Heavy on melodies - this track has strong drive accentuated by deep percussion and low synths - merging to form complex rhythmic patterns full of movement.
It become a sonic adventure to an unknown world inside me that I never knew existed. I created this record while going through strong shifts in life and new adaptations. From delicate and beautiful to dramatic and paranoid the evolving storyboard is already a favourite of Crosstown Rebels boss Damian Lazarus it's also a piece which Brian holds close to his heart, as he explains "Dimensions tells the story of self exploration, challenges and a new found peace within myself. The release concludes with 'Dimensions' which goes deeper with rolling grooves, acidic rhythms and spaced out pads. This record is a symbol of freedom & strength, which is a good reflection of where I am physically and mentally today." Big synths and bassline on a rhythmic pattern, accompanied by smooth chords that add tension and emotion to the journey. Ones that can express a lot by saying very little. Undeniable rhythms that gain everyone's undivided attention. One of Brian's most recent creations and one with a larger scope in mind, as he describes "Lately I've been in the mood of creating grooves designed for bigger spaces and monumental moments. Tough beats, crisp design and a rugged, triplet-style groove get wrapped up in radiant chords and emotive pads for an intense eight minute journey. The EP's second selection 'Mancha' showcases a more techno inspired side of Brian's studio repertoire. Another stand out piece in Marvin & Guy's discography and also one of their most sought after productions this year. Aptly titled 'Hypnodance', it's a journey played out over twelve magical minutes, as the duo work mesmerizing lines, intriguing vocal samples and deep chugging grooves, resulting in a sure-fire dance floor bomb. Now making their much anticipated microcastle debut Marvin & Guy take 'Pluto' into groovy, tripped out territory with great results. 2017 began with a four track EP courtesy of Permanent Vacation and a bevy of new material is set to follow later this year. Formed in 2011 as a DJ and production duo, Italians Alessandro Parlatore and Marcello Giordani aka Marvin & Guy have been releasing their unique take on house music through a variety of international labels, most notably on Aeon, Correspondant and Hivern Discs. The lone interpretation of 'Pluto' is provided by Marvin & Guy who are making their first appearance on the label. That's why for the longest time this record has been one of my most precious creations, reserved for only very unique moments." This track navigates through a hidden pain within me, one where I'm getting to know myself. Memorable sounds that set strong, mysterious vibes and driving energy. Me accessing a new unexplored sonic world. Spacey tones that grow in layers, leading to a percussive explosion - landing on a groove without warning. I wanted the melodies to make a strong statement. It's this state of mind where the name ultimately originates from - the furthest and coldest planet of our solar system. A deep, emotional piece that brings up my darkest yet most sensitive memories. For Brian it was unique production, as he describes "Pluto explores a side of me that doesn't come out very often. A cosmic piece and one which Thugfucker has been showcasing in their sets for many months. Organic percussion and meditative rhythms resonate at the core while one of Brian's most extraordinary grooves anchors the foundation. Beginning with a deep, astral intro the piece flows through a myriad of esoteric designs and luminous textures. The release begins with its title and showcase piece 'Pluto' which finds Brian crafting one of his most distinctive creations to date. Now making his much anticipated return to microcastle Brian presents his three track artist showcase 'Pluto', alongside a remix from Marvin & Guy. His Theory Of Light project with Holmar Filipsson from Thugfucker debuted with two remixes for Cityfox while a solo EP is due on the label later this year. A subsequent release on Manjumasi, along with a stunning six track EP on his own Extinct Records imprint saw Brian's music played and supported by Adriatique, Lee Burridge, John Digweed, Henry Saiz, Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo and Joris Voorn. Three diverse and uniquely organic productions along with a remix from Eagles & Butterflies saw the release reach #1 in Beatport's Electronica and Progressive House charts, while placing #4 in their overall Top 100. The US artist last appeared on the Canadian imprint a year ago with his well received 'Belles Du Shaman' EP. The 51st release on microcastle welcomes Brian Cid back to the label for a brand new EP.
