a definite must have. ‘Ticket To The Moon’ rounds out the release, introing with impactful kicks and shuffling hi-hats alongside dynamic percussion elements that deliver a smooth, swinging groove. A thick, plucky bassline enters, carrying a rich and textured presence that adds warmth and depth as its steady, low-end pulse gives the track a solid backbone. Modulated synth melodies come into play, evolving and shifting with intricate note changes that evoke emotion and atmosphere. A distinctive techy vibe dominates the final act as strong filter sweeps manipulate the synths. Top-notch stuff, not to be missed.
