A Particles debutant with his track "Forgive", Valer den Bit is the production alias of Russian producer, Valeriy Vorobey, a regular performer around his Chelyabisnsk hometown with numerous DJ appearances at the start of 2015. A production career that has seen him feature on such celebrated Proton roster labels as Incepto Music, Progressive House Worldwide and Nueva, Particles is delighted to announce Valer den Bit's first release on the label as the smooth melodic sequences and dark, languid bass groove of "Forgive" is partnered with three remixes from three neighbouring Eastern European countries.

A creative talent with academic qualifications in the realm of fine art, Guk Kirill, has found much success through his Following Light production moniker. Nascent experimentation in electronic music quickly bore fruit as the Ukrainian developed his "atmospheric progressive house" sound "with elements of melodic techno". With almost a half-century of production credits on his own Inmost Records imprint, further work has found its way to Balkan Connection and Stellar Fountain. A bountiful supply of production material found on Particles including a trio of innovative original EPs, the Following Light interpretation of "Forgive" provides a crunchy and distorted layer of grit to Valer den Bit's original as it follows the same melodic lines while simultaneously applying a smooth percussive flow to remember.

Involved in the underground music scene of his Belarusian hometown from an early age, Dmitry Molosh earned his reputation through a series of DJ performances at local clubs and parties. Moving onto production through "a deeper desire to play a more important role" in the underground music scene, Molosh's work has seen his music hit such imprints as Reelaux, Movement and Luke Porter's Temporum. Also head of AandR for Magic Room, the Dmitry Molosh remix of "Forgive" provides a deep and sensual rework that builds on the components of the original, adding creative flair through multi-layered percussion and 808 claps. Providing a different framework from which melodic interplay flourishes, the Dmitry Molosh remix is an in impressive work.

Ewan Rill needs little introduction to the underground dance faithful. A long-time advocate of the progressive house sound with DJ appearances across Siberia, Moscow and St. Petersburg alongside the likes of Matt Darey and Jerome Isma-Ae, Rill's work since 2011 has seen the Russian blossom with an embarrassment of production riches including a century of credits with Balkan Connection and impressive portfolios with Spring Tube and OLD SQL. A regular Beatport charter with his unique sound, the Ewan Rill remix of "Forgive" blends the Russian's trademark progressive sound with elements of deep house and techno. The result is a creation with a neck-snapping kick and musical flow that evolves delicately to a mid-point whereupon a new musical direction is formed based upon themes of the original, creating a work of skill and originality.

A trio of remixes from Eastern Europe has left Valer den Bit with nothing to "Forgive" and even less to forget.
