Welcoming new collaborative partnerships to the Particles roster is always an exciting opportunity and witnessing the combined talents of Chris Domingo and Eric Lune for their Particles debut is no exception, the duo revealing their "Sentimental Fool" EP.
Talented artists in their own rights, US star, Chris Domingo and Canadian talent, Eric Lune, have found their music allied to some of the finest underground imprints, counting Balkan Connection, Black Hole and Juicebox Music among them. Moreover, both have found homes on Belgian label, Sound Avenue with an impressive array of original and remix production material. Both have also found themselves hitting impressive heights on Proton Music, not least through Eric Lune's "Airbag" EP which saw a remix from Mariner + Domingo. Now joining forces on a debut original track, "Sentimental Fool" sees Domingo + and Eric Lune create a bright and evocative track that revels in shimmering arpeggios and acoustic field recordings that add a subtle vibrancy to proceedings. Anchored by heavy kick and offbeat percussive flair, interwoven melodies filter into sonic range as hypnotic arpeggiated sequences, breathy vocals and multi-layered pads, combine in counterpoint harmony to create a superb original work.
An iconic figure withing the underground dance industry, Pole Folder is a name synonymous with modern progressive house after making a name for himself debuting on John Digweed's Bedrock. A regular on Proton Music since 2006 and, more recently, with a trio of original EPs that include 2020's "Serengeti" and 2021's "Mara", Pole Folder now makes his fifth remix appearance on Particles with a typically impressive reworking. Redolent in additional production material that has become such a trademark feature of the Belgian's work, a new bassline based on the progression from Domingo and Lune's original, casts a magical spell over the 6-minute track as woven sonic textures cascade across each other, opening up post-breakdown underneath a heavy beat and 808 clap to create a remix worthy of the "Full Sentimental Mix" title.
Production moniker of Australian artist, Sam Liburn (aka Sammy Pstump), Slipp. has seen the Tasmanian producer create a distinctive ‘melodic, progressive and psychedelic dance music, inspired by the traditions of techno and house'. Digital Structures, Dreaming Awake and The Next Levelists have all played host to the Slipp. name as he now debuts on Particles with a coruscating and arpeggiated reworking that rises and falls in hypnotic fashion against a rhythmic anchor of deep kick and ticking hi-hat pattern. Echoing the themes resonant in the original to magical effect, new guitar passages and exquisitely syncopated chords pitch and fall in innovative new patterns to create a highly original remix that showcases Slipp.'s range of skill, craftsmanship and technique.
As Domingo + and Eric Lune develop a new relationship, remixes from Pole Folder and Slipp. help to showcase a "Sentimental Fool".
