Originally part of October 2014's "Till It Begins" EP, Subconscious Tales lit up autumn gloom with a quartet of original tracks including the driving and shimmering melodic gem, "Become Aware". As Suffused Music now returns to the best-selling track, remixes from Malta and Russia are now packaged with the original in a new four-track offering that celebrates Ivars Tiliks outstanding work.

An artist with a rich musical heritage, Malta based, Paul Hamilton, has enraptured club audiences with his carefully constructed and supremely crafted DJ sets that have seen him perform in Dubai, Malta and the UK. Furthermore, with over 250 production credits to his name, Hamilton continues to find his name allied to some of the finest underground dance imprints. Thus, Baroque, Balkan Connection and Hush Recordz, play host to the Paul Hamilton name with further remixes for mainstream labels including Armin Van Buuren's ARVA. Creating a laid-back bass groove that forms a rich foundation for his remix, a strong percussive cadence adds dance-floor depth before Subconscious Tales' melodic elements are gradually introduced through filtered pads. A stripped back breakdown sees "Become Aware" motifs fully emerge in sumptuous glory before bass and rhythm once again take hold.

From the beautiful and historic city of St. Petersburg on the coast of the Baltic sea, Jiminy Hop is a relative newcomer to the underground dance scene. Making his debut in late 2015, the "Let Me Be Inspired" EP for Smart Phenomena, began a production path that has since seen a century of production credits grace such noteworthy labels as Electronic Tree, Clinique and BC2. Furthermore, a new deep house sound has found its way onto The Purr in August 2017 with "Another Moment". February 2017's "Le Mans" EP showcased a trio of original tracks for Suffused Music, as a remix of Ewan Rill in January, is now followed by a second in the shape of a driving, chunky groove that is redolent in bouncing bass line and strong beat. Making full use of the melodic components found within "Become Aware", the Jiminy Hop rework revels in additional production material, not least in a distorted analogue bass line that makes its filtered presence felt throughout.

Ewan Rill is an artist that requires little introduction to the underground music cognoscenti. Another resident of the European influenced city of St. Petersburg, Rill, the former Siberian native, has been a mainstay of the progressive house scene since a 2011 debut for Balkan Connection and a subsequent surfeit of original production material. Some 1,250 production credits later and Ewan Rill is still very much at the top of his production game. Indeed, over two-hundred credits can be found against Balkan Connection labels as Spring Tube, Stellar Fountain and Clinique, have all played their part. A regular on Suffused Music since a 2013 remix of T-Dallas, a plentiful supply of remix and original production material can be found including an August 2017 remix of Cid Inc.'s "Obsidian". Applying his unique talents to Subconscious Tales, the Ewan Rill remix takes "Become Aware" on a trademark rhythmic journey that encompasses a typically intricate percussive groove, effects and rock solid bass line. Interpreting the melodic phrasing of the original in stylish and elegant fashion, an array of pads and shimmering stuttered motifs immediately provide reference to Subconscious Tales' track in a work of ingenuity and craft.

A trio of new remixes reprise Subconscious Tales work as Paul Hamilton, Jiminy Hop and Ewan Rill "Become Aware" of something very special.
