The 164th release on Suffused Music finds the label revisiting One Million Toys' 'Syntax' EP for a new set of remixes. Originally released in June of 2015 it found the Israeli artist at his creative peak with three tracks that stretched the boundaries of traditional progressive house; melding psychedelic, deep and tech influences making for one of the year's most intriguing EPs. Now more than a year and a half later we see Suffused Music inviting Third Personality, Mario Puccio and Isaak Escamilla to reinterpret the track for 2017.
Third Personality is no stranger to Suffused Music having appeared on the label twice previously. The Bulgarian producer is perhaps best known for his Andrez alias where he has accumulated close to 200 releases since 2007. Third Personality was born in 2012 as an outlet for Andrez to explore different stylistic blueprints which he has done with great success. Releases on ICONYC and Balkan Connection South America have been sensational. Now making his much anticipated return to Suffused Music he provides an amazing interpretation of 'Fireworks'. Built around funk and drive the piece carries a great dance floor sensibility straight away. Pulsating bass, grating electronics and a dramatic air make for a great first act. The main break provides the most tension perhaps, with sonic decay building anticipation, leading to a tasteful drop where warm bass swells carry you home.
The second interpretation finds Mario Puccio making his label debut. Regarded as one of his country's top progressive house prospects, the Argentinean artist owns a discography with appearances on Alola Records, Sound Avenue and Soundteller Records. Now he brings his creative vision to Suffused Music with a cutting edge rework of 'Sunrise Over Ike'. Irresistibly groovy, it's chugging foundation moves forward in rippling waves. Electric synths fire through the framework before a hopeful pad initiates the main break. A soulful centrepiece, it's cross-cultural motifs and dulcet pianos shift the mood before a smooth build leads to a magical dance floor moment.
The release concludes with Isaak Escamilla returning to the label for his third appearance. The Mexican artist made his debut on the Lithuanian imprint in May of last year with a remix of 'Shornhelm' by Untold Stories. Now making his much anticipated return Isaak takes 'Syntax' into emotive territory with amazing results. Anchored by warm bass swells, the foundation flows through emotive chord changes while a sparkling arp and iridescent pads add further cosmic delight. Poignant chords bring a unique flair, particularly during the tracks centrepiece, before dispersing for a driving conclusion. An amazing interpretation from Isaak and perhaps the most heartfelt production of his career. It rounds out another can't miss release from Suffused Music full of variety and talent. Highly Recommended.
